How incredably nerfed is the Tymora's Gift event?

theungodly · March 2016

I remember the first Tymora's Gift event and the gifts where dropping quite frequently. Like once every 2nd or 3rd minute. It was kinda fun to chase those gifts. Now it seems like they drop once every 15 minutes or so and the gifts seems worse too, which means, i dont really care to go after them anymore. Exaggeration or not - it's definitely very nerfed.

Anybody else noticing the difference?
Does anybody know how nerfed it is?

Still seems to be dropping every minute and a half for me.

I counted around 1 minute roughly between drops when I was farming last night. Got over 125 in 3 1/2 hours....And I did three Edemos in there too.

Interesting. I got three during one hour. I didn't farm really, but i killed 200-300 foes during that time.

Could depend on where you farm. If more than 7 levels over, no gifts.

Best places to farm are the areas around the Dragon encounters on the various maps, it reduces your level down to the mobs level and they die fast.

Yesterday i farmed "seriously" for two hours in Drowned Shore and got 34 gifts, so ...an improvement

. Anyhow, i still stand by that the content of the gifts are nerfed. Less AD and less eggs. I noticed this the last time too when i collected hundreds of gifts.

Also, the first time around the content was pretty rare and worth hunting. Now everything, like profession resources, are worth nothing to no one really. Not even to the newcomers. Yeah, i relly love getting tons of rank 1-3 ench, potions and Residuum. Not to mention the Winter Event that took the air out of every event by overflooding the auction house with companions. Why should anyone care about events anymore.

So to make the events interesting again, maybe they should reevaluate and change the rewards? Or scrap them all and make new once. To nerf and make stuff redundant is the opposite to what they should do.

I have 280 Favours of tymora how many damned fancy horses do they think I want lol would help if the vendor had other stuff to buy rather than just the horse

bah ... Tymora is a minor event, its li "hey guys here is a free gift" but thats it, its a "its free so bip it up" kinda thing. Personally i don't care what i get... beside diamond. If i get diamonds its cool, rank 3 enchants bah... every tiny bit help but it won't make a big difference yet its free... so why not. Other stuff i don't care, i got one fancy horse back then when all i had was a regular horse, lets say that the look of it do not fit my dark knigh style of character and its still just a 50% wich i have no interest for.

To be fair I opened about the same amount as any other previous Tymoras event and didn't get a single coin when before I averaged 10+. Definitely odd. My RNG lately has absolutely plummeted almost into the negatives.

Will they do this again I have a bunch of coins and nothing to do with them

I perceived a decrease in drop rate. I gott two coins in about 125 gifts. But I'm not really complaining. "Oh noos! I'm not getting as much free stuff! My entitlement!"

kittysparkles01 · March 2016

I don't find the drop rate changed at all, if RNG is truly random, then it could plausibly never drop the coin for you. It's just the law of averages, sometimes you do better than others.

Besides coins are pretty affordable, and the stat boost is not as significant as in older mods. I only keep mine equipped as just that, a lucky coin to flip.
