Bad Luck with weapons

[Red Nations]

I think they monkeyed around with the drop settings again, drops have been horrible and even the fishing is lousy. I was doing Ravens Cove quest tonight with my other 50 and after catching the 12 tuna I tried for the legendary fish. I'd never had much trouble with catching legendary fish once I learned the technique for landing them without losing them. Tonight after trying for them and even moving the boat to several different locations I didn't have even a single legendary fish show up. So gave up on the bonus fish and turned the quest list in.

Edward Edgemenace PM'd me regarding the lost servers during the Raven's Cove update, and he believes they may have taken away servers to reduce the amount of famed and legendary weapon finds. While I don't see the correlation between the two, I think it's quite clear something has changed.

I've heard many friends say they've been lucky to find one famed weapon a day. I've managed to find two in one day, but that's only after about 8-10 hours of play.

Of course I know people who are even luckier than before, but my luck went from 20 famed weapons from darkhart in 20 hours(over the course of a month or two) to two famed weapons in 10 hours. That's a big difference for me, but oh well.

I've had no luck whatsoever. I have the Seafang and Bitter End. And I spent 10+ hours today going after both Remington and Neben.

Disney definitely screwed around with something, that's for sure. I've never gotten a Loot Skull Chest from Raven's Cove. Any Loot Skull Chests I've gotten from Tormenta definitely didn't have a Rare weapon, either...

I've gotten around 10 skulls since the update, and that's a good 10 hours of playtime.

There's your problem. Cursed blades are ONLY from raven's cove and isla tormenta.

I was playing with my friend and she got 3 famed in 2 hours that night... Myabe you guys spent all your luck already?

[Sven Ironwalker]

I can be counted into the bad luck club... seems all I ever get is more shot for me weapons

[Captain Jason]

I got 2 famed weapons since the update came, not including bitter end. That's nearly double all I've ever gotten from loot drops that I got in just too days. I also just started going to tormenta and Raven'sCove mines for loot. You may wanna try it.

[Sven The Barren]

yeah really! i dont get many famed weapons, id just like ONE more Famed weapon! lol

[Roger Sharkshot]

In my whole pirating life 'ive only gotten 4 famed not inclding bitter end and they are two sword not even decent attacks and bushmasters pistol one barrel and a lucky charm treasure sense boost +2 wish that would help with loot drops

[Cannon Leader]

The irony is sometimes you work for hours on end only to come up empty handed, and other times it happens on a whim. I understand the 'bad luck' syndrome. However, in my own limited experience (Level 46, 10 famed weapons, 1 Legendary Lost Sword of El Patron), I have found the best 'luck' by changing bosses and even servers if after 15 minutes I'm not seeing any skull chests.

I noticed that the variety seems to bear fruit and when I find a boss that drops skull chests within short durations (Dark Hart seems to do this the most often for me), I will stick around for longer than 15 minutes. That was the strategy that got me the Lost Sword and several other famed weapons.

I wish I could say this was a fool proof method, but alas, I am a fool and if ye find me online, ye will have all the proof ye need mate.

I'm looking for famed weapons. Cursed blades do not account for all of them (I'm not even sure if they make up more than half). And yesterday I spent 7 hours going after ghosts and Jones' crew. Still nothing.

Tormenta all day and found nothing.
