Thanks a lot, Blizzard. Now I am positive you completely despise cosmetics farmers, and I can always count on you to take something that’s already awful and make it even worse. It’s actually remarkable.
Droprate does not make sense, either bugged or Gated behind renown 20 where it is much higher. Its just a rare mob theese are supposed to be 1%-5% chance. And blizzard is no longer making super low drops, they buffed Pandaria world bosses to 1% too. So there is no way something is not off about this.
I almost sure it only dropped at the first kill of the day until today. Now it will only drop in the first kill of 5-day cycle of areas (with increased chance so it will be the same as before probability-per-day-wise).
That’s why I’m very frustrated about people saying “I have 300 kills and no drop” on the 3rd week, when they technically only looted ~17 times (21 days of the patch minus ~4 days when the rare was inactive).
Well, that is multiplied by every character that has looted. So in my case, with 23 characters at 61-70, in 17 days I could get 391 attempts. I’m currently at around 120 or so, but that’s beside the point. The point is that it’s definitely possible that some people have over 300 kills.
Yes, and by the time they do increase it there will be no one in the zone and no groups in LFG. You’ll have to camp it and waste just as much time or even more. Still have nightmares about Soundless…
There’s no possible win here. Not that it matters to them, but for the first time in all these years I’m considering quitting for good when my sub expires. There are way too many farms that take absurd amounts of time due to ridiculous RNG and let’s face it - if it didn’t stop by now, it never will.
