Deetra Grotto, bugs and whatnot: Phial of Tainted Blood drops, buggy or intended?

So far, getting 1 every day seems fast and easy, but staying to farm has yielded really no results for me. But I have not wasted much time on the same day farming either.

Are they intended to drop only once a day, or is it that the drop CD is longer than past years? As in 1h or so.
It feels kinda bad that they're going this way, that they decided to go this way w motifs was bad enough, cutting droprates of fragments to daily one feels just a way to artificially dilate content.

While at it @ZOS_Kevin , I think new public dungeon is considered a regular group instance, at least in terms of porting to it.

This seems in keeping with other PD fragments drop rates. The West Weald PD drop rates were exceptionally high.

I've had 2 drop in one day, so it's not limited in that way, it's just a low rate.

I think the droprate decreases fundamentally after the first drop in a day. First one seems to drop quickly , then I have not made any progress and gave up on it. Thus farming the skillstyle takes 25 days in general. Not sure why it was coded like that , because it is rough in comparison to other skillstyles. Purp eviscerate should be easier to obtain.

They changed it back in Blackwood iirc that you got the first one easily and any other that day would be very low drop rate. In past public dungeons I’ve had more than one in a day but not this one yet.

However apart from my first clear when I went through all the areas got all the leads and bosses etc I’ve never spent any extra time beyond my first drop per day.

Just do the it once per day and keep Zos happy you’re logging in every day to have lots of fun farming in a very rewarding way….

Yeah, it’s a grind but at least you get one drop fairly quickly. I remember the Scaly Cloth grind prior to the change and I could spend hours in there and not get a single drop. It is better than that, at least.
