Do Ancient Orc Motif pages drop from containers or just enemies?

There seems to be mixed information on this. Have any of you got a motif from a container, or should I not waste my time opening them?

    That's where I got one too. I'm just wondering if I should open containers or just farm enemies and bosses.

    They only drop from the main bosses in Old Orsinium , sorta half of the motifs needed, then the other half drops from the other public dungeon bosses.

    Enemies wont drop them and you won`t find them from containers and shizzle, however you may find other motifs:}

    Good luck.

    I got ancient orc shields from a simple dwemer spider mob in Rkindaleft. So you are wrong. Mobs drop them too. That said, yes the bosses will definately have better chances to drop them i guess. But they also drop from mobs.

    I've gotten motifs from both bosses and trash mobs in the public dungeons. They do seem to have a higher drop rate from bosses though. Last night I got 2 of them spending 1.5-2 hrs in old orsinium.

    Coolio, thank you for correction, must have changed then as it was bosses only, Orisinium has been out a while on PC so maybe changed to make it easier:}
