Malediktus.9250 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Given the rarity I think the "Endless Djinn Tonic" should be tradeable on the trading post, so people who do not want it can sell it to people who actually want it. I think it is currently the only very rare drop that cannot be sold to other players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done the event 3 times, with participation at (approximately) 10, 25, and 40 people (I wasn't in the squad, so not relying on count from that). Let's say that "a lot of times" means ten times (less than a dozen) and that the average participation was 40 people (double what I've experienced). If the true drop rate is 1:200, then there's a 13% chance that you wouldn't have heard about one dropping.Stats aside, if the true rate is as generous as 1:1000, it's going to mean that tons of people end up with the tonic, given how many people play the game.Regardless, I don't think it matters whether the tonic is super rare or incredibly rare. It's clearly not a common drop. And, as I said above, ANet needs to choose one method of exclusivity: low rates or account binding — using both on the same item is an incredibly easy way to frustrate the community, rather than a good way to make loot more exciting.

leon.5364 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 the thing is need to fix is upgrade the time transformation 3 minute is too short for a endless tonic you are agreed with that..the time must we have is like 10 or 15 minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eloc Freidon.5692 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 When I first did this event on day one, I thought we had to farm the consume potions to make into an endless one similar to how previous chapters we had to buy 50 of an item and Mystic Forge them to an endless. Finding out it was a drop, I knew this would be a hell of a grind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yes, it is quite possible that it would be slightly better or much worse. Collecting enough data will be hard as long as there is no tonic API (which might never come since there isnt even a mount API one year after PoF) so gw2efficiency can make stats for it.@leon.5364 said:the thing is need to fix is upgrade the time transformation 3 minute is too short for a endless tonic you are agreed with that..the time must we have is like 10 or 15 minute.I agree, there is no reason for it to be only 3 minutes, even for the one time consumables Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leon.5364 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 and i hope arenanet will hear that because i really want the endless djinn tonic have a better time transformation them 3 minute.i mean by that you farm like a beast this event over and over again at the end you got him and the sad annoying thing you realise is just 3 minute time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead, keep it really simple: regardless of the specific drop rate, if it's rare, it shouldn't be bound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowzerk.4715 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 I hate WoW, because everything is Soulbound or Account bound........ I really wish ANet would allowed everything to be tradeable ...... again...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 I agree with this - rare, random drops shouldn't be account bound on acquire.It's annoying if you want it and can't get it, but even more annoying if you get one you don't want. There are few things as frustrating in GW2 as having an item you don't want and you know someone else would love to have but being unable to give it to them. It just feels like such a waste to have a really cool item stuck on your account where it's going to go largely unused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leon.5364 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 is really need be more transformation time for a such rare thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Snakes.8193 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 I've been doing the vent multiple times a day across my charecters, I think I have something like 50 normal Djinn tonics now. It really should be tradable, or use a mystic forge recipe that includes the normal djinn tonics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashantara.8731 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 I would be content with being able to craft it from the normal version of the tonic, but so far I couldn't find any information on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mystic forge does not accept the basic version, so there is no recipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't have to be easy, but I'd prefer something a little less disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you can do the event a bunch of times and slowly acquire enough tonics to make the endless version. It would remain account bound so it wouldn't be "easy to get".
