When defeated, the foe drops 6 random items from the other disguised foes (imp teacup, yeti yurt, etc). Also, you get a random avatar. If you already have the avatar, you get "You also find a tattered killer x-ray costume, but you already have that one." Sanjuro (talk) 23:46, 25 November 2013 (PST)

I think that's up to six random items. Pretty sure I don't always get six, but I'll pay more attention now. Cristiona (talk) 20:58, 26 November 2013 (PST)

Yup. Up to. Just beat him and got 1 x-ray film, 1 zombites, 1 potatopotato, and an avatar. However, all three were "you got an item". So it's possibly 3 assured (I don't ever remember getting less than 3) and then 3 more with (possibly) decreasing odds. Cristiona (talk) 21:11, 26 November 2013 (PST)

Yesterday I got 6 and today only 4, all with the you got an item message. Maybe the number of drops is also random liked the item, but when it sorts 4 all 4 have a 100% chance? I'll try to work out the notes section on the template when I have the time to make these things clear. It'd help loads if people reported how many drops they get when facing it, spading this foe will either be a team effort or just not be done lol Patojonas 17:06, 27 November 2013 (PST)

Cris has noted that the haunted umbrella avatar is different from the foe image. I also got the haunted umbrella avatar today. Sanjuro (talk) 21:23, 28 November 2013 (PST)

I'm wondering if the drops aren't weird. I'm not maxing drops by any means, but I've got a full level smuggler and I'm getting pretty lame drops. Also, all of our recordings have been "got". All mine today were got even when they probably shouldn't have been. I wondering if it's taking something else into account; for instance, my Master Zyx kills have all been with combat items. Cristiona (talk) 20:44, 30 November 2013 (PST)
As far as I can remember, I have always gotten 6 item drops. Most fights, I used combat items exclusively: throwing stars (magnetar, black hole, etc.) and crystals for scrying out loud. Sometimes, I wanted to prolong the fight so I could read all of Master Zyx's hit and miss messages, so I used Justin's magic wand. Sanjuro (talk) 22:35, 30 November 2013 (PST)

I only got 6 drops on my 1st fight with it. 4 drops thereafter just like today, used blackhole, magnetar, disco demolition and 2 crystal for scrying out loud. It likely ignores drop modifiers. Patojonas 07:14, 1 December 2013 (PST)

Today I fought Master Zyx with more than 120 +FT, and got 5 drops (all with "got"). Sanjuro (talk) 22:16, 1 December 2013 (PST)

4 drops as before, with 100 FT in play, all with "got" as well.Patojonas 04:56, 2 December 2013 (PST)

Today I changed up my equipment so that I had all 26 letters of the alphabet in the equipment names. 5 drops, all "got". Sanjuro (talk) 23:41, 2 December 2013 (PST)

Which foes are you disguising to get here?

Here's what I hunt for each letter:

A/N ->Fiendish pit, 100% chance of A foe

B/O ->Mouths of Darkness, ~28% chance of O foe. (Cannonball tavern, 33%(?) chance of B foe, depending on which foes you have there.)

C/P ->Big Earl's Big Oil Derrick, ~75% chance of P foe.

D/Q ->Shiloh, ~35% chance of D foe. (Cannonball tavern, 33%(?) chance of D foe, depending on which foes you have there.)

E/R ->Porcelain Bay, 40% chance of R foe.

F/S ->CTC Instructors, 40% chance of S foe.

G/T ->Slums, 60% chance of G foe.

H/U ->Byzantine Interior, 75% chance of H/U foe.

I/V ->CTC Veterans, 50% chance of V foes.

J/W ->Ark of Anarchy, 25% chance of J foe.

K/X ->Byzantine Interior, 25% chance of K foe.

L/Y ->Zion's Tears building, 54% chance of L foe.

M/Z ->Zion's Tears building, ~34% chance of M foe.

These values take combat chances in consideration. Anyone got a better alternative for any of these? Patojonas 17:06, 27 November 2013 (PST)

I hit the Ark for H/U and Zion for M/Z. Cristiona (talk) 21:18, 27 November 2013 (PST)

Also, Big Earl's Big Oil Rig is 100% for C/P (disregarding combat mods).Cristiona (talk) 21:21, 27 November 2013 (PST)

I just replaced those you propose that had a better chance. Just noticed I forgot the hunter-killer in the byzantine interior, which makes it a 75% chance. This list helps :P Patojonas 06:26, 28 November 2013 (PST)

Depending on which Cannonball cycle you're on, it may be the place to go for B/O; Brawling Drunkard and Blasted Loader. Cristiona (talk) 20:32, 29 November 2013 (PST)
