Guild Wars 2

So can someone confirm this is a bug or are you supposed to still get Vials after 20. My last 3 runs of level 20 the only essence I got was 1 vial. Not a glob, not a shard and yes my reward level is 20+. Now to my knowledge isn’t is supposed to be:

Levels 1-9 Vials
Levels 10-19 Globs
Levels 20+ Shards

Personally at this rate It’s going to take me months. With a full time job and 3 kids. I have enough time to run one fractal a night and do the daily. I figure I’m getting about 1 vial every 5 runs. It takes 5 vials to make one glob. 5 globs to make one shard. So at this rate it looks like another 125 fractals before I get enough to upgrade another ring.

Second I’m assuming they are affected by MF? If so do we no need to gimp ourselves by putting on MF gear just so we can get globs/shards to progress?

Your assumptions are correct for the levels they are supposed to drop at. That is according to the Dec 14 patch notes.

•Vials of Condensed Mists Essence no longer drop after scale 10.
•Globs of Coagulated Mists Essence no longer drop after scale 20.

But I can confirm, as you have, that vials still drop 20+. So I would assume this is a bug.

So it sounds like they went in and removed globs from 20 but forgot to remove vials too….. Great. I’d much rather have globs than vials.

So I’m also wondering how they adjusted the fix. Say beforehand you had a .1% chance for a vial and a .1% chance for a glob and a .1% chance for Shard. Did you have a .3% chance of getting something? So when they fix this and remove vials then do we just have a .1% chance of anything? If so the solution would be worse than the problem. Or would they buff it up to say .3% chance for a shard? Would be nice to know.

You will never know the answer to your above questions. They will never give out that information.
