    Crystalized Firestones

    I remember a few weeks back they were fixed for a more appropriate drop rate then what they had been. 1 dropped off almost all of the bosses we killed but now we haven't seen one since that week. We've been 6/7hms for awhile now and still just have so few of them. Did they nerf the droprates again? Or are we just having a extremely horrid string of RNG?

    Same here, we clear 25HC 7/7 bosses every week and we lucky if we get 1 firestone per reset after "fix", its absurd.

    My guild has been clearing 6/7 HC 25 man for a few weeks now, according to the armory we've killed 40+ heroic bosses since Firelands was released.

    We've gotten a grand total of ONE Crystallized Firestone.

    6/7 HM. We've had two drop ever. Dunno if that's in line with what they are suppsed to be, but it seems low to me.

    RNG is RNG. We had none for a month and then got 3 or 4 in last weeks clear. We've been 7/7HC for a month too.

    They're not intended to be 100% drop rate, or anything along those lines. It's an additional piece of loot, it's intended to be a low drop rate.

    For a guild who needs around 18 ina 10 man and have only seen 1 in 4 weeks, id say we have bad luck!

    Theres a guild on server who have had around 11 in the same 4 weeks. Its pure RNG, It should have atleast a 33.3% chance imho!

    Its not RNG its broken, the drop rate has been datamined and its no where near this low. GMs iv ticked have admited its broken on 25 and they dont know when to expect a fix.

    Honestly I think this was a very good idea in theory, but they implemented the way of acquiring it quite horribly, IMO, and I think most would agree. To me it would make sense if they made them a 100% drop from all heroic bosses that do not drop a tier token (so Rhyo and Beth in this case)..one for ten man, 3 for 25 man. I don't see how this is unfair, esp as H Beth is (or was) harder than a lot of the bosses that dropped H tier tokens anyways, nor do I think this is a crazy OP amount to get each reset. I haven't seen any drop yet, but don't they also drop *instead* of an item from the loot table? I think that is a bunch of shit.

    We clear it each week, and I saw the first one drop tonight. Something is broken.

    I dont know if i should feel bad or lucky, but pre-nerf our guild was 2/7hm with about 5 total heroic kills and we've had 3 drop from those 5

    What? Are you sure you know how that stuff works? Drop rates can't be 'datamined'.

    Stupid failed experiment. Hope they never do this kind of thing again.
