**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:**Dear devs, it’s so frustrating to realize every week that you haven’t been able to find a sentinel, for seven months straight. We’re also powerless because we’re limited to the weekly underspire map. Many of us will say, oh well, they’re just worthless troops, but as a collector, I think differently. I’m so frustrated that I’ve even set myself a deadline. So, at the end of the year, it’ll be a 10th anniversary celebration, or a funeral. So, dear devs, do something about the drop rate, or come up with something else, it doesn’t matter. If you don’t plan on changing anything (which is also your right), you can delete my account; you have the permission. Also , why are the drop rates for the guardian treasure chests still a secret for us? You’ve shared the drop rates for all the other chests with us. Are the drop rates for the sentinel troops so extremely low that you don’t want to discourage players? By keeping them a secret, you discourage us even more. Greetings from a loyal level 3501 player with some VIP experience under his belt .

How often does this happen? When did it begin happening? it started about 7 months ago

Steps to make it happen again
play a full underspire map again

Lousy rng not a bug mate. I fully agree with you though. The way itsbeen implemented is nothing short of a disgrace

All drop rates, dragons from the Soulforge, mythic troops in chests, hoard mimics in explore, all data is stored on our servers and not individual player accounts.

If we were to experience any issues with the drop chance for any of these, it would affect all players, as all data is being pulled from the same place. So, no players would be seeing these troops be rewarded.

There are already changes being planned for Underspire to improve it based on player feedback and one of them is to address how difficult it is to earn these troops because their chance to be rewarded from defeating a Treasure Guardian is so low.

But in the meantime, it is not a bug.

Are you able to share the drop rate for sentinels? The other drop rates are already publicized.

I cannot find any instance of the Hoard Mimic chances being shared, which is what this is akin to, and not the same as Chest data.
If it has been shared by a dev, pls link and lemme know!

Huh, maybe I’m wrong there. I double checked and the rates I remember were player estimates, not from a developer. Are these rates intentionally hidden? If so, why? Genuinely curious.

I suspect that stating drop rates causes bug reports from players that don’t understand variance. So they probably post the rates that are legally required in some counties, but don’t go out of their way to advertise everything.

It would definitely be cool to know the numbers.

I believe the reasoning is rather that what hasn’t been published can silently be changed at any time, usually for the worse.

Maybe, but to be completely honest and a little rude, I doubt they remember that many of these game systems exist. I’d be surprised to learn that they’re in there tinkering with the code maliciously.

Drop rate is one thing; I think if something is very rare, it’s more satisfiying to get it. So I’m fine with that. But imo the number of Dupes are frustrating . Get one Sentinel yesterday - huray - but the 5th blue one :frowning:

Would be nice to reduce the max of one kind to 3 or something like this.

You could live with no drops for the next 7 months then ? :rofl:

If I would get a NEW Sentinel after 7 months … maybe:)

Don’t get me wrong, Patje, I completly understand the frustration getting nothing!
