Spawn of Mephala style page - Drop rate bug ?

JiubLeRepenti · March 2024

Hello guys,

(first of all sry for my bad English)

For my very first topic here, I'd like to ask you a question regarding the drop rate of the Spawn of Mephala style page.

I've been farming the dungeon Fungal Grotto II for two days, doing it around 40 times. I obviously have the HM achiev. and trifecta achiev. aswell, and achieved each of these runs in HM.

Alas, not a single drop. And it was the same for all the others team mates (LUI addon shows me who drops what).

Is it just RNG bad luck ? Am I missing something ? Was the drop rate changed with U41 ?

I've been farming style pages for years now, and it always drops "quite" easily. I've never had to wait 40+ runs to get something.

Thanks a lot,

i know others have had to wait 40+ runs for Undaunted style pages so it doesn't seem that odd, but it is an absurdly low drop rate

Thanks for your quick reply.

As previously said, the other strange part is the fact that not a single team mate dropped it, making me think that maybe I was just not in the right dungeon or somewhat.

I gave up farming for style pages - I've run a couple of dungeons probably 100 times, and I've never gotten a drop.

Then I guess I simply have to keep farming, and crossing fingers

the drop rate on monster style pages from the dungeons is always absurdly low, even with the HM achievement its 5% chance of drop so its very easy to do dozens of runs with no drops

its low enough i dont even bother farming for it, i just wait for them to show up on the archive rotational vendor lol

RNG in ESO is downright awful. I've been farming leads trying to complete the entire codex and it has not been uncommon to have to kill dungeon, delve, and world bosses north of 50 times each to get leads.

I remember before 2020 before the RNG update, I made vAC something like 200-300 times for the Medusa inferno staff ahah

Ans bought like 100+ Galen treasure maps for the skin lead.

Btw I made 10 more runs on vFGII (total of 50+), still nothing for me and the mates...

The previous style page (Lady Thorn) dropped like two times in 10-12 runs... Guess it's just a question of luck.

Thanks for giving a drop rate. Didn't know it was around 5%. Pretty low indeed !

its 5% if you have the HM achievement, the base is 2.5% if you do not have the HM achievement

you do not actually have to run the dungeon on HM to get the bonus drop rate, its influenced just by having the achievement for doing HM

Didn't get anything in 65 runs, then got two in a row !

Seems the drop rates Gods were with me this afternoon ahah
