PvP Track Artifacts are Stupidly Hard to Get

[Crowdad]

I'm now up to track 51 and NOT A SINGLE ARTEFACT HAS DROPPED.

I've farmed for 30 hours for absolutely nothing. Why is the drop rate so abysmal when all other artefacts are so easy to get?

This needs to be addressed. It's not fun.

You've only had 2 chances at them so far, PvP track 29 check point 3 and PvP track 39 checkpoint 3.

That's got to be a joke. I have to farm 5 hours at least for 1 roll?

Just edited my post. After track lvl 100 you start getting a lot more consecutive track levels with a drop chance.

Thanks for your detailed reply. That's seriously f'd up. Other artifacts you can farm in literal minutes but for just one you are looking at dozen of hours to MAYBE get one?!
That's gotta be the worst design I've ever seen.

Yeah and a lot of artifacts are locked behind mutated expeditions so if there is one that you want you have to wait for the expedition to be on the mutation rotation, and if it doesn't drop for you, you'll be waiting till the next rotation. Could be many weeks.

Well that seems like a colossal waste of time... Time to move on to another game I think. This is bad design and is not respectful of the players' time.

Haha lol. Try being a furnishing crafter and getting a lucky rabbits foot, stacked deck, or loaded dice. Well I feel the pain, at least those things are on "sale" at the auction house for those who that have gotten lucky to get those to drop.

Yes, I agree the PvP track artifacts are very difficult to obtain and get the lucky drop.

[Crowdad]

I've made a complaint (for all the good it will do) to their support staff and forums but I'm sure as hell not wasting my time with a reward system that basically hates you.

[Crowdad]

Surprisingly the support staff got back to me real quick but basically said 'Lol sucks to be you keep grinding'.

artifacts being locked behind pvp track is a dumb design

Now you might say "but oslo theyre mostly pvp related and are all garbage in pve"

These are four pieces of gear i will NEVER be able to acquire unless i sit and suffer through hundreds of hours of OPR, or THOUSANDS of hours of grinding the same boring pvp quests over and over and over again. It makes me kinda aggravated especially for serenity

2025 and it's still broken af. I guess we cant expect much anymore
