    New Primal Mounts Drop Rate

    So, I am up to 70 totems from Bismarck (a great way to track amount of runs btw!) and have seen the whistle twice

    I am wondering what other experiences everyone is having? Are you like me and still hitting your head against RNGesus in the hope that not only will a whistle drop, but that you will roll high enough for it?

    Or are you 'one of those' and saw the whistle your first try and got it! (I hate you if that is so... )

    **This is not a post asking for the drop rate to be increased, the patch only just came out and I don't want every man and his dog to have the mounts. You work hard for them which is what makes it special! Just interested in how we are all tracking so I know I am not alone!

    I was lucky to win my first roll on the bismarck bird, but that was about 27 runs before I saw the drop. I have completed my ravana weapon set on my journey to get his bird though.... XD Seen it drop twice and lost both rolls. All my luck went into the bubble bird. lel

    I wish you luck on your bird. The drop rate is pretty abysmal, but it seems to be better than old ponies at least. Still, when that drop rate buff happens, (when ever that may be) many peeps will be happy. XD

    IRL? What's that? Sounds dreadful!

    Ran Bismark a total of 38 times (counted the totems like you did xD) in one PF group and I think 3 dropped. I was able to win the lot on the second xD

    Ravana is next, but man..it's gonna take forever.

    Congrats those of you who won your rolls

    After today I'm at 90 totems, saw the whistle twice, but low rolls

    Hoping tomorrow has better RNG!

    I've ran Bismark 16 times through DF and a few through PF and seen it drop 3 times (seen all three yesterday actually), but lost all rolls. Maybe some day...

    Ravana will be harder. Don't have much experience with it yet to try farming. Thordan and Sephirot will be much harder as well. No experience with those.
