The Drop rate on Gore-Splattered Shoulders in Ashengate North Event: Lethar's Final Stand is way to low imo. I've probably just got really bad luck, but I've done this event almost 160 times and still no joy. Any Chance we can get a Dev to look at the drop rates, I know y'all are busy, but maybe sometime in the future? Today alone I've run it 6 times so far. Much love and appreciation for all your hard work. Sincerely, Thundersnake of Test.
It's just RNG. I got a pair back to back and a friend who usually runs it with me got a pair after 5-6 clears.
Done it reacently 5 times seen it drop 3 out of 5 once we had 2 drop, this was on AB server. I got the first ones so as Jyve says once you get them they drop everytime.
Meanwhile, I've been taking down at least 3 VoA raids as soon as the timers are up for months trying to score the guild trophies.... and have yet to see a single one.
Looks like players confirmed it's dropping. It looks to be 10% on two version of Lethar, (I did NOT make a deep dive, only shallow,,, its on a table that ends in "Lethar1" and another then ends in "Lethar2" Without a deep dive, I don;t know what these tables mean.)
Lethar drops 4 things each kill. First two are items, the second two are molds (BP and/or legs). There are 10 possible items it can drop (46931-46940 to be precise), so a 10% drop chance makes sense with the first item being "Lethar1" table and second "Lethar2" table. (I'm currently working on TSS guide, so it is fresh in my head)
we are almost through the expansion on ragefire and haven't seen a few items. Some have dropped once.. pretty rare
our 2nd last run we got 2 to drop and our last run we had 1 drop so they def drop and we are pretty lucky
As an FYI, non-boss fights in Ashengate/Frostcrypt have different loot tables for items 1 and 2. They have 8 possible drops (A-H), the first loot is (A,B,C,D,E,F) and the second is (A,B,C,D,G,H). This results in half the loot table being common and half rare. For example, Fridleif, the shaman shoulders, monk shoulders, bard lute, and one other (not sure which) are the E-H single table items. The others are A-D and be doubled.
Some things you have to remember is that when that expansion originally released the period of time during which that raid content would have been done is considerably longer than what you have before the next expansion comes out. Even with the increased number of attempts you and others have to attempt it, there are going to be items which don't drop but a few times before the next expansion releases.
Can confirm, I didn't remember this item until seeing this thread. I went and flagged 6 characters to request the raid. Then split up those 6 into teams with 1 or 2 helper dps and filler alts to request multiple raids (one at a time, obviously). I got 4x Gore-Splattered Shoulders out of 6 runs (and 2x Trumpet of the Dragon Goddess from the first Lethar, too).
I have killed Lethar event north of 50 times and have also never had them drop for my monk. Just bad luck.
The Shoulders from Lethar and Collar from Beltron have always been hit or miss for me but not crazy rare. I had better luck with the shoulders from Lethar than the Collar overall. I just did a Beltron run for the first time today in a long time and he dropped Collar first try!! It's just the RNG which can suck on raid timers, I've definitely gone long stretches without a drop.
