As someone who has been grinding for runewords for a while now do not fall for the trap of 3 runes into 1 random. The chances are extremely low might as well at that point trade with people or keep grinding and praying to rng for those unique runewords if you’re trying to solo grind them.
I got a lot of good one because I saving runes for 5 mythic which = 15 runes type.
If you only aim one or two mythic then your chance to get what you want is very low. Trading will be better option. I regret trade too many runes, as I run out of sparks now after crafted 25 Mythics. With a ton of runes left and don’t know what to do with them. So lazy to sell runes as D.trade site is not stable currently.
yes, i like undercity, too. just want all the options, because i like making alts. also, think we should have a choice to do what we like and want to do whether it’s undercity or rep track…

The trouble here is that the keep adjusting the Boss Mythic drop rate every patch, without advertising it. Early this season they were dropping OK. Later I had a period where I did 70 Duriel/Andy runs and zero mythics. Then a week or so later I did 60 runs and litteraly 1 mythic every 12 runs. The did 30 last night and 40 this morning for one mythic drop, I don’t think this can be explained away as RNG.
I also suspect they have adjusted the drop rates on specific Ubers based on the class being played. I have not had a Grandfather, Doombringer or Spear of Lysander out of the 15 or so drops. Playing SB for all my Duriel and Andy runs I have had 4 Shattered Vows, 2 Neskam the Heralds, 3 Heir of Perditions, 2 Andys, 2 Shouds and 1 Shako, all of which are usable by SB builds. I crafted my Tyriel’s for my Sorc.

There you go. Your answer why they did this change. You had your fun for 70 bucks already. Now it is time to pay more or get lost 
Though Obviously I have VoH, I 100% agree with you OP.
this can absolutely be explained with rng. you know that sample size basically means nothing right?
I think right now the assumed drop chance is 5%ish. you can easily have streaks of 100 and more boss runs without seeing one.
At the start of the season it was implied that it was still 2% per drop for Durel/Andy, which is about 1 drop every 12 runs. Yes 100 runs with no drop is possible but we see to many people talking about it, which makes me feel they keeep changing the drop rate based on what they have seen to that point.
I just calculated my drop rate after 1200 bosses. I have more than that but I lost track so just used it. It was 1.08%
And thats for 5 drops per boss run so about 0.3% per drop. Last season it was 2% per drop, and it was implied that that was the rate at the begining of this season for Duriel/Andy but reduced for the others.
Well i got 13 mythics out of 1200 kills. I actually messed that up because one of those mythics was crafted so I only got 12 mythics out of 1200 kills. So the adjusted fixed percent was actually 1.0%. Technically its actually less than that because I know I have more than 1200 kills. Just dont know exactly so Ill roll with that.
Its hard to say the exact % because Duriel and Andy supposedly have a higher drop chance. While I did do a lot of kills on both of them, not all 1200 kills were on them. Its spread over all the bosses. I didn’t do a count of how many of each so no idea.
just 1 spark with runes is a ton easier, so no dont do this.
Out of all the mythics I got this season only one came from Zir and 1 from Undercity, all the rest from Duriel/Andy .
I’ve gotten them across mostly Varshan and Zir. I only got a couple from Duriel and none from Andy. I didn’t get any of the tributes to drop for UC until the christmas tree gave me some. So I have 4 runs in there and zero mythics from it.

we can of course share our private experiences, im just also pointing out that they dont give us values we can rely on.
Without wanting to offend you, i doubt you documented 1200 Boss kills.
But yea, while we are talking about personal experiences, and i for sure didnt document my amount of boss kills, id say im at like 400 boss kills over the season and ended up with 18 mythics.
Either way, mythics are anything, but rare anymore.
Does that mean that only people with the expansion should have access to runes? It sounds a lot like pay-to-win to me.
expansion add new content, such content adds stuff that gives you access to items that you dont get in previous contents.
Thats not p2w, thats how expansions work, and d4 was clearly announced as a game to have yearly expansions.
Yes its offensive to me. You are calling me a liar. I have no reason to lie. Bossing is what I focused on this season except for like the last week I played which I ran pits. I killed in the begging 25-50 bosses a day. Then I raised that to 50-100 per day. It was not hard to document when you use numbers like this. I say over 1200 because I would always have a few left over materials that I picked up from running obals and stuff so I would hit a couple extra. This is literally all I did was farm materials till I had x amount of boss runs and then blow them all.
yes, if you don’t have expansion, you can’t craft the exact mythic unique you want. you get what rng gives you for 2 sparks. no other options. ptw?
if me voicing a doubt offends you leads to you hearing me say “you are a liar”, i cant help you. I think its fairly normal to doubt someone ran 1200 documented Boss runs.
Either way, we are still talking about personal experiences.
