How will we obtain these, will they be drops from the new dungeon or will they be from the BLC?

Paul Belz.7351:

They drop from the boss chest and are sellable

1. Thank you for replying with a straight forward answer.
2. Any special effects from the jetpack like the voxel particals on the super backpack?

I have a jetpack and I can say that they do not have any noticable particles as of yet. I did notice particles on the gloves thought. (Drippy)

You got that as a drop?

Isn’t 12 days too short a period for people to get these exclusive items?

That’s literally the point.

These will be mine!

What are the chances for me not getting either in 12 runs?

I have run the dungeon three times and have gotten the new mini pet. Guess I got super lucky.

Good thing the chest is farmable multiple times on the same character.

I hope the drop rate is at least good to drop 1 item in 12 runs.

Given the prices of the mini and the Jetpack, I’d say that the drop rate is definitely lower than the 1/50 chance the SAB chests had of dropping the skins.

There are a lot of other factors for price as well though. F&F items pretty much require a 5 person group to obtain, as opposed to the soloable adventure box and it takes triple the time. That means the Molten Facility chest is being opened way less times than the SAB chest was, so there would be a much smaller supply of items even if the drop rate was equal. Also, personally, I find the jetpack far more desirable than any of the Adventure Box skins, which also affects price.

Which leads in to my only complaint, why are the jetpacks rng only? Why could they not go the SAB route and also offer an account bound version for say ten runs through the dungeon? Even ten is pushing it for what most people will do in 12 days, so it would keep it pretty exclusive. The fused gauntlets are awesome, but they aren’t much to show for 4 months worth of living story updates.
I’ve done 4 runs of the Molten Facility so far, and even at the rate of 2 runs per day I’ll probably have no jetpack to show for it, but someone who did it once and got lucky will. I’m not complaining, as I knew full well I’d probably get nothing special from the chest going in, but I wish they complemented RNG with something rewarding those who actually spent lots of time in the new dungeon.

Same here, but I should be able to do 3 runs a day. I think I’ve done it 6 times so far, and all I keep getting is either an inscription (which I have no kitten want for it) or the odd recipe. They either need to patch this quickly to severely increase the drop chance of the mini and jetpack or make this kitten thing permanent.
Not even 2 kitten weeks is not enough time for most people (IMO) to be able to get either of these items (unless they are extremely lucky).

I will try to run this sucker about as much as possible. I want 1 of each and then a couple to sell.

I got the jetpack on the first run. I got a question though, so 12 days does that mean this dungeon will no longer be available in 12 days? And what mini pet drops from it?

Same here, but I just want to get one of each. Don’t really care about selling it. Would keep any that I get, just incase something happens to one (if I get multiples).

It runs till May 12th at noon pacific (I think that was the time stated by Regina), then Rallying Flame portion, from then till May 16th. As for the mini, its Mini Molten Firestorm.

I’ve run it 15 times so far, and have not gotten anything besides cooking recipes and those inscription/crafting stuff. I’ve seen people do 3-4 runs and get the mini, and only one drop so far I’ve seen in my Guild of the jetpack (at 4 runs). I plan to farm this to death and will reply here again (if I remember) if I do get a drop and on what run number. (3 exotic weapon parts and 1 exotic armor part so far, and that’s about it)

There aren’t many rewards out there, so I’d imagine that statistically I’ll get something sooner rather then later.

If only it worked that way. I’m at 35-40 runs and still haven’t got anything besides inscriptions (all rare but one exotic one) and recipes.
