Motif Farming Mechanics.

With the introduction of Dwemer Motif's in 1.5 there has been a lot of talk again about how to efficiently farm motifs.
I done as much research as I can and spoken with various people hearing all manner of differing information about the mechanical side of motif farming.
The common mechanic I have come across is that after successfully finding a motif of any kind your chances to find motifs again is decreased by a % making it harder to farm. Apparently there is a developer post out there confirming this but I haven't managed to find it after multiple searches.
Have there ever been any confirmed background mechanics in the way motifs can be farmed or is it just a standard RNG with people having good and bad luck.

✭I think I have the worst luck, I look in ever nook and cranny , every where I go, I have not found a motif of any kind in the last 2 to three months, and I play a lot and I look a lot, every where, I have guildies who have found several pages of the new motif.0 -

✭✭Open every container in Dwemer Ruin's for the pages. I found two pages in under 1 hour. Only 18 more to go...@ֆȶɛʋɛƈǟʍքֆօʊȶ⍟

See this is the thing which makes me think the game has a static RNG and it's luck rather than some kind of diminishing percentage to stop farming.@Turelus - EU PC Megaserver

elwhy✭✭✭What's the trick with pots and urns getting empty about 10-15 minutes after farming a dwemer dungeon? I thought there was something, but relogging, quitting, and switching dungeons aren't working for me.0 -

There's a bug that's causing the pots/urns to be empty. Last I heard, it should be fixed with the next incremental patch.----

lordspyder✭✭✭✭✭I use multiple characters of varying levels to farm, as soon as the containers go empty, I switch to another one. But I've only found 2 pages. Both of them the belt...0 -

Yea, that's what I mean. I know it's a bug, but how are people farming for an hour straight is what I was curious about.0 -

I do it by switching characters. Out of my 3 main characters, By the time the third one is finished, the 1st character is able to start it up again. Too, a considerable amount of that time is also spent harvesting constructs for the Scraps as well.

✭I spent a good few hours trying to find some pages last couple days. Manged to get 3, then today i found a 4th and typical of my luck it's one i already have. The pots do seem to stay empty for me after looting the place though. Although they do seem to refresh after 30 minutes or so.0
