I too can confirm that I get a TON of bom bokos and stuffed alphas (way more the former than the latter).
I got my retainers to level 90, but they were still wearing ilev 500 blue scrip gear. And suddenly they started coming back with 1 elemental shard. Water, Ice, or Earth. That never used to happen to me. I crafted up a set of gear, increased both of their gathering stats by like 800 each, and they're still bringing back 1 shard (though less often).
It's...very strange and I wish we could know more about what this Quick Venture table looks like and how it works. I also wish that scrip gear was not unique so that I dont have to GIVE a retainer my stuff, THEN go buy a replacement for myself.

I have 5 retainers. I get tons of Bom Bokos and haven't gotten a single minion since EW and only 3 non bom boko decos. Gettting quite a few Exarchic pieces too but they are now pretty worthless.
Ok, so it's not just me... this is a thing apparently. I thought my game was broken and was about to put in a ticket wondering why I was getting so many of these lately.
Of course, I'm sure the answer from SE would have been: "it's working as intended".

Absolutely, when the servers will be back online I will be posting a notice to our fc to avoid dropping the Bom Boko deco in the FC chest tab that is accessible to anyone. The principle of such fc chest tab was that “one man's trash is another man's treasure” but now it’s more like it’s everyone’s trash.

My poor partner has been attempting to get a fat cat minion for over a year now, so I am assuming just bad luck rng. The rng will give you nothing sometimes, but than give you thousands. If they keep at it at some point I feel they will get at least 10 fat cat minions within the span of two weeks at some point. At some point OP should, theoretically, randomly will get extremely lucking and get a ton. Though I suppose it depends on your luck, but even with my bad luck the extreme trials mounts always steak positive at one point or another. Some days you may be more luck than other days. I even crafted nothing but high quality everything when using Quick Synthesis. Of course it was when I wished to sell the normal quality items, which was pretty ironic.
Healing DRK is literally... the same since ShB. The reason why people think it's a meme to heal nowadays because DRK receives very little to no buff to their sustainability vs 3 other tanks getting something useful. If you're capable of healing DRK back in ShB (or any tanks), then you'll heal EW DRK just fine.

All since release of EW. Actually, as mentioned before, I had more but sold a few of the first ones.

I haven't gotten a dye yet this expansion either, and I check my retainers a few times a day ( 4 retainers ).. but boy do I have TONS of bom boko to throw out.
