I believe there is unique drops during invasions. I think these tend towards super high qualtity materials for crafting (thus making super high quality items).

I don't think there are any actual item drops of any sort in SoR. So that little suckling yubo won't suddenly drop a two handed sword when you kill it ;)

I may be wrong.

I cant remember which dev chat I saw it on but they did hint that there would be special items later (this was in beta so dont know when later is) As to what exactly they ment by special items we'll just have to wait and see. :)

This REALLY depends on what you read and how you interpret it...

Crafters will make ALL the best gear... that has been stated repeatedly and throughout the layers of 2 years worth of interviews/previews. It has also been stated that "hero" items are out there, be they accessories or useable items has been less explained. Also it appears special materials may be available either thru missions or named mobs... these materials are either uber mats like "Kitin Larva" or maybe the mentioned but yet to be discovered "KamiBast"...

One of the grandest things about this game is WE homins will have to find this stuff out... There is a game to discover without the typical pointers to all that we are missing... there is so much innuendo in some of the ways history and official storylines mention certain past events... even after having played/tested for months I am wicked curious...

I'm attaching a small screenshot of an invasion during the Open Beta. I'm not even sure the picture will show up as this is a restricted, public forum but let's see.

If the attachment doesn't work: http://www.ryzom.com/?page=features_invasions

I pulled it from the main Saga of Ryzom website.

The invasions are very real and wicked fun. :)
