Cursed gnomes were supposed to not drop keys anymore. But just now after reset (so during vault event) this gnome dropped a vault key.

My guildmate has also got a vault key from a cursed gnome.

We were promised that it wouldn’t happen! So, this makes me wonder if the increased chance is also a lie.

A little over 100 battles and I FINALLY get a Cursed Gnome, and it drops a VK. Last time they said the Cursed Gnome rate was increased I got a whopping 1 after 1K+ battles. With these increased rates, I just used up my 1 chance to get runes just to get a VK.

Just got a vault key from a cursed gnome. Given that this clearly isn’t fixed I’m going to assume the 50% increase in cursed gnomes is also not active either. Just more lies from the devs. Utter rubbish

Just got one dropping a VK myself as well after waiting just shy of 250 battles to encounter one. Absolutely livid.

I spammed one round of GaP in e3 (for keys), got 3 cursed gnomes, who dropped 4+2 runes for a total of 6 runes and… 1 epic vault key that they said was changed to _not_ drop from them any more.

Anyone wonder why it’s hard to take these devs seriously?

edit:  
uhhh… so… I just noticed this:

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/4/4/44f8c6793b4ee6a1715463658639297c11e77252.png)  
I had 30 runes before I did my e3 spam run. I got 4+2 runes as drops, for a total of 6 runes.  
30 + 6 = 35.

… what?

All throughout the Alliance we are getting keys instead of runes. It’s almost like being trolled by the game!

3 cursed gnomes found, 2 of them dropped a vault key. In a palooza I have not a problem with a vault key, but of they occure outside it is really annoying. 😥
