Hello guys,
yesterday I was opening some writs and to my amazement of the 80 writs I had only 1 writ that had a glass armor scrap, of which I need 10 for one page.
Then I figured, how is that possible? First I found out that alchemy & enchanting writs did not award glass armor scraps, in my opinion they should as the drop chance is very very low. On top of that of the 20 writs I did open I still got only 1 writ, this would mean I would need months to gain glass armor motif.. unless ofcourse I buy it in the crown store for 5k (but hell, I am a subscriber I should not be forced to buy it because the drop chance is so pathetic!).
For that reason I suggest to make some changes to the glass armor motif drop chance, this is to make it more fair while not making it very easy to acquire as I like something that takes longer to acquire (unless it's clearly set up be extremely difficult so it will be sold more often in the crown store).
1.Glass armor motif scraps drop from all writ boxes at a chance of 25% per box on max level.
2.Add repeatable daily quests that let you hand in materials (high quantity to make it something you won't do too often) for one glass armor page scrap.
3.Add a very small chance for glass armor motif scraps to drop from material deposits.
4.Add a very small chance for bosses of group dungeons to drop merethic restorative resin. Would be a nice way to make dungeon loot more interesting.
With these 4 changes I think that glass armor will be less punishing to acquire, but still difficult. It will also make it less obvious that glass armor is a grind with the goal of making us pay 5k crowns in the crown store.
My 2 cents on the subject.
