Sea Elf Galleon Helm Lead.

Hi, this Lead (Sea Elf Galleon Helm) has a chance to drop from enemies in Dreadsail Reef trial.
My first drop was after about 5-6 runs of this trial. For the second codex entry, this Lead dropped after about 8 more trial runs.

So I am currently 2/3 codex and missing one drop for the last codex entry.

When I started farming this Lead I was not DSR before so I didn't have any of the sets that drops there. As I wrote above, the Lead for the first and second codex entry drops in a reasonable number of runs but for the last codex entry I suspect it is a bug and the Lead is not dropping.

Why do I think so?

Currently I have all the sets from DSR (normal version) complete (including weapons) so I have been really big amount of runs of this trial, all parts of the set I have purely from boss drop (I didn't open chests/at the end of the trial dont trade from other players as many people do), I have been more than 50 runs of this trial and no success in the form of Lead drop.

I stop believing that this is just RNG and game design and I suspect a bug.
Would it be possible to check if this Lead still drops in DSR and it is not a bug?

Hi, since creating this thread I have been another 32x DSR runs and no Lead drop.
Any info on what's going on, whether it's a bug or just the chances of a drop are astronomically small (for last codex entry)?

Hi, so it's not a bug.

Today Lead finally dropped.

A little feedback, this was one of the worst Leads in the game in my opinion (I'm talking about the 3rd codex entry, getting 1 and 2 entries was fine in my opinion).
First of all it only drops from specific trial and the number of full runs that were needed is excessive and definitely not "player friendly".
Yes, I understand that the 3rd codex is supposed to be grind but in my opinion this Lead in DSR is too much.

Probably the devs are not very interested in Antiquities and probably not many players are attracted to the codex hunt, but it is part of the game and the drop of some Leads is too crazy.

I finally got the full stickerbook for ndsr too not long ago and I think I only had one lead. It dropped in the first few runs and then nothing since then.

I ran with a prog group and we did vet for a couple of months, but we never made it past the twins so no possible drops there.

Yeah, for the 3/3 on that Galleon Helm I was over 60x full trial run(I only started counting runs recently, drop was yesterday at 36 run but before that I was definitely a good 30+ runs) and the DSR stickerbook is a joke compared to the farm codex of that lead.

While that Lead that drops from the last bosses in Craglorn trials (I don't know now the exact name of that furnishing) was drop fine, for 3/3 I was total around 15 trials so here for example fine..

BTW, this Galleon Helm Lead can drop from any enemy in DSR, so even from those mobs at the beginning...

Ah, okay. There aren’t many mobs at the first though, like maybe a dozen or two.

Yea, not many but at least it's something, and now you know it's worth looting.

Quick question, does this lead only drop from specific enemies in the trial? I have 2/3 leads for it but both of those leads dropped from the turtle boss only. Can you confirm that they dropped from other enemies?

Yes, you can drop from any enemy.

My first drop was from the Sail Ripper boss (the harpy), my second drop was from a random enemy (if I remember correctly it was one of those enemies that have a banner, dropped in the part before the last boss) and my third drop was from the Bow Breaker boss (the turtle, you can see it in the attached picture in the answer above).

Because this Antiquity took me a lot of time to put on 3/3 I remember the individual drops even though it was a long time ago the first and second drop...

So GL in your third drop.

Your reply must have given me good luck because I just got my 3rd drop from the sail ripper boss today! Thank you!
