Yeah there is something definitely wrong with the Topaz gypsum drops. Spent a full hour killing level 57+ with 3 named in rotation. Did this while pvp flagged hoping that luck would help drops.

Nope. Took a full 10 minutes to get 1 drop and was stuck at 9/10 after the full hour of nonstop mob killing.

Our company has had this happen a couple times. There are a few players that they get 10 of 10, but a couple of us have had 9 of 10. I personally have had this happen 100% of the time I have tried. It’s happened at least the last three times we have gone out as a small group. One night, two received 10 of 10 and three of use only received 9 of 10. At first, we believe I did not get a bad drop, but the 2nd night, when it happened to others and myself again. I knew it was an issue. The very next day, I only received 9 again. Now, it’s more a joke as once I get my 9, we are done farming,

With our group, we can normally get our 9 around 25-35m into the potion. Then the last 35-25m ( whatever is left ) we sit there, trying to farm my last drop that never happens.

Yeah, I farm in an area where I can kill stuff pretty nonstop included some named/elite mobs. Usually without hiccups I can get to 10 in 30 minutes or less. But then sometimes it just seems to get stuck and I can’t get the 10th to drop.

The only good thing is that I’ve noticed is that after you start a day with 9 topaz, you can pop a new potion (not the same day) and get the next 10. So I’ve had 19 topaz and will just let the 9 roll into the next time it fails to get me 10. I just need to track what I’m at before I pop the potion for the day to make sure I keep killing til I get up to the 10 daily.

i can confirm this is a bug, ive had 9/10 topaz for the past 4 days. i dont believe i missed a bag all 4 days. for one of the days i just kept killing ivan to get obsidian as well as topaz. its not likely bags are lost in that building as there is a lot of open space. i believe there is an internal bug where some people are only able to get 9/10 topaz max a day. this is frustrating and i hope devs can acknowledge that something is wrong and that theyre working on it.

I can confirm this has happened a lot. There are days we get 10, rarely, but most of the time we get 9. There is a small group of us that do this all the time and it’s random on who gets 10 and 9. We joke about it all the time. A couple of us are up to 15 or more trips with 9. As we know, on the amount of Topaz we have left after turning in.

Yeah same for me.
Half of the time, I only get 8 or 9 out of 10.

This happened to me today. Most players will say you just missed a bag but I can assure you I did not miss a bag. Unless that bag spawned under the world :slight_smile:

Happening a lot in the company I am in. Get to 9 with 25 minutes left on potion and nothing after that. Even tried another potion and not one in the full hour. Happening roughly 1 out of 3 runs we do to what seems like random group members. Started double checking each kill for bags so pretty sure it is not a missed bag and if that really was the issue why always at 9, no one ever got stuck at 8…

I don’t get why it doesn’t work the same as some of the missions once you have the correct amount it stops dropping where as once 10 have dropped of topaz they stop, its as if they are trying to stop people from getting the 10

Bump… same here. 9/10

YEP. How could that not be an Hotfix? It’s incredible. You always talk about ruining game experience and stuff and then you ruin the experience and time of everyone that is investing 1 hour into NOTHING. You can’t even catch up that stuff with this incredible BAD topaz design. 9/10 is just useless after the flask is gone.

Damn this seems, weird, for sure. i play every two day since the gypsum update and there is not even one day that i dont get my 10 topaz. its even easier in this patch.

it might have something to do with grouping i suppose because im doing it solo either killing boars at bottom of genesis or Shattered mountain mine run. do it solo and see if it works.

It’s just the worst design i’ve ever seen. Bags that people could miss, timegated behind a flask craft, timegated behind an ICD for the drops and drop-gated behind a 10 each day cap. And then telling us in a damage control DEV video: “We know you are frustrated”. YES the players are frustrated being timegated on every god damn mechanic in this game. And what are you doing? Throwing more BS on us @devs

It didn’t happen to me today, but yesterday and the day before for sure.
