Hiya,

I want to know if anyone else has noticed an increased rate of Talon Dagger drops.

A week or so ago, two friends and I were playing around in DoA. We were all getting a lot of Talon Daggers dropping, so many that we started to joke about it. It was my first time playing in there, so I didn't think much of it.

Since then, I've been playing all over the place but mostly in GWEN maps. I vanquished all the maps and have done a couple HM dungeons. I'm still seeing a lot of Talon Daggers dropping in various zones with inscribable drops, everything from white to gold rarity.

I've never been a serious farmer, but I have Leg. Vanq/Guardian. I'd been through NM GWEN before. Up until a week or so ago, I never saw them drop so frequently.

Has anyone else noticed this skin dropping more often? Obviously they're not dropping in places like Tyria, but I'm wondering if someone at ANet intentionally or unintentionally changed their drop rates.

Have you noticed more Talon Dagger drops in the past couple weeks?

Thanks & Cheers,
Luny

Been doing a lot of raptor farming recently, did not notice increase of that type of daggers in taht area....although I do get a lot of daggers, maybe b/c the raptors are sins? Can't speak for other areas though only HM Riven Earth :P

I thought they always dropped a lot. I've gotten many req 9's. So much so, I merch them because the price isn't worth the time it takes to sell.

It's not that I ever thought they were rare. It just seems like they're suddenly dropping more often, both for me and teammates. I wondered if anyone else had noticed this.
