Opal style mask not droping - dungeon difficulty GF bug?

Paramedicus

Dunno if I have just bad luck or something is buggy with GF. Today I ran 3 different (and proper) vet dungs for opal mask pages and i didn't get any drop. On last run i asked team if anyone got one, and noone did. We ran in partially pre-made group using Group Finder. I had similar experience with premade group and GF yesterday, but i'm still not sure if this bug exists or is it just really bad RNG. We stared to port into dungs manually because GF was acting strange.

If you didn't get your opal mask drop, check your dungeon mode setting in GF (it may say it is "normal" even if just ran dungeon in vet). i'm still not sure about this, but it seems GF might be changing dung mode somewhere to normal, so game won't recongize that you just finished HM, meaning you won't get opal drop. I'm not sure how to reproduce this bug either (didnt test it) but I think that you wont get this bug on first run and you must use GF (so maybe team must be at least partially premade or u need to use GF inside finished dungeon?).

Is anyone experiencing this odd game behavior? PC EU btw

I had earned 1 opal mask during the botched Undaunted event in November. Yesterday I got 2 more on the first 2 runs. Since then I've run veteran Darkshade II hard mode several times and never dropped an opal Engine Guardian mask. I don't believe it's supposed to be a 100% drop rate, though. That applies only to the hefty box, and those only contains weapon styles.

Ran the 4 mask motif dungeons repeatedly yesterday using a 4 player premade and the ‘select specific dungeon’ option in group finder. Always did HM and always got at least 1 mask motif drop per run. After running the dungeons 3 times, all four of us had all of the motifs.

Hope that helps

@daemonios
i know it s not 100%. And if this bug does really exist, then it won't be so easy to spot, since you may need some special circumstances for it to happen (i.e. using GF inside dung, premade grp?).

We had this odd experience yesterday with group, where we used GF to get vet dung and then, after port/loading dung setting was set to normal in GF. It was frustrating so we tried serveral ways to fix it (disbanding group, porting without using GF etc.). Today i was leader, so im 100?% sure that i picked vet dung in finder and that i had mode set to veteran (its my default mode). On 4th run (DC2) i checked GF settings after port and it said that dung is "normal".

@FierceSam
Ok, thx.

A guild mate ran 8 times vDC2 HM yesterday and got zero opal motif. Seems like another big failure from ZOS rng system.

Drop rates seems pretty high, got 2 masks on 1st run yesterday, got 1 from spindleclutch after 2 runs today, had the 4th one from nov, so I'm done on the masks with very little grind.

Did a random normal last night and our team had 3 people get each a drop.

I got 3 of 4 in a couple of hours farming with some friends. We ended up getting 4 engine guardian, 4 bloodspawn, and 2 illambris. rng is rng - sorry bud you're having a tough time

I went 1 for 4. Got a mask on my fourth vet HM dungeon, CoH. I did two Spindle II's and two CoH's for my one mask.
