So, I’ve been at the gauntlet arena, trying my luck for a Chaos of Lyssa drop. Here are my numbers:

Total Gauntlet Chances: 823

Loot
Favors of the Pavilion: 3

Toxic Backpiece Skin: 1

Mini Toxic Hybrid: 1

No Lyssa drop yet. I’ll keep trying until I’m bored of killing poor Hammerfall. Has anyone else recorded their drop records?

Edit: This is all post-patched.

..I was thinking I was unlucky, since people got their Lyssa dropped around 500 chances. Then again, at least I seem to get a guaranteed drop every 150.

…I just wish those favors were worth more on the TP.

Pre-patch : Approx. 550 1 favor , 1 toxic mini
Post-patch : Approx. 300 4 favors, 1 toxic mini

Chaos of lyssa should be rewarded to players with 8 orbs achiev.
I keep grinding Blizz to get those bags, there is no fun in just to get one recipe.

Pre-patch: 500+ chances = 500+ tokens (3 favors)
Post-patch: 650
chances = 650+ tokens ONLY!

Yep increased drop rate!!!

I guess we have to farm pavillion for hours and hours before we even see everything valuable.

They called us TEMPESTs, but we can use our elite to cheat death instead

2300 chance 7 favor of pavilion 2 chaos of lyssa recipe 1 mini toxic hybrid

Post patch. I still think 1 in 3000 is a ok drop rate, getting 3000 chances is pretty easy if you have ticket, the long part is getting the ticket (even though you make money while getting ticket)

Just now I opened 1000 chance and got = 1 favor of pavilion + 999 festival token. Good going ANet. You will go down in the history of MMORPG as the game developer who had the right goal but wrong people. We will always remember you.

For those of you who are farming for the Chaos of Lyssa (or whatever other drop), you’d get it faster if you just did dungeons instead and then bought whatever you wanted on the TP.

109 chances – 1 Lyssa, 108 tokens

Of course, as you look at the fight, the poor ranger did everything right,
yet was beaten by an omnipotent, invisible assassin of justice, or whatever.

I’ve taken to doing the gauntlet once daily, no gambits for now as I don’t really have the tickets to burn. I might do more BB stuff for tickets later.

So far since patch:
48 chances
48 tokens
1 Pavilion Favor

Tarnished Coast Engineer and… general alt-o-holic.

Another 224 chances, and another favor of the pavilion. Oh joy.

I’m getting bored with Boss Blitz. What’s another way to accumulate tickets? Before I just throw in the towel and farm the gold I’ll need?

I opened roughly 500
Pre-patch: ~200 = 200tokens
Post-Patch: ~300 = 300 tokens.

I already have over 3k tokens. This drop rate is ridiculous. Very few people actually enjoys the gauntlet. Making drops only available there and with such a low drop rate, is in no way shape or form good incentive for people to play it.

If it’s just the Lyssa backpiece you’re looking for and it’s 100g, I’m pretty sure your time would be better spent doing dungeons for the gold to buy it outright than farming the Gauntlet for Chances. Unless you find the gambling fun in and of itself.

In short, trash your Chances and do dungeons.

Since there’s another patch coming this week, I might wait before opening anymore just in case they adjust the drop rates again.

I don’t understand why they aren’t basically “giving” the Favors away.
At 5, 7 or 10 gold per sovereign weapon skin, that’s quite a gold sink.
There’s little point in having more than one of the other 2 rewards and there’s lots of good looking weapon skins.

No reason to delete while I still have plenty of room right? As for now I’ve stuck them all on my warrior who I rarely play anyways, so they’re there when i feel like farming.

That said, plowed out another stack yesterday, got the drop, and I’m 140g richer
