This is either a lie or misrepresentation. You probably mean to say you have only gotten one of YOUR masters. Even this is highly unlikely in 5 months. I was able to get 3 masters in 1/3 the time you posted that I needed just doing instances the rest i bought off the broker. I am sure if people have honestly been doing 5 instances every day they have come out with dozens of masters in 5 months. There is plenty of people that i know for a fact that are even posting here that are only missing 1-5 masters when people had to upgrade 30+ masters each i do not find that rare at all. Spend the cash and buy your masters and stop crying.

and yes i think every npc that can drop a t8 master should be able to drop any 71-80 master.

Bruiser/monk masters are extremely common.

Try to buy templar masters on the broker. The only ones I see on broker are the nukes or the ones that are useless for raiding (stuns, mezes ect). I have never seen any heals or buffs...ever.

One of MY Masters,yes. Other Classes? Plenty. And that wasnt a lie,the only Master that dropped in (Group-)Instances (for my Class,Wizzard) was Glacialshield. 2 Masters in Raid (Raiding Rok since Jan/Feb, 2 Times/week) And Wizzimaster are way overprized on Innovation btw.

Would be nice if the broker allowed for short notes on items, such as "will trade for wiz masters, pst or mail"

Also, a "want to buy" section would be nice for the broker...we should just turn it into craigslist and be done with it...

This is not a lie or misrepresentation. I have looted a whole 1 Guardian master since release of RoK. Have had 2 given to me and have the Master 2 we all get. That is only 4 masters for my 71+ CA's, out of how many?!?

Try buying Guardian Masters on Butcherblock, there are normally 2-3 for sale at 75-200p or so p

Either people are hoarding them or they don't fucking drop enough. I am also in a RoK raiding guild and have never had one drop on a raid. And for many months now of all my guidlies doing random instances, have only had 2 drop for guildies, which were given to me.

TOO FUCKING RARE, FUCK YOU SOE!

Thought I would add to this since it is bollox,the rate on those fucking masters particularly 71-74 I have seen virtually none of these drop or even put on the broker it is pathetic

Please sort this shit out SOE kthx

smileygirl · 05-11-2008, 01:58 AM

well im a 80 templar been doing the runs of zones, and have won 6 master total, but none for my class at all. oh well ill keep trying. just wanted to post and say there are peeps that are that unlucky.

Terra · 05-12-2008, 07:21 AM

I like the "upgrade masters via immense amount of status" and 71-80 masters all having a chance to drop from raid mobs.

Trakanon, Byzola and contested dropping thingies to get quests for a selected master seems like a nice idea also.

Crystal Blast is something I had lost hope of ever getting till I saw it on the broker for 250p. Of course I bought it since there's nothing much else to do with plats except to twink alts or pay the mender :P

Trying to say that the rng (ranger!) works the same for everyone is silly. For one, the guild I'm in has yet to see Hoshkar drop the robe while some other guild is probably transmuting/giving it to alts or whatever since all the mages have it.

The random just doesn't seem random :P

Rhymez · 05-12-2008, 08:22 AM

yeah this randomness plain sucks and there are in fact a lot less masters for some classes as thjey should im doing all instances on daily base aswell since rok launch and all ive gotten so far was 1 brigand master from raids and 1 from instances
i have yet to loot one from the lower tier zones
I bought a total of 2 from the broker and 3 were sold in ooc by idiots to me
what i got a lot were shadowknight berserker and defiler masters period

yea Terra weve gotten one Robe of Dark Power out of VP and we farm it quite a while now have gotten our dunno maybe 15th eye of hoshkar last nite and i have yet to see a lava-forged chainmail of nexona but no we got prolly the 10th or so Softly Sparkling Necklace
3 lava chanelling sleeves at best

nope it doesnt feel random it feels more like specific stuff has a higher weight attached to win the roll for the chest
