Did anything change with survey drop rates?

Might be a coincidence but I did the crafting writs on 6 characters and didn't get a single survey...which seems a bit odd... did stackable surveys mess anything up?

I am doing my best, but I am not a native speaker, sorry.
"Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 24 DLCs. 40 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game." - @AlexanderDeLarge0 -

scrappy1342✭✭✭✭there's a few other posts that zos has responded to. drops with the surveys and writs got messed up with the patch and they said they would fix it in a future incremental patch. i think it was woodworking and clothing that weren't dropping at all? they were dropping writs instead. for ppl who aren't even maxed in professions, they are getting master writs.3 -
Ilumia✭✭✭✭✭Good with some information on this, I have only gotten one survey since the update, and thought it must be bygged.
I only daily craft on one character, so it's difficult to gather good data to support any conclusions over such a short time.0 -

Aylish✭✭✭✭✭Woodworking and clothier are bugged and cannot drop. It seems like you get the respective writ instead.
The other surveys seem fine and just as before.0 -

7 characters done daily since the update but did patch daily writs before patch, so I've missed one set after patch. Not a single clothier or woodworking survey they are indeed bugged sadlyEdited by Bloodgetter1223 on 21 August 2025 12:080 -

✭I have only one toon, so I only do 7 crafting dailies per day. Prior to U47 I used to get one or two survey maps a day. There would be occassional days were I wouldn't get a drop.
After 4 days, 28 crafting dailies, since the update I am yet to get a new survey drop.

That’s because (as mentioned above) for two crafts the game is giving you a master writ whenever it rolls for a survey.1 -
