Trying to get EA and UE from New area quests.

For the last three days I have been running all 4 of the new area's to find the quests that give me EA and UE. However for the last 2 days there has only been one quest that gives me anything and that's the Daily at the Rock ( which I haven't been able to find a group to do this with yet). I was wondering if anyone else has run into this problem while trying to farm the EA and UE.
stealth is survival skills (and not tanking skills, that is really different)
stealth is damage
stealth is mobility
stealth is everything
everything is stealth
Stealth make TR OP, but lack of stealth make TR useless.

You can get both through the Alchemy profession, though it takes some days without colored alchemists. (7 for EA and 12 for UE)
Also you get them from HEs. The drop rate seems to be not really good but not as bad as BI Hands in IWD pre-Mod. I did not have the luck yet, but then I did not participate in many Greater HEs.
Also you can get the EA from some quests, but I'm not sure which ones, so it is entirely possible that it is only the one quest you already know.
And then there is the AH, where you can buy them.
The first few days I got an Elemental Aggregate and/or Unified Element from almost every task force area, but the last couple of days I've run back to all zones and not seen one listed as a reward for vigilance tasks, checking multiple times.
It was never clear on why any given task would give EA or UE as a reward, and now I don't know if there's a way to force them to appear -- or, as Cryptic has done before, the first days' rewards were higher, and they've now been nerfed down. (see black ice gloves drop rate, etc.).
However if I have to make the Elemental Aggregate and/or Unified Element through professions then I can find another game to play and only come back every 7 to 12 days to change my professions. The sad thing with this is that it will take months to do it that way.
I don't see how this would be good for Neverwinter if everyone does this who refuse to buy through AH.

I had one drop other day when I did Vigilant Quests in Drowned Shores, just check rewards when you go for those quests.
While I was levelling I could find an occasional Unified of Aggregate as quest reward, now it seems to have dried up.
Do they only drop for characters below 70?
They came as vigilance quest rewards after I hit level 70 but that was 2 days ago. No such rewards in the last 2 days. That's consistent with what people posted here and in game. The chance of getting them as quest rewards is likely severely reduced or even eliminated quietly.
Same here, both my toons I have ran trhough got aggregrate and unified elemets at least one per area, but now that i'm 70 on both and running around checking those vigilant quests i get nothing, just green mats I get plenty of from mob drops. Its like once you turn 70 they stop dropping those items.

It is kinda silly they gate end game gears behind UE and EA but yet do not provide an efficient way to farm/grind them.
Aside from a couple whales we have sufficient epic/rare assets to churn out these resources faster, the majority of the player base will be struggling with unplayable dungeons, unfarmable resources, unattainable gears...
