Anybody on consoles seeing Blacksmith Master Writs drop?

I know there's a strong RNG factor throughout everything ESO, but this seems a bit off. So I'd like to confirm whether anybody else on consoles is seeing Blacksmith Master Writs dropping for them. I haven't seen any since U47 dropped with any of my crafters. Here's a screenshot of my looted surveys and master writs since U47 landed. I just found it odd that not one blacksmith writ dropped in the bunch.
I also noted the lack of Clothier/Woodworking surveys, but I attribute that to the bug that hit PC being carried over to consoles despite a patch already available for it.

✭✭✭✭✭I don't know but I know some of the surveys are currently bugged. No idea if this is related.

Yeah. I expected the Clothier/Woodworking survey/writ bug. I just hadn't heard about it happening with Blacksmith when PC got U47. It's like the opposite version where it's dropping surveys but not writs. However after only 3 days I figured my sample size wasn't large enough to be conclusive. So thought I'd ask if anybody else was seeing blacksmith master writs drop on consoles.

✭✭✭✭I did mine today but I don’t remember. I will try to take note tomorrow and see.
I didn’t get many writs though, much fewer than normal.

✭✭✭✭Today I got:
2 alchemy surveys
1 blacksmithing
1 enchanting
2 jewelry
1 alchemy MW
1 enchanting
1 provisioning
2 woodworking
I have 9 full crafters doing all daily crafting writs.
Before the update I would typically get about 10 surveys per day and I have gotten less than that every day this week. I wonder if the drop rate has been reduced since they are supposedly sellable now. That would be unfortunate for players like me who do their surveys every day instead of banking them.

LootAllTheStuff✭✭✭✭I only have one character (XB-NA) doing daily writs who qualifies for master writs, but I've had very little drop since the update at all. So far, it's all been enchanting writs or surveys - nothing else

Until the incremental patch on the 16th(?) clothier and woodwooking master writs drop in place of surveys. Same thing happened on PC when U47 arrived.0 -
allochthons✭✭✭✭✭Unknown blacksmithing, clothier, enchanting, and woodworking on this character this morning. PS/NA.
Those blacksmithing writs may have been in my inventory before today. I've done writs on 10 full crafters since, and haven't gotten one blacksmith writ.Edited by allochthons on September 6, 2025 8:29PMShe/They

Yeah I know, but I wonder if they did adjust the overall drop rate thinking if they did not the surveys would flood the market.
