I was wondering what the changes to them are?
I heard before 1.6, everyone was saying keep your keys because the % for getting them has been raised + no more sturdy trait for them?
Well, have these been implemented, were they even true?
Apparently these updates were on the patch notes, but honestly, I gave up after reading two sections of it, because it's a long patch note to read, and I haven't really got the patience to go through it all honestly.

So question, were these rumours true or not?

    Gold Key Shoulder drop chances were supposed to double with 1.6.

    Thus the reason people were saying to hold onto your Gold keys.

    I already stated this, but I'm asking if it's true or not :pensive:

    Well, I can tell you that my gold chest gave me shoulders right away. And the chest drop quality seemed much nicer, overall. But no one can tell you statistically what's changed after just one day. Read the patch notes if it's that big a concern for you.

    It's much of a "big concern" I'm just wondering whether these changes were true or not.
    gz on getting them shoulders though :smile:

    So instead of 0.00000000001% chance it is 0.00000000002%?

    @Troneon , depends. Are you talking about getting a set of shoulders, or getting the set of shoulders.

    I'm missing only one shoulder and one helm at this point.

    Might not be the right weight/trait, but they're there.

    Shoulders drop soooo easily from the chest now. Very high drop rate for them! Now to start farming the helms.

    Used 15 keys, got 5 shoulder pieces, none with a sturdy trait. They kept their word on upping the drop rate here, unlike the gold temper rates from refining...

    Edit: open the patch notes, Ctrl+F "Undaunted shoulder" = easy to find

    Potions of Weapon Power no longer include inappropriate text. LOLOL.
    Doubled the overall drop rate for all Undaunted shoulder pieces, and removed Sturdy shoulders from the mix (though not from the game entirely).
    Repair kits now repair items of the proper level.
    Clarified the buff text for drinks and potions.

    Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.

    Drop rate for monster shoulders appears to be about 1/3 keys now instead of 1/6. The relative value of the DPS sets is a bit less now though as they used to be a good way around caps to get more DPS. Now you can just go with another weapon or spell damage set. So you get more of something thats worth a bit less. Given the low XP of vet dungeons maybe not worth the effort. CP is everything people, all gear set bonuses are comparatively weak in the long run. Grind to win.
    I am currently worried for the future of ESO. Population seems like it is in free fall and the cancellation of the North America in-person gathering feels very much like pulling the plug. Kudos on fixing the in-game economy though. Clearly whatever gold shenanigans were happening the last couple years are fixed.

    6 of 10 here, including a version of the one shoulder I hadn't gotten yet.

    Still not the versions, but got more in those keys than I have gotten half of the entire time before.
