Blizzard! Increase Vinyl: Triumph of Gnomeregan Drop Rate Please!

Please increase Vinyl: Triumph of Gnomerega drop rate please!!! I have been farming this for days on my characters and I still couldn’t get it. This is an item that is required for a world of warcraft achievement “Mecha-done”. The drop rate for this item is just ridiculously low and there is no reason to be this low. I will explain how ridiculous the drop rate below.

According to wowhead, there are only 3 confirmed methods to get this item:

  1. Killing a rare mob called “Steel Singer Freza”, which has a 0.5% chance of dropping this vinyl
  2. Doing Reclamation Rig Hard Mode, which drops the “Irradiated Box of Assorted Parts” and has a 1% chance of dropping this vinyl
  3. Doing Reclamation Rig Normal Mode, which drops the “Box of Assorted Parts” and has an extremely low drop chance for this vinyl, probably less than 1%

Not to mention that this Reclamation Rig event requires 3000 spare parts and it doesn’t spawn every day, it is rng-based and with patch 8.3 (new content) out, it is really hard to group up for this event as everyone is too busy playing the new content.

So basically in order to obtain this vinyl, which a large portion of the wow player base is missing, you have to wait for an rng spawn for this event, and pray for the less than or equal to 1% drop chance for this vinyl (rng). Isn’t this ridiculous? Blizzard?

I mean Blizzard did create the Bad Luck Protection system during Legion to prevent rng from ruining the game experience for players and removed titanforged, which is also an rng based system. Moreover, Blizzard added the dubloon loot boxes for Island Expedition because players have been complaining about the items are way too rng based. I understand that Blizzard you guys are trying to remove as much rng as possible from the game so that more players can enjoy the game better. This item (Vinyl: Triumph of Gnomerega) has such a low drop rate and the ways to obtain it are limited and this has been affecting not only my gaming experience but also the majority of the players, so Blizzard please if the developers in Blizzard can see this post, please increase the drop rate for this vinyl so that more players can move on and do more 8.3 content, instead of wasting their time doing some old contents (mechagon).

wow… i see your dedicated on getting that vinyl?

I feel for you pal :confused: I too did a thread about this drop that is awful :

All I can do is wish you the best of luck :crossed_fingers:

Yes please. I honestly don’t understand the point of these incredibly low drop rate items. Especially when they’re required for the meta achievement. Does anyone actually find it fun to farm them?

I can somewhat understand the low drop rate for the fishing achievement items, as those are meant to be rare. But for the items required for the main meta of the zone? I fail to see the point. This item should have had its drop chance increased long ago in my opinion.
