Recipe: Chaos of Lyssa drop rate
It is basically an hour of game play with nothing to show for it! I have no idea what they were thinking on this. I opened maybe 200 and decided it was not worth my time in the gauntlet. Based on forum posts and my experience I just cannot find any reason to try for this recipe any longer.
Agreed. I opened just over a stack of chances and didn’t get anything other than tokens. Not even enough of them to trade in for something slightly interesting. Now that I’ve ran out of tickets and can’t be bothered to either earn or buy more, I guess I’m done with the gauntlet.
Metrics are unknown but at the ups and downs of buy orders I’d estimate about 12 have touched the tp since the pavilion went live?

Are they affected buy magic find?
The festival is going to be until July 1st, so I believe that’s why Anet hasn’t touched the drop rate.

People are going to farm less and less, which will mean the value will stay relatively the same, so I don’t think an extra 4 weeks will change much. Heck, they could let it go for a year and I’d bet that prices would still be in the 300g range.
so eventually itll go to the hands who has Precursors are in the exact situation. Multiple legendary holders ARE NOT people that play the game a lot or even play well for that matter. They’re held by people who are good with spreadsheets or (and most importantly) trade gems for gold.
That’s just a sweeping generalisation.
I have 3 Legendaries. I did not get them from playing the TP or from buying any gems. Incinerator I was able to make after the first ever Karka event when a lot of people got precursors from the Queen (I myself didn’t get one) and the market got flooded and tanked, Spark cost me 130g on a buy order.
Quip took me a while to get because at first I didn’t want it, but I liked the Chaos Gun skin, funnily enough, at the time Ilya and Lyss were 3 times the price of Chaos Gun which I picked up for 50g.
Bolt I made two weeks ago from playing around with the forge and was lucky enough to get 2 Zaps and 2 Lovers over the course of a few weeks at a total cost of around 200g in exos.
As for not playing a lot, I’ve been playing since beta. I’m also R80 PvP and was in the 60s before the April patch that gave everyone a dragon.
So… about what you said…

congratulations! you’re an exception.

I don’t agree, my friend is currently making his 3rd legendary in as many weeks because like me, he got very lucky with the forge this last month with 8 precursors. He has also been playing for the same amount of time as is also an R80 in PvP.
You are making sweeping generalisations because people have what you don’t and want to think that these people are low skill, hardly play, must play with spreadsheets, must buy gems, any stupid excuse just to make yourself feel better ranting away because people have something you don’t.
I think the odds of me getting a precursor are better than getting a recipe

it always amazes me that people don’t understand rng. rng is rng. time played, skill level, etc. none of those are factors for it, and considering this is an mmo, the likely hood of people who play “casually”, for lack of a better word atm, is greater than dedicated people, excluding verticle progressions, which I don’t want brought into this game, but that’s another topic.
So, back to the topic, we’re supposed to farm gauntlet everyday for over a month for a chance to get the recipe?

Wrong because you still wont get it.

after watching the price for several days (and the rarity), i’ve decided this item is perfect for flipping purpose.

I will not let this topic die. Make it drop guaranteed by exchanging 10000 festival tokens for it or something.

But that would mean it won’t be worth 1500 Gold after that. That would be unfair to those who purchased it and value it at that price.

That can be said about anything sold/bought on the TP. It can go both ways. What about those that sold precursors for cheap? Should they be re-compensated? What about the revers, those that got to sell them for high prices before they dropped in price due to karka event? Its the same in the real world. Just look at the prices for new electronics. There are always those that spend more than others, just to have one at the time. This doesn’t mean everyone has to pay that price. Stop trying to cause exclusive items for only the rich top 1% of the players.
Please give us a keyring…

Actually, it’s not an exclusive item. It’s an extremely rare one that’s tradable between players. In my Gold BB group, two people had gotten them in different days, and they aren’t rich by any means. When we take breaks between runs, they opened their chance bags. One person got it on Friday, and one person got it on Saturday.
Edit – Well, at least one of them is rich now, since he sold it for the 2,000 Gold Buy Order.

Are they getting bags outside of the gauntlet? Does the downstairs event reward this?

No, from the bags from the Gauntlet.
chaos of lyssa
i believe there is actually really something wrong/to low drop rate
i open around 250 wintersday gifts to get a light of dwayna at christmas
i open around 1000 today and not get a singel dwayna or grenth
maybe they believe this items are to cheap and set the drop rate down
and the lyssa is now "TO"low
i rly hope for a hotfix
to at least increase drop rate
i would be fine if its around 10g same as the other ones
precursor
i remember a time (first southsun update)
there was a comment from anet staff
precursor price is to high
(i hard try to find that dam tread but with the not working search its hard to do that)
that time at around 500g for the expensive ones
and they crash it down with the final event and high drop rate on the chest
and we are momently twice that price
rly i can t wait for anet to step in
and crash them down
i hoped we get a good ls1 final reward
with something similar
20slot bag
1 ascendent scarlet earing (all stat)
and 2 exotics with high chance on precursor
but instead we get what ?
i forget it sry
obsidian and some other stuff
i can t remember
maybe i look on wiki later
but this not happened ;/
so i hope at least this time they interferer and increase the lyssa drop rate
but with that comment from john
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/livingworld/fotfw/The-hidden-truth-about-the-Chaos-of-Lyssa/first#post4083339
rly i don t believe it anymore :/
and last but not least sry for my bad english
but this post i made a save bet
gets eerased/ clean up as well as some others

When I saw this wall of text, I thought you had written a poem about Chaos of Lyssa’s drop rate lol!
uhm yeah maybe next time i do it more compact but yes we have to wait like every time and watch what happen
Anet really should have put in a reverse-diminishing returns mechanic into the chance bags: each time you open one and get nothing (aside from one lousy token), it increases the chance to get something, and once you do get something, the chance resets back to the base chance.
That way people who actually grind thousands of chance bags actually get something for their effort while still letting people get incredibly lucky.
Opened a bunch, didn’t get. Moved on. I can never find a instance that wants to go for gold, so I get tokens really slow. Such is the life of RNG.

i lol’ed at those who bought CoL at 1k++ gold

^ pretty much this but lol’d harder.

Best not to laugh yet….initial reports seem to indicate that the drop rate may still be incredibly low, despite changes.
Reminds me of the adjustments to ascended boxes from guild missions and wvw. Even after the change you will be lucky to see one in solid months of trying.
As a VERY casual player who got his recipe from his 50th gauntlet chance, I still agree that this is completely unfair, even though it happened to work out in my favor. There’s no reason I should have something that other people farm endlessly for and never get. I didn’t try at all.
