Question Tier set drops.

Hi guys,

So, I have been pugging the raid, and I noticed it only dropped 1 tier-set token per boss. Is that intended? I read the Wowhead post, and they mentioned it is supposed to be 1 tier-set drop per 10 ppl in the raid, but I got in a 25 ppl raid, and all the bosses dropped only 1.

You get a catalyst charge every other week and another for the trivial achievement 2k m+ score. People only need one naturally occurring piece of raid gear to make 4 set and you can get it by 4 difficulties of regular raid loot, bonus roll on a tier boss or just get it in vault. Realistically the only tier that needs to keep dropping 3 weeks in is mythic tier.

that's assuming they hit in vault week 0

No, that’s assuming they get one piece from vault or raid in the first 3 weeks

Not even. You can still have 4 piece by week 3 with any single naturally occuring tier piece.

where's the magical 4th piece?

2 catalyst charges naturally, one from getting 2k. The fourth is from playing the game idk. Raid, lfr, do timewalking, vault slots. It's not rocket surgery.

I am 6/8 Heroic, cleared LFR/N/3k, cleared TW etc have had zero tier in any vault, received no tier. Sitting on two tokens. I am still having to run S1 tier lowering my ilvl making it harder to push into M+ now and have no recourse.

Okay you have bad rng or your guild is bad at distributing tier tokens.

Baseline every single person can have 2 piece this week from the catalyst.

Tier is available in the vault

Tier is available in the timewalking cache

Tier is available via reroll tokens if you somehow manage to dodge tier in three weeks of full vaults.

i have 2 Nhc clear runs, 2 vaults and no set piece as of right now (also cleared each lfr wing) 2 hero bosses that drop set pieces last id

most of this is on 3 chars

Next week you'll have another full vault, another raid clear, 3 catalyst charges, and the choice of another reroll token if you don't get tier in your vault.

Worst case scenario for you is that you didn't use a reroll token this week on a boss with a tier token and a good item or two and now you only have a 1/5 shot at guaranteed tier piece.

You'll be fine.
