2x Drop Events have no effect on ETC items anymore.
I remember that in May of 2007, when there was the first major 2x EXP/Drop events, I was constantly getting mesos and orange mushroom caps from each orange mushroom. Most monsters were like that as well, where they would drop both mesos and etc items. It was uncommon to just get mesos or just get the cap, and it was almost an impossibility to get nothing (I'm talking once or twice in that 2 hour grinding period for my islander at 2x).
Now, there are no increased ETC drops. They're the same as always. :/
Also, I only managed to get 3 equips today. I've gotten as many as 8 in 2 hours, and occasionally, it hasn't even been 2x Drop. It is random, even with the 2x. :X
