Has anybody seen Shadow Bow drop of late?

[Bluevann]

I'm not here to complain because I want a drop, honestly. But here's the thing: I started to farm Stone Vigil just after 2.2 kicked in for the Shadow Bow, as a 41 Bard. I like to keep tracks of my runs, so I keep the counts of tries. I am now lv50, just finished my 39th try, and the bow has never once dropped. I'm not saying that it has dropped and some other bard got it. I really have never seen it drop.

Needless to say that I'm counting only the successful runs, not including the many ones that were canceled due to tanks or healers leaving.

Some of my friends are starting to say that I should report this as a possible bug, cause 0/39 on a 11% drop rate is a really unusual result. But I don't want to post a bug without having confirm that no one else has seen the Shadow Bow drop since 2.2; I am still convinced I have just bad luck.

I have seen every other weapon drop during my runs, soooo... can anyone confirm the bow still drops? And please, I know there are bows with similar skin for glamour, and that to most of people my crusade is just not worth it, but this is just how I play, and I like what I do. Not trolling on anything, mine's just a genuine concern.

EDIT: Just wanted to inform everyone that this morning, on my 44th attempt, I've finally made it!



Thanks to all of you; I would've probably given up if I hadn't read of other people getting this bow lately. Never give up, guys!

Snip.

Unfortunately, RNG is RNG. I've never seen the Fists drop, but i have every other weapon except the PLD one. I've had the Shadow Bow since my first 50 Job went through there leveling, But i sincerely doubt the loot tables have been messed with since.

Good luck in your hopefully continued efforts to acquire the bow

I actually got it well before 2.2 and never seen in for a while.
Now it is glamoured onto my Zenith
Best of luck
