The following was in the 3.3.0 patch notes:
Crafting Motifs
  • With the release of the Outfit System, we've adjusted the drop rates for a number of Crafting Motifs to help ensure certain impressive or prestigious Motifs retain a degree of rarity. In most cases, this reduction is marginal. This change affects the following Crafting Motifs:
    • Aldmeri Dominion
    • Ancient Elf
    • Assassins League
    • Barbaric
    • Celestial
    • Daedric
    • Daggerfall Covenant
    • Dro-m'Athra
    • Ebonheart Pact
    • Mercenary
    • Minotaur
    • Outlaw
    • Primal
    • Ra Gada

Specifically, for Celestial and Dro-m'Athra, they currently have a fixed non-RNG drop rate: a guaranteed chapter from weekly trial coffers. How are their drop rates being reduced, since their rarity right now is gated by the once-per-week coffer mechanism and not by chance.

Are their drop chances from coffers no longer guaranteed?

Or is their drop model being changed completely?

(Personally, I think that the model for the SotH and HotR motifs is better and should be used for trial motifs: Take the motifs out of the coffers, make them drop from the final boss of the trial, with a low chance on normal, higher chance on vet, and guaranteed on vet HM; this rewards players for completing more difficult content while discouraging the run-your-alts-through-normal-every-week farming model that punishes players who don't like to play alts.)
