Increased mystery chest cost to 250 cinders. Reduced drop rate by 60-70%. Bug fix is being patched but they didn’t specify which part, the cost or the drop rate or both
I would imagine the drop rate since the cost was actually in the patch notes.

Good, because Helltide ended as a viable thing to do the second the cost went up and the drop rate got crushed. Hopefully it’s somewhat viable still.
Does that hotfix already live?

It was so weird when I was playing last night. Went through 3 battles with 0 drops and then like 7 or 8 dropped all at once on the next one. And hitting random barrels sometimes yielded 2 or 3.
I thought maybe doing an event might get more drops but no, not really. It just got me killed. :P I did better just roaming the countryside. By the end, I began wondering if the drop rate depended on the type of monster? I felt like I was doing better with spawning types like shamans and worse with ghosts? But who knows? I guess if it’s a bug, it’s all moot at this point.
