VMA sharpened bow

Just thought I'd make a little RNG rant thread to help me calm down. So I've been doing VMA for around 6 months, for 2 of these months I've been grinding VMA on 7 of my characters every week (for 7 bonus weekly VMA weapons) and for the other 4 months I did around 4 times a week. I only started counting the amount of non-sharpened VMA bows I've had 2 months ago. So far I've had 42 non-sharpened VMA bows and an estimated 70-80 VMA bows in total NONE OF THEM SHARPENED.

So now that the rant is over I'd like to make a suggestion. It would be nice to give a hard-mode variant of VMA which allows you to pick either a specific trait OR specific weapon at the end.

    Or if that is too hard for ZoS (don't ban me @ZOS_GinaBruno ) they could simply make the lootTables drop rates public.

    If it makes you feel any better OP I did vMA 4 times a day during the Orsinium double event and got jack-all for melee weapons. Only sharpened Lightning staves.

    Then of course I had a terrible run last week on my dunmer mageblade and got the bow as a weekly reward :D

    Sorry OP. Just got mine on my 14th try. If only i had the luck for lightening.

    I dont think i have seen it anywhere but i have a suggestion for Zos. Make VMA weapons tradeable. That way you cant selk it to those that havent earned it. But will give those of us that have a chance to get the trait we are looking for. I would trade the bow in a heartbeat

    I have done 75 runs, 3 sharp bows, 1 sharp maul, 3 sharp restos, 2 sharp infernos, 2 sharp swords....13 dual wield drops...no sharp, only 3 lightning drops at all...ofc all as a magica user all I want is a lightning staff. It does seem that if you are magica you get stam drops and if you are stam you get magica drops.....but sure it's just rng

    For those that have 200++ runs and not what they are wanting....respect

    Jesus. You push out those vma runs quick.

    I was watching Alcasts video. I didnt know an infused weapon on front bar would buff the bow on back bar. Thats huge.

    Hope you have an infused and didn't decon the nirn one. Sharp not so good next patch from what I hear. Surprise!

    I can commiserate with you as I have all sharp vMA, a sharp masters inferno and sharp moondancer and IA staves as well. I am a bit more spotty in other traits so not so good for me.

    I am currently worried for the future of ESO. Population seems like it is in free fall and the cancellation of the North America in-person gathering feels very much like pulling the plug. Kudos on fixing the in-game economy though. Clearly whatever gold shenanigans were happening the last couple years are fixed.

    If you got 1 infused you should feel lucky since that trait is getting a buff in the upcoming patch.
