Drop rate changes?

ElderOfTamriel · September 11

Hey everyone

So i wondered if they changed the drop rates of the rare Vvardenfell plant drops. I used to farm Vvardenfell nodes for over a year now and then and did got about 1 drop every 800-900 nodes. Sometimes even 3 drops in only 300 nodes. I started farming again after Update 42 and now i cant get any drops whatsoever. Im now over 3600 nodes in and havent gotten a single plant drop yet... Either im EXTREMELY unlucky or they messed something up/changed the drop rates of these plants. I havent found anything written about it in either U42 nor U43 patch notes and have only seen 3 plants for sale on TTC either since June this year when U42 dropped.

Did anyone got any of the following plants since U42?

Fern, Ashen
Fern, Strong Dusky
Flowers, Netch Cabbage
Flowers, Netch Cabbage Patch
Flowers, Netch Cabbage Stalks
Grass, Foxtail Cluster
Mushroom, Buttercake
Mushroom, Spongecap Patch
Mushroom, Young Milkcap
Mushroom, Polyp Stinkhorn
Mushrooms, Buttercake Cluster
Mushrooms, Buttercake Stack
Mushrooms, Lavaburst Sprouts
Mushrooms, Volcanic Cluster
Plant, Bitter Stalk
Plant, Golden Lichen
Plant, Hefty Elkhorn
Plant, Lava Leaf
Plant, Young Elkhorn
Plants, Ash Frond
Plants, Hanging Pitcher Cluster
Plants, Hanging Pitcher Pair
Plants, Lava Pitcher Cluster
Plants, Lava Pitcher Shoots
Plants, Swamp Pitcher Cluster
Plants, Swamp Pitcher Shoots
Shrub, Bitter Brush
Shrub, Bitter Cluster
Shrub, Flowering Dusk
Shrub, Golden Lichen
Vines, Ashen Moss

Thanks in advance for sharing your experience!
It would help me alot since i feel like im wasting my time out there.

Cheers Elder

i wish i could answer, but to be honest i did not even know that vvardenfell nodes dropped furnishings lol

never really farmed material nodes in that zone, just occasional harvesting when i am passing through but ive never seen a furnishing drop lol

Had to check but I did get a Buttercake Stack Mushroom from a node yesterday. Didn't know it was still this rare tbh - wishing you best of luck farming!
