Ancestral Reach Motif still bugged?

Has anyone been able to check if the Ancestral Reach Motif bug has been fixed since the latest Patch? It wasn't mentioned in the Patch Notes, so I have my doubts.

For those not in the know: the Ancestral Reach Motif, introduced in the Markarth DLC, drops from the wrong source.

According to the in-game Achievements for Markarth, the Ancestral Reach Motif pages are SUPPOSED to drop as leads "occasionally found when digging for Antiquities" as bonus loot.

Instead, you can only find Ancestral Reach Motif page leads as rare drops from Treasure Map Chests found in Western Skyrim, The Reach, or any part of Blackreach currently available. (To expand on their rarity, I had 18 Treasure Maps for those locations, and came away with 3 Ancestral Reach page leads).

So either the drop locations for the Motif are completely incorrect, or the information for the Achievement/Source of the Motif is completely incorrect.

    I would like to know what is going on as well. I did manage to buy four maps and got two motif pages to drop (over a week).

    Probably should've also asked Gina in the opening post if she had any info.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno any idea what's up?

    Tried asking a bunch of times in a previous thread on this topic... got no response. I don’t think it is fixed and your best bet is to keep trying with the rare treasure maps. I finally got what I was looking for but the process was rough and involved stalking the TCC for hours and a lot of luck.

    Same - buuuut I have been stalking those GTs manually on console. <face-palm> Lol. At least I have been getting some good deals on the last few motif #96 pages I need, while I search.

    I wish the consoles had anything remotely similar to the TTC.

    We have to check every vendor manually.

    Just checked on PS4, just to be 100% sure, even though we just got maintenance and not an actual patch.

    Still not fixed. Went after 20 Antiquities in The Reach of varying quality, and not a single Ancestral Reach page.

    Plenty of Indeko runes, Arkthzand Sprockets, and Etched Bronze (The material for Ancestral Reach) though.

    I also did stalk TTC, but in 99% of the cases that treasure map had already been snatched by the time I transported to that vendor. It gives more frustration and loss of time than anything else.

    Anyone check if the newest patch fixed this? It wasn't mentioned in the Patch Notes, so I doubt it, but I can't check myself right now.
