Devs: Please fix VON6 Epic Raid Chest

[Arlathen]

Is this on the radar? I did submit a bug ticket, but I'm surprised no one is shouting up on the forum.

I believe the end Epic chest in the Epic Vault of Night raid (EVON6) is no longer dropping any epic components - Red Dragons Scales, Raid Tokens, and of course no Shards at all.

This is still run - people still want to build an Epic Sword of Shadows, or the original Velah Red Dragon Armour.

Please fix.

I can attest to this, been absolutely no epic items in the chest the last few times I have run it. Just farming to 20 completions now for the eSoS shard because it's the only way currently.

This has been posted by me and other since it began a few weeks ago, I also submitted a bug report. Coco replied to the posts yesterday, so lets hope this gets taken care of as soon as possible.

You are mistaken mate. 20th evon does not drop shards, its not like adq. 20th always drops base items, and the disciplinator rune arm.

Perhaps the Devs could fix this then in addition to the chest loot itself?

*Wishful & Hopeful thinking cap on*

Bah! Okay, thanks for the heads up. Just came back after a long time and got this for adq and figured it would be the same for VoN, that's annoying! Guess I don't need to rush the last few runs then as I already have heroic sword.

Lol, you were expecting consistency??! From DDO?! No chance mate, the whole forum minigame is based on keeping us confused about what is a bug and what isn't!

The shardlist only exists for ADQ because for any epic item you want to make from sands it is really hard to get by all 3 components + item due to the huge amount of items available and the weird mix of quest and wilderness items (and dropchances for them).
It's the same reason 3 to 1 scroll trade-in only exists for sands items. This was made around U13 IIRC. I miss having hard currencies like marailith chain scrolls though. It was really nice for actual trading.

Yes but even then, you cannot get sand item shards, only the raid shards.

The best way to get thornlord, spellstoring ring or other shards from the desert is farming adq1 on a lot of skulls.

So Devs, any idea on if/when this might be fixed?
