Bloodspawn shoulders drop rate

Osukā · November 2016

Hello!

I just have a quick question, what's the drop rate of Bloodspawn shoulders with One tamriel and all the new monster sets? I've opened so far around 20 chests trying to get some shoulders of Bloodspawn and nothing... So far I've gotten all the other shoulders I wanted, such as Velidreth Impen/divnes, Kena, Skoria Divines/Impen, Selenes Impen/Divines but 0 Bloodpsawn, is there something wrong?

I think I'm opening the correct chest, since I'm following this image and I did the same question to players in-game

Am I very unlucky or the drop rate just came down so bad? Or is it there any bug about Bloodspawn shoulder's that I haven't noticed?

Thanks!

I have the opposite problem. I've gotten too many Blood Spawn shoulders and no Kra'gh. :=

What other sets were you getting when you used your keys trying to get Blood Spawn?

Your very unluckey. I half think this game has an algorithm that reduces the drop rate for certain usefull items based on typicall armorclass and actuall class.

First, what you need to do is make sure that you are opening the correct chest.
You can do that by looking at the picture, but note that some Undaunted enclaves have the left and right chest mirror swapped.
So, don't open the "left" chest.
Make sure the chest is named "Maj al Ragath's Reward Chest".

20 Keys is a really small number, you can farm that amount of keys in only 4 days. You may simply be unlucky with the drops.

What I want you to realize is that you won't simply be given a good shoulder.
You really need to farm pledges for keys. Every day.
There are 12 different sets in that chest, combined with 8 different traits you can get, in one of 3 weights.
This makes for a total of 288 different combination of shoulders you can get from that one chest.
That's 0,34% chance of getting a specific shoulder with a specific trait and in a specific weight.

Don't get discouraged, keep any Bloodspawn shoulder regardless of trait, and replace it once you get a better one.
It should not take long to replace Training and Prosperous, but it might take a while until you get the right combination of weight and trait.

Remember, on average, you would need to get your hands on 288 Keys to get exactly what you want.

The thing is that haven't gotten any Bloodspawn at all -_- I swear for god that I have every other Shoulder form that chest, Maj al, everything but bloodspawn.

I think that the one I've getting very frequently is Chokethorn, Followed by Engine guardian, Kragh and Malubeth. Dude, for real Idk what's happening lol and I think that I've been tryging to get Bloodspawn since a while ago, but nothing I probably spend more keys than 20 already

The picture is not correct - Blood Spawn drop from the old bronze chest. It drops but I'm having trouble getting a heavy sturdy one

There are twelve shoulder pieces in Maj's chest, so you have an 8.33% chance of getting a specific shoulder when you open the chest once.

This means, if you open Maj's chest 53 times, you have a 99% chance to get one or more Blood Spawn shoulders. This drop rate is actually better than it was before if I recall correctly. Of course if you are after a specific weight and specific trait, you can effectively multiply the number of keys required by ~25.

It's still a tough grind, but just getting a shoulder is easier now than ever with six keys per day, getting a perfect weight/trait however is still a nightmare.

I just opened another 4 chests and nothing. it's official now. I'm not trying to get Bloodspawn anymore from now lmao
