Has anyone noticed a drop in the recurrence of master tempering alloys while refining mats? I refined over 400 ores and didn't get a single one. A couple weeks ago I would of Gergen at least a couple...

    Yeah, I did 3 stacks (600 ore) yesterday and got zero.

    End of last week I did about the same number of ore (500ish) and got 1.

    Seems legit >_>

    I'm not saying it's bad or good. I like the idea of working for the good stuff in the game. It makes it that much sweeter when you do finally get a whole set of master armor. I just wanted to know if anyone else had noticed in drop since a few weeks ago. It does obviously suck though.

    I always run my raw materials across a Lucky Nereid's Foot and a Petrified Bull Charm before I refine them.

    The day they add refinements to the crown store, I will quit this game for good. And I really like this game.

    Please understand that the refining rates for gold tempers, and the percent chances of getting a Kuta, Perfect Roe, or either of the two Nirncruxes are the basic ways that ZOS has in their arsenal to regulate the in-game economy. Increasing and decreasing these drop rates allows them to cool down an overheated economy, or jumpstart a weak one.

    Right now, Perfect Roe drop rates are very low as ZOS masterfully removes the surplus Roe from the economy introduced by the Wrothgar fishing bug, by causing massive demand for Exp Potions with the current Cake promo.

    Learning when to expect expansions and contractions of those very rare mats is how you can make a lot of money in this game. ;)

    Lately for me it's been about 1:500-ish for Tempering Allow, 1:1000 for Dreugh Wax, 1:350 for Rosin, and about 1:300 for Perfect Roe. Lately I've been having a ridiculously hard time getting Dreugh Wax and I blame the sorc mudcrab farming bots.

    Might be just a dry period. I had that for a couple of months on one character so I stopped refining mats for a while and just stored them. The last time I refined ore a couple of weeks ago, I got 8 yellow tempers in 4-5 stacks of different kind of ores.
