Are the drop rates for artifact belt/cloaks too high? (mod 5)

Do you think the dropping rate of artifact cloak+belt is too high? I personally think so, I got an artifact belt (black ice) at my second draconic herald try and then a black ice cloak at my 4th or 5th.
Here's the proofs, I didn't took a screen of cloak but I actually equipped it so that's the proof, as for the belt:

Am I being lucky or is the drop rate too high? there is a BUNCH of cloaks/belts in ah, the black ice belt is just 1m and the lathanders one is 440K lmao...

What do you think? Feel free to vote

    I didn't equip it, I sold it for 800K in ah. I didn't said I want it nerfed, it's an opinion and I'd like to see other's opinion about it.

    I did the Dragon encounter 6 times (last night and today, so about 28 dragon kills), in all but the first of those we killed all the dragons. I have yet to get an artifact of any kind, and only 1 person in my guild has gotten an artifact despite 12 people doing (cumulatively) 60+ runs (over 250 dragons killed).

    So, no, I don't think the drop rate is too high.

    Mod 4: Droprate is too low! OMG!
    Mod 5: Droprate is too high! OMG!

    Funny man XD

    Think about why they did this.

    insolvee PLS.

    If you get a BI cloak you know who to send it to.

    This motivated me to farm this poverty module.

    Considering the fact that it takes what, several million AD in RP points just to make them better than what you already have, drop rate seems about right. I've heard people not getting it in 200 tries, and people getting it on their first.

    I say though, would be cool if they spawned one dragon every 12 minutes...endless dragon farming ftw.

    I agree though, stupid topic from someone who got their stuff and wants to screw others (regardless of what he says).

    Can't really say, you're one of a few people and the modules only been out for a few days. However in the last module the drop rate was abysmally low. It was so low that even if it came legendary it might only then make up for it.

    Also, I got no clue if this affect the drop rate, but what I usually do is: Go the whatever dragon no one is on so I get a 100% chance of Great Success. (that's how I got both artifact personally). Hope it helps people who is trying to farm it.

    I cant believe what I'm reading. We got a better drop rate and its "too high".
    Too high means you get a belt every second try. Whatever percent it is (10? 20?) is a step in the right direction, nothing more.

    People are sensitive to how bad the drop rates were last module and we can't detect your tone so it can be read in multiple ways.

    I had your experience once. Let me explain. It was the Call to Arms: Pit Fight event. First encounter: Shadow Wolf drops. Second encounter: Curio drops. Third encounter: Third best item drops (I forget what it was). 3 Encounters, 3 major event items.

    At first I thought "**** drop rates are awesome for this". I did the event another 100+ times and never saw those items again.

    I do agree, however I didn't said I'm with or agaisn't the current drop rate. I dont care at all about it, I just want to see people point of view about it.

    Just making a topic like this indicates to the powers that be that we're being rewarded far too well and the drop rate will be treated like enchants in IWD....

    Got black ice belt from the second dragon, then nothing more then 20 times even with great success. The drop rates are fine.

    I'm closing this down now as it is being misinterpreted and it is far too early in Mod 5 release to be making such assumptions. Let's give it a week or two, at least.. shall we?
