Small Shards (Shroud)

[Braxion]

For the love of god, please do at least one of the following:

1) Increase their drop rate in Shroud, or add them to the other Shroud chests as well

2) Make them bound to account

3) Sell them in the store (which already has small ingredients)

I have been on multiple shroud runs, including runs that were just running part 1 for shards and out of all of those runs I have only received 1 small shard. Also that shard was given to me by someone who didn't need theirs.

Please consider what I posted above.

Thanks

I've run the shroud at least eight times between last week and this week not completing trying to get a small shard. I've seen ONE drop in those eight runs and it was for someone else.

On my rogue i have run 50 shroud completions, in addition to about 30 farming runs in part 1, do date i have had 1 low shard drop for him. All items i have completed have been due to others giving me shards.

Of my 9 characters that i run through shroud with over 200 completions, i have probably had about 10 low shards drop if that. 1 every 20 runs is absolutely ridiculous. Call it bad luck or whatever you want, but the randomness counter is bs.

However i am realistic enough to know that this wont change. Apparently introducing a skull next to your name when you are dead (like your name being red, and having no hitpoint bar wasnt enought) is more important and more worthwhile of developers time than actually addressing anything that is of concern to the wider community. Then again maybe skulls were important for some people.

An easy solution would be to allow shards to be downscalable. Use a sup shard or greater instead of a normal. This would fix the problem without having to address drop rates.

And if you really want to make money in the store, sell rare things like these.
That's what I would pay for anyway.

Well since smalls now drop out of the Pt 2 chest it would only make sense if Small Shards dropped there as well.

Oh wait, I used logic, didn't I? That means Turbine won't pay attention :)
