antiquity lead drop chance

So I've been farming leads for the Ring of the Wild Hunt, again. I already have it on one character and now I want it on a second one. I got the leads from Greenshade, Glenumbra, and Malabal Tor on the very first try but the lead in Murkmire is ever elusive. I farmed world and delve bosses for 6 hours last night and nearly 2 hours today, on 2 different toons without a lead drop. I don't know if it's the event screwing things up or if RNG just hates me but honestly, I'm just too tired to care anymore. :(

    I feel your pain but it is a necessary evil.

    As of next week, you won't need to farm anything if you don't feel like it. Just reconstruct as many Rings of the Wild Hunt as you want via the Sticker book for 25 Transmute Stones each.

    But that said, there is always a lead that takes a while. For my guildie, it's the one from Elden Hollow.

    Meanwhile, I got the Artaeum Master Angler on almost 4 characters before I got the last lead for the Thrassian Stranglers.

    Just don't focus too much on it. If you're at it for an hour and nothing drops, go do something else and come back another day.

    Good advice. Thanks.

    These items are Elder Scrolls Online mythic items.

    These items are not WoW mythic items.

    Note the difference ...

    I never could get into WoW. I guess I see how it could appeal to some but it was never really my thing.

    I found the delves to be the most time consuming as it could take hours, and the fishing one.
    Need the lead from darkshade 2 and hope to get it on Friday then its pledge.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    Fishing on Artaeum was the worse one for me, and because nodes emptied really fast, it was a tedious back and forth for 4-5 hours.

    i'm having an hard time finding lead in bg daily reward and Lancers from cyro conquest dailies :s ... all other leads have been relatively easy to find (IC leads and arx corinium dungeon were quite annoying but doable)...i hoped to finish Codex entries before markarth DLC but won't happen i guess :D

    Four hours straight of killing mammoths with no lead is ridiculous. I finally stopped because it's just not worth it. The hours it takes to get a lead makes it not fun. Wish they would change that feature. :/
    Heavy is the crown.
