Since the patch now I get no Nirncrux from this survey. I heard you were getting to much pervious to the patch when u got A WHLOE 5... now I got my second survey report (number 2) and I didn't get even a single piece.

This makes me sad as its only my second report I have ever received and it was a waste of time, Its bad enough u don't very often get one let alone get nothing good from them :(

    I don't think they intended on everyone getting nirn every time. They have also increased the chances of getting it in clothier and woodworking writs I do believe

    i have not tried yet, as i am a slow lazy man in crafting but, i was very hopefull i would some day get a nirncrux trait.
    now it seems i will not be allowed, as i waited too long to do it :(

    If you are actually lucky enough to get a survey you should be guaranteed to at least get one bit of nirncrux otherwise u are playing the RNG game 2 times once on hand in and once at the survey place this is a bit ridiculous!

    All the surveys areas I've harvested gave either 5 nirncrux stones or nothing. There is no middle ground.
    Try again tomorrow, you'll get some eventually ;)

    That's not really the point. why not make it your get 3 every time? or at least one. you already have to play the I might get something or nothing game handing in the writs...
    If you dot get any in Surveys sometimes why not make it you get a survey every time you hand in a writ?
    What have a chance upon a chance this greatly reduces your chance ;)

    Has anyone received any Nirncrux since the newest patch?

    It is fine as is. The RNG on survey (especially in BS surveys) should not always grant you nirncrux.

    No nirncrux, no big deal. I got some from a survey, and some from farming. I have no plans to craft nirnhoned items. I have both types for sale for 5.5k. If it doesn't sell, I'll go lower. Or maybe I can trade for Dwemer frames :).

    Only surveys that take you to upper craglorn give nirncrux. I believe that only one of the three takes you there.

    They did not increase anything. Drop chance are still 0, since all of those surveys located in lower Craplorn.

    Indeed.
    The are only 2 viable ways to craft Nirnstone items.
    1h weapons for tanks and Staffs for PVPers.
    Armors with nirnhorned trait give an impressive 2.5% spell resist increase which is about 30 points of spell resistance for medium armor wearer for example.....

    You need to know 9 traits to craft the twice born star set.
    but i have got a nirncrux off a woodworking writ. just one but I did get it.
    yes, it must be in upper Craglorn as that is the only place it drops.

    Yah, and in the future there will 10 trait sets, 11 trait sets and so on. Dedicated crafters need all the traits to craft top tier gear in the future

    Yep, I agree is should take sometime to get them but im not convinced it should be a chance to get a survey report then a chance to get nirncrux. Would rather you get a survey with a chance for nirncrux or there is a chance you get a survey with at least one piece of nirncrux.

    Im glad people are still getting it I was worried it had bugged out in the patch.
