    What about gnomes? Does the presence of gnomes adversely affect your chances?

    If they're sitting at the chest's spawn location when it tries to spawn and if it has an anti-camp radius, then yeah, you're gonna have a bad time!

    It's always a bonus to have a gnome in the group because gnomes are their own reward.

    Meat on the hoof is of some worth I guess?

    Can confirm frosty gem can drop if warder part is not failed.

    Grilled Cheese sandwiches should be a guaranteed 100% drop rate on all the best items.

    I did the raid for a year straight then got it 3 times in a row.

    I dunno, i did the raid many many times a few years ago and it didn't drop till i failed the one part. and this wasn't the only instance of this......quite a few people say the same thing.

    every time ive ever got the aug was if i failed the animal event.

    You can fail the animals event or wear your socks backwards if you think it'll help.

    The only thing that would make that possible is if it was possible to manipulate the RNG state, and even then, it's probably a rather astronomical task (gear changes could affect how one has to manipulate the state, someone missing a rebuff etc)


    Plus that would require the RNG state to be known. Which I do not think is really possible :p (I feel like I remember there was an issue fixed a few years ago where instances had the RNG state the same on fresh boot or something, but even then, sounds unlikely one could successfully manipulate the loot drops)

    What if I already wear my socks backwards? Should I then wear them forwards, or am I already ahead of the curve?

    Hmm Could this lead to a new illusion? If so, what kind of socks would be best?

    jonas dagmire's salt water drenched 4 leaf clover socks feet slot augment with a maximum of 4 luck lore : perhaps you should wash and dry before wearing.

    Ran this junk raid for months.... never saw it... still have never seen it on a “corpse”. ... pretty sure it was player crafted as guildmate got me mine...
  17. Sobmre Augur


    it's been awhile but i think i noticed if you fail the event a different named chest pops vs if you win them.

    Perhaps run the raid its probably a bug
  18. Prathun Developer

    This is working as intended.
    If you successfully complete the animals event, you get an additional chest at the conclusion of the raid.

    This frosty gem is a rare gem but it does drop. I've seen it... recently even.
  20. Tutankamen Augur

    Actually Prathun can you confirm that Frosty Gem works as intended, boosting AC when it's in a shield slot type 5? It made me wonder b/c that gem comes from LDoN - long before Type 5s were a thing for a shield. Does it work as people think it does when put in that slot?
