i got the chest piece after 2 empowered timelines, which is what is leading me to believe there is something wonky with the shard.
It definitely seems to be working correctly. I got the Fragments of the Shattered Lance after my 6th attempt which is in line with a 15% drop rate.
Are you doing anything wonky after you see the boss loot drop like quickly closing the game or exiting the client?
No, i check the loot that drops, i even started pressing X to disable the filter so it shows anything hidden, thats how much it is now bothering me.
Are you interacting with the blessing pop up and exiting through a green portal after the boss dies?
The chest has a 10% chance to drop (in addition to the sword/relic) in the empowered monolith.
Yes i am, i either stick with my current blessing or change it, depends what pops up.
Then when i have done this, checked the loot, pressed X to check any hidden loot, i open a portal and ext the timeline, and start again, 58 more times 
I am going to move this thread into Bug reports.
Please post your player.log
One would hope you’ve got the BiS blessing for whatever build you’re using at least…
Its just drop items from that timeline, so i just switch it up for fun most of the time.
Run 60, im done, something is broken. Hopefully its sorted by next patch, see you then.
Looking at your player.log I do not see anything odd.
I am also unable to reproduce this bug but I will log this issue internally and keep an eye on it.
66 runs later, nothing, something is not right.
I have validated my LE files through steam, ran without a loot filter, im sorry but a 15% chance drop, after 66 runs, should of dropped.

I agree with you. It should be dropping which I suspect is a bug. When I attempted to reproduce I was able to get the relic to drop on my 6th try so it appears not to be a global issue.
My suggestion is to switch to another character and see if it drops from them. This could confirm it’s related to your particular character.
Ok @KissingAiur 5 runs on my sorc on normal, the relic dropped.
So that was 71 runs in total.
66 on my paladin 10 on empowered 56 on normal, 5 runs on normal with my sorc. I dont know what you will get from this but there is the info for you.
Is your Paladin a character that you created at the beginning of 8.3? Or was this an older character that you hopped on to play for 8.3?
Paladin was a new character started at the beginning of 8.2 ?, the sorc is the very first character i created when i first bought the game in April 2020
Since you were able to get the item with another character it proves the problem lies strictly with your Paladin.
I suspect your toon has a broken quest state for Blood Frost and Death, which is very rare bug effecting older characters. With our current system if you do not complete the quest correctly it can hinder your rare boss specific item drops. Not getting this item to drop in 60+ runs is virtually impossible because it’s a 1/7 drop rate.
I’ll keep an eye on this bug.
Ah so you created this toon at the beginning of this new patch, yes I meant 8.2 I apologize. It can affect older characters but that doesn’t seem to be the case here. It still sounds like a quest state issue which is rare.
I wouldn’t worry about it since it isn’t affecting your other toons. It seems specific to your paladin and that particular non-empowered monolith.
I am closing the topic for now since there is nothing more we can do.
Thanks for the report.
