Champion's Relic never drop!!!

[RiverBummer]

I am level 71 and mostly Guardian Gear now. I just got my 6th champion relic plan (sold the excess one for a few coin - less than apprentice sword) but STILL carrying one apprentice relic along with my other 4 champion relics.

This is beyond bad luck - this is INANE game design. Being a veteran player and still in apprentice gear is just so wrong on so many level. It's INSULTING to have to be seen in apprentice gear at a high level and playing 24-7 for over a month. Sorry, just refuse to pull the trigger and spend the 200 gems to reset Heroic Realm to get another 20% chance at a drop without having to wait yet another 24 hrs of my life to roll the die.

There really should be an auto award or a progressively increasing statistical chance for a drop after a player leap frogs the noob class of equipment. It's just totally out of role-play to then see mid-level players at level 40 or so running around with full sets of champion gear (30 levels below you). That's completely an inversion to the seniority of of the role-play genre for this to be seen in-game. Part of the prestige of advancing in rank and level is to be an example of success and accomplishment for the newer players to inspire them to work hard. But in this silly game its all apparently a matter of pure luck or pure bad-luck. If the odds are so bad at least give us an in-game little dark rain cloud that hovers over our heads and follows us around wherever we go just like the jinxed lil' Abner perpetual bad-luck comic character "Joe Btfsplk". At some point its time to fix the odds or just "do the right thing" and give people the missing pieces as part of the next rank level up awards.

It's ridiculous and just drudgery that really throws a wrench into the game flow...

I am so confused

If you have gotten your 6th CHAMP Relic Plan why do you stll have an apprentice Spirit? Becuase you havent been able to get a HB spirit?

I would say bingo, you got it. He's still working on his last Hopebringer's Relic.

Less of the flaming guys, it seriously sours my cocoa.

Mucho thanks.

[RiverBummer]

Morgan you deleted my very informative entire comment that gave solutions to the problem because Mat got his feathers ruffled showing himself to be ignorant to the basic problem. That's not fair moderation. He is confusing the thread with his total lack of understanding of the issue.

[RiverBummer]

AGAIN - the proper answer is:
1) If a player is well past the Heroic Elites that drop hero relics and slaying Champ Relic NPCs and Guardian gear NPCs then the lower level Heroic Elite (in this case Reanimated Elite) should AUTO DROP the relic at the very next visit to him or the lower level gear should drop along with the champ version of the relic when you beat the Mage Professor.

That's because you've again confused yourself. I'm talking about relics not spirit gear...

This is my least favorite aspect of the game.
I have two hope-bringer's relics.
Reanimated hasn't dropped one in a full month now.
I'm up to plague prof. which drops champ relics.
Starting to think, this alone will be reason enough for me to quit playing.
Obviously, there are viable solutions in this thread.
I like the idea of graduated difficulty for each tier.
Also, reanimated dropping only relics, maybe with greater difficulty from large power boosts at each star level.
Please, patch the heroic realm?

I finally got my last hero relic a week after I had 5 champ relic plans or equipment. It seems to be that once you have nothing but Champ plans the logical thing to do would be to just give the champ relic as a boobie prize. I was well into guardian gear through level 71 and still had a apprentice relic. That's beyond bad luck - that's insulting to veteran players.

I have to agree The heroic realm is BS in it's set-up and drops. I play several servers and have varying luck on all of them. I find that the bad luck I have on a server continues to all other areas of the game on that server. But I digress. I have been fighting the drop for a champ relic for over 2 weeks and still get mainly staffs or swords, NO relics at all. I'm upto the Molten Golem and don't need any other equipment other than the Champ relics. I have full guardian gear upto the Cloak. Granted, I got most of the guardian gear from Cerb/Baal top 3 finishes(that's another BS change that was supposed to make it better but didn't) but I have them all unlocked to the Golem. I think they should put the same thing on the HR that they did with the (F#$@%#$#%) Speakers, abandon them and you don't get them that much anymore! That way when you start getting repeats of something, it drops the chance that you get that item when you abandon each item. That could easily fix THAT problem with the heroic realm.

Has anyone noticed that you can easily beat the Quest Boss that goes with the materials that you can't come close to beating in the HR. I think it's backwards! Make the HR boss the same as the quest boss that goes with the materials to grind the gear that is dropped.
