So, just completed the 13 quests in Fey with a group of 6 and the following "Fey weapons" dropped:

Player 1: 0
Player 2: 3
Player 3: 1
Player 4: 1
Player 5: 4
Player 6: 1


Please, if you are going to add coins, then ADD them, do NOT replace gear for them!!!!

Coins don't replace gear drops.

Coins don't replace gear drops. Although not sure why coins drop in feywild, thought they were supposed to be Eberron specific.

Since coins were added, hardly anyone I know is getting "Fey" weapons dropping. Last Week after 13 quests, I would have 8-10 items to "Feed" or keep as upgrades (named loot). The last 2 days have been next to nothing!

I have ransacked most quests out there over a dozen times between my toons, so I have a base line to start with. I will run a few more chains out here this weekend and compare, but if drop rates stay like this, I will just take a break and come back after the festival is over.

So, here is an update to this issue.

After running 2 toons through all 13 quests again on R1 for speed, here are my results:

Toon 1: 1 Fey weapon
Toon 2: 3 Fey weapons

Before coins came out, each toon would have had 10-12 of these items and I was also opening every optional chest (just to make things fair).

So, looks like it is a good time to take a break from farming gear...........oh, and BTW, coins drop in raids also.....Thanks DEVS!

how many named items did you get? Doesn't it work like Ravenloft? You only get a weapon if you failed to roll high enough for a named item?

More sub-par programming from the mehwild expansion ....

No offense Op, but your sample size is EXTREMELY small...most "random" tables require thousands and thousands of repetitions to see a distribution curve.

Humans are notoriously bad at understanding random (https://cocosci.princeton.edu/tom/papers/hard.pdf),

and great at seeing patterns where there are none https://bigthink.com/endless-innovation/humans-are-the-worlds-best-pattern-recognition-machines-but-for-how-long)

I am sorry that you have entered what you believe is a "drought" of items, but i assure you, getting 10 named items from 13 quests (33% chance of a drop on elite/quest) is way above the normal. Don't confuse your previous "hot streak" as the mean.
