Need Arms Pack Mask Drop Conditions/Boosts Clarified

Goldtistic

I receive multiple conflicting statements from people and just reading the newsposts, regarding the monster set helmet motifs from specific dungeons during their respective Arms Packs, like the Prior Thierric motif at the moment. About their droprates, I don't expect a numerical drop chance, but how does it... work? I've seen people say that you only have to have the hardmode achievement finished, and with account-wide achievements you have an account-wide bonus to your drop chance, permanently for the helm motif. I've seen others say that the helmet motif droprate is only increased for the hardmode run, and there's no increased dropchance after that, only for hardmode runs. Which one is it? I am seriously confused. Just wanted to ask this before I start grinding out Red Petal Bastion hardmodes.

i dont think it has anything to do with the achievement, pretty sure the current dungeon run must be vet HM for the increased drop chance

As I understand it, there's a (low) base chance for the style page to drop on vet. It won't drop on normal.

If you have the achievement for the HM, it doubles the low chance to something that's... still low, but higher than before. You don't need to run it on HM every time.

According to the first article ZOS put out on these, speedrun/nodeath/trifecta achievements affect the drop rate. Only the HM.

if they didnt change anything from 4 years ago, then it would just require getting the achievement for HM at least once to have improved chances

Mask has 2.5% to drop. If u have Achievement for HM it doubles to 5%.

It's pretty clear, kill last boss maybe get style page.
