    Would have you preferred if instead of this way we could have earned them like - "obtain 100 guatanteed fragments from the geyser shell/dolmen chest and combine them to obtain the tradable Style Replica page"?

    We would have had to farm 500 things to obtain every piece, but it would have been guaranteed.
    Would this have been better?

    I was thinking about this myself but I'm curious what people think.
    Feel free to create this poll if you like XD

    This whole "Make access absurdly rare and random" crap never works. The joy those who get lucky feel never balances the salt felt and expressed by those on the other side of the die roll.

    Kind of surprising that in this era of ESO collectibles they still do this this way. Easy enough to make these things rare - follow the pattern of the timbercrow wanderer costume - have every geyser/wb/etc drop a fragment, require some number of fragments to combine to form the item. The number of fragments could be tailored to the dev desired frequency of the drop, and the player will know exactly where they stand.

    I'd say your characters appearance applies to this. I mean, I seriously don't know what computer games you've been playing because why do you think every other MMO and RPG out there has armor appearances that get cooler as you make your way through the game?

    Does not-fully-looting affect RNG?

    I'm always leaving some trash in the geyser shell to not fill my inventory... Could this mess up my RNG for the drop?

    Nope. It's just RNG. Either you get the page (from the most likely less than 1% drop rate) or you don't.

    Thanks for the info!

    I'm 230+ geysers in, hopefully it is around the corner...
