Random normal daily drops helmets.

Dubhliam

Normal dungeons can drop helmets if you access them via the random normal daily.

This is obviously not intended, right?

Mojmir

Lol wut?

I would however like for somebody to confirm this if possible.

It is not something that I experienced first hand, although I HAVE specifically asked if it was normal random or veteran random.
Since the person in question is not a new player, I did not question this.

However.

Today I have yet again seen a truly veteran (old school/hardcore) player still be confused about the story modes versus normal modes and those terminologies.
I mean he said, "Okay, I get some dungeons are now Spindle 1 and Spindle 2, but if Volenfell has no number, then what is that?"
I kid you not.

And people still assume you will get blue quality in Spindle 1, and purple quality in Spindle 2.
Instead of correlating quality drops with difficulty e.a. normal and veteran.

So please... can anyone confirm this?

I know that normal versions of the Shadows of the Hist dungeons were dropping helms before the patch, though more rarely, and I believe Imperial City dungeons may as well. I think this is fair, as those dungeons are way harder on Vetern mode than other dungeons in the game. Could your helm drop have come from one of those?

Mojmir

the normal old dungeons do not drop monster set pcs. Unless you have proof otherwise.

all group dungeons will drop monster helms. Delves obviously will drop overland sets in random quality. The group dungeons will drop blue on normal, purple on vet and well Gold is just a question for me. My guess is group dungeon vet 2 on hard mode for gold.

shoulders are only obtained from undaunted daily purple key rewards.

if you do any group dungeon on vet ie., vaults of madness you will get purple helms. If you do ie., vaults of madness on NORMAL you will get blue helms. since vaults only has one level you can only do it on normal or vet. Now lets say you want to do spindle 1. Vet mode will be purple normal mode will be blue. Spindle 2 normal mode will be blue, vet more will get you purple and if you do spindle 2 on vet mode final boss on hard mode I do believe you will get GOLD. Its kinda of confusing but not to difficult to figure it out.

• Normal Dungeon: Completing a Pledge in a Normal version of the dungeon awards a single Undaunted Key.
• Veteran Dungeon: Completing a Pledge in a Veteran version of the dungeon awards a single Undaunted Key, but completing Veteran versions of the Dungeon are also the only way to get the Undaunted Monster Masks.
• Veteran Hard Mode: Completing a Pledge in a Veteran version of the dungeon after the final boss has been made more difficult will award two Undaunted Keys, in addition to awarding the Monster Mask from completing a Veteran Dungeon.

If you have proof Undaunted Monster head pieces drop from normal dungeons, could you please post it here?

Also, just to comment on your lack of knowledge:
Gold quality drops from HM veteran last boss?
Just LOL.

Only did one normal group dungeon by accident but hey who does normal dungeons right. Now as far as Gold items, I'm just wondering where that gold set jewelry drops because ive not seen a single one. I was hoping hard mode vets actually had a chance but maybe ZOS just left them out of the dungeon loot tables. Maybe it would be better to ask that question about gold dungeon jewelry instead of trying to figure out how better to farm monster helms. I'm just thinking the only reason you might want to do normal is so you can solo play / farm instead of the intended mechanic.

Not 100% sure about monster helms and last boss on normal but totally no clue on GOLD set Jewelry.

UrbanMonk

There are two ways of getting gold jewellery -

1. The gold Jewellery of the trails sets will drop on Vet- Hard Modes.
2. The gold jewellery for other sets ( not all and I don't have a list of which but I take it they are the same sets for which gold jewellery was dropping from trial) can be bought from the weekly vendor at cyrodill.

Hope that clears.

Dubhliam

This is not about gold jewelry farming.
Nor is it about Helmet farming.

This is a bug report.
You know, as in it is a thread in a Forum section called Bug Reports.

Normal dungeons should not drop Monster helmets.

Since I am lacking proof myself, I ask of anyone if they can confirm this.
You know, with evidence.
