    2 Strongboxes/1 memento fragment
    Day 8 .. 8 boxes, two pet fragments and two memento fragments!

    This will make it possible to get one of the rewards so far, going for the pet!

    Chose this answer as the most common scenario on my accounts. 7 accounts, 8 strongboxes, 2 fragments (one for memento and one for pet if I remember). I didn't spend more then 15 minutes getting tickets and the first strongbox on any account. On the account where I got a second strongbox it was still 15 minutes. I got tickets and one strongbox at the start of Tsofeer Cavern (doing daily, not doing quest, level 15 character), and the second strongbox from the delve boss at the end.

    An update on my drops

    Day 1, Thur: 7 accounts, 8 strongboxes - 1 account got 2
    Day 2, Fri: 7 accounts, 8 strongboxes - 1 account got 2
    Day 3, Sat: 7 accounts, 9 strongboxes - 2 accounts got 2
    Day 4, Sun: 7 accounts, 7 strongboxes
    Day 5, Mon: 7 accounts, 7 strongboxes
    Day 6, Tues: 7 accounts, 7 strongboxes
    Day 7, Wed: 7 accounts, 6 strongboxes - 1 account got 0 (did get tickets though)

    I haven't tracked fragments because I have been using tickets on 6 of the 7 accounts where I don't care for the current Indrik evolution. All accounts have completed either the memento or the pet. One account is close to completing both. My main account where I'm not buying fragments with tickets only has 2 of each (that's also the account that didn't even get a box on Wednesday. YAY!).

    I'm still of the opinion that less then 50% of the boxes even has a fragment, but I've also received several that have 2 fragments, and one that had 3 fragments.

    I'm also still not spending more then 10-15 minutes, per account, trying to get strongboxes. Usually just the daily delve, occasionally delve and boss.

    I've had no fragments in the last 3 boxes. I think one of the issues is that if you have a large bit of the fragments, they don't repeat so you get empty boxes 99% of the time.

    I'll be getting the berry and the pet at least. I don't care about the gravestake.

    at this point given how out of the entire event, my main account on either EU or US got fragments on two of those days - i have accepted that memento is just not happening for me. well, not on main account anyways, steam based side account is much luckier for some reason.
    dirty worthless casual.

    Still possible for them to ninja-buff the drop rate or the drops per box. Feels like I've been seeing more people getting more than one Fragment per box but that could be just excited people posting on the forums.

    TBTH the memento to strongbox rate seems fair-ish. Not great, but not absolutely terrible. It's the actual strongbox rate that seems absolutely absurd to the point of "Why even bother with saying people can get extra strongboxes"

    NA main account 8 boxes, 1 pet piece drop, 3 memento pieces. It will take all the tickets I have from this event to complete the pet and I'm ignoring the memento.
    EU main account, 8 boxes, 3 pieces from the pet, 2 from the memento.
    NA alt account 6 boxes, 4 pet drops, 1 memento.
    Why my luck is so much worse for my primary is odd and frustrating for me.

    hey if that happens, i won't complain. but if it doesn't ... I'm very annoyed but I'll live. it just kinda edges me closer into direction of spending less and less money on ESO

    Day 1 - 1 fragment (grave stake)
    Day 2 - 2 fragments (voriplasm)
    Day 3 - nothing
    Day 4 - nothing
    Day 5 - nothing
    Day 6 - nothing
    Day 7 - 1 fragment (voriplasm -> pet completed)
    Day 8 - nothing

    So I wandered to Summerset to help people beat down world bosses because that's a lot of fun! I also learned I'm not a bad tank... even when my tank is only wearing half of his actual tanking gear. The other person who was with me also specced as a tank died to the griffon bosses. I felt bad. I mean, I kept trying to take the aggro, but they kept taking it back and.... yeah. Griffons. Those feathers. Mostly the claws and beak. Deadly to that poor little warden tank.

    2 Strongboxes/1 memento fragment
    Day 9 and perhaps a turning of the tide, for me at least?

    Yesterday I got a random drop (my first of the event), so that brings my total boxes for the event up to 9!

    In that random box and this morning's box I gained in each a pet fragment and a memento one, bringing my event total to 3 pet fragments and 3 memento fragments!

    So after buying 5 extra fragments in total with earned event tickets, along with the new berry, I have the pet and only need 3 fragments to get the memento.

    In the next 4 days (if I can login at the right times), I have the chance of getting 12 more event tickets and at least 4 more boxes .. and while I want to save tickets for the next event so I can get the Indrik as soon as it starts, if I was to spend those tickets I should only be one fragment from completing the rewards and 1 in 4 boxes are not bad odds!

    Seems I've been more lucky in this event than I originally feared .. good luck to everyone else!
