The $#!% is going on with the drops?


Recommended Posts

On the public servers, I haven't seen a SINGLE other person get a "normal" drop since the event started. 
Since the event began, every single other person just gets Winter's Feast Chests and Elegants. Meanwhile, the last 6 drops I've gotten have been THIS garbage:

It is absolutely no exaggeration when I say that the last 15 drops in a row that I saw people get on a Public Server were ALL Winter's Feast Chests. 

So what the Hell is going on? The event page said drop rates for Winter's Feast collection clothes and Elegants had gone way up.
I haven't gotten a single one of those things. I haven't even gotten ONE chest yet. 
Either the drop rates haven't actually been improved at all, or the game is purposefully avoiding giving me anything worth the time of day. 

Yeah no, it just sounds like you have s**t luck. While the chances have indeed gone up, it is still possible that you don't get any in a freak probable nightmare. Sometimes the universe just decides to give you bad rolls after another, and it can't be helped. Though I wouldn't worry to much as there is still ~50 gifts left, so it is bound to happen eventually.

being mad for free stuff

It's the uneven distribution of it. EVERYONE is getting the free stuff. It's just that everyone else is getting treasure and beautiful dresses, and I get another 2 pairs of gloves to add to my god-damned gigantic pile of Gloves.

At least there's a possibility, although I'm not going to hold my breath. 
Chances are this event will come and go with me having gained absolutely nothing of value or interest, like everything else in my life.

If it means anything to you I’ve gotten 3 Winters Feast chests, and they all contained profile icons for things like Christmas ornaments. (Aka not very good drops either, I would prefer your gloves and shoes honestly..)

BUT the good news is you can take them all and trade them in at the trade inn for a guaranteed higher tier item drop there. Or unravel for spools And that’s what I plan to do with my 15+ Christmas icons I have no use for.

Keep trying you’ll get something worthwhile soon ;)

oof.that sucks but winters feast isn't about the elegants that you get.its about spending time with your friends and family on DST.

 

You're just unlucky, and you're making a mountain out of a molehill of it. Don't be comparing your life to these drops either, you're probably doing fine (Despite what you think) or are living a fairly decent life and you're taking it for granted or believing that your life sucks when it doesn't.

It indeed can be, but I'm making an assumption that's based off of my own experiences which aren't fact. More a guess.

The Trade Inn doesn't allow me to use profile icons or items from special sets (I cannot Trade Inn my extra pieces of Willow's Gorge outfit, for example). 
What have you done to achieve this?

I'm just aware of how life works; there is vastly more negatives than positives and the odds are very good that I'm not going to get anything worthwhile from this event. Especially if my record with the last couple of days is any indication.

well winters feast hasn't been on for very long.you still have a while so you'll most probably get something before the event ends 

hope you have a wonderful day or night wherever you are in the world

And you'd be right, they're many more negatives than positives in life. But as @stranger again said. You still have quite a bit of time. So you'll probably get something good out of it eventually. It just takes time.

Surprisingly, this post has more sympathy than negativity in it. 
I was expecting to get lambasted with hatred and insults for being petty, or something or other. 

It only happens when the person is actively toxic, someone flame baits it, or everyone starts cutting the corners and shooting through the bush.

Edit: Heck, my first Winter's feast (Last year) comprised of profile icons and knee pants.

Nah I meant you can trade in your common gloves and shoes for a better tier item in the trade inn- Just throw 9 items that can be thrown in over into it and your guaranteed something of at least one value higher- but during Winters Feast you have a higher chance to get better results.

Now is the best time to trade in your 2000 billion brown loafer collection :) 

In addition you can unravel the things the inn won’t accept, it may not net you many points but they add up eventually.. and maybe you can weave yourself something nice.

I've seen people be called toxic and get mobbed for simply being upset. I'm still surprised at the positivity here.

Well, that's why I said actively. I meant someone who's constantly relenting insults to people whether they were upset on not. 

Here maybe this will make you feel better :p

But I’m certainly not complaining.. Klei gave me #MadMoxxiTopHat, Wendy Lureplant outfit, AND the WintersFeast Lantern, And they also made the Creepy Cauldron available for purchase this year, which after waiting 2 years trying to luck up on I’m beyond thrilled to finally own.

This has been the best year ever in terms of skins for me <3 I couldn’t possibly ask for much more so I’m Okay with getting a bunch of Ornament filled WF chests.
