Over 240 maps and no blue bird.

[XenoSamurai]

I have gotten a Peistskin map every single day since 2.1 for a total of 244 maps not including over 20 maps a fiend gave me and I didn't get a blue bird in any of them, while a friend of mine gets his blue bird the day 2.1 came out and he gets a second one later. I feel like the blue birds drop rate should be increased at this point because it is several months old, I am not willing to pay 2 million gil for a minion /rant off.

Same, also like 500 brayflox runs without an opo opo.

If you already had a bluebird, the retroactive luck would get you a bluebird.

Uhm I think you spent more on maps than the price of the bird itself... Take it as a sign and buy it directly?

Over 100 maps and still no Blue Fox Hide either...

I hate rare materials in treasure chests. Why can't they give us at least a grindy alternative to get them? ...and no. buying them from AH doesn't count since SOMEONE still had to get the thing in the first place.

It's very very likely that someone in your server already exploited this but, just case, desynthesizing sheep rug has a chance to give (two?) blue fox hides, but they (used to) sell for less than one hide.

Why assume he bought the maps?
By now it's very possible to have gathered that many peisteskin maps on his own.

I got my own Bluebird only a few weeks ago after having done not only my own maps pretty much every day since 2.1 arrived.

True, but even if you gather the maps yourself it's still a money loss.

OP never mentioned buying the maps - they may have farmed a map every day? - That's the feeling I'm getting anyway.

I did not spend a single gil on a map. I farmed every single one, once a day every single day since 2.1.

And at the current price of peistskin maps, I farmed a total of 5 million gil worth in maps, but like I said I am Not willing to spend 2million+ on one minion. I did make a lot of gil from all those maps still.
