    Eurekan Petrel

    I'm assuming I have bad rng, but just incase there's some sort of bug where it's hidden unique tagged can anyone confirm if you can farm multiples of these? I thought I'd farm a few for FC events, but I'm closing in on 300 fates and about 40+ gold coffers without seeing one, while Eldthurs are a fairly steady rate and drop fine.

    I own and learned the Petrel mount already and never seen one drop since then, so just curious if anyone else who owns one has farmed multiple.

    Another 10 golds down, 2 more Penthilisea's spears (7th spear now) and a bunch more logos. I'm just filling in spare time doing other stuff while half afk and still suspect it's poor rng, but there is some possibility it's bugged recently. If anyone's farming extra of this one I'd be wary and stick to Eldthurs until someone can confirm a recent drop.

    Laughs in not even having gold chests.

    I do Eureka since release and have done hundreds of Bunny fates.
    I probably can count the amount of Gold chests I got with my hands.

    Sometimes I want to farm them for a day or two but I then enter Pyros and see bots running around. I don't want to play with bots so I stop it after 1-2.

    There's far less lately, but there are 2 who are 100% definitely bots and have been there for months despite numerous reports. I don't get why GM's won't touch them.

    Gold Chests feel like 1 in 10 in my experience. Same as 10% materia melds, sometimes you go 50 attempts to get one success, sometimes you land 2 in a row first try.
