I’ve killed ~50+ raid bosses and haven’t seen one yet combined with well over 20x m+ and a dozen or so “super rares” + farming dirt.
Haven’t seen a single one. Is there something that makes bottled essence drop rate tied to ilvl? Higher ilvl toons seem to get far fewer drops?
I’ve been hard carrying normal/LFR/heroic groups each week just to farm bottled essence and have yet to see one?
hahahahahahahahahaha
You’re joking right?
Is it only one drop chance per boss irrelevant of difficulty? I had not heard that confirmed?
I received one from LFR but can’t speak for heroic.
Pretty sure it still works out to one essence about every 2 weeks. I’m sure you’re eager to get another one, but it’s not like you should expect to see them very often. I had one drop from a rare on Saturday, and I’ve had nothing else since. But I don’t feel it’s bugged, it’s just stupidly rare.
I just got one from Kinook. He must have been very satisfied with the way I stirred the soup.
That’s not how it works. There’s just a % chance from different forms of content. I think the raid/m+ drop rate is bugged though and/or secretly tied to something else behind the scenes.
We have no confirmation or explanation of “how it works” other than doing content, and that its supposed to be rare. If you feel its bugged, this is the wrong forum to be posting in.
Good luck.
I killed a rare, regular not “super”, just after the reset this week and got a bottled essence. Didn’t do any grinding for them, just played the game regularly.
I think that is exactly how it works. Do you have any proof they are incorrect?
They’re 417 ilevel and 6/8 Mythic. Have you seen some of the players in LFR and Normal? I joined one where people were chasing me around the map on Council and Dathea with the blue circles. People not lining up the knockbacks on Rasz and missing the platforms by 10 yards despite them being the size of a football stadium. People actively casting spells but doing 15k dps.
No…I really don’t think this person is joking.
all that may be true but one person is not killing those bosses.
That and your experiences in LFR are unfortunate. I don’t do anything beyond LFR these days, but have not had the same experience as you (or the OP).
I’m not even talking about the players in LFR. That’s an entirely different story.
But yes, I can solo heal 25-30 man raids in LFR/Normal pretty easily so I would say that is “carrying” xD
Would just like to understand how I can clear ~30 raid bosses a week and not receive a single spark. On top of 10+ dungeons weekly + filling with world rares/etc in between.
I’ve been doing the 30 minute rare spawn tour for several days now and I’ve gotten one. None since though. Strange system. Would be nice if we could dismantle our crafted gear to retrieve the spark or something. Needs change.
This would combat the also ridiculous argument that everyone would be decked out in 418 crated gear if they were less rare. Anyone with any critical thinking would know that’s not even true, but how about that for a compromise.
I’ve received 2 so far from M+.
Low drop chance.
You’re just unlucky.
Yah but it shouldn’t be sub 1% low?? I’m even at that 100+ mark and that feels ridiculous lol
The people that would be “decked out” in 418s would deserve it since they would have ran plenty of 16+s, gotten enough Primal Chaos, collected all the necessary mats, and (most likely) contribute to public/private orders. The drop rate is just stupid and frustrating. I don’t see how any player could fathom that this level of infrequency is good for the game.
