Abysmal drop rate for Ilambris Helmet?

I'm on my 10th run of CoH1 HM with guildies and nobody has seen the motif so far. How low is the drop rate for this? Thought I'd do this every month for the motifs because I'm a little bit of a completionist but this is just terrible.

    I've also never got any... Still I'm glad that 1 run of vCoH1 takes 6 minutes, so that grind is quite fast.

    Yeah, my issue is that if this is the drop rate I just won't bother with longer dungeons. No way I'm running vet Bloodroot Forge in HM 10 times.

    You can buy them from other player if you don't want to grind.

    Thanks for pointing out the obvious.

    I totally did that. Between Midyear Mayhem, the Orsinium event, somewhat limited playtime this month, and having no desire to spend my Undaunted keys on shoulders that are useless to me trying to get a style page when I know that ZOS is going to be doing this monster set style page thing for quite a while...I just bought the two style pages.

    It takes me less time to acquire the gold than it would to farm for these first of many style pages, and my play time is more limited this month.

    For what its worth, on PC/NA I had an MM price of 20k for the shoulder and 80k for the helm, so make of that what you will.

    Judging from other threads about it you guys seem very unlucky or rng hates you or zos altered the droprate >:)
    In my guild it took an average of 4-5 runs to get it, i got mine after 4 runs on the first day...

    I got one in 1 run. Didn’t realize it was a low drop rate, I had been hearing about 50%. I guess that’s how RNG works though. At least they’re not bound.

    No death+speed+HM should have a 50% chance to drop the helmet page at least.

    No point running a faceroll easy dungeon again and again for something ugly with an abysimal drop rate.

    Took about 30 runs to get two of them for me and my wife. She never got any in those 30 runs. Pretty terrible drop rate, HM should give one guaranteed to one player in the group.

    I'm far beyond thirty now I think. Just stopped counting after a time. And didn't get any of these, while people in my group who only did the dungeon like twice or so, at least not as many times as me, got it.....
    I have the nagging feeling that it has something to do with how much damage one does on them. And as a tank I deal everything but damage....

    FYI I was the tank in every run and my wife was probably the highest DPS every run and she didn't get one at all.
