Yeah, as per the title, I just had this happen.

Was playing Auric Basin, at some point the Juggernaut dropped for me, though I didn’t notice until after we failed the meta and I was sitting at the vendors, it was right at the top of my inventory, must have been the or just about the first thing to drop when I entered the area. Probably from an Auric chest I opened on the way to the one Tarir event we completed, clearing the vines from the east gate.

Wiki’d the Juggernaut recipe real quick, realized I had the stuff to make the Gift of Mastery save for the obsidian shards, which I had enough currency for between the HoT maps and SW.

Used up my bandit crests, WPd to the Itzel WP to use the vendor there to purchase the remaining shards. Was flying over a airship cargo chest, so I dropped down to it and cracked it open. And it dropped Storm.

I do not… understand… but, just in case, I’m going to pop the first chest I see in TD and see what happens.

Similar case happened with me today, dropped a zap, spark and venom from Tangled Depths and Dragon’s Stand…

Funny you found more precursors in a day than me in over 11k hours.

1st person worldwide to reach 35,000 achievement points.

I kid you not I repeated the same circumstances in several maps, even with the same chest in the case of auric basin, to make sure I hadn’t discovered a bug. Nothing out of the ordinary. This is hard to accept, I have never had a lucky instance in my life, let alone a streak.

If both of these stories are true all I can say is:

1 – Wow what crazy luck and what are the odds!?

2 – Incoming bug fix where chests were paying out too many precursors due to a misplaced or extra digit in the %.

Since when did this business of being a hero become being a business?

Congratz. In all my hours I’ve had zero luck with pre’s, so I’m just a tad green with envy right now.

I’m with Vephar — a lottery ticket may be in order.

You forgot to add:

And with your lottery winnings by us ALL precursors. :P

Congratulations. I hate you now. You understand why.

I don’t have opinions. I only have facts I can’t adequately prove.

Grats, i can’t even finish the quest to the new legendary because it’s tied to a broken quest. I guess we are meant to rely on the whim of the loot gods since a planned path isn’t possible.

Vini, Vidi, Vici, Viridis…I came, I saw, I conquered…I got a green??

So what you’re saying is that you really don’t need one of them, right? Like, you’d just give the other one to someone less fortunate.

I’m pretty less fortunate!

I got a Balthazar’s Dagger Skin in a Black Lion Chest the other day. Was worth a whole 40g.

Until like 9 people undercut me and now it’s worth 35g.

One foot out the door, yet again.

It’s kind of fun to think that you may be the only person in all of GW2 history this has happened to.

Actually no. Ive seen this happen before. We were running around in wvw as a 20ish man guild group.

after a few fights we waypointed to another border and had a small break for mercs, drinks and chips. Suddenly someone started screaming on teamspeak and spamming squad chat with links to his rodgort and dreamer precursors.

What can i say. rng is rng

Congrats, but know that part of me despises you. I’ve only finally crafted Zap. The journey was fun though.

do any of you wonder if the Korean gambling kitten has made 100,000 players quit the game?
