  • Describe the issue you are experiencing:
    Before Patch 1.04 when I used my full mining luck gear and went to farm Orichalcum I used to gain about 1 proc of legendary ressource for 200-400 Orichalcum more o less.
    This numbers used to be coherant with the rate I get legendary ressources from logging, skinning or gathering.

Since last patch however I tend to gain 1 proc of legendary ressources for 4 to 4K Orichalcum with even more luck then I used to have.

When I am talking with people that just start mining and have less gear they tend to gain the same ammount of legendary ressources then I used to.

But when talking with seasonned farmer fully equipped like me, everyone is experiencing a similar issue.

I am pretty confident this is not just bad luck as I did farm A LOT and because other farmers like me are experiencing exactly the same.

I can vouch for this my end near max mining luck+food+200 mining I’m over 10,000 ore farmed of Orichalcum not a single legendary mat and barely any gems.

I forgot to mention over 4,000 starmetal ore and I also rarely seen the chunks only twice so far.

I have to agree across the board. I’m over 30k ore in and not only are Tol and Cin drops increasingly rare but I have yet to find Void Ore. I am running 4.7 or greater on all gear, 550 pic and 550 mining neck, with 2k food.

Beyond rediculous.

i have had this same issue for days, then i took off my amulet and i started to get drops again.

i think its a bug thats triggered under certain circumstances for certain people, for me it started when i bought a new house but i cant add any trophies to it yet(cause they are disabled), maybe something to do with that

I’m experiencing the same issue, i alternate wearing amulet and not wearing every 1k and notice it drops significantly higher and more conistent not wearing. Even when i don’t wear any mining gears with pvp on I still get more drops than full gears with amulet. My suggestion is that the perk from the amulet actually overrides others since it has different name “Adored Mining Luck” cuz with -9% luck I should still get more drops than not wearing any mining luck (-25%).
