Anyone know the drop rate on named weapons?

I've run VoM on normal about 30 times looking for Grothdar lightning staff drop called Despair, but nothing so far.
Why did the Dunmer cross the road?
Apparently to get stuck in an eternal load screen!

    Feels like somewhere between 2.5 and 5%, but, no I don't have the actual numbers, sorry.

    Well, weapons are rare already. Then it would be 1 of 9 from there with all 8 traits and the named one. Then add in thr armor so assuming there 2 sets and bosses drop large pieces you have 4 times 8 times 2. So the 2 to 5 percent sounds right
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Weapons only drop from final boss unless it's a named drop. If Grothdar is going to drop a weapon it will be Despair staff 100% of the time.

    Is it just me or does it feel like everything drops except what you need?
