Same, lots of rolls and none... on the other hand, seeing the rewards I'm interested in, beside the key and some eternal pots, all the rest I can get it with I to VIII cards.

I'm at > 250 cards total.  I have only seen a single 9 and no 10's (THANK YOU, REST!).

I want a huge collectable bag and I want a FoM pot, so I definitely want me a few of them 9's and 10's.  I'd also like an Otto's Box and I saw more than a few people trading them for 9's and 10's.

None for me, either - but then again I've had horrible loot-luck since day one. Smiley

Yep, same here.
Rolling + sending daily on 5 servers.
1 main +5 accounts daily + ~10 cards from other people on main server.
No 9 or 10 so far.

I'd like one Augment bag for the high level ones I'm storing on my crafting toon.

And another big collectable and ingredient bag is always useful.

The FOM potion would be nice, but the odds of me getting 2 9s and 1 10 look pretty low.

Looks like Card II is the "bottleneck" for the better stuff (Bells of Opening, Major Slayer Pots, Sovereign elixir).

I am pulling in 30 cards per day, plus 180 on day one.  Only pulled 1x card 10.  Zero card 9.  Drop rates lower than shards.

The good news is some people are much more "lucky" than me and 9's and 10's can be had on Sarlona for 500K plat ±

I'm on ~450 cards now and have pulled a single 10, no 9s. 

The trick is definitely to find someone 'lucky' or who 'traded on other servers' such that they have a surprisingly large number of the rare cards.

I can't fit all my collectables in my Large red bag, so I wants me a Huge one for my bag character.

That is 30 accounts.  Because 180 on day 1 / 7 cards for VIP is not 30.  But 180 / 6 cards for F2P = 30 accounts.

That has to take you around 2 hours to login per server.  I bet if you logged in on each server you would see more Xs and IXs.  After all, it is about VOLUME for this event not luck.


I will agree that card IX is 1 in 500 and card X is 1 in 1000.

Compared to you all then I have been lucky.  I have pulled three IXs and two Xs.  And I thought my luck was crap after reading some of the stuff on the DDO forums and how much some of those posters claim to have.

Yup, 30 FTP accounts.  All user names one number off with the same password.  Takes about 40 minutes to roll and mail each account.

On my main account I managed to get through a full rotation of characters about 3.5 times getting two cards each time, and the same on a few mule accounts for about 238 cards, plus about 20 or so more since those first days.

So call it roughly 250 cards and I got 2 X's.  No 9's, and a lot of the others.
I traded a fair amount of EE Gianthold stuff I had sitting around for characters that are never likely to get played again and got what I needed from there.  Oddly, as time passed I was able to trade stacks of cards for EE GH gear.  And then, suddenly, no one was trading at all anymore.  Weird.

Over 500 rolls and no 9 or 10's.

Quicker just to buy one of the duped ones.  Shop around - prices can be extortionate.
Wish I could have got my hands on them before the duping got closed though.

What I am noticing is an aberration in the randomness of the cards generated.  On VIP's you get two cards and I am seeing pairs drop far more often than they should statistically.
On an admittedly small sample set, it looks like the second card result is being influenced by the first....

Anyone else observing this trend?
