Good 'ol Domihaus....
I'm trying to build a warden PvE build based on bleed damage. Nothing serious, please understand, nothing I'd take into anything outside normal dungeons. Read: JUST FOR FUN!
My idea is to pair Piller of Nirn weapons/jewelry, Dro'zakar armor, and Balorgh monster set. Trying DW/2H axes, obviously for the bleeds from the axes themselves as well as the bleed abilities.
All pieces acquired...even as far as getting a 1h axe. The issue is this weapon has come from a chest.
I've run this dungeon over 70 times this week, and our boy Domihaus seems to only drop restoration staffs.
Not even joking...about 85% of drops have been resto staffs. Once in awhile a jewelry piece or a shield. And the weapons that do actually drop seem to be for the Draugr's Rest set. Not even any Ironblood melee weapons are dropping...just resto staffs.
RNG is RNG...I get that. This, however, seems pretty ridiculous.
Just saying, drop rates on this boss may need looked into.
The frustration is all too real...😖

IonicKai✭✭✭✭You should try grinding for an inferno of burning spellweave or back when it was good a sunderflame dagger. RNG in this game is cruel and the only weapons they ever removed we're ones that couldn't meet the proc conditions.6 -

That's why I clarified this build wasn't for anything serious. Dro'zakar increases weapon damage per bleed effect, and Piller is just another bleed.
But thanks for the insight on the overabundance of resto staffs that are dropping...🤷♂️

But what if the only thing dropping from the boss was a resto staff?
That's what I'm referring to in this post. I'm fine with something rarely dropping. This isn't about that.
This is about 85% of drops being one weapon type. Not the rarity of drops.
Swords dropping?...no.
Daggers?.....no
Axes?....no
Destruction staffs?...no
Resto staffs....oh my goodness yes!
I feel like people are missing the point. It's not about something being rare, it's about only one thing dropping over and over and over.
I could supply all of Tamriel with the lumber from these resto staffs, they drop so much!
Edit to add: Servers just went up and I ran Falkreath hold. My first drop of the day is an Ironblood Resto staff. 😖

✭✭✭✭✭It's pretty well known that RNG in ESO is very "streaky". It is common for the single item to keep dropping over and over again, people complained about it in Maelstrom, undaunted chests, trials and so on. There is nothing weird about your case with all those restos.

All 4 people in my group got a resto staff.
That's not weird?
Edit: Just got the last axe I needed...from a chest.
Weird Domihaus can keep all those resto staffs to himself, and all of Falkreath Hold can burn, for all I care. Let the Minotaurs keep it!!Edited by Kel on November 20, 2019 1:56PM0 -

✭✭✭✭Bleed was good when it ignored resistances, now it's far weaker, just another physical effect. The 133 WD (around 200 WD with all multipliers) you will get from Dro'zakar for an extra bleed will only buff your overall damage by ~3%. Which is negligible.
I guess bleed builds can still be viable to some extent but there are better sets to optimize for that. For example If you pair Deadly Strikes with Blooddrinker (both sets got buffed a bit this patch) and Master's Axes front bar/Maelstrom's Battle Axe back bar, on a Stamina Necromancer (15% bonus to all DoTs https://eso-skillbook.com/skill/rapid-rot). Pillar of Nirn bleed is weak, it will barely do 1K DPS - you can get the same effect from using Stampede every 10s and it's guaranteed, the damage will also be higher than Pilar of Nirn procs. Also the special effect Merciless Charge is treated as a bleed by the game engine AFAIK.
You'll thus have 5 potential bleeds:
- Merciless Charge https://eso-sets.com/set/merciless-charge
- Carve bleed
- Heavy Weapons (2H, passive)
- Twin Blade and Blunt (2W passive, axes)
- Rending Slashes https://eso-sets.com/set/stinging-slashes
Those will be buffed by both Blooddrinker and Deadly Strikes
https://eso-sets.com/set/blooddrinker
Also Deadly Strikes will buff Stampede DoT, and any other physical/poison/disease you will be happening to run.
https://eso-sets.com/set/deadly-strike
Sample build here:
https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Special:EsoBuildData?id=192714
Or you can pair any of the sets with Dro'zakar and see how they work out. As I've shown you have 5 potential bleeds to get up to 1K extra weapon damage (with passives) out of it. https://eso-sets.com/set/drozakars-clawsBeta tester since February 2014, played ESO-TU October 2015 - August 2022, currently on an extended break

✭✭✭@Kel Did you made 70 runs with the same char? If so, try changing char. Rng can change.
When I'm farming gear, I run with my main but also with my alts. Results are never equal, some of my alts get the pieces the others never get. That happen when I was trying to grab the BSW inferno staff."Sweet Mother, sweet Mother, send your child unto me, for the sins of the unworthy must be baptized in blood and fear"- Sons of the Night Mother | VforVendetta | Grownups Gaming EU | English Elders [PS][EU] 2500 CP

OP, I found your problem. This event created an RNG singularity that has affected your account.
In short, you used up all your good RNG for the next 5 years and you will be getting resto staves for a loooong time.

✭✭✭✭✭The RNG can be brutal, especially when farming up specific weapons. Your best option is to save up some gold and offer to buy it from your fellow party members. That substantially increases your odds of getting one. Otherwise you could be at it for months if you get unlucky.
If I were the developers I would consider adding these sets to the undaunted vendors (like they already do with the monster sets). That would help unlucky players get the pieces they need.
