Question about Harbinger Eye Drop

Hey

Im at a loss here and need help.

I try to farm Abarroth and thus Harbinger Eye.
Its…not working though.

After completion of the Quests for the 10 free ones the droprate is Abysmally low and im wondering if i am doing something wrong somewhere.

I am farming Harkon right now at 448 Corruption with Harbingers Crest active (So always Boss+harbinger) and i now have about 50 Needles and only 6 eyes.
This seems extremly low for me i got to be honest.

Is there something im doing wrong or is there a better farm for these?

Seems like bad RNG. The chances for an eye to drop range from 25% to 75% based on corruption. So I would guess you should have way more on average. So it seems like you’re just terribly unlucky.

As a sidenote, and on the flip side of your issue, I’ve killed dozens of harbingers and never had a needle drop, so… :man_shrugging:

I would believe that after 10 or 20. Not 50.

Cant be like that, there has to be something wrong.

Needles have a smaller chance to drop. I’m assuming you killed about 100 harbingers so far to get 50 needles. You should have way more eyes than needles. But RNG is a fickle mistress :stuck_out_tongue:

It’s possible some dropped and I didn’t notice, but not too likely, tbh. It’s just bad luck.

That and the inability to craft because of Havoc Scarcity makes me really want to stop playing.

A relatively surefire way is to use envy to increasy stability to then kill bosses back to back. That alleviates the scarcity.

Also keeping in mind… abby is supposed to be a hard end-game boss, hence access needs to be limited. The problem is that we don’t have anything else to work towards currently, with woven echos being a pure RNG gating (as if we didn’t have enough of that yet) and hence not aiding in alleviating that. It’ll get better with more content over time though for sure.

if that only would be true…

I farmed (tried at least) Eye’s since yesterday. First time I made it through to aberroth with homebrew build. I needed 5 Eyes to get every ability he uses and still lost, due to personal faults. Now all my tries are gone. I can afk farm Arenas in ~400 corr…

I got a new stashtab full of needles. and 1 Eye -.-

this is a joke! I played Horizon after horizon and didnt get Eyes out of it…with 25% it should be 2 per horizon run…ok, RNG is a bitch…happens 1 or 2 times to go empty handed… but by now im about 10 runs and still 1 single FU**ING EYE

Where is this info from ?

LETools, but they’ve since changed it because I can’t find it now (although there are still references to this on reddit, so I didn’t imagine it :laughing:).
So maybe the chance got changed in the game as well and that’s why the OP is having such issues?

75% at 600 corruption to be more specific, I can’t bother finding the info but it was confirmed somewhere a long long time ago.

We don’t know if the drop chances got chance in the meantime but I highly doubt it and from my personal experience in 1.2 those chances still hold up.
