Items and Economy
•Tyranny of Dragons Campaign: We have increased the drop rates for Haarl's Treatise on Dragonkind (Boon 4) and Breyer's Draconic Investigations (Boon 5).
•Tyranny of Dragons rewards: Increased the drop rates of artifact belts in the Epic versions of The Shores of Tuern skirmish and the Lair of Lostmauth dungeon.

That good news, maybe now i might consider hunting for them.

    Let's just hope it's a noticeable drop rate increase, and not from 0.001% chance to drop to 0.002% chance.

    I do not think it is quite that low. I know several people whove got belts from eLoL, including me. Most got them in under 100 runs which would make the chance about 1% imo.

    I told my best friend they were increasing drop rates. He said, "when is module 5?" I said, "not sure." He says, "Hmm... that means we should just quit until module 5."


    Hard to argue with that logic.

    Why? The belts and books DO drop. I've gotten both myself, and it probably took maybe 50 runs. It's just they do not drop often, and the game does not remember how many times you've done it.

    New belts that are apart of 3 piece sets coming with the next module. Cloak, belt, and artifact(Lathander, Seldarine, Black Ice Beholder, and Restraint).

    They add dual ability score stats (+1 to one stat at rank 1, +2 and +3 to two stats at legendary).

    They're also adding a 6th and 7th boon to ToD that both unlock with the same book.

    These new artifact sets are rather strange... The stats they offer seem like they are spread across every type of stat rather than grouping effective combinations of stats.

    Pretty much. I don't think any PVE content at the moment is rewarding enough to be worth hardcore player's time.

    Nice - who knows I might just get boon 4+ for ToD eventually now....


    However, for the current artifact belts they are no longer going to be BiS I think with the new drops. So for the vast majority of players I REALLY doubt it is worth spending X million AD to refine anything but the new belts.

    Well, in our guild we have collectively more than 200 runs and have never seen anything....

    Such books cost over 1 million AD on AH,
    and it is near impossible to drop your own.

    I hope M5 will give us more chances.

    This game is more like a work now, small wonder I cannot see my friends and guildies online.
    my guild once have 3-6 pages online
    now we barely have 1 page!
    I've run e.LoL/e.SoT 4-6x a day that was after I got to unlock it! until now no belts or books at all.
    I'd just got my art wep to legendary,and bind my con belt. Next mod they'll introduce a new legendary set for belt and weapon that is so! :(.
    PvP is no fun at all unless you got bis gears to be competitive, casual ones are good but rare like their RNG.
    PvE content is not even challenging anymore.

    Am I the only feeling this?
    I think I'll be needing a break, and be back when monk is released.
