Can we get an increased drop chance on sharpened or maybe try optimizing drops for sets?

Would love to know why they Zos decided to make these 2 traits the most powerful by far is almost all cases but they never drop. Been farming the cove in Malabor Tor for Spinners inferno Sharp....Seen maybe 20 staff drops, All in either charged, infused or decisive....Oh but you know a magicka based set but 2hs and bows dropping with precise and sharpened....Makes so much sense.

    You're complaining about a BoE weapon that you can just buy...

    Try farming BoP gear in sharpened.

    I suggest just buying that staff. They aren't that expensive anymore. You can search for a trader here.

    Just farm mats for a few hours. It's way faster than farming for the actual weapon.

    Grab some stamina gear (Fiord's, Jailbreaker, Darkstride, etc.), some green potions, some stamina food, and run around a place with high node density for a few hours. Depending on how fast you are, you'll have 350k in 3-5 hours (maybe even sooner since mats sell for much more on console than PC).

    Darkstride and prisoners rags = no sprint cost whatsoever
    Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 25 DLCs. 41 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game.

    i dont understand why nirnhoned isn't the best trait- i mean its the one that should be- considering how long it takes to craft.
    they should make it so that thats a crafter can only make 1 nirnhoned weapon every 2 weeks or so- similar to a vampire cycle - to stop saturation of nirnhoned weapons- or give them a shelf life of say- a month. it just makes sense for me for nirn t be the best weapons and for each set to drop in that trait.

    Dungeon and Raid set s yes please increase the amount of weapon drops and optimize drop rates.

    For the love of god, please.

    In a dungeon or raid give each boss a chance to drop a weapon. I mean damn.

    This does not make sense. Limit crafting when there is not a BiS crafted gear for any role seems backwards.

    "2 traits the most powerful by far is almost all cases but they never drop"


    I find they drop most frequently on useless gear. For example, yesterday I got a sharpened frost staff of agility.

    But at any rate, it's not the drop rate that's the main problem. It's the fact that the traits are so imbalanced. If the other traits were more valuable, then it wouldn't be such an issue.

    That's funny because I also got a sharpened Frost staff of Agility yesterday!

    There's definitely something off about the RNG in this game.

    Most of the stamina-based-set staves that I get are sharpened. Two days ago I got an inferno Night Mother's Embrace staff, I saw mother in the name and thought it was Mother's Sorrow...

    I've gotten many Emberflame sharpened lightning staves in CoA1. Been tempted to try a debuff healer with it.

    And I also have a sharpened frost staff of Agility :|

    It's because zos had a team of people secretly spying on all of us and they're sole responsibility is knowing what you're farming for and maliciously stacking the odds against you. The game literally knows what you need. The trick is wanting it without wanting it.

    Maybe the next event will only drop sharpened and divines.
