    Brother, nobody who goes 40 missions without a cloak drop is *ever* going to forget about how they dropped evolving items in Laurion's Song.

    I'm still at 4 necks in 60 missions, haven't seen a neck in 34 missions.

    Haven't had a second neck yet.

    TOV had Chilly Critters in Kael mission, Useless Tools in Velks, and Bare Necessities of a Simpler Time in the GD mission. There's even one in the Tempest Temple mission back in TDS, though I forget which it is now skimming the achievement page.

    I just gave a very very recent example to prove it, I never offered a comprehensive list which would be way off topic for this thread.

    TBL also has sets drop from the Aalishai and Esianti missions... (did collects in Missions start in TBL?)
  11. FYAD Augur

    COTF, TDS and TBM had collects inside their heroic adventures (not a mission, but still an instance and you had to progress the HA to a certain point before they spawn). I think EOK did as well. ROS did not. To the poster that thinks it's so crazy, you're the one who hasn't been paying attention.

    Also, the drop rate is ridiculous. Should add it to the currency vendor. For an item that takes hundreds of hours to evolve, getting the initial item shouldn't be the gate.

    Yeah that's common and it's not really a big deal.

    I have completed 95 missions in total and seen 3 neck drops for a drop rate of 3.1%. While the overall drop rate may be higher than that it seems lady luck doesn't shine on us all.

    I honestly preferred questing for the item. Just my opinion.
  14. scaethach Scholar

    I've done 71 consecutive runs with zero now :(
  15. Brickhaus Augur


    At a 3% drop rate, that's a 11% chance of happening over 71 runs.

    Not actually that uncommon ...

    Relying on the RNG should never be the entry point for anything in this game.

    Devs idea of having good time in eq :rolleyes: ...

    Given that the favorite bread of many devs is PITA, it does make sense.

    I'm up to 86 heroic missions completed and seen 4x necks drop.

    Going with the theme of achievements, the base evolver should be awarded for 'Explorer of ...'
