Radiant Echoes events are no longer dropping any loot. Is this your fix?

Yesterday, doing the events gave items and currency. Today, only minimal currency for individual mob kills, but 0 item drops for bosses or events tasks. Is this what we were expecting for the fix?

I can’t tell the difference between broken, temporarily disabled, or working as intended anymore.

The incoming changes mentioned by the blue post has yet to hit the live servers just yet, as they are testing it out on the PTR and to be deployed a bit later on today.

I mean the event is every 1.5hours… Surely you havent done enough to differentiate between bad rng and drops being off…,

Prolly just another bug, you aren’t used to this yet?

I get it.

I was really trying to keep a more positive outlook on this and work around report bugs I encountered. It’s getting harder to keep from being jaded by the layers of frustration.

Before the event even finished, the chat was filled with players saying things like:
“blizz hates their customers” and “incoming no lootz”

It’s high frustration and low morale in a limited time event that people were really looking forward to. It’s a fear that this is an indication of what is to come in expansion.

On the positive side, the changes that should have just been the event from the start will be implemented before the weekend. I was fully expecting them not to change anything until next week so it’s nice that we’re getting a fix beforehand.

The fix never should have been needed, though. They’ve done enough limited time events that they should have a file somewhere that has a list of event dos and don’ts.

I noticed the same thing. I was getting plenty of loot yesterday, and today? I have gotten one weapon, that is it.

That’s not what I’m seeing (4h later)… the quest is at 3K currency (up from 1.5K) and the bosses drop loot and currency (with currency from boss drops also doubled). Plus the boss can be killed repeatedly during the 60 min window that the event is up in a particular zone (just have to drive the bar from 100% to 0% and can kill the boss multiple times; bar goes back to 100% after each kill and must be driven back down to 0%).

Yes, I just went back in and it seems to be fixed for chars that have not done the quests yet. The ones that did it before are still out of luck, but it seems like it will be easier to accrue it now.

The quest at the time was 1.5, which it did award. The bosses and event dropped no armor/weapons, and no memories.

I ran this event almost non-stop for a day and a half. I noticed the lack in drops today myself. It’s not an isolated incident.

i just spent the last 2 hours doing two different zones, and got plenty of loot, i think about 10 pieces. Not sure why its not working for you guys :frowning:

Okay so wasn’t just me. Noticed the bosses have much more HP now and also drop less loot.

I just did dragonblight and got about 8 drops in about 40ish mins…so…

It is deployed now and people on the PTR were saying no loot as well. I got one piece of gear in 4 boss kills and many side events.

Must just be bad luck. I got about ten pieces in four hours of play, and you still get that 493 piece for the first one of the week

four hours of play is like 16 boss events or 50 side events - 10 pieces isn’t all that much.

I literally just got a drop 20 minutes ago in dustwallow lol. This reactionary ragebait is really annoying, aside from the lag here and there I actually think the event is decent… Hot take i guess

This was a BUG, that was FIXED. The only rewards given were the 1-10 residual memories per kill, and the 1.5k residual memories for the quest.

No armor, weapons, nor the quest completion chest were awarded. Not getting the chest for completing the quest was not “bad luck”. It was BROKEN!
