We have decided on drop rates lower than 0.5, excluding banners(except possibly for rare mobs?). Also for relatively low chance drops from uncommon or rare mobs.

Now shall I bring attention to the pirates? I say every item except furniture and banners from them can be considered as rare, since the drop chances are quite atrocious. I agree with this mostly; what I don't agree with is - all - Pirate items except furniture and banners. The Cutlass is a rather common drop since you can get about 1-3 minimum from just one invasion. I wouldn't count it, but meh. =v=
