Did you ask /1?
I got my water the first try because of this. Had 3 people try to give me theirs.
The bosses spawn more than 5 times when they are up. Doesn’t require all day at all.
I gave away a water too. So it’s not like others weren’t helping. The more this dragged on, the more people traded them away.
Nobody was getting the drops when I was doing it the first week…I just waited my time out for next Storm lord to come up…
Its not 100% drop. I had to kill the fire dude 7 times before he finally gave it up.
You guys had 2 weeks but who knows maybe they’ll do some crazy increased spawn thing for the last few hours.
I know you’re really just here trying to rile people up, but it’s like you’re not listening to people say the drop rate is low and the appearance rate is low too. I’ve been checking in almost every spawn (unfortunately I can’t check when I’m driving around for 8 hours or working) and it has not spawned.
I killed it a few times awhile back and it didn’t drop, I wasn’t really noticing the lack of storm spawns until the deadline got closer.
It’s just a poorly designed event.
The trinket isn’t for people with lives. It’s for those of us who prioritize WoW over the physical world.
If you aren’t one of us, you don’t deserve the trinket.
If you only have one character, you have no use for heirlooms.
Your jobs, kids, and mortgage are your trinkets. Enjoy them and stop crying because you have different priorities than us.
For sure. And late at night, when no one was around. I’d use LFG and get a full raid group going.
I’m sure most didn’t farm like I did though. I literally went from one to another, hitting them as they spawned.
Me not caring because I’m foggy from a cold/flu is not me riling up people.
Quite the opposite : I’m trying to get people to understand it doesn’t matter. You need 2 trinkets, there’s already over a dozen Heirloom trinkets anyway.
If you didn’t make the time for this one, it won’t change a thing and you’ll have forgotten about it in 6 hours.
I mean, it’s a game, nothing matters. But I like to collect achievements/promo items.
I’ll live. I’ve missed other promotions in the past, but I’d prefer not to because of some RNG on top of RNG.
There is clearly something wrong with the event and they’re just not doing anything to fix it. I get that launch is more important, but still.
But especially not this. This is like Mount number #701 when you use 3.
Not everyone has the same schedule. Also it’s still rng. I got lucky, but even then the last one eluded me for like a week. But this whole trinket idea was so badly implemented it’s not even funny. Again these developers show us they have zero idea what bad luck protection even means.
Been fairly regular myself but also leveling in case I hate my spec at launch. Observably storm was a lot less frequent than fire and earth especially earth which spawns all the time. Not saying you have to BE there but just occasionally check the world map. Tells the story.
Like so many others storm is the one I was missing.
unless people didnt know you can just go through group finder to kill the bosses for the drop, there is not really rng involved.
dont tell me you waited 20 mins for boss to respawn instead of going through group funder to jump layers…
I’m scrolling custom right now and there is nothing but a request for storm. If any time it would be right now.
I waited for each boss, but I also got the item first try everytime. I got unlucky in that the one boss I needed was never up. Meaning that I think I needed fire and it was never up when I had time to play.
But I was aware of hoping layers. I used it to get the first boss kill quest to get more of the event currency.
But going back to it the item should’ve cost like 100 each and been anti rng. Like you can get them off of the boss, but if you get unlucky use the event currency. But again these developers aren’t very smart.
But I’m not going to blame someone with bad luck. Hell I ran the event dungeon 3 times and got zero loot outside of the quest weapon. So as far as rng loot goes it can go die in a fire.
People need to stop with the lazy comments but I know they won’t.
Earth and Fire being up the majority of the time has nothing to do with people being lazy.
Putting in and not fixing a broken invasion has nothing to do with people being lazy.
Yes, these people should not wait until the last minute to do something but on the same token, Blizzard should have fixed this crap when it was reported on the test realm. If the invasions were function properly, it wouldn’t have matter if they waited.
Bragging that you got your trinket early because you know how shady/lazy Blizzard can be is nothing to brag about.
How is waiting until the last minute when the past 4 days not one storm>?
If 150 location RNG chance now having a n apparent 25% chance to drop is being lazy (like a 0.1% chance to happen), then I feel sorry that you look at life that way.
I’m sure this has been said already but an easy fix would have been to just put all 4 on the vendor for say 500 marks each. You would likely get most of them just from killing bosses but if you missed one or 2 you could just farm the marks and be good. Still takes time but at least not 100% random.
I got my trinket during the first few days but I just got the achievement this morning. I forgot that you had to kill all 4 on one character. I was too busy jumping alts to go for the trinket. Luckily one of my characters only needed the earth one and it was up.
