Anyone else not getting drops for the Firedrake, Stormlord, etc styles lately? I played for hours yesterday and today and did't get a single drop. I was coming in at 1st or 2nd place. They dropped like candy before. Has RNG forsaken me?

    The fire drake greaves were the last page I needed. Finally got it yesterday after about 50 land grab matches. Came 1 or 2 in the vast majority of matches.

    I think the issue is, when you get a style page it is not removed from the drop table. So you can get the same page over and over, but you don't get the page, you get nothing as you already have it.
    That's why you get the pages more frequently at the start when you don't have as many.

    I see, just checked and the greaves are the last Firedrake piece i'm missing, so this makes a lot of sense.

    Isn't that like .... crappy?
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    Oh everyone agrees it's crappy :D whether or not it'll be changed (aka fixed) is anyone's guess.

    Are you playing the right game type? I actually didnt notice that certain ones only drop from certain game types until i stopped getting one style. So thats why i ask.

    Firedrake style drops from land grab.. Sadly I still need the firedrake feet/shoulders and the stormlord legs/shoulders.

    Yep, quite crappy. It would be nice if it were changed however, all the BG style drops are like that so I don't see it happening.

    I haven't done nearly as many bgs as mentioned above and I have all fire Drake and pit deamon. Just missing some storm Lord. I run randoms. So perhaps that has something to do with it? I have no clue just hope it helps.
