Expanse Baleen, Synced or Unsynced?

[Niraye]

unsynced locks enemy loot that means if it goes straight to your inventory and technically it would be enemy loot even if bismark is a boss so no you would not get it from unsynced you have to do it synced. it even says what unsynced does when you go to set it up, that's why they fixed it for the realm bosses you couldn't get the loot at all.

I do not know about Expanse Baleen, but Hive Forewing does drop from Ravana unsynced straight into your inventory... it just has a horrible drop rate (twice in 131 runs for me). It would seem common sense that the same applies to the Expanse Baleen.

Been farming Ramuh EX unsynced quite a bit lately (I must have all of his weapons, you see) and his regular Levin Orb does indeed drop directly to someone while the Large appears in the box. We've gotten several, but it's pretty rare. We had this happen in Mog EX too because we were after the EX whisker for the mailbox and it refused to drop so we settled for the regular.

That seems odd. The lodestone page for the Ramuh trial shows that both the Levin Orb, and the Large Levin Orb, are loot from the treasure box.

Well I got one directly deposited to my inventory over a few runs and the reason I specifically remember is because I was putting the Large orbs on retainers (they're unique) and couldn't figure out how I had two orbs after one fight. It was because one dropped to me.

If we get the chance to run again, I'll screenshot it, but it won't be immediate.

EDIT
Clarity, I typed "two" twice...

I meant it as, the Levin Orb shouldn't be limited to just direct drops, since it also shows up as being part of the treasure coffer's loot table, on the lodestone page.

From what I've been hearing, HW primal drops differently from ARR and SB primals. Which is unfortunate since the item I want comes from a HW primal.

It also doesn't help that then drop rates are abysmal...

How SE will fix this soon...
