Has anyone tested the mechanics/behavior regarding furnishing plans in daily quest boxes?

Let's say you get a blue or purple furnishing plan from the first daily world boss reward coffer. Is there some type of cooldown like there is for some motifs? Does it follow the general theories regarding looting furnishing plans from containers (no cooldown on greens, short cooldown on blues, longer cooldown on purples)?

Is it worth doing more dailies/opening more reward coffers to try to get more plans or is it futile?

Bumping this one time since it got 0 responses and was knocked of the first page.

I'm stunned that no one even offered an opinion based on anecdotal evidence claiming it to be gospel!

This is some thing I’ve always wondered as well. I’ve heard different things and ideas about this over a long period of time, but never anything concrete really.

I have no clue. It's not something I ever mess with. If I want a plan, I find it on a trader in Vivec and buy it. I don't do WB dailies.... hate that sort of thing - not to mention that I simply can't DO them.

I have asked this question before as well.

While doing daily quests in Blackwood on multiple toons I would tend to open the first reward and get a purple motif and style mat and gear, then nothing but single gear piece afterward.

I don’t often get any structural plans except the same green plans over and over.

Now once I get any motif pages or structural plans I stop opening boxes. I am afraid like the one per day per account for motif pages that the structural plans behave the same, or perhaps don’t drop if I get any motif plans as well.

No confirmation on this from any source, though.

For style motifs, there is a 20 hour accountwide cooldown.

For furnishing plans, I would assume that the shorter character-specific looting cooldown still applies, but I haven't really tested that, so that is just an assumption.

It would be nice if some of the data miners would look for this sort of stuff too from time to time and not just what's new and coming soon - give us stats/facts and %'s on this sort of stuff please!

I agree, and always think this too when they realease datamines of the new content. I mean, it would just be great if ZOS realeased the data and droprates, and didn't leave it up to the extra dedicated individuals to figure out for the benefit of us all, and also because it just sucks when for instance plentiful harvester is broken, and only fixed because somebody bothered to document the droprates were too low and contacted ZOS.

FWIW.

I can confirm the following. I've received 2 new purple furnishing plans over a 3 hour span on the same toon. One came this morning on the first delve coffer I opened along with a House Hexos motif. The second one came 10 minutes ago from a world boss coffer after opening 5 of them. I did not get a new motif from the world boss coffers. Oddly, the two epic plans were the same one (Praxis Fargrave Window, Medallion).
