Blue marks drop rate

Did it change? Did anyone find a new source for them? Suddenly the AH is filling with blue marks, prices have been already halved (2 days ago blue Marks of Union were selling at 60k each, now they dropped to 25k)!

    Bonus Zen + Enchanted Keys sale is the cause of that, I'd imagine.

    Hmm... didn't think of that, they dropped a lot in older lockboxes. Thanks :D

    Good that prices are dropping. I was just thinking the other day we need a reliable source fo blue marks.

    I don't know if it is unusual for anyone else, but for the first time ever, I got a blue mark of potency from a blue 'chest of goods' (from leadership profession,) this weekend. It seemed rare enough that I took a screenshot. hahaha

    Me too. Quite a nice surprise! Whatever the reason is, I'll take it. One can never have too many Marks of Potency.

    Check the name of the sellers, bots. Perhaps, they sold a good number of their RP stones so they started to sell something else in order to keep their income while saving some RP for the next event.

    I have been opening a lot of lockboxes, and I received over 100 blue marks of potency from the amount opened. I also received a few union, power and stability marks as well. I think it's just a huge surge in the amount of boxes everyone's been buying in the wake of the enchanted key sale.

    You have a small chance of getting a purple chest reward when opening a blue chest.

    Yeah, normally I hate that.. most of the time I get a few major heal pots from those. I was more surprised to get the mark from a leadership box at all, regardless of type.

    I am still bemused by the fact it is far easier to get purple marks than blue ones.
    Definitely not an Arc User.

    Hmm... then maybe bots are shifting from foundry farming to ToD node farming... :/

    I got a blue mark of union out of one of the dread ring lairs too. So that leads to the conclusion that any tradeskill node can drop them, just not often.

    I have received the blue marks of potency from Leadership boxes a few times. Will usually get one from opening a stack of 500 boxes.
