I had about 24 whisper caches and all of the goblin event bags left over from last patch. I didn’t record hard numbers, but anecdotally, there did seem to be more ancestrals than previously. I spent about 3 inventories worth of obols on amulets, though, and got only a few legendaries, no ancestrals.
Most of the ancestrals I received did provide a codex upgrade, though most seemed to still roll low on the range.
Very small sample size, but that was my experience. Incidentally, I am looking for decent 1GA+ amulets and rings, and only one of those that dropped were usable. About half of my caches were rings or amulets, one of each, greater.
So overall it seems to be an improvement. Haven’t had time to do any killing content yet, but I’m hoping to do some helltides this week to see if that feels richer.
