Did you stealth nerf nirncrux droprate?

I remember they increased the droprate of the nirncrux some patch notes ago. I have been farming for 3 hours, and saw only one fortified nirn.
I used to farm upper crag in 1,5 when the droprate was even lower, and I usually got 1 nirn each route I did.

Finally a reason not to play League of Legends

    I still want an explanation for why Veteran level 12 warlock rings were originally stealth nerfed in Aetherian Archive about 2 years ago.

    Stealth nerfs really hurt community morale.

    The actual number of nodes has been cut. I ran a whole loop of craglorn and came away with 51 rub ire and 27 silk...didn't see another player at all. Just barren land.

    Yes, I noticed it as well.

    I remember when they increased drop rate of nirn some time ago and I had not big problems with finding it.

    Now after hours of farming I can't find even a single one... :/

    If they really nerfed it, what was the point of increasing it before?

    It's a chance per node. So there will be times when you're fortunate and a lot of times when you're not, regardless of how many nodes overall you take. Don't look for predictability in what amounts to chaos.

    Game was scaled to One Tamriel ....who knows
    If I mean after one Tamriel ....I've seen less but then again I've found 2 in one month on Xbox one NA max crafter

    I recall prior to One Tamriel ppl said not to max crafting to get drops.

    Shrug who knows with ZOS devs

    Maybe ZOS are preparing for housing, thats why, so you cant start to gather rare materials right now for easy future.
    People already talk about how you will need tons and tons of crap to make some small furnitures yourself, so get ready for tedious grind.
    Because otherwise you aint going to buy from crown shop, right!?
