This lead only drops from psijic portals in Southern Elsweyr. I spent over an hour today looking for portals there and couldn't find even one. Harvested SO many runestones. The portals are so rare, it would seem more reasonable for the lead to drop from runestones as well, even if at a lower rate.

Most mythic leads you can do the activity a couple of times a day and then try again another day if it doesn't drop, but this one there's no way to guarantee even one chance a day without hours of work.

Anyone got any tips for a console player (so no add-ons) who is about ready to tear her hair out?

    For me, it took about 8 hours across different sittings to find the lead. I scouted out a circular route of runestones and just ran in circles harvesting them and the psijic portals as they showed up. Good luck.

    Same, it took me the entire last Elsweyr event to get the lead...

    One thing that can help with this lead:

    Every time you 'harvest' a rune node there is a chance that it will respawn as a psijic portal.

    Take an area that is a bit out of the treaded path - ie not in the regular path to dragons/wbs - which has a good density of rune nodes and keep doing this.

    That's how I got mine. it wasn't quick but at least it was a bit less tedious - for me - than running up and down S.Elsweyr hoping to find psijic nodes.

    I would love to be able to gift the one I got the other day to someone who wants that mythic.... I had a dig site in an area outside the Moonlit Cove delve or whatever it's called, and on my way down there from the wayshrine, i stumbled over a portal near the ruin at the tip of the southern headland. The lead was there. I don't really want it, but *shrug*.

    I really wish we could pass ones along that we don't want....

    Yeah this lead was so brutal.
    So many leads are, in fact.
    I've mentioned many times that zos should implement a ramping feature in leads.

    Base rate is likely 1-3 percent for leads.

    If you don't get a lead from what should have dropped the lead, the game should now add likelihood for your next attempt.
    +10 or 20 percent.

    If you don't get it then, again +10 or 20 percent.
    After 5-10 tries (depending on what is chosen as the incremental steps) you would now have a garunteed chance of getting the lead.

    Many of us are busy adults with careers and families. We shouldn't have to farm 30+ hours for 1 lead. That's just madness.
