    I have been camping northeast tower in Bastion of Thunder for two days now trying to obtain lightning sphere to finish Agnarr tower key. Spheres from the other three towers dropped relatively quickly but this one simply is not showing.

    It definitely drops, it just is a bit more rare than the others. Last confirmed looted yesterday by someone with Magelo. https://eq.magelo.com/item/9430. Looks to be about a 9-10% drop rate from observed loots.

    Magelo is often wrong on percent drop rates. They are good for showing what stuff drops from, but not the rates.

    In some cases, yes. However, after over 10,000 observed loots, I think it's probably a decent indication of the drop rate for this particular item.

    Keep in mind this sphere is blue instead of the usual white.

    Good point. Another data point from me:

    [Sun Jan 23 23:16:12 2022] --You have looted a Lightning Sphere from A brann kriger's corpse.--
    [Sun Jan 23 23:38:47 2022] --Soandso has looted a Lightning Sphere from A brann kriger's corpse.--

    Could not reproduce this. This item appears to be dropping as intended.

    I don't really want to move this to the top of the posts. There has been no indication from the OP if this has been resolved by finally getting the drop. I am just wondering if the OP checked their loot filters? Perhaps a miss-aimed click to block something else from showing in the advanced loot window. I have done it myself.

    Check your advanced loot filter. You might had set it on never need and then it won't show up.
