same thing , i don't get any good ecxept base loot , and now it's the dungeon chest for me ,
i did the epic version like 5 times so far this day and i didn't get any glyphs, wich i thought are the base loot for the epic Lol !
Yeah, over 100+ runs with the same exact loot is not random at all. Chest is bugged for some people. I tried on both difficulties and always get base loot after getting several epics the first day I had it unlocked. Nothing since. It would be nice if devs stepped in and atleast acknowledged that they knew this bug existed.

I get more stuff when I don't farm. I just do it casually.

Except the only thing that made me keep track is the fact I was doing it for fun with some guildies doing multiple runs. After an entire skirmish hour and a little longer everyone was talking about how many of what things they got. Thats when I realized that I did not get anything and have not since even though I continue to run with people for fun.
Just verified on all my characters the two chest always drop 66 in coin, one enchantment, one scroll. Every time for quite awhile, although originally it was not this case.
In the first 5 runs I had different loot and even one Dragon Gem. After that each run had the same loot, over and over again.

y chest drop is rare but why normal chest drop 80% and chest with key drop 20% ?
me get much more items in normal chest gem , epic items why to sped resurse on campain to make key if is useless
Dragons? On MY Way !!

Another 20 runs and every one of them in both chests where the same junk enchantment/scroll. I have not hit my 100 runs yet, but I am logging everything to get some insight.
It does not say anything about the skirmish, but it is possible there is something funky going on with that chest too. At the end of the day I am glad there is the AH because if this "random" loot was the only chance you had... yea
For the TLDR crowd just grind for AD somewhere else and buy what you want instead of wasting your time on these places.

I have been running the skirmish for the past week, roughly 4 hours each day on first epic and then normal, and I have received the same rubbish enchantment, scroll, money combo every time bar about on 10 occasions, where I got either the T1 bow, Infernal Hood or lesser glyph. Not. one. Bloody. Dragon. Gem. Or. Artifact/Belt. Then a friend of mine steps into the skirmish for the first time and gets the gem... the RNG in this game sucks donkey balls!

Yep, the RNG is nasty. I play the normal skirmish I'd say an average of 2-4 times a day. Most runs I get the standard junk. Some runs have the Infernal Hood, lesser glyph, or weapon. I have not seen a belt drop but I have gotten 3 dragon gems and one of the boon books. Some guild members have had even more dragon gems and some haven't seen any.

I should unlock the skirmish with my ranger today or tomorrow. I'm very interested to see what sort of loot I pull on a different character under my same account. I will bet money that this 2nd character will get better results, but we will have to wait and see. I'll post my findings, so do not form an angry mob just yet folks.
I keep running maybe 5 sot's each day.
1 week after my last post I have not had any variance in loot at all.
Always the same rank4 plus scroll plus silver.
Always exactly the same.
I do get rad during the event though.
Same problem here, the first few times i ran this, i got a few different purple(<font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> items but still..), and now today i just ran 20-25 runs and got the excact same loot in both chests.. 66 silver, a R5 and a greater identify scroll.

The odds are probably down in the 1 in 200 (.5%) or even 1 in 500 (.2%) range. So having "bad luck" for even hundreds of runs is probably expected and working-as-intended. If you hit the exact same loot in 2,000 runs -- then I'd start getting suspicious.
Im curious if anyone else is having a similar experience.
For the last 4 days or so Ive done around 30 runs of eSoT and about 30 runs of normal SoT and I ahve gotten nothing except the scrolls/enchant/money from both chests. I was getting at least some sort of item every few runs before but now I cant seem to get anything. Am I just having some of the worst RNG ever or are other people having this same issue?
I am getting something even worse.
Imagine you wasted your campaign resources or ZEN on those special keys....you go inside and you see a Dragon Gem/Artifact drop inside the option chest....
"Horaaay"...you loot it, waste the key...and realize that you have another item and that you have been tricked/fooled/prancked/etc...
This bug is getting old, and has not been fixed yet.....
Ya I know about the bug, but im more curious if other people are not even seeing any loot come up at all. Just getting nothing but the enchant and a scroll. Im wondering if the RNG is that horrible or if my character is bugged.
At my second time running the skirmish, the boss dropped a Belt of Wisdom. However, another party member said she had ran the skirmish like 500 times and that was her first time saw an artifact belt dropped from the boss.
Btw, the regular chest can give draconic equipments (BTC).
For some reason I got good loot, when I joined a existing party for the bossfight. Either dumb luck or a bug, bc. in one of my runs, after 5 tries we got a DC for a member who left and he posted a dragon gem after the fight. Good reward for a 5 min bossfight. Same happened to me after 100+ runs with crappy loot.

I have such bad rolls I did 100 runs of Tower of Celadaine and got nothing of value, my wife runs it once with me and gets the blink dog.
I have run 140 ESoT and have gotten the base look each time, and have not seen a single epic drop from the boss.
I just finished another 140 runs of Sot and have basically the same drop each time. I have during this time opened the second chest 14 in each of the 2 Skirmishes and I did not get anything different from the primary chest.
I think there is an issue here is so many players are having the same issue.
1 week of 5 hour session of normal / Epic Shores, avg. 10-20 per day now and still have yet to receive anything besides the usual Rank 4/5 enchant, scroll of identifications, and 66 coin.. I have mass collected over 100 rank 4's and 50 Rank 5 enchant stones.. nothing else of value.. I'm getting to point of giving up on trying to get my 4th boon item..

You have this 66 silver rank 5 and 1 ID scroll.
I call it the 666 curse. 66(5+1)=6

So how is that "exactly the same", out of interest?
Exactly the same loot over and over.
Pretty simular if you ask me.
i did the epic version like 5 times so far this day and i didn't get any glyphs, wich i thought are the base loot for the epic Lol !

Me too...if I ever run 2000+ skirmishes for r4-5 enchants and id scrolls,I would start suspecting I`m in dire need of professional help.

Just wondering, with the bug, if we take the stuff from the optional chest if that scroll might just turn into something better.
