Took me maybe fifty tries in Copperbell HM to get the blood to drop on that.
Sounds like RNG just hates you, unfortunately.

I've finished 3 zodiacs, one within the past week. This item does drop, though it may take a lot of runs.

^ I can agree 100%. Just got my 2nd Zodiac today and it can be rough, but it does drop.

Hi, this is my first Zodiac quests, I've started doing this 4 quests chain for Zodiac for about 34 or 35 days (Just back from hiatus on February), other 3 done and this Method of His Malice is the last one. Just because it drops for you doesn't mean it would for others. So far I could only droll at Jealousy looking at the "Zodiac Treasure Drop Rate" discussions on reddit seeing people get Hullbreaker at 1/1, 1/4, 1/28 or such.

Now let's back to the bug report,
- it is not a bug if the item drops
- it is a bug if the item never drops

The nature of RNG, making it possible for item to drop on 1st run, as well as making it possible for the item to drop on the 100000000(insert large number here)th run. A number of runs which is impossible to achieve during a man's life time, thus on this case the item become never drop.

Therefore, it might be dropping for you (not bugged), but there is also a possibility where it never drop (bugged). And this is what im reporting. The item is not dropping, for me.

I personally think, RNG itself is a bug. RNG allows a scenario to be impossible to achieve, it might... be possible to achieve.... if you are a machine. but human isn't machine. Never underestimate the RNG on unlucky people.

^Rofl Just because its not dropping for you does not mean that it is a bug.

You just so happen to have bad luck and it is what it is. Also, just because me and the person above my first post have multiple zodiacs, does not mean we got all of out drops 1/1 or even 1/4. I personally ran WP 26 times this last time around to get the drop from that dungeon.

Hi,

1. Not bug: the item actually drops
2. Is a bug: the item never drop

it might not be bugged for you, but it's number two so far on me.

It doesn't work like that. It isn't a black-and-white, either-or situation. There could also be no bug and no drop.

You're throwing round the term "bugged" which insinuates that the game is in some way not functioning properly or there is a programming error causing it to be impossible for you to obtain the item.

That's not the case.

You are having terrible luck with RNG and not seeing a drop. It's unfortunate, but just because it is happening to you it doesn't mean the game is broken.

It is impossible to obtain the item given that someone have a very bad luck, like no matter how much runs, it just doesnt drop. (bugged)
Or, it is possible to obtain the item given that someone run a lot of runs. (not bugged)

The game is not broken for you, only on me or people with bad RNG luck.

I'm posting this just to soothe my sadness, hoping someday this thread will come into the dev's team.
