I put a point into it, equipped it and completed events to make the “level”, after completing the “level” I could use the shrooms just fine. I was confused at first too tough.
So for me its just been run 28 with 1 drop (in addition to the achiev). It is really discouraging and makes me want to stop playing this boss ever again after it dropped.
I reall don’t mind having some luck involved but why not add an achiev, perhaps for killing vinewrath X times to get the next box guaranteed, even if its 50 kills? Or implement an RNG that increases the drop chance if you haven’t had a drop recently (say 10 runs) for this type of “collectible” item?
Having some luck involved can be fun i.e. hoping for an item and then having it drop eventually.
That being said its a longish event and it takes time to work up to it and for what it is the drop rate is too low. A realistic guess is probably 30 minutes per event (assuming you take taxies but cannot jump directly from event to event) which means getting these last parts can take hours and hours. That is sorely disappointing after you’ve orked up to the collection part by part over the last months. I cannot imagine how disappointing it is for people not having this much time at hand.
Want people to leave map frustrated and annoyed after finally getting the last drop? That’s how you achieve it, at least in my case. (And I have loved the silverwastes so far!)
The thing that makes me sad about the carapace coat boxes is that I probably would enjoy playing the boss, but currently I am just thinking “when will it drop?” “how often do I have to repeat this?”. At least for me this boss has become a tedium because of this rather than enjoyable content.
