Drop rates!! Ultimate enchantments stones

horup79 · February 2018

Hi all,

I would love to hear how often you guys get at ultimate enchantment stone from Tome of the nine gods.
Personally i get a stone about every 40-60 runs...

According to my calculations you need 87 stones to get all max enchantments. Per character..
That means, with my luck, I need to complete the dungeon at least 3650 times. Again, per character...
Which corresponds to:

10 years, if running 1 per day with your crafted key..
76 days, of raw game time trying to complete the dungeon, based on 30 min pr. run. No pauses....
182.500 Zen, if you would buy the keys to get to ur goal faster...

So tell me dear fellow gamers.. Are your luck better or worse than mine????

1/40

Completed 93 tongs since 12.5 not had one drop.

Been playing daily since it launched on Xbox and have had 2 drop

You miss the no fixed chest scam

how many runs per drop ??

ecrana · February 2018

I've received 0 stone in 0 runs. I won't take part in that RNG nonsense to regain stats that were taken from me. I can handle the content just fine without it and it's completely unnecessary.

To add insult to injury for the poor people that bust their humps farming the stones...I received 2 stones opening up about 30-40 lost artifact packs. In 2 minutes. Why farm T9G when I have better luck opening boxes.

I got 1/50 of the lost artifact box.. not great either

Approx 40 in 400

I did one run, received 1 stone, so I expect I will be done in no time at all

But then I ran a few more, and a few more...no stones. I have seen others post with luck as high as 10% and some around an 5% estimated drop rate.

I have about 20 runs in with just that one stone so far, hard to say with my low number runs, but your drop rate seems closer to 1% assuming you are opening both chests. Even if the drop rate was 5%, that is ~1740 runs per character or about 870 hours in tong (assuming good groups at 30 minutes per run)....per character....lol...and then you need to find wards to go along with that.

I would be willing to put some $ in for the wards if the rate of obtaining the stone was better, maybe the new mod will help. Right now it is simply de-motivating and makes the game a tedious chore rather than something fun.

I don't know why people waste their time on this. Do they seriously think the devs would allow BIS to be grind-able before the next mod or two? BIS will have to be paid for until then.

Get AD and buy them, depending on your methods buying them would be much faster than running the dungeon over and over for them.

Absolutely. After 0 stone drops following 100s of runs I said screw it and bought what I needed for my bindings. That’s more than enough for now.

And which methods would those be?

Have already been through this with you, pick your poison, many AD options to choose from.

I have come to a different conclusion. There is no content that I currently need to be BiS for thus there is no reason to be BiS. I can already clear all content without one single ultimate stone so they are not needed and thus no grind or AD need be spent, in fact right now there is really not much reason to log in. No drops = no motivation...time to go outside and play with a stick.

Eventually UES will be in the Zen Market.

Thats why the drop rates are so low. Even in the new MOD 13 the drop rates are still low. Galactic Underwear has run T9 about 100x and only one drop. Even though the devs say slightly increase. That was a lie, they want us to grind for stones because the game is dying, players are leaving because of lack of content. Low drop rates on what you need to upgrade your gear provides replayability to the game.

Bro, that's what they wanted for us to do. Buy back our lost stats

You did, multiple times because the responses were not exactly how you wanted them to be.
