BUFF VEILED ORB DROP RATE!!!

Yeah the droprate sucks, and they took literally all the fun rewards out of betrayal like vorici white sockets while keeping some of the most worthless and pointless rewards in(haku random rare items,Tiny's Trial who even uses that ever lol). They said they wanna rework betrayal so maybe next league its gonna be better. I've probably done over 20 catarinas this league and only gotten like 3 veiled orb drops.

I have had like... 3 in around 12 on this new character.


not seeing this great number of catarina runs and just no tings. Seems to be in line with 1/4 ish

Can get several in a row 3/5 or 1/8....


0 across 25 seems a bit absurd.


0 out of 25 is absurd. So is 0 out 12 or 13 runs. But, 0 out 12 or 13 happened to me. And had the next run not dropped me one, I could have been in the same 0 out of 25 boat.

There is zero excuse for 1 Orb not dropping with every Catarina kill. The orb cost 13 Divine at the time I quit playing. I can only imagine cost has gone up since then. Veiled Orb being that many Divine is completely ridiculous.
Youd have to go through like.... 2 stacks of the intelligence scarabs and not see a single veiled orb in 35-40 runs.



[Removed by Support]

Hyperbole because you didnt see 1 out of 8 or 9

does not mean 0 out of 35-40

Feedback needs to be helpful not misleading.



Honestly ... I think more than 2 stacks of intelligence scarabs I think I am low balling that a lot for you lol


You get Cat like every 5.. maps so in 20 intelligence scarabs thats like 4 of her... so yeah Im MASSIVELY low balling how much of these youd have to go through.

you guys can say what you want. If you can get a veiled orb every 20 maps they wouldn't be 14 divines.
They werent 14 divines when most the players were playing the league (3 week margin)

Thats not correlation in the slightest .... many items and currency behave like this stop it.



You're suggesting that you go through 10+ stacks of intelligence scarabs and not see a single veiled orb



A bit ridiculous and GGG hopefully can investigate claims like this with some back end system.

What is this thread?

Doesn't the fact that people are willing to pay 10+ divines for veiled orbs justify their rarity? If they weren't a powerful tool for endgame crafting nobody would buy them regardless of rarity; that's just basic economics.

Sacred Orbs are far rarer than divines, but because the effect they have is considered to be less useful they're worth less than 20% as much.

This thread seems to be complaining about a problem which by definition can't actually exist.

I'm sure they know how inconsistent they drop. items are only inconsistent when they're relatively rare. 1/4 is an insane claim. last league when i farmed my 50 catas for challenge i only got 2-3. It has to be closer to 1/10.



Killing 10 catas in a row still nets you about 2,8 percent chance to not see any veiled orb drop if the drop rate is 30%. This is 70% to NOT drop each attempt. This is a lot. Human brain doesn't handle random numbers well. It's like we EXPECT to get that rare WoW mount after 100 boss kills if the chance is 1% per kill. But this is not how this works. Running dry 400 kills is not uncommon. Some unlucky players farmed these bosses 1000 times without a drop and gave up.

Drop rate was closer to 10% in 3.24.0 then buffed in 3.24.1.
number 3 :D


also got a diadem


damn so I got 3 in like... less than 10 of these.



and an ephemeral from a chest woooooo

we just cranking out bois



annnd a containment from a safehouse lolololol
