So we cleared this last night, and not one chest other then treasured dropped... Working as intended... or just bad luck!? Anyone else had similar gains?
That's interesting... what sever were you on? Did you happen to pettion about it? seems strange to not get at least one Ornate chest.
Deathtoll, also the lockout timer kept resetting itself everytime we killed a name, which is odd aswell... we had it down to 32 mins, then killed a sister and it restarted our lockout timer.
it's probably one of those zones you have 'access' to but aren't supposed to yet. I don't think Nek the Return came out until aound the time Shard of Hate opened up.
Nekcastle The Return was original game. Known widely as Nek2. It was a x2 zone if I remember back in the day. Nek 3 is the one you are thinking of.
... I don't believe that Nek Castle 'The Return' was in the original launch. (Is that what you meant?) (Of course, I have been wrong before...)
Fair enough, I sit corrected [insert feeble excuse about confusion over the other instance whose entrance is behind the castle, and minor rant about the inadvisability of using abbreviations such as 'nek2' that are inherently ambiguous].
From the few times I've been running Nektropos Castle - The Return on the normal servers earlier, I didn't see any ornate chests dropping there either. Having said that, most of the loot in this zone was broken long time ago, during the itemization process, and never fixed - and I think most, if not all, Legendary items which could have been dropping there, are those broken ones, like The Smithy Hammer - which was removed from the game probably due the reason above. So Nektropos Castle - The Return is only good to run for achievements and exploration, mostly, and no other reason really.
If the time lock servers were set up like the game at release that's not surprising. When the game first came out ornate and fable chests were extremely rare. Even contested mobs (especially the x2's) would drop treasured chest often. I recall even Darathar the original end raid mob dropped us an occasion box with out any legendary or fabled items in it.
we just ran about half of it (3 of the sisters). I am not shocked to see any non legendary chests. but the first name we got an item that doesn't even exist (green goblin symbol). which was just...lols
Me too Balzor. Its my second time running the zone and both times Shiela won't spawn after the little script of a ghost killing her ghost happens. On Stormhold server that is...
well it seems that all the names, excluding Everling, has 1 fabled item on them. that fabled item has a 0.6% drop rate. Everling has 2 fables, each 0.6% drop rate. so it's safe to say most times you will get just a treasure chest
nektropos the return was an add on in the original game iirc it wasnt available straight on release (but well lavastorm wasnt there too so) nek 3 is a lvl 70 instance
