Now i complete 2 sets of primordial talis and cost me almost 1k ironite in refill, this event is over now
1000 ironite and many dungeons later: 4 primordials. Need to buy the missing ones from the store. 1500 all together.
I bough the 2 in the store to complete my set 2 days ago but in the morning I won 2 more (stupid me) so I continue grinding (need 2 more to complete the will set or I will mix with 2 remaining)
180 rounds in hard - 2 primordials
~50 rounds in normal - 3 primordials
lol, did they get drop scaling the wrong way around!? Anyway, 1 more to go now! #fingerscrossed. I'm not sure if it was just blind luck and whether I should change back to hard, or keep going on normal!!
I got nothing! Not a single Primordial..,
I'm a bit over 200 runs, did all of them, Madness (not that much but 20-40 runs?), Hard, and at last because this event kind a sucks, i just ran normal..,
Didn't do the Warrior Madness too. Because it get's kind a boring and i have some of the sets what Warrior Madness Achievement offers.
I''m done with this.., i need to complete the 200 Wins in Arena..,
Btw. would be cool in the future to have 5+ Events or so in a week.
Still not one drop of Primordial. Maybe this event was not for me.
Update:
I received my first Primordial. Hopefully, this is a sign.
1 mega refill and 5 normal refills and not one Primordial.
Didn't even know primordials dropped until I was reading through here. Since all my sands of time were going into cyborg dungeon I figured I better check since I missed out getting them through the sac event. One. I had one. I resigned myself that it wasn't going to happen. Next day I got 5 more.
What!? Thats awesome!Quote:

Oh well, cant complain. Im hoping all the yellow rare souls will help with the wickerdeer sacathon coming up!
I did nearly 24/7 grinding in the hard dungeon the last couple of days, and got a full set. Drop rates were on the low side this time, but happy a few finally dropped for me in the end.
Got a full set, only grinding hard level during the event.
4 super refills, 2 or 3 normal refills. During the weekend I still tried to get two more to complete my third set, but not one single drop.
30 rare gunner souls, also.
I finished with 2 complete sets + 2 talis more (and 2 from the original set)
2 mega and 6 normal refill, but playing it only on hard, I got only 1 primordial...
I think I receive 4 primordial talis finally in hard mode. 24 souls that I keep for the next sacrifice event and 90 FC (a very good surprise)
10 Primordials and I bought 2 more to get 2 full sets. 32 rare gunner souls collected through fragments.
I completed this almost entirely on hard mode. I also didn't finish the 15 battles with Warrior characters on Madness mode (as in, I completed 0/15). I already have a few of that talisman set and IMO wasn't worth the bother completing it to get another full set.
I mostly lost track but I did get 10 primordial which in the end meant two more full sets as I had spares from the last one. So that was fine - I did all but the Warrior mission on Madness (well I did it once) as I really didn't need the tallies as got several sets already. The event was fine. Not cashed in my frags as I may keep them for precious souls as not real need for nay of the potential characters from the available gunner list - but again that is fine with me. Really just hording a bit until I see what we have for the xmas events as it may be another resource destroyer.
I completed all event challenges and did some extra farming in Hard to finish a rare-soul. I did not see a single Primordial. I do have 2 sets so it's not like i need them anyway but just for the record.
I have to say that I think these events are really good and it seems that they are becoming an integral part of the monthly event list.
For newer players, the general balance in the game (and also in PvP) it was enormously important to create opportunities to get the rare 6 set Talismans (except for money). As long as the subtypes alternate properly, we will be able to better fit the sets to the specific character and their damage type in the future again.
However the RNG seems to be so different for the drops, sorry for the people who didn't have enough drops for 1 complete set! I think it would be important that every player gets the chance for 1 complete set with about 200 runs. In the end I had 13 talis and enough fragments for 32 gunner souls at an estimated 350 runs about 95% of them on madness.
The 3 difficulty levels allow different tactics, from rushing through to levelling up characters to well thought out planning how to farm the highest difficulty secured on auto-play. In addition, the specific challenges with increased difficulty - for me, no auto-play was possible with madness only with warriors - a welcome diversion of play. 15 runs might have been a bit much, 10 might fit better.
For newer players, however, these challenges are hard and the madness one probably absolutely impossible, I would say. Still, a set of talismans could jump out, plus the guaranteed other set if each level was cleared once, and at least the chance of one or the other good gunner character through the fragments and the small boost for a guaranteed cyborg Eddie.
The additional drops from Shards, SoW, FC, Ironite were really great. This justifies the relatively high SoT costs relatively well.
I'm already looking forward to the next Dungeon!
I gotta say, it was really smart to have Sands of War as one of the drops in the Cyborg Dungeon when there was an Arena event happening at the same time. \m/Quote:

9 mega en 11 normal refills got me 11 primordials plus the 2 I bought in the store brings it to a total of 13 primordials.
I’m happy with that score.
All in hard btw.
mikmar: I am sure I did well over 2000 runs to get my 10 primordial drops, maybe more.
At least 10-12 runs/refills, one primordial talisman.
Really stingy drop rate for primordial talis,although I did a big amount of reruns through hard mode (just one piece earned). I am glad I have managed to "flow" with this game, in terms of not getting "crazy" anymore of earning whatever is on every event. This way I don't get pissed over a game full of bugs, I save some ironite, and finally just have more fun. I even don't get pissed anymore whenever I get a crush in my every 3rd consecutive battle in gauntlet (every single time), resulting in a loss of Eddies towards the extra SSS, ranking, and SOW. :) :) :)
I really don't understand this stingy droprate.., in other Events you could "farm" these Talis.., i think it was sacrifice event? And here.., i got a SINGLE Primordial after 220-250 runs or so?
1 drop in 220-250 runs is really bad bad luck, sorry man! Statistics can be really nasty!Quote:

As I said before I have the impression that these Dungeon Events will take place on a regular basis - in December we'll have another one. We had Eclipse and Primordial now, so the next should be Eternal, Valor and Oracle (don't know in which order and Oracle already showed up elsewhere).
If I am right that this will be a continuous rotation we will see many chances to collect these great Talis! Please don't forget to rotate the subtype aswell!
This would mean that we can complete a started set in the next rotation, but it would take 5 months to see the same type again... which is a bit long (but long term motivation!). So maybe the Talis will also be added to some other places in the game. I still think adding BNW levels 11 + 12 would make perfect sense with harder enemies and the 6 set Talis included in the drops there. Plus in new Skull Quests. And Satellite :)
Lol if you think 1 drop in 200-225 runs is bad, I got 1 drop in 400+ hard runs and almost 100 madness runs. That’s about 8 mega refills just to get 1 primordial.Quote:

3 in 2 days and nothing all others....
