The drop rate or the quantity for each drop needs to be revisited for the coins and hands. Its gonna take months to just to purchase everything from one shrine let alone all 3.
Idk about the coins and eyes but u do get 27 hands with a finger on invasions and 9 is still not terrible if u do quick matches and get wins but to me it would be boring if all the rewards were done immediately, no more purpose then besides I guess if u want a chunk or a respec
Important Note: You do not need any of the "Online Store Armors" to get the platinum, or 100% Achievements. Get them only if you want to have everything, but do not farm these for trophies/achievements. If you think you have all the armors in the game and still no Armor achievement/trophy has popped, make sure to double check, because there's similar items with same name but slightly different. For example, my last piece i needed was "Shuja Strider arm Wrappings", i mistaken them for "Shuja Warrior Arm Wrappings", and i thought i had them all, until i doubled checked my armors. Hope that helps.
@@Lordchar1892Yeah, same! I started farming these for a little bit, until i seen PowerPyx trophy guide, and he mentioned those wasn't required after a certain patch. Trophy descriptions can be a bit misleading at times.
Omg. I thought the same ,that for all armor trophy I had to buy the ones in online stores . So I’ll stop this farm right now . Just go for the other stuff .
Yeah I noticed his drop rate was pretty minimal, even with all that discovery items slotted in taking up valuable space you'd otherwise have preferred to slot in other things.
They probably didn't figure on the decline in player base, so the prices for the items were never going to be adjusted. Also "paywalling" armor sets behind a specific currency was just a dumb thing to do, when they could have done quests for the armor sets. That being said, thank you for the video. Now watch the devs go in and nerf the drop rate even more.
Yea I don’t know why they are being so stubborn about the price for the armor sets. When fighting cowboy did the interview with the director he brought it up how it was a concern but they basically dismissed him. But on the other hand they have walked back everything that they said during the interview Original the new armor sets we just got where going to go to the covenants so I’m think they are going to reduce those prices. I don’t think they will nerf the drop rate because it so low even with my stupid setup and a 600% increase i only got 2 eyes that run
To be fair, Dark Souls 1 & 2 kinda had it via the dragon cult, to unlock the dragon forms... It required PvP, but at least you needed 30 maches won. Not 2000. Which is why I don't understand either what they were thinking... Early on it made kind of sence, because there was many people playing, but now this is just absurd. And the fact that I consult vidéos 10 months old prove even further how this game is abandoned
by this drop rate its faster to make new character, low twink do all the coins as low level for faster co-op, although pvp is constant past 140+ i got over 150 hands from invaders with that 3 shot dumb crossbow explosive bolts :) they always die instantly, ty for the video
Ugh... Recently got this game and am just about 75 in each stat and I really wanna get all the faction armor/shaders for the completionist in me. However... the prospect of being forced to do PvP against mostly Pieta sword users or crossbow boom boom setups doesn't sound fun, but then again only getting a few severed hands from Ruiners or Skinstealers isn't fun either.
Yea it’s sucks ass the only thing I can recommend is to be chessey in pvp with the fingers to get 27 hands per kill and use everything op. The game dosent have a stablished pvp scene so I don’t think it the long run it matters if I cheese it with the poeta spells and crossbow
this is kinda sad reminds me of the ear farm for the blades of the darkmoon, the easier one is the eyes but for the most part the online is dead. i think an easy way to fix this is just increase the drop rate in elites and also normal enemies have a chance, also for bosses make it a guaranteed.
thanks for the video!!! looks like you have two crafter essence equiped on the hammers?? because your equip load is at medium even witho two of those heavy hammers , how tf your equip load is so low even without the equip load ring equiped??
Bro how did you get 2 of those umbral eyes of ethryg? Im in new game 5, and ive done byrons quest 3 times but he wont give me a 2nd one. I thought about putting my current one in the safe next time when i finish his quest, to see if that works. Same with the crafters essence rune from the blacksmith, i tried to get a 2nd. It didnt drop, but then later i had 1 on 2 weapons , then i removed one and im back to 1. I think it was a glitch. Typical for this game.
You should have been able to get duplicates on successive NG+ runs, even NG+0. Regarding the Crafter's Essence you should have gotten that too. Keep in mind though to equip that rune can only be slotted in in Radiance weapons (weapons that have Radiance requirement) thereby having Radiance slots or Meta slots. Otherwise when you click on a different rune slot you would not see it as one of the available for slotting. Another thing I noticed with the Crafter's Essence rune is if you only have one and already have it slotted in a weapon but you want to slot it in a different weapon, if you don't first remove it from the weapon it already is in you would not see it available in the runes window for slotting in the other weapon. You have to first remove it from the weapon it is in, then it would appear available.
Soooo... Either invade one-shot crossbow cheesers, or farm for weeks to get about the same result? Yeah I think I'm gonna wait for the Devs to figure out this mess
@@Lordchar1892 Exactomundo. I WANT to platinum this game, but it's like the Devs don't want me to. And at one point it'll wear out the players so much that they'll simply move on. I'm still sitting on a few more playthroughs for some Npc quest lines, but after that? I'm not grinding for weeks on end, just for 1 armor set, while there are completely new/other games I could play/complete in the same amount of time
@@Lordchar1892 I platinumed the Game btw, they seem to have either fixed it if it's was bugged, or changed the criteria, but I got to have my Platinum without the Vanity Vendor stuff
@@Rodrianius yea they might have remove removed that requirement or it was never required just bad text on the achievement I’v keptup with all all the patch notes they never anything
I feel like I'm the only person who plays this game that's not a cheater literally everybody is level like 999 and has 75 of each ring between their fingers and toes and every single weapon and boss weapon in the game at level 10
As a non cheater who only has access to you know normal things that a regular player would I feel like farming for things is useless as far as this goes I farmed for weeks countless hours spent and by the end of it I've only have 114 eyeballs I have four of those hands I think three or four pilfered coins and yeah it's pretty stupid
I total agree man i can only get about 100 eyes per playthrough there’s not enough lamps in the game like the devs think for those sets mabey they need community pressure to adjust those prices to be more realistic
I'd been playing LOTF for quite a long time, every day 5-7 hours, ever since release because I really enjoy it and got hooked. Only recently just before Christmas I took a break to go play the new DLC recently released for God of War Ragnarok....Valhalla, which I'd been doing daily since. I was think of coming back to LOTF to do the new armour quests and now these new offerings for the Pilfered Coins, Severed Hands etc. But the drop rate from experience is so piss poor I think I'll stay with GoW Ragnarok Valhalla for a while again before I return to do these new quests etc in LOTF. It's a great game IMO but the drop rate for these things are really frustrating.

Yea it’s brutal out there it’s faster to pvp at the moment I do hope they adjust it tho
Yeah. The drop rate across the board is piss poor. It makes farming these things most times way too frustrating.
@davidtsmith33 agreed. And to think I thought Nioh 2 drop rates were terrible.

Cool thnx for the info I don’t think many people new that most of us assumed when it said all armor it meant all
@@Lordchar1892Yeah, same! I started farming these for a little bit, until i seen PowerPyx trophy guide, and he mentioned those wasn't required after a certain patch. Trophy descriptions can be a bit misleading at times.
Holy moly thank god. Was trying to farm those for about an hour and just saw your comment. You my guy, saved me A LOT of time!
For one trophy game is important.you have to give 10 hand for trophy
Omg. I thought the same ,that for all armor trophy I had to buy the ones in online stores . So I’ll stop this farm right now . Just go for the other stuff .
for having an almost 600% item drop rate you got very little currency's think devs set the drop rate to low
The drop rate sucks I fillies my inventory and had to dump it from the normal items I collected during the farm
Screw the drop rate, the amount needed for an armor set is absurd, not gonna spend 3 to 4 days farming to get one piece of armor.
Yeah I noticed his drop rate was pretty minimal, even with all that discovery items slotted in taking up valuable space you'd otherwise have preferred to slot in other things.

I farm at The Empyrean Vestiges for the large deralium shards, best spot to farm it
That is 100 % the best spot

Lol
Danke danke danke das war genau das wissen was mir fehlte
Es freut mich, dass ich Ihnen helfen konnte
Happy to help
( Google translate sorry if it’s weird translation)
Hopefully they hugely boost the drop rates, with all that boosting there's no reason it should still be so rare especially for just 1 or 2 at a time
If enough people complain they will have to fix it, it’s way to low
Ugh... Recently got this game and am just about 75 in each stat and I really wanna get all the faction armor/shaders for the completionist in me.

Hope the devs see this video to show how ridiculous the drop rate is. I only have 1 of each of those items so my drop rate ban be abysmal
If everyone bands together then they will have to change it
Could wear the Pumpskin helmet for more drop rate and a shield with all three agility runes that increase drop rates.
The ultimate drop rate build now that’s an idea
So I did that and item discovery went up to 6.76 but didn’t help with the hands lol still very cursed thanks for the info though
thanks for the video!!! looks like you have two crafter essence equiped on the hammers?? because your equip load is at medium even witho two of those heavy hammers , how tf your equip load is so low even without the equip load ring equiped??
U got it man 2 crafter essence
Thank you
Any have there plucked eyes just disappear? I can't find anything in the topic or do they expire.
It might be a bug try reporting it in the LOFT discord and tag a dev
Bro how did you get 2 of those umbral eyes of ethryg? Im in new game 5, and ive done byrons quest 3 times but he wont give me a 2nd one.

Also you run the same umbral setup as i do
Dam idk why but nothing is locked for only 1 drop might just be a bug tho
You should have been able to get duplicates on successive NG+ runs, even NG+0.

Thx a lot :>
Any time
Are the drop rates better in New Game Plus?
Naw man that gameplay is from new game plus 1 and no change in drop rate
Can't use these anyways if you don't have a subscription and play offline like me. So why would you want to farm these offline?
Oh didn’t know that was a thing figured maybe u couldn’t match make but not allowing access to the shrine seams a little to much on their part
Drop rate is too low, farming is too long and the cost is too high. That's the problem '
Soooo... Either invade one-shot crossbow cheesers, or farm for weeks to get about the same result?
Yeah I think I'm gonna wait for the Devs to figure out this mess
Yup I hate that the armor is tied to achievements I can’t 100% cuz shits dumb

Yeah drop rates are trash but you knew that
I knew they would low but when your at 600% I thought it would be a little better than 2 eyes for 5 minutes
only 1 hand man u gana need to farm forever just PVP
Yea probably a better solution
And what of the coins? It's impossible to farm them doing coop because literally no one coops. at least not in my region 😢
@@MrChach1ng yea that sucks for sure we need to pressure the devs to increase these drop rates
