DDO Bonus Days!

[Cordovan]

DDO Bonus Days brings you +2 Loot, now through September 29th!

Is this to make up for the epic whellon and stormhorn chains only giving heroic loot as end rewards?

Have stat tome drops been unnerfed? It would be nice to know whether there is any point buying loot gems from the store.

Imagine I have dropped several Supply Chests from Challenges under the effect of +2 Loot Jewel, I logged out witouth opening them, THEN this +2 loot event came - will I get +4 loot bonus on these chests?

In simplier words: does this event affect actual 'open' of Supply Chest or its 'drop'?

I'm doing some fairly intensive testing of loot levels this weekend. I'm convinced there is something wonky with the Stormhorns loot tables in addition to the tome nerf. I'll post a detailed thread when testing is complete, but I'm positive it will prove something is wrong with either the Stormhorns (and possibly Wheloon) on epic or that everything else is messed up and giving greater rewards than intended. I'd love some dev insight into both the possible loot cap and tome nerf, but they seem to want to remain silent.

I'm curious to see the results of your tests. I didn't try to collect any data but last time we had a loot boost it seemed like I was getting lower level rewards in stormhorns than in whellon with +2 loot +1 gem and +1 chest blesser.

No, it is to compensate that random generated loot is far more powerful than most of named items.
