well, ive been questing for awhile and some ppl say a lot fo things about drop rate >.> after lot of tries i came to this conclusion:
i believe the things that go above your head when u kill someone (headshot, fantastic and wonderfull)also happens in quests but theyre invisible, what i believe its that to get a large, u must get all those things when u kill the miniboss.
it may be a coincidence but its worth trying ^_^

Maybe you need to kill him by a headshot to the necklance, instead.

I'm pretty sure the drop rate is flat 6% with nothing special about it. Plus, that would be so much more work to code that into it.

A lot of people mention things like "Headshots improve droprate" or "Killing with melee improves droprate" but I've never seen any conclusive evidence to suggest this is true, other than coincidence. I don't want to sound like I'm doubting people specifically who believe this, but rather, I just wonder if anyone has proof or evidence that this is true, and not just a coincidence from people who've been questing.

i am afraid to tell you 10 is not big sample to conclude. How about try 50 quests and see if headshot on shamans gives higher boss drop late.
To test anything like this you need a big sample size and 10 just doesn't seem enough.
I honestly don't think headshot gives higher % of getting necklaces or large skulls.

I do believe you get bounty for killing skeletons, but the drop rate doesn't change from that.
They can drop Health, Armor, Ammo, Chest, or nothing. I see it as a 1/5 chances 20% chance to find and 80% chance you don't.
What makes it difficult is the fact that there are not very many of them to kill.
I've heard people saying shooting in head, killing with melee wep will increase chances, but I doubt it really matters how it dies.
If anyone has anymore ideas, please post it :)
EDIT: I would like to know why some people are saying that chances are 6%.

ya but think the game does recognize when u kill some1 with a headshot, and when u kill them fast.... there may be something that link them together
I heard that using your sword alot makes them drop better... I tried it with a team and we got a crimson necklaces in 3 out of 5 quests by using only our swords.
