500 Paragon, 0 Ethereal Drops

Exactly what the title says, I have seen 0 ethereal drops for my season DH after 545 paragon levels so far. Whats going on?

You’ve been unlucky.
Bad luck is not a bug.

I saw an article that says a certain type of lady bug causes bad luck, in which case bad luck actually might be a bug…teehee

Looking at your profile the weapon on your season DH is invisible, which indicates that it is holding an ethereal weapon…
And it has 800 paragon points.

I didnt get any ethereals until after I hit paragon 600, ive gotten 7 since then Im like 667 paragon. On the other hand the ramaladni’s giftt hasnt dropped rng go figure.

Ethereals are random, just like everything else - I got my first one before I even hit level 50, but I’m only P120-ish now so it’s no surprise I haven’t found a second one yet.

I’m usually bitten by some kind of RNG myself.

For now I’m playing vanilla-like, except I got an ethereal wand - sometime about character level 25, very early after the 2nd boss of Act I.

Hopefully it won’t end up being too premature, although I’m ready with the argument that late drops mean gradual progression. It’s really cool to get 98% powerful in the first hour of hitting max level, but it also means there’s little to strive for.

On the other hand, I’ve gotten 3 primals last season overall - 2 on a wizard achieving p750, 1 on the crusader at p600. None of them equipped.
