How often do you see `Powdered Mother of Pearl` x 3 as reward for alchemy writ daily quest?
I didnt see it for months, until now... They started to drop about one (~two) week ago.
Your thoughts? Extremely low drop chance or hidden bug, which had been silently fixed?

    I'm in the process of recording all rewards from alchemy vessels to see how much of each I get.
    In 43 days doing writs with 15 characters (645 alchemy vessels received), I got Powdered Mother of Pearl 6 times, which results in a drop rate of 0,93%.

    Once I've collect more data I can post full results, but until now, the top rewards are:
    - Blue Entoloma (101 times)
    - Lady Smock (100 times)
    - Wormwood (95 times)
    - Water Hiacynth (94 times)
    - Dragonthorn (89 times)

    And the least frequent are:
    - Clam Gall (1 time)
    - Powdered Mother of Pearl (6 times)
    - Emetic Russula (11 times)
    - Luminous Russula (18 times)
    - Bettle Scuttle (23 times)

    I've never received Torchbug Thorax or Mudcrab Chitin.

    The 2000g price per piece (approx) represents drop rate quite clearly :)

    You can get them from the pouches that drop when fishing in summerset.

    i started to get them after creating this thread xDD
    i think there was some hidden bug and devs have fixed it already...

    I've never gotten any of these yet, though I was getting Corn Flower (x3) on a regular basis. So I guess it was a fair trade-off.

    I think the drop rate is fine, they are hard to get but not impossible and with a little work I can gather a personal weeks supply in a few hours running the beaches of Summerset.

    Clam Gall's however feels like they are allot harder to get, for every 10 pearls i get in Summerset I might only get 2 Clam Gall's while my food habits require about 6/day.

    The drop rate in satchels seems even lower, and I might have to spend up to 100k telvars to just get one drop, while the same investment usually net's me about 20 pearls.
