Guild Wars 2

The drop rate for the fang from the teragriff bosses during The Breach event may be bugged. Several players have reported that they’ve needed 16-32 attempts before they got it.

Based on the green extractors having a 100% of giving either a tendon or fang, and the white extractor has a 100% chance of a tendon, it’s probably safe to assume that getting a fang should have a 50% probability at least. While it is possible to go that many attempts without one, it does strike me as odd that it’s for that particular boss set.

Could a dev check the drop rate, and also related variables, to verify that everything is behaving correctly and like the other bosses?

Is anyone else having issues with getting fangs from these two bosses? I got mine from the freebies you get from doing the story so I can’t really give my experience.

I got my terragriff fang the first time through defeating those two bosses. However, it took me four tries to get the troll fang I needed. RNG is RNG. :\

Yeah. However, if people are using the correct extractor and not getting a fang after 15+ tries, it may be worth looking into. It could still be RNG.

Have a number of issues with this games’ RNG. At present- just finished unsuccessful attempt #12 at red for ‘fang’ (yes – using appropriate extractor and didn’t have similar issue at the other boss locations). Assuming that the drop rate for each item is similar (tendon/fang/toxin gland) then the odds of NOT getting the fang after 12 tries is 0.68% (if drop rate is not equal (ie: toxin gland seems to be a less frequent drop overall)then the above noted % would actually be even worse! ). Of course, the argument is that this is after all, RNG – however, this problem has not been isolated to just this event (I won’t be more specific as there are apparent EULA issues related to a detailed discussion).
