Yea it's really repetitive and boring to farm teeth.
i agree, this must a have a fix ! it is very boring and frustrating to farm theeth, even with this high price i dont get excited to farm it
If you can't farm something hard but valuable, go farm something easy but worth less (like crates). If they make the teeth easy to farm, they'll have no value -.-
Yes, if its easy to farm then whats the point of mythic item for quest!! It was supposed to be this way..grind grind and more grind for that mythic
Just no !
So many asked for a mythic item that can be farmed without spending a single plat. Now what's the problem?
And that's why so many people are "poor" in game. Because they don't want to spend time playing it . They want everything to be handed on a silver platter because somehow they deserve to be "rich".
You can be "rich" in game playing it not whining on the forum cause you don't have golds for an arcane egg and all nub rogues are killing you with a single shot in PvP.
I want the mythic pendant quest to be freaking hard . I have 101 teeth. And I'm not paying for a free item like dragonite bar.
" ew sts sucks... they didn't give us free arcanes "
Hey at least it's only 150 teeth
I don't have a problem with farming. What I have a problem with is running hours for 1 tooth since it's based on luck.
1. Raise the price tag for the items and give the teeth a 100% drop rate. Anyone remember the Elite Blacksmoke quest? It needed 1000 pieces or so, but the drops were abundant. At least you were guaranteed progress, no matter how minuscule it was.
2. Fix the DC issues, so we can safely play Elite.
You have to admit it is quite ridiculous the grind for it; they're only whining because although its farmable farming that many teeth isn't that simple for people that can't atm access the top gear or aren't as used to repetitively running these maps.
I'm one of those people and I'm not asking it to be handed to us but at very least give us less experienced players more hope also taking into consideration it might take us 2-3x as long per map without even guaranteeing a drop.
I think we only want it to be easier since there is a high demand for it right now and most of us don't have many teeth.
If it were 100% chance, it'd be just like hauntlet. Look at the prices of hauntlet pets right now.
I have to farm 47 teeth more. And I'm one of the people who asks to don't change the drop rate. It's nothing wrong with it. It works fine. If they change the drop rate i could ask to multiply my current dragkin amount of teeth with the chances. Because i overfarmed the map insanely when it was released. I'm not a PVer. It's not fun... But makes me happy running for something like the new mythic pendant. What's the purpose of this anymore ?
People should make up their minds. Farm or find it in locks.
A highly demand item means work... Who doesn't want to work should pay.
I don't think you're seeing my point here. A majority of the players in AL are in a situation to where they don't know the people nor have the gear to farm these as good. I'm taking into consideration the noticeable difference that you must not know of between the rich and the poor. The experienced and the inexperienced
And why would they add teeth because you farmed a bunch before the actual update?
Explain me, what's the reason for changing the drop rate? Because I can't tell the drop rate wasn't changed before. It's same drop rate that was months ago when Tindirin was released.
If you are going in CTF some players shouldn't kill you because you are unfleshed?
Learning the hard way makes you pro
(bolded text) That was sarcasm
They should raise the drop rate for elite. Takes more time in elite, but you get the teeth. Anyway, the quest should be hard. You don't want people running around with mythic amulets
This is what happens when you run normal maps for teeth.
Go to elite where the teeth drop is higher and you won't have this issue, or at least you'll have an easier time of it.
There is nothing wrong with the current drop rate, you just have to actually work for it.
Lol there's not much to "learn" it's just the extra time and effort without progression that frustrates people. Don't get me wrong this game is amazing but the pve mechanics aren't exactly rocket science
But i guess this leaves me two options: Either way my options are poor my life savings into the game or grind through hours of frustration and deaths to enjoy the finer things in the game.
Guess it is what it is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Actually I think bosses used to drop teeth more often a few months ago like 1 tooth every 2/3 runs..
I ran with legendary equipment in elite tindirin to get the drops and gold for a mythic set, you just need to run with some op friends, it certainly can be fit for players with legendary gear
If you know how to run elite wilds it should take no more than 10 mins a run, maybe 15 tops. Also, if you're wearing legendary druid gear or magma gear it should be enough to get you through a few runs with no problem, As long as you have a competent team you'll be fine.
If teeths will be easier to farm, the rewards will be cheaper too, so its no different..
My mage ran it on full legendary gear and legendary pets and it sure wasn't 20 mins and I even ran with a pug.
I'm sorry but I don't even slightly believe some of you. Some may be either lying or were in a full party of well geared friends atm. Sorry if I sound rude but pls do show me a video and I'll surely believe any of this than [emoji1]
Also can anyone tell me if there's any faults to my setup (honestly looking for advice)

Besides the point I'm still rocking the +25 power ring of brut
I would use 5/5 aimed, 5/5 nox, 3/5 pierce, 4/5 veil and rest into bonus stat dex, int, str, armor, and leftover wherever except movesp and damage. Remember you need to run with at least one tank and preferably one mage. The rest is all positioning and skill to not die and defeat mobs/bosses which comes with practice. Grimm is a good pet continue to use that
I would also find an expedition bow of potency, you want to deal damage without dying and daggers force you to be close to mobs
Find an elite map farming guild thats what I did, and it isnt easy, even the best have to take their time
Elite tindirin is not that easy period!
Ofc you can run that place in 15 min or less if you're in op parties but anyway, that's still a huge waste of potions...
You should try understand noobs mentality. Spending a large amount of money on potions is a don't for newbies, I don't think they're willing to spend 30k on potions. And there are other things, for example I'm a noob, and I feel quite uncomfortable when running in a pro party, I feel like this is gonna be my last run with them, they're gonna kick me out, they're gonna call a stronger player to replace me..
This might sound silly but these are all factors that might discourage players.
Btw I ran elite wilds in a legendary pt a decent one, 2 wars 1 mage and 1 rogue, and couldn't proceed, kept dying I still remember that cuz I never died so many times in a dungeon run.
I dunno who said elite tindirin is easy to complete with legendary gear as long as the pt is skilled, but that's not true.
In general the drop rate is awful, and has been awful for a while now!
I just spent the past three hours aggressively farming Elite Jagged Trail with a really good party. Mostly 5-7 minute runs, using combo or reroll the entire time. Out of 18-20 runs, I got 4 teeth, 0 pinks, 1 Elite Silver Dragonchest. I saw one lv40 Totem of Brutality and two EGD's throughout the entire run for everyone in the party...let me repeat that....ONE LEGENDARY DROP! At this rate, that implies less than a 1.5% chance for a legendary item (not even a lv41). No locked crates, no archons, lol@vials.
Given how much was spent, in pots, revives and elixirs, this turned out to be a complete waste of my time and money. Drops have been exceptionally bad! So, today, I spent the better part of my afternoon rerolling for greens and junk epics! If I were at least getting teeth every other run, perhaps I could say that the runs could be worth it...evetually. But, with these rates, the only value I see is simply having fun with my friends, because otherwise, every time I step into an elite, I'm losing money.
I sympathize with you. It just seems that elites are evolving into a one-hit fest, with every subsequent new elite release (tindirin, arena and soon tombs) all about killing you and forcing you to revive with plat or ankh.
At least if you are swarmed with a dozen mobs and DPS'ed to death, you can understand, because at least there is a strategy to get out of that.
There is no strategy behind being one-hit.
Beyond that, Legendaries can succeed in elites. Up until last season, I didn't have a single mythic or arcane item; yet I was competent enough to run. Yeah, you end up dancing on the razors edge between life and death, but a good player is a good player, regardless of gear. Top gear may shave off seconds or even a minute off of a run, but don't think that it makes you inferior. I've encountered plenty of top geared players that were so bad in elites it boggled the mind.
The major difference is that the Legendary and/or non-wealthy player runs defensively, while "whales" if you will, run offensively. One is a bit slower, but safer, the other puts value on time over gold/plat. It's merely a matter of play-style and what you put a priority on.
If I am running with elixirs, expect a full offensive onslaught where I willingly place myself into danger, just so I can kill and complete the map faster. If I am running pure, I tend to be a tiny bit safer, but still somewhat reckless. It's all a matter of knowing what you can handle, knowing the topology of the map and the mobs you can tank. For instance, I KNOW I can tank the spiders in Caves, but Shamans, snakes and scorns I cannot. So I have no issue fighting in the middle of a pack of spiders, but I am a bit cautious when facing the shaman, since I know his stomp will one-hit me.
Elites should have a guareented tooth drop every run. That's still 150 runs(For dragon bar) which if you average runs at 10 mins a piece is 25 HOURS of grinding. 25 hours... Let that sink in with 100% chance. Now if you're starting at 0 then it's probably 40 or more hours of elite runs to get ONE item.
Crazy if you ask me.. Yet I'm in there doing it like everyone else. Maybe I should get my head checked!! ;)
