The system is rigged for these final set pieces to be so extremely rare it's absurd.
I am NOT talking about the first one you get. The system makes it easy and fast to get the bracers first or the weapon first. But it's after getting the first one that the last one won't drop.
Your characters will have all black ice gear pieces except the last one from either beholder or remo, and it won't drop.
I have six characters. All six have every black ice piece except the last one.
all my characters have the same story to tell. they all got the first remo or beholder piece right away, it dropped fast and easy. but none can get the last one. as example, my TR just needs the mainhand weapon from beholder. TR has done about 100 beholders and nothing.
same story for all other characters.
the game is rigged, coded for this to happen, and then what do i see in the store? for $15 you can now BUY that last piece...
what a ripoff to rig the game and make players go through all this not knowing it's been rigged against them.

Have to pay IRL money as always but at least you get what you want
Not if you save up ADs, reading news and saving; will always lead to a good result.

If player can't make visible progress to a very hard to get item they want, the player become very hard to get the the devs and gaming company.The drop rates of Covalent Wards is higher than the effective drop rate of the BI Gaunlets and Main Weapon.
If the RNG is against you eventually, you will give up. And that's no good for anyone.
Yes. You've been very lucky. Other have done hundreds of HE in IWD and gotten nothing, myself included.
Two other alts - the big zero.
My GF alt - got the main hand on his first trip to DV- "Oh, BIB is up! Might as well stop in while I'm doing the intro quest!". A dozen HE's later got the gauntlets in IWP. *grumble*
Well, in that case, I just go to every HE as soon as I receive the notification in the minimap and I try to finish them asap before more people arrive, max 2-3 in a 3-5 HE, if there's too much people the % to get good items will go down, I've found much more rewarding to farm fresh 3-5 HE than waiting for Remorhaz/Beholder, also don't die (don't let the SF proc) because it looks like everything you have done in the HE is reset , I hope this helps, worked good for my GWF, SW and some friends. GL.
You are lucky for me its been five months now and I cant get any of those two I literally gave up and just do the draconic sets.
my guild mate got his BI when remo is a about to die about 10 percent life left he hits remo less than 20 hits but still got the black ice. Me Im not that lucky.
I happened to me once. On HR char that I don't play and don't really plan to. But Got there to Remo fight in pvp gear. Hit him once or twice. Got bracers. Forgot about them since they are salvaged into BI rather then AD.
After month or so I tied to grind it on main HR. 2 Month useless - More then 1000 Majors and huge amount of Epics. Had to buy from pack since can not transfer.
