VERY few Bajoran Gratitude Beads Drops

edited December 2013 in PC Gameplay Bug Reports
Don't know if anyone else has experienced this but I'm playing on my KDF and since the Winter Event started I have only been able to get 8 Bajoran Gratitude Beads tops, got hundreds of the common ones, a so so number of Andorian Sleigh Bells (but still rare drops) from Snow ball fights and doff mishs.

I did all the events and doff mishs over and over and gotten one or two (IF I get lucky) if this was the intent, at this rate i will never get all the Winter Stuff for one alt let alone 16+ and not to mention the contributions to the fleet I'm in for the Winter Fleet Project.

The Pie eating contest gives almost nothing just 2 or 4+ commons, the recipe gives out 4+ but no bells or beads what gives?? :confused: If this was NOT the intent please please look into it while the winter event is still relatively new.

Thank You for your time :)

    Same here. I dont know why they are so rare, but i cant buy anything only because i just need bajoran gratitud beads. I only have 4 or 5 in the inventory, and 50 or 60 of the rest of the ingredients. I have all of em, except those stupid bajoran beads. There is no way to get them. Really sad, but well, we need to be used to it, this winter invasion event is bugged to the top. I am only playing the fast game on ice to gather the q photos. Thats all, same as a lot of people i guess.

    The Bajoran gratitude beads and Andorian sleigh bells had similarly low drop rates last year, so I'm not sure it's a bug.

    Last year i had as much bells and beads as i did the common stuff, it sure as heck was a LOT more than the 8+ I've gotten so far since the event started. :confused:

    The drop rate seems unchanged since last year. It's sadly intended.

    Yeah I find it harder to get uncommon drops in the winter event, compared to last winter event. Sure I understand you don't want players sitting on a snow pile all day, but to also reduced how to get the uncommon items, certainly wants to asks the question, why?

    It makes for a tough ask especially if you starting out this year with a new character and not much in the way of Lobi. Getting clothes, pets, weapons and having to put the same amount of uncommon items as the common items for the fleet project. With the drop ratio as it is, it's not going to go down well.

    I've got 100's of the commons and like 3 bells and 2 beads, I wish that there were only to currency in the winter event, like there was in the summer one.

    The vendor shop is not so great, so i will not worry too much about not be able to buy anything. I just bought 2 pieces of costume, the frozen boots and 1 snow weapon and thats all. There is nothing more worthy to spent 1 entire day trying to get 2 grattitude beads to buy something else. So i guess the winter event this year is: fast game on ice and thats all gentlemen!! besides the breen ships, there is nothing more interesting in the event. Im really dissapointed with the vendor shop.. so hard to find some ingredientes here mentioned, and then the things you can buy are really not worthy.. sigh. At least you can buy a weapon for the next year...
