It seems like the original question was asking how to improve the drop rate of the event creature banishing item (this month Misty Horn). No one really talked about how to increase the drop rate of the banishing item? Has anyone tried out various things that might increase/decrease the rate, specifically of the item that will give more points per play of the event room? I have asked this question elsewhere too and no one ever seems to answer it.

I have noticed that hoarding the special event creature banishers seems to decrease the rate they drop at, from the usual 50% drop rate to a rate of about 25%. I have also noticed, and last month even kept a chart to be certain, that using tools seemed to increase drop rate to nearly 75%, however that gets expensive. This month I basically never used tools and drop rate was about 66%,  two of every three times exploring the event location would result in a banisher. This month I spent special event access passes as soon as I had enough passes to go once, which meant I went other locations in between each visit to the special event room. I believe this might account for my higher drop rate this month.

Has anyone else payed attention to what things increase or decrease drop rate of special event creature banishers? Points earned from banishing determine position on the leaderboard, so increasing the drop rate means fewer event access passes needed for a high placement on the leaderboard.
