X-45 Heartbreaker Mount Drop Rate Increase

How do we know this is working properly and it’s not like a trading post 2.0? I’m doing 52 runs per day and It doesn’t reflect a “greatly increased” chance (I should notice other players getting it), Just let us know the actual % for that first attempt.

BTW, you and one other person (and myself of course) are the only people who I REALLY want to get this mount this year. You both really deserve it, and … well, I’m me so obviously I want myself to get it.

The other is Zora from SFD.

Thanks for the consideration, I just want to finish this grind, Also I’d like to see improvements in rewards in general. It’s like Devs don’t think about player time and approach, I tough we’ll see a better solution since Dev last year mentioned how this event doesn’t feel fun and doing massive amount of alts can be frustated. (Also,I’ve to travel for a business trip, probably less attempts per day due to time available)

I’d like to see holidays actually updated as corresponding and a better reward path, also there’s so many rare drops that could be improved, I’ve most mounts in games and I’ll keep asking for improvements for those even if I had the mount because I’ll prefer that other players don’t suffer the same awful design.

Good Luck with this farm.

Another day, another bout of depressing results. How could they possibly have thought that this was a great way to fix a decade plus of drought?

Most of the sheep that read your post will not understand how insignificant this change is. So you are basically going from a 1% to a 2% (doubled) but it only applies to the first attempt of the day…

What a joke.

I love that the increase was added because it only took me running it three times on this character the last three days to get the mount. :heart: :heart: :heart:

The original drop chance was 0.03%
Most people guess the new once a day one to be 0.1%

So it is still extremely low.

I wish it was a 1% every kill.

This feels like an unnecessary correction Its still a ridiculously low droprate for something that anyones been doing for 13 years.

Can we please just have the “increased” drop rate on all kills for the final week of the event?

No one except the people who were lucky enough to get the mount like this change, and even they can probably admit that it would be better to have a reasonable chance for everyone to get this.

1% chance per run for 7 days. If you run 20 toons, which most people won’t, you’ll still only have about a 70% chance to see it drop in that time. That’s rare enough considering the vast majority of people run it once per day regardless, if even that often. So many of my guild haven’t run it once, even with the increased chance. The only people who care are those of us who love collecting mounts, who create alts just to farm them, and we’re the ones being punished here.

Please change it, you had a year to find a proper fix and made this last minute band-aid fix and it’s just not enough.

Please make the drop rate across all toons this change isn’t helping or what we asked for. Please don’t ignore us for another year.

Been trying 60+ alts daily (down from 97 last 2 years) and it feels the same. My first roll of the day is more interesting then it is the same.

Don’t quite understand why they refuse to have bad luck protection for mounts.

Why can’t we just have it be bought with currency that drops after you’ve tried the event 100 times or something like that?

If you wanna grind for the love rocket the more attempts you do it a day should INCREASE the chance that it drops. Not just rewarding people for doing it on 1 toon w/a “greatly increased” drop rate. I’m grinding this on 17 toons alone this year, on top of the already 12+ toons for 12 years. HAVE SYMPATHY FOR ME

I don’t particularly like the mount, but am doing it on my alts since the xp is good. Still seems like a super low drop rate to me as i have NOT seen one drop for me or anyone else ever…

I have the other holiday mounts, got many on fisrt year they came out.

it drops inside a box for level 60+. Most people don’t open the box in the dungeons, and if you’re doing it on alts they prob arent high enough to get the box.

I have 16 level 60+ between my two accounts, but thanks for the tip, because i did have a couple of 20s i was going in with. I always open mine in dungeon just to flaunt my mount drop tjat i never get.

This is like the Sha mount when someone pops off in guild with, ‘I don’t know what all the fuss was about I just got it first time ever!’
You just say grats while another piece of your soul dies :stuck_out_tongue:

If the drop rate increase only applies to the first attempt, then geez throw an alt a bone, and increase the xp you get from running it on alt. I know its a quick run, but a big xp buff is not hurting anything imo. Time walk dungeons give better xp, than regular dungeons, why not a holiday once a year dungeon?

RNG isn’t work. Playing the content is work. RNG is luck.
