Evergreen Style Pages drop rate

Rishikesa108

We are at the eighteenth out of twenty day of New Life Event. My husband and I attended the event every day, always getting 10 coffers each.
So far, I've only gotten 8 Evergreen Style pages in total, while he's gotten 18. I wonder if being in a group could skew the Style Pages drop rate in favor of just one member of the group.
I consider this fact very serious, if so.

I would say it's just rng.
With just 180 drops there definetly can be a big gap in drops.
You could just do the math if you want.

Pretty sure it's just RNG. One of my accounts only got 1 Evergreen style page. The other got nearly all of them, no duplicates. C'est La RNG

I thought they drop no more than one a day, but at least one a day...

It’s rng if you get it, but once you do get it it starts a 24 hour cooldown. So yeah in 20 days of the event you can get max 20 pages

not quite, I got 3 pages in a day
if I had to guess it is more every page you get reduces the drop rate by XXX amount, stacking without limit, but resetting after 24 hours

May just be RNG. I completed the full style on 2 accounts a couple days ago.
I did buy one last page but that was only bcuz I'd run out of things to spend tickets on lol.
Yesterday I actually got one of the pages I'd used tickets for, in an event box. Go figure

Must be a bug. It was reported on PTS to have 24 hours cool down. And, since you are only one so far to have that, it even more points to a bug, also.

Additionally, just as FYI, they introduced this new “mechanic” for most of the 2022 events where the “one new” style page was added with a 24 hour cooldown, and “older” style pages had no cooldown. So this isn’t new thing.

Also, having a bug isn’t new for ESO either

Are you sure it's three Evergreen pages? And you're not counting Nord Carved?

So the way it works is that Evergreen has a daily cooldown (resetting at 0600 UTC with dailies, not 24 hours). Once you've gotten your Evergreen drop for the day, all subsequent pages will be Nord Carved. However, Nord Carved will not drop until you've gotten your daily Evergreen drop (i.e., your first page of the day will always be Evergreen).

What this means is that if you want to collect Evergreen pages, then you should open boxes until you get one, and then stop and save them for the next day; this way, every page you get will be Evergreen with zero Nord Carved. On the other hand, if you want to collect the older Nord Carved (after all, you can just buy Evergreen with tickets, which you can't do with Nord Carved), then it's better to save multiple day's worth of boxes and then open them all at once, in which case you'll be limited to just one Evergreen and all the other page drops will be Nord Carved.

I think @notyuu confused "Evergreen Style Pages" with "Nord Carved Style Pages". Also a friend of mine did the same mistake. It's possible to drop just one per day.
But going back to the initial question... I did my tests and I experienced that when I'm not in a group with anyone, I drop 1 new Style Page (Evergreen) per day. If, on the other hand, I'm in a group with my husband, only he drops 1 new Style Page per day. I believe this is a bug.

Event is over and I did it almost every day on 3 accounts for a total of about 4 - 5 pages. The RNG on these really suck, I had to buy them, lucky I have lots of gold ha ha.

I know for a fact I did not get them confused, even got an addon that marks unknown styles/recpies/motifs with a very big very visible red mark, and all three pages, which only dropped on the second day mind you, didn't get a single page since then, were marked with the "unknown style" mark, meaning they could not have been the Nord Carved Style, seeing as I knew them all from last year

I think I only got 2 drops. Bought the rest from Impresario.

I might just be seeing patterns in random data, but it seemed to me that I was getting a lot of drops at the start of the event and this tapered off to none in the last week (once I already had all of them in any case).
