Zos please,
Over the past two weeks alone.
Been running all these daily quests without fail on 3 toons, 5 for gold coast dailies.
Theives heists
DB Sacrements
Wrothgar world boss
Gold coast dailies.
Drop rates.
Completed Thieves guild motif
Completed DB motif
ONE MALACATH Motif, just swords.
2 Order of the hour, swords and shields.
0 Minotaur.
Please, these daily quest motifs need a buff, nothing worse than having to solo the Mag Ogre for I kid you not... Rubedo Gloves of Magika.......
Please make these dailies worth while, this isn't RNG being poor this is just a poor drop rate.

✭✭I don't think they are in need of a buff honestly.. You are just unlucky it seems.. besides, unless I'm misstaken, Wrothgar, thieves and DB won't give you minotaur pages.. Pretty sure that's restricted to the 4 Gold Coast dailies0 -

The list was more to the fact that it's got the lowest drop rate. 0 in 22 minotaur dailies is a new low.PC Master Race

Khairiah✭✭✭Im pretty sure the Minotaur motifs only drops from doing the Looming Shadow quest. But I do agree that the droprate on the daily quest motifs are rather bad, but they dont need a buff..0

DurzoBlint13✭✭✭✭Im on a long dry streak too. 58 minotaur dailies since my last page. I do 8 characters every day and most of time I am doing both quests each day. 58 minotaur bosses killed and no motif.0

✭✭✭✭I gave up on the motif chase a long time ago.
I like xivkyn and DC style. I buy individual motifs from certain styles (like minotaur heads).
I'm not doing 6 dailies to get a belt motif.2 -
Carl-lan✭✭✭✭Yeah it's terribly low. I think it needs and increase. Did it for two weeks straight until I finally got 1 chapter... BELTS. Stopped doing it after that, haha. Prices have dropped now though in the guild stores, but still.0 -

✭✭If they upped the drop rate, everyone would have them in no time I think it's ok to let people work for it 
Besides, I'm pretty sure the drop % is the same as other motifsEdited by Daemons_Bane on September 21, 2016 10:21AM0 -

RoyalPink06✭✭✭✭✭I agree, it's brutal. I just don't have enough time in a day (during the week anyway) to do the kvatch dailies on all my characters, so it's been very slow for me too. Same with Order Hour.
I also wish they would just make those 2 quests available to pick up, instead of having to waste so much time waiting around for people to share with you.NA PS40 -

No both kvatch, alternates daily.
Anvil is delve quest.

This. After all, Order Hour and Minotaur should have the same drop rate.Guildmaster of Power With Numbers in PS4 NA Server's Aldmeri Dominion.

✭The drop rate for Minotaur and Order of the Hour is very low.
I've been running 3 toons, 3 - 6 missions a day depending on if people will share since the update dropped on PS4.
I am at 6 Minotaur, 10 Order, and 12 Dark Brotherhood.
I have over 200 Fungal Spores and Peral Sand they have kept these low on purpose this one believes.

tklawson✭✭✭I get usually 1 a day, but 75% it is one of the 6 I already have. I have gotten legs 4 times & have been running 4 toons for about 3 weeks.0

Synfaer✭✭✭✭✭I've complete 130 arena/folly quest over the last 25 odd days on 3 characters and received 32 motif pages (about a25% drop rate). I've almost got the full sets with a little trading and will retire from my motif farming family in the next few days and buy the remaining few i need.0

✭✭✭✭✭I had a harder time with Order of the Hour, @DRXHarbinger ... so your poor luck is all attributable to RNG.
I can say that it took just over 2 weeks to get full sets of both motifs doing dailies on all eight (8) characters (with some trading with other players).
So, if you can manage dailies on more characters, that will certainly improve your chances.0 -

Ya sorry, I shoulda been more specific on that. I meant the 2 Kvatch dailies. I don't bother with the Anvil ones personally, cuz I don't need and/or want anything you get from doing those.NA PS40 -

This is part of your problem: You should only be waiting around as a last resort. The strategy I use is as follows:
1.) Upon logging in, check which daily you have.
2.) Check zone chat for any existing groups for the quest you DON'T have.
3.) If a group exists for the quest you don't already have join it. Upon joining the group, notify your groupmates that you can share your quest after running the current one--this saves you all from having to find another group to run it with.
3a.) If no group with the opposite quest exists, join one doing your quest - sometimes people volunteer to share, as above. If no one offers, ask.
3b.) If no groups exist AT ALL, start one. I don't know why but some people have this irrational fear of right clicking a name and selecting 'invite to group' but have no problem joining an existing one. As with 3a, ask people if they can share the other quest once the current one is complete.
4.) Remember to thank people for the group (and the share, if applicable). This is purely for the purpose of good manners and fostering a healthy in-game community; as far as I know it doesn't affect the drops, but it makes running the quests more of an interaction between fellow players and less press button->get loot.
This strategy admittedly does nothing for the RNG, but it should at least save you time. I have noticed it's easier to get a group together for my AD and EP characters than DC.#proud2BAStarObsessedLoony
