Style materials not dropping from deconstructing items from DLC-zones

This was an issue for someone back in 2020 and seems to be an issue now.

I run around Tamriel buying cheap gear items to decon for the style mats, I would decon say 10 gear items and get 5-6 style mats, now I'm lucky to get 1 or 2 if any.
Other people are also pointing out RNG for drops such as nirncrux has plummeted. Also furnishing mats from nodes too. I must have harvested 40 rune nodes and got 3 mundane runes...someone said a there could be a bot that harvests only the mundane runes, but more likely it's a game glitch.

In many of your fixes, is it possible a fix for one thing corrupted another such as rng drop or deconstruct rng?

I noticed it a patch or two ago, but thought it would correct itself or a fluke, but more people are bring up the discussion in guild chats.

    Are you deconning the same color quality gear as before? Deconning higher color gear has better chances at giving the style and trait mats. That might be contributing to lower drop rates if it’s the case that you’re deconning more greens/blues rather than blues/purples.

    I more or less buy blue and purple gear or run treasure chest/treasure map runs of zones, but I've been doing this for years, I see a difference in deconstruction.

    I don't post in the forums much, but I've played for awhile, I honestly feel decon rng has dropped. I'm not huge on pvp, nor dungeons and trials, I like making money in any game I play, so I spend a lot of time doing things that result in said money short of doing 18 toons of writs and selling mats.
