Hi all,

I have just done the two dailies from the Gold Coast with 10 characters today and only got ONE motif. So that is 20 quests for 1 motif which equates to 5% drop rate.

Is this for real?!

    5% drop rate is generous for ZoS!

    Some days are better than others. You can do both WB dailies and both Delve dailies if someone shares the quest of each you don't get. So could do 40 quests per day with chance at those motifs. 48 if you have all 12 character slots.

    It's a massive time sink, I've personally been wondering why I don't just buy the motifs instead of farm.

    I've gotten a motif from every daily I've done since the patch, I figured it was 100% drop

    If you are talking about Assassin's motif, that is completely different as they drop from the bosses and yes the drop rate for those is pretty high.

    Yeah. I've gotten every motif so far, but think I'm gonna give up on these. I might do the dailies and sell if I get lucky. But I'm not gonna waste time. I'll probably buy them eventually when they're down to 20-30k a piece.

    No I'm talking about the box you get from the daily quest, I think I've done 6 or 7 since the patch and had a motif in every one.

    It doesn't make sense that some people get 100% drop chances while others get 5% though

    Yes it does. It's random. Some people just randomly get lucky. 20, 40, or "every time I've done it" aren't large enough sample sizes to mean anything.
