Ambrosia Fragment Drop Rate Reduced?

One of the few things that earns me decent money is selling fragments from the seven-piece Psijic Ambrosia recipe...before Orisinium, I had earned about a dozen fragments from the daily Provisioning Writs. But since Orsinium dropped, I have eraned only one...and my two brothers have earned zero. I did a search here and see no one mentioning a change...are others noticing that the writ reward probabilities were reduced?

    After weeks, rather months, of getting nothing Ambrosia Related, I have gotten 3 Fragments in the past two weeks. Even one on my L20 Provisioner who is doing L3 Recipes.

    So, it's all RNG
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    I do every writ on all of my toons, every day. It may just be bad luck...but I haven't received a Fragment in a long, long time. =(

    Gave up after finding 3 or 4 and bought the rest. Think I've found 3 since. The rates seem to be very low. Not sure if I was just really lucky when it first came out or if it got nerfed. I assume lucky.

    Wow...maybe i was luckier than average before! Though, with my brothers' input, I do feel like I've noticed a difference.

    I think I contributed three fragments when my core group pooled our fragments to make the actual recipe, but I have earned at least six fragments since then (two copies each of III, IV and V)...but of those nine fragments, I only recall one of them coming from the Orsinium Quartermaster. So:
    • September through November: 8 fragments
    • December: 1 fragment
    • January: 0 fragments

    Consistently unbalanced even for random luck.

    I've had the opposite, so likely it's rng

    2 guys, did top level writs since June, only one single drop. I then bought the rest.

    Since then, in the last month or two, I've had at least 6 drop. So take that as it is but I believe it's truly rng.

    Yeah I think they have actually tweaked the RNG on them so they are extremely rare now. I used to get 1-2 a week before Orsinium was released, after that, I now get 1 a month if I am lucky.
    Far too many characters to list any more.

    Had about 2 months without any, then 3 within a week, and now been about 5-6 weeks without anymore.
