    That was directed at both of you. What a tacky thing to complain about. "Wah, I can't get Worm Cult motifs after 2 days in a festival that lasts 2 weeks. Wahh, I'm getting duplicate motifs."

    Great Akatosh, when will it end.

    12 days, 14 pages. Figure that if you're not getting a new page every day, and two new pages at least once, you're going to run out of time before completing the motif. In that context, yeah, if someone's only seen one or two pages, now would be time to start worrying about that, because unless something changes, these pages are going to be stupidly expensive by May.

    I have just (last night) completed my set of Worm Cult. It’s a nice style.

    I’m pretty sure the drop rate was nerfed sometime on day 2. This is evidenced not only by how many Cult motifs I took from crates on the first day, and partially on the second day, compared to any day since, but also by the trade price of the motifs. I keep MM data across a number of the bigger trading guilds and a few smaller guilds too (merged data from around 6 major guilds and 3 minor) - the price has shot through the roof, which simply doesn’t happen in an event like this unless the rate falls away.

    The nerfed rate is allowing some serious profiteering from motifs. I noticed on EU that Hands had sprung from an initial price of c. 35k to well over 100k as standard. Some are asking 250k. Similar for other pieces, and nothing is currently less than 60k.

    Not a fan myself but I'm glad to be able to sell on so that those who do like it can get it. And no, I'm not gouging on prices. Re-sellers probably are but I try.

    It's actually really super easy to obtain. The guild traders are overflowing with its chapters.

    PC?

    On Eu PS4 Its rare, my experience so far is that at the major hubs maybe 3 - 6 pages available across the traders, most are 150-200K each occasionally one as low as 100k

    Overflowing? I wish.

    I got like 6 motifs after opening 15 or so boxes the first day. Since then it's 1 a day. Definitely nerfed the drop rate of motifs.

    The drop rate is 2-3% and I have seen no difference in rate on maxed crafter. Some people just jump to conclusions on RNG.

    P.S. If anyone has swords for trade on xbox hit me up.

    This game 100% needs to step away from RNG and adopt a token based system. This event through my own lack of 'luck' hasn't been fun and has been eye bleedingly repetitive.

    I haven't kept track of how many boxes I've opened, but it is probably at least 150. So far I have gotten 4 drops and one of them was one I already had. I got the Gloves, shoulders and two of the swords.

    Stop complaining all the time, if every one get everything easily then you don't need trade with other players.

    Gear can be transmuted and its already a big step!

    It's not rng because rng means random . Each item has different drop rates meaning it's not exactly random

    We use to talk about this a lot on the poker forums. Especially on a computer, nothing is random, it's based on something. And while we may not know what it's based on this only gives the illusion of random.

    May as well be random from our perspective, but that's also why I like taking my time, just tryin to jumble as much stuff up as possible

    Have opened 100 boxes and received 1 Wormcult page (boots). Kind of a let down that it is such a low drop rat but on the bright side I have also gotten 2 Bouyant Arminger pages that I didn't have.

    If there wasn't a reason to complain i wouldn't complain!

    Stop being a happy clapper! Every event is RNG, yet master crafting writs use tokens you can exchange for what you actually want rather than participating in an eye bleeding, razerblade swallowing, bleach drinking, tidepod munching soul crushing grind fest at every event!

    There is a place for RNG just not all the time!
