Apocryphal Well Leads Not Dropping

DarthCuddlefluff · July 2023

So when the DLC came out I immediately went for the well because I thought it looked DOPE. I want to get 3 of them so that I can buy them. However only The first 8 or so maps gave the the first leads I got. I have since done probably close to 60 maps in apocrypha and 100 or more in the TP and gotten no more leads. Here are some things I have tried: Scrying all active leads, waiting 24-48 hours before I get a new lead, getting a ton of leads for other antiquities both gold and purple, all of these things in tandem. I can only come to the conclusion that it's just borked and you can't get more than one currently. If this is the case I feel I am owed at least two more wells along with their lore. Anyone have this problem? Anyone gotten more than one well?

Huh that is odd.

Quite frankly I want my money back on top of it. That was pretty much all the money I'm gonna get for this expansion as it's mostly acquired from farming in the first month or so.

@ZOS_Kevin Can we get confirmation?

Silaf · July 2023

At least a confirmation they are aware of this bug and working on it would be great.

I guess they aren't fixing it. Well I guess antiquities aren't part of the game anymore. But hey they have more ToT to work on so who cares about leads?

I have looted far over approx 400 runestones and still counting for the mushroom stamp lead grr that's more than just bad rng!

It might just be considering how broken necrom's leads are.

After update 39.....33 treasure maps = 1 of the 3 leads for it....still a lousy drop rate

jmccormick · August 2023

...and that was on treasure map # 33, btw

Ektallion · August 2023

I already have one apocryphal well. Last evening after U39 was installed i tried to get few leads for second one after the “fix” announced in patchnotes. Spent 60 treasure maps in Apocrypha zone (~12kk gold for NA) and had no leads, only for fossils.

Daniel141182 · September 2023

Anyone managed to get more then 3 well leads yet?

Daniel141182 · October 2023

So anyone had a 4th well lead from maps after patch?

Ch3mical_92 · October 2023

50 million gold into the apocryphal well and still stuck at 3/9.

Worst. Bug. Ever! And no sign of Zenimax working on a fix

Rishikesa108 · October 2023

No second leads, let alone third ones.
Probably the RNG's probability of finding these leads is similar to that of becoming a billionaire by playing the lottery

yachoor · October 2023

I dug 217 treasure maps during the event and got 3+ copies of every other lead, but only 2 copies of each well lead (stuck at 6/9 codex entries)...
It took me over 298 chests (did not keep count at the beginning) in Gold Coast to get a single 2nd lead for Belharza's Band, so I won't be surprised if it takes 1000 of those to get all 3...
Some of those leads should really have the chances checked and revised

redspecter23 · October 2023

I will chime in and also say that I'm stuck at 3/9 for the Apocryphal Well. ZOS, I'm not saying it's broken, but I am asking that you please take a look at it to be sure. If the drop rate is actually intended to be this low, I would instead take a look at that drop rate to see if it's really a player friendly feature to have it set so low.

davapoole · October 2023

i got the 3 leads during necrom event in maybe 10-15 maps and got well on pc -eu i think sunday

yachoor · October 2023

Got a 3rd copy of one of the leads from 251st chest, won't be able to afford to get other 2 anytime soon. The chances suck

Update: 2nd one dropped from 274th map and last one from 343rd - cost me over 10m and was able to get them only thanks to the event.
In my opinion the drop chance should be at least 10x higher...

Daniel141182 · November 2023

Just curios for those who got 6 of 9 can all leads for this drop from trlvanni maps. Or is the arms lead only in apcryoha maps

merevie · November 2023

I farmed this the moment it dropped and got the well quickly a day, two at most. May be a post patch issue.

Post patch the urns in EA, which had been like a Santa Sack of furnishing motifs, also started giving out mostly just ash and lockpicks.

Having 0 issues with zone leads -are on round 2 with most of them -have all I think.

Daniel141182 · November 2023

Yes to get 1 well goes fast this was in regards to second and third well. All other i have complete codex for so they are not the problem

Yeah like I said too. The first well was a few maps. The next hasn't come yet after hundreds of maps and 10s of millions of gold spent. I want my money back and for them to fix it.

SJK87 · November 2023

The drop chance after all fixes and updates remains incredibly low for 2nd and 3d well. Doing my 3d one and spent 50 maps yesterday - no missing 2 leads for me (got 1 from endless archive’s vendor).

Orakel_von_Tamriel · November 2023

in the last days again 250+ treasure maps, but still hard stuck at 4/9...

@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Kevin is there any official information?

SJK87 · December 2023

100 more maps and no leads… 7/9 atm

I have a nice idea for future. You can add a new overpowered mythic item and put all the leads in treasure maps chests! It will be a lot of fun. 😂

BixenteN7Akantor · December 2023

The lead drop rates are so low in general and some of them have brutal requirements to even try to drop that I prefer to wait for Filer Ool to sell them lol
