    That's because the drop rates for OK and PoD have both been vastly raised recently, whereas Void Ark is current content. Don't expect drop rates there to be nerfed for some time yet.

    It was that way before they buffed the drop rate. Onion knight and PoD would appear with high frequency. SeverCollaps is right, both of those minions felt like they had about a 1/3 chance to appear at the end of the run during ARR.

    Wind up Echidna has appeared 0/20ish runs for me.

    Chiming in to add to reports.

    It took me about 48 runs until I saw a Wind-up Echidna drop (Rolled a 9 on it too, ouch). I can also confirm that you do roll against 24 people for the drop. I would assume it's the same for the coffin lid?
    I'm currently at about 109 some runs now and I have still yet to see the coffin lid even drop. I do feel the drop rate needs to be increased somewhat, especially due to the even lower odds of actually winning the thing.

    Isn't the drop rate at like 2% or something ridiculous?

    Even at 2% you'd expect at least one to have been on the marketboard, but...

    There are a lot of people who normally are at odds all agreeing in this post.

    SE!! make the drop % something reasonable like 15% for the lid and 25% for the minion.

    I thought the lid had to be pretty goddamn rare considering I am getting on average about 30 tells a day from randomers just asking me if I can sell the lid/coffin to them, after they found my name on the MB. But at least the item exists. I've ran VA personally only about 6 times and not seen any of these drops - and haven't heard of anyone seeing the lid, and the minion only once. Wouldn't mind it if they got a buff in drop rates.
