    Mount Drop Rate

    Hey, people. I'm not quite sure what the drop rate percentage is for Shinryu and Byakko extreme. I raidlead a mount farm group in my guild. Currently we have gone 15 hours or rougly 85 kills without a single mount drop. So I would like some clarity on the %droprate and if people are experiencing simular issues.

    personally I don't think you'll be seeing Shinryu doggo being purchasable until 4.4 and Byakko until 4.5 with totems. Byakko and Shinryu have their original drop rates still so prob less than 3%. Lak/Sus doggos prob drop rate of 5-7%?

    Just got to 99 Byakko totems.
    With a purchased weapon way back when, that's 109 runs!

    Not one drop I've ever seen.
    But thankfully this isn't like the horses of 2.0. You can eventually purchase them. It'd not a carrot on a stick.

    Personally I think the drop rates are fine.

    I've seen 9 dogs in 80 byakko kills, so I would guess its about 10%

    I've seen about five dogs in my runs through Byakko and got poor lots on all....so, I ended up farming 102 totems.

    All I can say is at least it's in the solid percentiles, most other games make most mounts drop at .5-.05% and this is fairly common throughout the genre of MMOs.

    Seen about 5-7 in 80 kills, so not bad, just wish we don't have to wait for the totem exchange until a later patch to purchase them. Just silly.

    I would imagine it's below 5%. I don't think what you're experiencing is an issue, however. It's probably just a case of bad luck. I've read that breaking mirrors typically has a negative impact on your real life luck stat, so if you have broken any mirrors in the recent past, I would advise you to say "Rabbit" when you wake up in the morning. I hear that's a thing in the UK. Don't do it if you're a ninja though.

    I have seen 3 dogs in 80 runs of byakko which is the next wolf I want. Haven't got a clear on shinryu so cant speak of that one. I am wanting to get at least 99 totems so I can exchange when available or farm more if I feel like it.

    It took me around 130 runs of Lakshmi for that wolf before it could be exchangable. I think less than 30 for Susano after the change to drop rate. It's just all rng. Some people are luckier than others.
