New Primal Mount Drop Rate

I'm gonna beg and plead with my FC tonight to run Garuda with a bunch of times :D

Seconding this I would love to get the earth one.

It's true. Before the patch we farmed this for two months straight every night around 1AM EST to 5AM EST and didn't see but one drop. A guy in our group rolled on it by mistake and won it from the friend we were farming it for. So that's why we kept running it until yesterday. After seeing two drop like that I'm convinced the drop rate is much higher now. Also paired with the fact that the primal accessories are able to be desynthisized into Battlecraft III and Primal Demimateria it's worth running if you have friends that are GSM desynthesis.

Good luck with your farm!

That's awesome! Thank you for posting this. It gives me new hope I will have a Xanthos.

LOL I will try. It all hinges on getting a group of 7 others who will farm at least 5 times (or more).

So, last night I was able to complete 4 Levi EX runs and 4 Garuda EX runs. I would have liked to have done more, but a few of the DF groups I got in were absolutely horrible.

First Levi EX kill, the mount dropped. I rolled a 4 :mad:

Garuda didn't drop any mount in the 4 runs I did, however she did manage to drop three Rings of Casting in a row :mad:

I know that feeling of rolling singles on something rare.. But you saw one with such short runs. This is awesome.. Might need to make an LS for pony farming..

Thank you both for posting your experience.

You are totally right. I was pissed last night, but now I should realize I should have a positive attitude because in only 8 wins, I saw a mount. That's not bad. Now, if I can just get my FC to farm with me, I'd be golden. Most of them were busy learning Shiva EX.

Yep, mostly because it's hard to find people who can pull themselves away from farming Ninja fates. :D

Was yours the Xanthos or Nightmare?
