How to make desired Monster shoulders easier to acquire

germainp96b14_ESO
With the new One Tamriel changes monster helms have a 100% drop rate on the final boss of Veteran dungeons. However, desired monster shoulders are still going to be hard to get, regardless of the the possibility to gain 6 undaunted keys a day (great change by the way), due to the large amount of new sets being added to these chests and the 7 traits they can come in. I propose making the shoulders associated with the pledges for the day have a greater chance of dropping than the other shoulders. This could take the form of making it possible to only get the shoulders from those dungeons on the day, EI 63 shoulders (3 dungeons*3weights*7traits), or buffing the chance to getting those shoulders by a factor of 2x or 3x compared to the other monster shoulders. Either of these changes would make farming the shoulders to get your desired sets much easier and closer to being on par with the ability to farm the helm. Let me know what you think.

    They have to do something to make you play repeatedly, there are worse things they could do.

    They are splitting the shoulders into different chests so it's going to be much easier to get the one you want.

    12 shoulder on the first chest (all tier 1 and 2 with their second version), 12 on the second (all tier 3, 4, 5 and VoM, plus two tier 3 second version), 4 on the third (all dlc one). Seem good to me, we already have 12 shoulders in the same chest.

    There will be no more bronze/silver/gold keys. Just generic Undaunted Keys. The old bronze/silver/gold chests will now be differentiated by sets. One chest will have 12 possible shoulders from the base game, one chest will have the remaining 12 possible shoulders from the base game, and one chest will have only the shoulders from DLC dungeons. So if you really want a Heavy Infused Tremorscale shoulder, you can use your keys on the chest that contains Tremorscale set. 12 * 3 * 7 possibilities is still a lot to grind through, but it is much better than 28 * 3 * 7 possibilities to grind through.

    This is going to be such an awesome patch!
