    I've been running my HR main character since last November and have yet to hit a Coalescent Ward. I started my first ever alt when the Summer Festival began so he could have the free water horse. It was undoubtedly only a coincidence but my shiny new CW pulled a shiny new CW from only his second or third Vault of Piety coffer.

    Another little stroke of luck involving my alt came the other week when I decided to watch the Strongholds Live stream on Twitch. For some reason, I could not log in using my main character's name, so I went in as my alt. Lo and behold, I was one of the lucky five people to get their names drawn out of the hat for the free 1000 Zen. Maybe I should let my alt have the Enchanted Keys I'm getting from the VIP Pass I spent the Zen on :)

    Getting the Black Ice Orb... 6 months after it became obsolete.

    Running DR lairs since Mod 2 launched: NOT ONE Eye of Lathander. First time in Tiamat with Hoard at 100%: Tiamat's Orb of Majesty drops... RNGesus has a warped, evil sense of humour.

    Black Ice Gloves. Mod 5 I wanted to finally get black ice set. I knew gloves were super hard to get, especially at that time, since nobody farmed IWD Heroics anymore. I have been farming them for 1 almost whole day - nothing. But I was ok with that since people used to farm them for months. The next day morning, before going to work, I logged into Neverwinter to set up professions and I saw a lonely GF doing Yeti Assault - I helped him out since I had a few minutes to go. Obviously, since Im typing this here, I dropped BI Gloves - the tank hasnt. Later that day I helped my friend to farm HEs, so she could get them - she didnt. I logged out in IWD. The next day I logged in to set up professions before work again. I saw the same GF doing Yeti Assault and I decided to help him again and I got a 2nd pair of BI Gloves which totally surprised me

    I ran karrundux over 100 times on my GWF and never got AoW bracers.. broke down and bought them , for what was a fortune back then to me.. 800k or something.

    DC.. I ran mad dragon dozens of times, failed every time for HP hat, bought it and bam, next mad dragon run.. what dropped as common, the HP helm and I won the roll with 100.. sold it more then I bought the original by a k or two.

    CW.. I sear, I think I got my high V set in less then a dozen runs or something crazy, like maybe FH 3-4 times, but I got everything else in the first try, I thought that was normal for awhile =P.

    Ive probably ran esot and lol like 3000 times with 6 toons and IVE NEVER won a haarls.. always had to buy them. Got the stupid breyers, but never haarls.

    I hate that book.

    Eye , I really want one on my paladin, but I know it wont drop.. my gwf has gotten like 3 in dread ring.. and I have no use for it other then for RP value

    I still think the EYE should be buy-able or drop in VT as well.. as unbound.

    O... for my dc, I literally spent like 3 weeks straight on my DC doing every major HE, with like a 99% great success rate and never got the bracers, finally got it, but I hated IWD for awhile after that.. my cw got it on the first weekened or something, when dps was getting them left and right.

    Overall they way too harshly gated bracers, I think we can agree with that.

    LOL, i got haarls book from the 1st ESoT run on my CW xD

    Pay in Cash ( no AD in $$$ ) a ​​considerable amount for the VIP and feel the rolls of lockboxes were drastically reduced ! once again feeling cheated ! rofl should have learned . That's hilarious is not it?
