Have drops rates sneakely been changed

So ever since boss rush was released i feel drop rates have been altered, ive been heavily farming the fallen order for some shoulders and hardly ever do i get any gear, and when i do its rare. Today i opened 7 diamond chest and i was given 6 rare and 1 epic (3 of the rares were in 1 chest). Now looking at season 3.3 dungeons i calculate ive done 387 dungeons, from all of these ive recieved 4 ledgendary gear pieces and 0 mythic, many playstation players are also noticing horrible drop ever since the update

And ultimate caches are just a joke as well and this season has also left out spells out of the caches as well and they still drop mostly rare gear.

I have been farming dungeons since the event rework and I haven’t noticed significantly different drops. The “open 8 diamond chests and find nothing” scenario seems sadly common (I no longer have any expectations when opening chests to avoid frustration), but with time the mythic drops arrive. The issue I see with mythic drops is that the rate is so low that it is not uncommon to suffer from long streaks of no drops at all for weeks even with intensive farming.

Another one here that is seriously miffed over the relatively recent drop rates, though I noticed a significant change at the moment the Festival of the Arcane went live.

It has got to the point where my motivation for farming chests has dropped to an all time low as I’ve never seen such a lack of gear and spells in lvl 100 chests.

Also on Playstation btw.

The game is a joke!!! The drop rates are disgraceful. I used play tge game a lot and also purchased all passes + VIP + offers. I now only play the game a little bit on some days and have stopped spending as I felt it was pointless.

Why spend money and play a lot to end up getting nothing.

It used to be really nice to get Mythic items even when i have everything but now i can’t even get a Diamond chest let alone a Mythic item.

They are just greedy and want all players to spend spend spend but give nothing back in return if you want my advice don’t spend any money so that way you won’t be disappointed.

Spell pages are in the new caches, I’ve gotten them (both spells).

50 ultimate caches for me and none.

No drop rate data or percentage chance data has been changed. The only things introduced since the new and updated events were the new chests levels (mentioned in the patch notes) and changing Seasonal items to always drop variant gear.

Should there be any instance where this data is changed, I would expect that information to get passed onto me so I can update everyone.

I also passed this thread onto confirm in case any change was made that possibly unintentionally changed drop rate chance, and we have not found any data so far to be any different to it was prior to the new events releasing.

Ouch. I have hit streaks like that. I had around a month with no mythic drops, then two in one chest. One of our Kingdom members had a streak so bad and long I thought she had to be bugged.

I’ve been doing hunts working on casting my ultimate spells with alts the 1000 times, etc, and I seem to be getting more mythics than I normally have.

I hope your bad streak ends with a nice Immortal Mythic!

Just had one of those myself. Was fishing for a Legendary seasonal drop during the recent Coin Collector adventure, and hit an absurdly bad RNG streak, where it took me over 12k ancient coins to pull a single copy at a 5% drop rate. Along the way there, I pulled a Mythic gear drop, two Mythic relics, and three (!!!) seasonal Legendary pets, all at much rarer odds to pull.

I’ve also had the exact inverse happen and pull a multiple copies of a Legendary seasonal drop in a single multi-pull.

RNG can be really streaky one way or the other sometimes. Sucks extra hard when you happen to experience extreme (3+ SD/sigma) bad RNG streaks. Eventually, it happens to everyone. :frowning_face:

I’ve noticed this too, ruby & diamond chests have been terrible. I’d say 20% of ruby dungeon chests drop no dungeon loot, just gold, food, ore etc.

This is way more frequent since the time boss rush was released.

I confirm they above message, I was as well heavily farming Fallen, and most of the chests at any level had around zero low level gear items.
I did not see this for any other dungeon but really just the fallen one, season 1.4.
@Jeto is it possible to investigate, with specific focus on this season? Seems off to me that someone else has exactly the same observation.
