It's listed as a common drop on Fanbyte - Allah but seems to be very rare. After dropping queen bee multiple times on Aradune starting on week one and every week since have not seen it drop once or even heard of it dropping. What are any of you seeing From Rizlona, Aradune and other TLP servers? Is this bugged?
~3% droprate. On Phinny in AoS we saw a grand total of 0 across 3 months of farming Sky on the regular. Just assume you will not get a Thornstinger in classic. Alla defaults to common droprate if not specified to be something else.
Magelo is often a more accurate indicator of rarity. https://eq.magelo.com/npc/413380 Shows up on the second page as ~4% (6 drops out of 142 records)
So if my accounting is accurate - 15 kills listing only Queen Bee unique drops The item - how many we have gotten - Magelo % - our % of drops Did this out of curiosity. Unique drops to Bazzt Zzzt - 15 kills w/ unique drops Wind Tablet - 4 (5%) - 26.7% White Gold Earring - 1 (3%) 6.7% Silvered Spiroc Necklace - 2 (6%) 13.3% silken wrap - 0 (4%) 0% Large Diamond - 1 (9%) 6.7% Divine Honeycomb - 0 (7%) 0% Corrosive Venom - 1 (3%) 6.7% Box of Winds - 1 (5%) 6.7% Bixie Sword Blade - 4 (7%) 26.7 Bixie Stinger - 0 (4%) 0% Amulet of Woven Hair - 1 (4%) 6.7%
Amazingly i got my Thornstinger last night . Unreal luck, Stinger dropped and we were headed to Eye so i figured slim chance the Sapphire would drop. It did. Every once in a while, Lady luck shines on me Torvius Tundraborn < The Filthy Casualz >
On Mangler, killing all OW bees and 3x instacing bee’s each week ,we got a total of: one Bixie Stinger before Kunark era on the last sky instance raid before kunark, also, we got ZERO , NILCH, Nada , 0 SK gems from EoV.... Thornstinger is a unicorn item that becomes obsolete in a raiding environment Vs. Ragebringer . I bet once Kunark hits all will drop. History will repeat itself
Maybe you need to reevaluate your rogue mechanics . Rogues out-dps all melee minus Sk’s and monks so they are definetly A welcome addition on classic . On the other hand warriors ...
