Looks like they nerfed artifact-belt drop hard

If you search artifact belts under collections it doesn't say anymore that they can drop from the open world dragons. Therefore it can drop from new loxbox now. Imo best belts ingame shouldnt come from lockboxes but maybe it gets changed who knows.

    If it's true, real P2W.

    I really hope that's not true. That would be massively crossing the line on what's acceptable.

    I think I'd quit the game because the cash shop is already ****in everything and the economy.

    So pay to have an artifact belt, no.

    Wow... if this is true than the game is really moving far away from the original spirit for me. It is already on borderline that some of the best artifacts are dropping in lockboxes only.
    Suggestions to improve NW:
    - Dualspec
    - Better rewarding foundry and foundry pvp maps
    - Custom PvP leagues with leaderboards instead of the current 'matchmaking'.
    - Armory
    - make jumping cost stamina (to reduce hopping in pvp)

    That's ok then. However do you know if it's,
    T2 set type rarity or artifact drop type rarity ?

    I have no clue but I assume it will drop like green artifacts on live server so maybe 1 out of 100+ runs but there are 6 different ones so I think it will be almost impossible to drop the one you need unless your extremly lucky.

    They don't only drop from lockboxes ? they also drop from the new Epic Dungeon/Skirmish unless that has been changed.

    Getting a +4 CHA for a GWF just sucks. How lucky we are, we'll drop this.

    This game has turned into "Be lucky or Pay"

    They still show as dropping from the dragons when you're in "By Location" of the TOD collections page.

    There have been so many problems lately we're reaching a critical mass on rage. If someone wanted to buyout all the pitchforks and torches and resell them at a mark up they could make a killing right now.

    Oh I'm sure it'll happen similar to how they changed mod 3 HE drop rates. They'll let it go for a week or two, realize too many people are getting artifact gear and nerf the HAMSTER outta the drop rate... Of course, little will they realize that the main reason so many people will have them is because of lockbox drops...
