    Got a bow yesterday. Not that I needed another.

    You need to do enough runs to get a bow to drop. It depends on how lucky you get. My guess, off the top of my head, is that the odds might be close to 1 in 14ish but that does not mean you only have to do 14 runs. it could be double that.

    Much better than how it used to be when the trait mattered.

    Edit: complaining here will not do much. Many had to get the right trait when they were working to get theirs. Odds were like 1 in 100.

    It could be 1 run it could be 100 or any other number. That's how random works unfortunately

    Took close to 200 runs to get all the weapons I needed in decent traits. At least you have transmutation and a much easier experience with power creep now, so feel for the poor souls that did it when it first came out.

    Didn’t realize the event was coming up. I had been focusing entirely on pvp the last few weeks and doubly so during mid-year mayhem. Beat it for the first time after starting it nearly a year ago (although I kinda gave up for months at a time with a few tries in between). Then I beat it again and again. It gets soooooooo much easier after you beat it a coulple times. The third time actually gave me the most trouble because I forgot not to interrupt the argonian in stage 7. I was like, “man, I can just shoot him with crushing shock, and I don’t have to get in the protection bubble!, why wasn’t I doing this before?” Then he would one shot me again and again... gotta remember the mechanics.

    Anyway, I got a pretty balanced pull of weapons!

    Got:

    2x 2h - axe and maul
    2x dw - dual maces and axe/sword combo
    3x inferno staves
    1x Lightning
    1x ice
    1x resto
    3x bows
    1x s+b

    How the f you guys are getting such *** ring is beyond me... sorry.

    I've been doing vMA for a long, long time. My advice to anyone who is getting burnt out on it is to stop. Come back to it later, and clear it once per week, every week. If you're able to get on the weekly leader board that will guarantee you 3 chances per week to get the weapons you need.

    I've completed it 4 or 5 times total. 2 Bows, Inferno Stave, Ice Stave, Sword and Shield, Dual Wield, and Two Hander. So the bows definitively drop.

    dude be glad there is retraiting, back in my days you might get a bow but if it was powered or charged you would just have to go again.
    Plus on Top you have 750 CP which is just ridiculous for content thats scaled around 300cp.
