Did someone find this badass in the chests? If yes, which ones? I opened a lot of glory chests since last week and I didn’t drop him… Normally the weekly troop is included the week after his release, no? ---

I think I’ve seen him drop from a glory chest last week, but I wasn’t exactly looking for him. Runesmith certainly should be in there. I’ll keep an eye out. ---

Been wondering the same thing. Not a single Runesmith so far, in about 1000 Glory chests and 100 Gem chests. ---

Hmm true, i opened 50 gem chests, and god knows how many glory keys, and didn’t get a single one. ---

I haven’t gotten a single one yet as a chest drop as well and I’ve opened a bunch. ---

@Sirrian, @Nimhain: Can you confirm if Runesmith is in the chests? ---

He isn’t in chests yet (at least I believe so). Event troops appear in chests about 2-4 weeks after their events at the moment. ---

He was in Event Chest though. That’s usually the means for getting them ASAP. ---

Any chance we could get the chest update again in the weekly event notes, so the crazier collectors among us know when it should be dropping? ---

Apparently, he wasn’t released this week… _wait another week_
