Only 2x cards give 2x meso quantity, other 2x types give 2x droprate.
So from 50% to 100%, then... to 100%. Drop cards are really 4x mesos in the first place because they increase both quantity and droprate.

I normally get 1~2 pieces of time in an hour; on 4x drop I get like 4~6. It's definitely an improvement.

The problem is that because an item cannot be dropped twice from the same monster at some point 2x drop starts being less effective, especially on common drops like mesos and etc items (not talking about doubling the meso amount)

4x drop is very visibly effective on maps like Bubblings though if you can move through it at high speed killing things.
You can see a marked difference between the drops that accumulate at 1x, 2x and 4x speeds.
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.
