Transmute Crystals as Rewards in Master containers

Is anyone still getting these? I haven't gotten any transmutes at all out of my yellow ToT rewards containers since 43 dropped. Just my bad RNG?

    My bad RNG, after opening 10 or so, I posed this, and then got 5 in my next one...

    I have. When what I really want is a spearhead scrap. Can't remember the last time I saw one

    Maybe you have one in a chest or in the bank or something?

    I usually get 5 transmute crystals whenever I open purple or golden ToT bag, always, never missed it, just 5 though.

    I have played over 20 Tribute games in the last three days and haven't gotten any transmute crystals in ANY of my rewards containers. I was actually mentioning this to a friend of mine tonight, wondering if they've recently changed the drop rate for transmute crystals in Tribute games. It's kind of bumming me out, honestly, as I really only play Tribute for the transmute crystals.

    Okay, seriously, since I made that last post on September 29th, I have STILL only received transmute crystals ONE TIME, and that was from the daily quest reward box. And I have played many, many matches.

    Seriously, what gives???

    I saw in another post you play ToT against the NPC's for the transmute crystals. They don't award the gold version of the ToT reward container, except maybe for the daily quest. I can't recall if purple reward containers ever gave transmute crystals or it might've got changed. I still sometimes get the transmute crystals from gold reward containers from playing against human opponents on the ladder.

    Either that or you have a broken RNG seed which could also be possible.

    An alternative is to run the daily for normal non-DLC dungeons. It's a cake walk and not really a group effort if you prefer to play solo.

    Yeah I think it's without a doubt at this point that they lowered the drop rate of transmutes from yellow containers from humans.

    Can anyone lend credence to this idea that you get them more often from playing NPCs?

    I've been starting to play on my newest accoumt over the last few weeks.

    I'm only playing npc dailies and atm I'm still just offered the easiest Npc, I have received transmutes from both the mailed green reward coffers and the final purple coffer.

    I tend to pick up a daily one day, then the next day do it and then pick up and complete that day's daily too.

    This nets me two purple and six green coffers and ofc any whites if I lost games.

    Whilst I have received a fair few transmutes, I have not seen one spearhead or heavily played card fragment reward as of yet!!
    When people say to me........
    "You're going to regret that in the morning"
    I sleep until midday cos I'm a problem solver!

    Interesting. I basically just play to get to rubedite now that I rarely get transmutes from playing players, but maybe I'll start playing NPCs when I need transmutes. Seems odd that they would do that, incentivize playing NPCs over players. Wonder if @ZOS_Icy (or any zos person) has a comment on this?

    I would say that it isn't a viable option these days to get Transmutes as the drop rate does seem to be lower than it was.

    I cannot comment on the drop rate from playing actual players as poor attitudes caused me to stop doing that very shortly after ToT released.

    However I do really enjoy a few hands against NPC's, I used to have to regularly use up transmutes to make space for more, these days it seems to take a lot longer to refill my allowance, after say converting 50 to a potent nirn. :)

    Had to come back to comment again. Since the last time I posted, August 28th, I got ONE spearhead scrap. ONE. And that was from last week. Its ridiculous. I probably average playing ToT 5 days a week

    This seems to have been reversed, maybe in yesterday's patch. I am once again fairly frequently getting 5 transmutes out of yellow coffers.
