I believe the point was that Reaper bonuses can be on them, thus a Reaper Stat bonus is just a very rare subset of a very rare possible bonus on a very rare item drop. It can happen, but probably wont.
Finding ones past, present, and future in the threads of destiny.
Despite playing reaper almost exclusively outside of raids, I've yet to see a reaper stat helm drop ANYWHERE. But that doesn't lead me to conclude they don't exist.
Fair, but there are lots of screenshots of reaper stat hats around (the OP has 11, for instance) but so far no Feywild reaper stat hat screenshots
If nothing else there's a strong likelihood that Feywild reaper stat hats are at least dropping at a proportionally lower percentage compared to usual reaper stat hats.
It's also possible the OP has just been unlucky, but there's easy proof if they're wrong and that proof has yet to be provided.
Has anyone really factored what the stat boost chances are?
Assume 1:20 for a feytwisted chest, R10 chance for loot is 35%, divide the chance of the helm dropping between all other named loots possible, then figure chance at reaper bonus of any kind, and then add in the chance of it being reaper stat, carry the 1, add the 2...........
Yeah, i always love when players put on their "statistic and probability" helmets and put down the math. So who do we have to entertain us with a more accurate number?

There's no real way to really tell the numbers on our end as players. We can sort of imply certain numbers through data gathered, but that'll always be just a best guess situation with whatever information we base it off at the time. Also RNG is involved after all, so that can skew results in all sorts of ways if left unchecked (which it will be in case of loot drops).
I've seen numerous Reaper Stat helms since its availability; a few my own. At least 6 more for others that I checked on, and numerous more for others. Others have never seen it before.
Another example: Back with the old Mysterious Bauble drop rate, back a while ago, I questioned the validity of the 2% drop rate despite essentially going down to a 0.5% or 1% drop rate check (more than twice the amount required to essentially see one drop, but hit nothing). And yet on my main, I had given one away, then decided I could actually use one too (this was a LONG time ago when Shavarath was end game still), and then ran it against straight away on the next immediate run. And had it drop in my name off the bat. That's RNG for you.
Supposedly it's equal chance, at 25% each possibility for the Reaper extra, but I'm guessing some may be weighted more than others.

Well, this isn't just about Feytwisted chests; the OP is trying to farm Legendary Crown of Snow:
Sure, but it didn't take months or years before the first reaper stat hat dropped lol. OP has 2300 Feywild chest hits, for instance. Not saying that's conclusive, but you'd expect at least one stat hat across all the players of DDO who own Feywild now, no?
You might, but expectations are merely that. If you have a 1 in 1000 chance of something, it's a fallacy to believe with certainty you will get 1 if you roll for it 1000 times, or 2000 times, or 5000 times. Your 5001st roll is still 1 in 1000 against. You may expect that a drop will happen in that sample but nothing is guaranteed. You're right 2300 is inconclusive. I'm not saying there are no such items in Feywild. I'm saying as matters stand we don't know one way or the other. Conjecture is fine. But it's only conjecture.
You are absolutely correct. It is possible that the Legendary Crown of Snow is omitted from obtaining a reaper stat bonus. I bet the devs said "lets turn just this 1 helm off and watch the animals eat each other"
I can see them now, watching this thread shouting "dance silly players dance!!!!!BWHAHAHAHA"

Unless I have just been unlucky my best guess for the chances at a feytwisted chance between and 1 and 2%. I farmed both wilderness and the elemental chest in Make Believe R8 way too much It's definitely well below 5%. OP isn't talking about feytwisted chests at all though.
I assume OP is trying to get the Legendary Crown of Snow with Reaper Ability Bonus (+2 reaper bonus to all stats) specifically for a caster. OP already acknowledged seeing other types of reaper bonuses, but not the reaper ability bonus.
Nobody has posted a helm, but when reaper ability bonuses were added people were posting screen shots almost immediately. So OP is requesting that if anyone has a feywild helm with a reaper stat ability bonus to post it - so far nobody has. It seems OP's assumption is more likely than not given the facts and lack of a single screen shot showing a feywild helm with the reaper stat ability bonus on it.
Still no screenshot...
I've Been ransacking Immortality Lessons on 3 characters looking for the Crown of Butterflies with a Reaper Ability Bonus, I have not seen a single Reaper Ability Bonus helm drop in any Feywild quest. Though I have seen Reaper Power Boost, Reaper MRR and Reaper PRR Helms. Just not a single Reaper Ability.
I don't believe they are dropping.
