Motif Drop Rate Nerfed?

Since the end of event I've done 30 guild dailies and not a single Draugr motif has dropped.

    I just noticed it while farming ra-gada. Chances to get motif chapter became very low.
    Actually it's funny, because after event when prices for all motifs significantly dropped, now there is no point of farming them :p

    I've been having the same problem with Order of the Hour motifs from Gold Coast dailies.
    They hardly ever drop any more.. :worried:

    Draugr was absurdly low drop any way, I did 40 off quests before I saw one of them. You're probably just suffering a string of bad RNG.

    I've done 90+ guild dailies and got around 5 draugr motif chapters. It give us a statistical probability about 5%. So, it would be no harm to increase it slightly, I suppose. In order to increase probability of having full style after completing the Fighters, Mages and Undaunted guilds achievements. Or just increase chances if you have the guild dailies achievements.

    Before the last event I was getting about a drop rate of 1 in 10 for the guild dailies. Was anyone else?

    I have noticed a drop off in the rate of motifs being dropped. As in one motif since the event ended. I think it was an Outlaw Motif, not even sure where it came from.

    I kind of expected this as the motif drop rate during the event was rather insane. Although I did complete all but two of the Motifs with help from the event. Only had to spend about 200K, vs the more than 1,000,000 I would have to complete the ones I did. (I don't do a lot of the farming activities that drop motifs on a regular basis). I think I had to learn 12 of them before the event, now I only need 2.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Yeah I refused to spend more than 5k on a motif, and farmed them relentlessly during the event. But still short quite a few, since I could not play the game 24/7.

    Gina, was this an intentional nerf to reduce the drop rates to below what they were before the event or is this a bug?

    I stopped doing the guild dailies after getting no more than a handful of Draugr motifs in more than 3 weeks. Craglorn dailies gave me a far higher drop rate of Yokudan motifs and I can sell them for 30k+.

    I have my largest deficit in Draugr, so have been focusing on those to no avail.

    Draugr drop rate was pretty low before the event at about 1 motif for every 20 dailies, so if your getting 1 in 10 you're on a lucky streak ;)
    Since the end of event I've done 30 guild dailies and not a single Draugr motif has dropped.

    Since drop rate in about 1 in 20 normally, getting 0 in 30 is not unusual.

    Its about a 20% chance to get Minotaur/Order of the hour (when i was counting these i got 39 motifs from 173 attempts).
    This was before the anniversary event.
