Hopefully by then I will have enough completions of VoN56 to get the shard of SoS.


There is no guarantee to that.
I know people with 300+ runs without a shard.

Yeah I know that but with Vulkoor's favor I will get the shard on my 20th end reward! Grin

My real concern is actually getting the base item. Right now I have the sword, seal and scroll and I want the shard for an epic version and another base item for Tring purposes. Since all I'm doing right now is my ERs then my 20th will be an epic completion, thus I'll have a chance at the shard. For the base item I'll need a heroic completion and I'm not sure how I can get one unless I TR and stay at level 12 for eternity. Any suggestions?

Took me 1,5 years with 2 toon raiding every time i was off timer to get the shard on my name losing rolls from Sorcs Clerics and lately FvS because they needed it.

Once i got it on my main barb it dropped in 2 months on my other 4 toons...

Since then i am a loot whore unless a guildy or buddy needs something.

At this point thought they should drop the 4 piece epic crafting and throw them in the loot tables premade since 98% are twink items that will help you like what?the 1,5 hours it will take you to go from 20 to 24?

I can tell by your typing that you are an uneducated fuckwit.  This explains why you think books are bad.  I bet you think school is hard and you shouldn't have to repeat 7th grade again this year.

I'm probably out of the loop but the way I heard it if your 20th is an epic run you get a list of shards and if it's a heroic run you get a list of base items, at least in VoN5-6. I asked a few people during runs and they all said the same but I've yet to confirm it.

Epic 20th completions also give you base items.

Not for VoN 5/6. IIRC it is the case for Kween... because Desert....
VON 5/6 Epic just give you the standard list of base items.

If that's indeed the case then I should probably stop dreaming of having an Epic SoS.  Undecided

Well the 160KXP+++ from EE VON5/6 is a nice reward in itself... so it's not that painful to keep running it to get that elusive shard.

We did point the issue to Turbine when they told us about the Drop Rate changes included in U24... but they told us explicitly that Seals and Shards weren't on the plate for increased drop rate for the time being. Otherwise SoS Shard had the unanimity for a greater drop rate.

Because 99.5% of the SSS items are so useful now that people will pursue them.  And updating loot table probabilities is an enormous task likely to take a whole afternoon of not playing LARP Pacman.....

The xp is pretty nice and I'll probably want to join any VoN5/6 LFM I see, however, the 20th reward options can affect my decision to TR or continue with ERing. I'm pretty sick of my current toon and I'd like to TR her into something more useful/fun/powerful but I don't want to miss my 20th reward.

Same for me.. but this was some months ago, so haven't tested recently. I don't exactly run Chrono for the 20th reward, so was surprised to hit a 20.
