Provisioning

JD4WD · September 2015

I decided to level up provisioning on my level 10 alt and I just hit 50. I was wondering, since I can't get into Craglorn until veteran rank, do I still have a chance to get the Psijic Ambrosia fragments from the daily writs?

According to ZOS, yes. But the drop rate in Craglorn is already abysmal and it's supposedly much worse for writs outside of Craglorn.

I have 8 chars at provisioning 50 and 4 of them are just low level storage mules. Not a single fragment for them since Ambrosia launched.

I have received only 3 fragments from my L6 provisioner (and one of them was a duplicate!). I have also received a fragment from one of my L2 provisioners (unfortunately, also a duplicate). So, it is possible, but the drop rate is lower.

Good to know, thank you! No fragments yet on my level 10 alt. On my rank 11 main I got one so far in the week that I've been doing the writs.

Apparently the chance drops per writ level. So given the writ chance (for me) appears to be 1 in 50, so, if you use a linear multiplier increase, then a person doing Recipe Improvement 5 (RI5) Writs has a 1 in 100 chance but a person doing RI1 Writs has a 1 in 250 chance ie is likely to get one every 250 days. I can tell you that in the last 79 days, since it was introduced, my 2 RI6 Characters have gotten 8 Ambrosia Fragments and the other 6 non-vet characters have gotten none.

#Edit; Yes, I know that the numbers I quoted don't match the chance I quoted. In the last fortnight RNG decided to just dump 5 in my lap.
