I also run multiple chest rounds per day, and I’ve been testing it since they added the pvp luck.
One round flagged, one unflagged sort of pattern. So far I’ve dropped 2 trophy parts flagged and about 11 unflagged.
Of course the sample size isn’t anywhere big enough to draw any final conclusions, but I’ve been hearing reports left and right about similar experience with the flagged luck. There’s something fishy about it, I think.
I have noticed a large decrease in my trophy luck since adding pearls to my voidbent & weapon.
Also worth noting, i believe there is a secret ‘Diminishing returns’ effect we have not been informed of. I run chests for hours on end & find that when i first start my luck is much higher, after some time instead of seeing 3/4/5 drops from a single chest, i can end up finding only 1 drop & it’s a green weapon / Armor piece… then it picks back up again after some more time.
solo. And i have to say… im a 100% sure they stealth nerfed trophy parts again with the last server maintance. Last 2 days not a single piece. I run atleast 8 hours a day and didnt get anything. Befor the maintance i got 2-5 parts a fuckin day with less than 8 hours. These dev stealth changing more than anything else. They really try to even kill the ltitle endgame there is. I started standing around for 5 hours a day in city. Because the endgame loop got complete garbage and was before already lol. Chest runs dead, elite runs boring as hell also garbage, dungeons locked behind an incompetence problem of the devs.
I have the same issue when looting chest in Reekwater with my company all PVP flagged and full luck gear and I went off to do SM and still don’t see as much rare stuff. I have given it a few days as I think it may just be a matter of time but definitely want to know if it’s a bug or maybe they just overshot the nerf to loot drops or changes to drops.
Tbh i think the amulet is bugged, bc I noticed on on one of my runs when I took it off I got more purple drops, but still no trophies, like they definite;y made some update bc right after the patch hit there were so many of them on market, then suddenly nothing.
I’ve just started doing the run in weaver’s fen and reekwater a few days back. Just once a night really. Out of the 3 times I ran weaver’s I got 2 surveyor’s tools (1 on each of my first two runs). The reekwater run I do I’ve not gotten anything from. I’m not hitting elite chests, but am hitting the T3 large chests.
I only have luck on all my armour pieces (2.7-2.8) and bags, plus the bonus from flagging PvP. I heard stuff about luck jewellery breaking luck or something so have stayed away from that.
My guess is: Trophy components were nerfed since pvp flag update. But not only that… it is a lucksafe drop. In other words, luck atribute doesn’t seems to increase its drop rate.
6 trophy runs, stock piles in shattered mt. And RW. 2 weapon schematics nothing else worth mentioning. Voidbent armor only one peice with a pearl. 2 pearls for my earing and ring. 2 luck bags. 2 basic luck trophies. Pvp flagged.
im running 55.1% loot luck (10% from pvp) which is basically capped!!! and ive been getting jack for days now. mean while my friends who have around 30-35% loot luck have been getting 3-4 legendary trophy mats a day. this is getting highly annoying and making not want to play this game anymore. i spend all this time grinding to buy all the luck stuff and it doesnt even perform as intended when i do get a gold item its a damn schematic that sells for 10g on my server.
the way loot drops work in this game is just bad. ive got like 1200 hours and have gotten 2 basic trophy components the entire time ive been playing. I dont want them to not be rare but i mean damn near impossible to get is not cool.
