I highly doubt the imp (or any summon for that matter) influences drop rates.
A summoning stone summons an 'ally'. Only party members affect drops. However as the wiki post on summoning stones states "In extremely rare circumstances, drops can be assigned to a summoned creature and cannot be picked up by anyone. However, once the item loses its assignment, anyone will be able to grab it."
So maybe there's something to this. I'm gonna keep track of my next few charr runs and log drops (with and without imp) and let you know.

It's possible that it could indirectly affect drop rates due to the faster kill times triggering the anti-farm code

What i find interesting is *you* supposedly can't pick up *your* summons drops.
Wasn't there a similar rare bug with minis long ago, but a drop assigned to the mini the owner could pick up?
That difference makes me believe the "minis help drops" more too, especially if for some reason imp hurts drop rates.
It's probably mini = hidden party member vs imp = ally... whatever differences that actually makes.

Interesting stuff. It seams after I zone and a 11 sec's past I can kill as fast as I want. I run 2x fast casting magic/death builds at same time and get great Regent Valley drops. All I do is pick up items and every now and then cast a summon. Cant run fast anuf. But I have not tried it with cup cake's.
I hear the same thing from some ppl in guild several months back(ie. 14 months) that the summoning stone will act as an ally and take drops.. But This was a statement for post lvl 20 character.
Fyi. I have a mouse in each hand. One instants in vmwear so I can a singe the usb to that vm. Game play is probley similar to mirror boxing.

It is defiantly is challenging. I use a Logitech 600 in my right hand and a Logitech 300 in left hand. I have foot pedal's that will make it easier for my alt acct's to follow my main acct. I use vmwear player to rune each instance of gw. Vmwear lets you dedicate usb's to that vm. So I just setup the peddle's to the follow command. Right now I'm trying to get diablo 2 reserected to work but it cant run on vmwear only hyper-v. Thing is about hyper-v is I cant get it to let me dedicate usb to it so I can't play 2 games at same time

I managed to hold a pretty high amount for my alliance that way for a while, never quite held a town tho haha
