Events that give obols should also give Forgotten Souls

You, there! Please help! We got separated!

Nope… lol. Waste of time.

At level 100, dungeon events are a complete waste of time. The loot isn’t any different than the many elites that walk nearby, so why stay for an event that takes a few minutes to complete?

RESOLUTION: Events would be worth the wait if they also rewarded us with Forgotten Souls. At the moment, the only real way to get Forgotten Souls is to participate in Helltides. These tides are so dang boring once you hit level 100. There is no threat, chests give you sacred gear most of the time, and… It just sucks.

Your about to get a bunch of ppl shoot this post and your ideas down in t minus…

I think they need to stop gating forgotten souls in helltidfes.

they have steel that drives people to helltides.

The whole point of forgotten souls from a design standpoint was to force players into helltides.

Steel can do that.

Let’s open up this base resource - you need this to roll yellows.

can agree on that. personally i skip them as well.

not sure if they should give forgotten souls tho. id rather tend to say no to that. its ok to have some materials that are rather limited and make you have to think about your rerolling choices.

Not like there are really hard to come by anyway ^^

really? I mean, it’s RNG, rerolling choices? LOL.

Gold is usually the resource that limits the rolling.

Nothings gated. You can get them from salvaging. Ive barely done ht this season and im sitting on over 1k.

Even if you do a 15 min ht your going to get 25-50. Ht is also up 55 min for every hour.

Boom!! told ya like clockwork

Dude it’s gated, functionally speaking, the salvage rate for FS is very low, maybe 1-2 an hour depending on your legendary drops.

You play this game right?

I stopped doing helltides for ages!

i think the issue for many people is that the just reroll any item basically. I really didnt bother a lot with helltides myself this season for example. I had some problems with forgotten souls when i was fresh in wt4, but they came in pretty fast by just salvaging.

If your only getting 1-2 an hour your likely not clearing valut 70+. Each vault is 3-5 min picking stuff up and salavging.

Or your just standing in town doing nothing and/or just not picking up loot.

Unless they changed salvage rates this season / patch - I just started playing again this week, you NEVER got enough from regular play.

This is like saying - Uber uniques are available as a regular drop, go get them outside of duriel now.

Yeah, no.

Make a spreadsheet, track it. It’s bad.

i just had a fast check. im on 400~ FS right now. I think the amount of helltides i did this season are below 20 as i was usually to be found in vaults XD

And! 5% uber drop. Plus 20 character auto type correction.

@Phatty, I do think that patch where they said 10% salvage rate is finally true.

(But the problem is the part where they originally buffed drop rate in dungeons is NOT true currently…so…who knows if its enough)

Also, I did notice your horse was dropping ubers everytime you galloped, so I picked a few up to use. Hope you don’t mind.

I loaded the sprint - fart out ubers mod.

Well how many legendaries do you find an hour, unless you are farming duriel or a boss, regular game play through NM’s and stuff like that net’s maybe 4-5 a run?

So if you 6 nm’s an hour - maybe 3 on average?

You could probably speed them faster and get some done in 5 minutes, but you gotta spend time going through loot, (no loot filter).

Functionally speaking, numbers wise, I think it’s still going to be averaging 2 an hour overall including dead time from moving / and just doing random ARPG stuff.

More like 10-15 in vaults if noy more.

If someone is averaging this they are just bad at the game or running wt1 at lv 70.

I’m on eternal, not sure what the vault drop rate is on legs.

I jsutn did an hour of whispers, I’ll salvage my legs right now

I have 12 legs. I’ll update this post or post how many I get.

But doesnt lv 925 gear drop in nm70+ if so it should be around the same. Nm takes 3-5 min to complete which should net 5-10 legendaries.

Vaults have chests at the end which includes like 10 legendaries

I had to keep 1 of the legs for an aspect I was chasing, but out of the 11, I got 1 forgotten soul.

So, appears 10% ish.

BTW now i have exactly 666 forgotten souls LOL.

I have over 5k coiling ward and abstruse sigil.

I think everyone here can see their relative drop rate from legendary matts.

I generally think the utility of limiting forgotten souls is just no longer needed since we have steel in helltides.
