AlphaCarno Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 After testing it with multiple drops I've come to the conclusion that it doesn't precisely boost loot quality, It rerolls the drop with a higher chance of something better. In one case it turned a trike saddle into hide gloves, another it turned a 277 compound into a 232 sniper rifle(both bps). I even once had a 247 asc club bp into premade mc fur. Anyone else seen this same type of trend? Rerolls instead of quality boost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaCarno Posted June 4, 2017 Author Share Posted June 4, 2017 I just tried a new drop, it turned a 58 jm tapejara saddle bp into a 43 apprentice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulta Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Sadly I'll be missing out on the event due to just not having bees (or getting enough honey). It's nearly over now too, but glad to see I didn't miss out on much? I was hoping for better though...that sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralPatton Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Reroll is how the leopluerodon buff works. Best to check the drop first with another toon to see if you want to reroll. Would be nice if we could craft last years full cake for XP buff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USADave85 Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I checked three drops and then had a friend come in with the re-roll. Two got worse and one bugged out/disappeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kayin Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I've gotten empty boxes and crop plots. The cake is a lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penfold0110 Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 We spent a day running loot from red drops. and it just looked to me everything was worse! We haven't run drops like this for a while but we found nothing that was an improvement on what we had. all felt a bit like a waste of my time.

AndrewLB Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I agree. The cake is a lie. It did absolutely nothing beneficial to the loot from my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made this same mistake, the birthday cake was last year's event. This year's cake is the anniversary cake, just Google "Anniversary cake ark" and you will find what you're looking for.

DeningWei Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Yep, I'm pretty sure that's how it works. So if you see something you like in the loot box you should probably grab that instead of rerolling with cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mugger Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Yea I used 40 cakes only good thing I got was a 121 armor plesio platform saddle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kushoholic Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Did your cakes dissapeared too? I could have sworn there were 60 in the fridge and now 0. If its just temporary why was there a spoiltimer with 200days on it in fridge and not 2 days or something. So instead of searching crates i cooked all cakes for nothing now. Awesome job once again.
