to make that damn vault troop so hard to obtain. So annoyed that I even forgot its name. Massive middlefinger to try getting it, especially when that goddamn Cedric shows up all the time. Both should have equal chance of dropping.
Kinda makes you wonder if all other rarities of troops are weighted the same or if we just assume they are. For instance.
My guild has received 6 Queen Aurora Legendary Tasks. But have never received Arachnean Weaver as a Legendary Task. Is that purely luck? Or is it because they are weighted differently despite both being Mythic Troops?
Why aren’t the drop rates for vaults and legendary tasks made public like chests and chaos portals?
Oh because the same Rarity of troops can have different weights and they don’t want to make that info too public? Pretty loot boxy 505 Lames.
Did someone on the dev team say that Heart of Rage and Cedric were supposed to be equally likely? I’ve spent a bunch of Vault Keys lately trying for the Daemon Gnome (no luck), and I have also seen vastly more Cedrics than Hearts.
Nope.
They are just both Legendary Rarity. Which in literally all other aspects (except for the custom troops) of the game have meant that the drop rate has been the same. The fact that they aren’t, is literally unprecedented. And outside of the 20 people that still use the forums. The 200 people that still play gems of war have absolutely no reason to assume their drop rates are different…
Yeah I’ve spent over 100 vault keys and still no luck
Oh well
I’ve given up on asking the devs for anything, still had explore freeze on me this weekend, a year+ long problem for players
Another drop in the bucket
I actually have three Hearts of Rage now and I barely get to play on Vault weekends. No idea how I got so lucky, I wish I could give them to people who need them!!
That’s an interesting thought. I’ve always just assumed all troops of the same rarity have the same chance of dropping, be it from keys, or vault or whatever.
It would be nice if they could implement the rules that they have for Guardians. Once you have them upgraded to Mythic with 4 copies, remove them from the drop table.
I’m sitting on 38 Cedrics & 2 Heart of Rage
wow, @Macawi. Can it be that the drop rate is only harsh when your try to get the first copy of it, then become easier to obtain after for duplicates? Something.
I’ve burned at least 350 vault keys trying to pull one, at least it’s cool to know others are pulling it and i’m not missing out on something gamechanging.
