Month long farming

From the moment I unlocked the skirmishes from ToD campaign, it's been a month since I started to farm for artifact items..
But during that long time of farming I've only had a glimpse of 1 losmauth artifact (eLoL) and 1 artifact belt (eSoT) and no more. I didn't even get any of them just a chance to need on them.. ROFL

Are there any or had worst luck than I have? It's just that drop rate is way too low, maybe like 0.000000000000000luck%? :D

    Farm for AD then buy the item you like on the AH ;)

    If the RNG drives you nuts, why play with it? I don't. I Don't even have the dungeons unlocked and have 3 belts through farming AD.

    It would be nice to have reasonable drop rates, but I am not sure how we appeal to get those, we have been trying a long time.

    Lol and here I thought I was crazy for not running them, and in all honesty I don't think I will ever run those 2 contents.

    I mean think about it, I ran dailies for 18-20 days to unlock the dungeon, and skirmish, then you have to do 100s of runs to get a belt, say I got lucky and get the belt, how in the hell am I going to get the most out of it?

    Personally to me it not worth it, I play casually for fun, and if that fun wants to transform to a job I will kindly say no.

    I farmed for the BI main hand on three toons. Didn't get it on any of them. Never again will I farm for anything with ultra-low drop rate. Not worth the time or sanity. Better to use the SoT/LoL to complete the skirmish/dungeon dailies to max out your daily AD. You will have enough AD to buy the items from the AH way sooner then you will get them by farming.

    If you catch the Skirmish hour, you can net some decent AD, especially if you get the Lord Protector's Daily combined with the Rhix Daily. In a month's time, theoretically, you should be somewhat closer to buying a belt if you have Leadership Profession going as well. It's funny, I haven't bothered trying to get the belt either, maybe I should take my own advice...

    The dailies give rough AD and has a cap of 25k per day. Over a month, the most you can get is 750k AD, barely enough to buy the the most useless Sash of Charisma but the other belts like the INT one costs more than 4 times that much.

    You also fail to take into account the cost associated with levelling each leadership up to 20
