I drop 1 from a WvW rank chest somewhere around rank 300. I also dropped 2 from tower lords. None of them have stats that I like.

I got an ascended armor chest + 2 ascended rings in the ~100 ranks i made since the stuff was implemented.

It’s great that you have rank 670 now, but if you were already at 450 before ascended stuff came to wvw its less impressive… in a good way?!

I’ve earned about 400 ranks since ascended was introduced and I’ve gotten two drops. Teq has dropped five ascended chests for me in the same time. WvW is weaksauce in its rewards where PVE pays off. Maybe someday that will change.

For me its roughly 1 in 500…as I have opened 500’ish chests and got 1 ascended box.

No other ascended stuff (like rings etc…), even exotics is really low, like 5 in 500.

At least I was lucky with the stats, ptv. I selected greatsword and with it being account bound my 80th lvl Guardian, Warrior, Mesmer and Ranger can all use it.

I had over 1k WvW levels, 2.5k plus hours in the game before I saw an ascended drop. Once they upped the rate I have seen 6 more in rapid succession over a few hundred WvW levels.

I have never seen a precursor drop and I have run champ trains and world events until my figurative fingers have bled including temple runs multiple times per week.

Got a Theodossus weapon chest around rank 10 as a drop from a player.
Got a rampager armor chest around rank 50 and then a Zojja armor chest around rank 100 – both from a WvW rank up chest. My rank now is 150 and MF is 124%.

As support to certain theory that you get good drops for activities you don’t frequent much – I went to do Fractals yesterday for the first time in several months and had a drop of an account bound exotic chest piece (Colossus smth.), a 15g GS with quite a rare skin and a bloodlust sigil and the ascended-class thingy you use to infuse stuff (as far as smne explained to me in my group it’s supposed to be valuable).

I got back into WvW this tournament after barely doing GW2 for two months, in that time I’ve gotten 2 ascended rings (knight and celestial) and 2 armor boxes (cleric and rampager). This was within roughly 30 ranks.

I also got a precursor drop, The Lover, off the tower champ at Anz. So yeah… wvw’s been pretty good to me. Helped me get my emperor title

Don’t be too upset, this is the only place where rng seems to work in my benefit, everything else has been painful. Needless to say, I’m going to be in wvw a lot more.
