Inconsistency with Isle of Thunder Key drops

[fatnerdynerd]

Realm where you noticed the issue: Mistblade 2 (Mop)

Description: Key to the Palace of Lei Shen isn't dropping often enough, especially not from chests https://wowrarespawns.blogspot.com/2013/04/troves-of-thunder-king.html is the single best source of information I could find about it, so far I loot 1 chest on 5-6 characters per week and never have I gotten even half the mentioned drops from it, never the key. it says: "These chests generally contain about 30 gold, a Shan'ze Ritual Stone, a Fortuitous Coffer (which will usually yield 1-3 Elder Charm of Good Fortune and a small chance at any one of the books required for the Zandalari Library Card Achievement. If you have not yet looted a [Key to the Palace of Lei Shen] (http://www.wowhead.com/item=94222) since the weekly Tuesday reset from a rare or another source, there is a good chance you'll see one in your chest as well."

Current behaviour: Treasure Troves give almost nothing, usually 1 Elder charm and a ritual stone/book. Not the gold nor the Key. Rares seem to have a very low drop rate too, often requiring killing at least 5-6 rares before you see the first key of the week.

Expected behaviour: Keys should drop much more easily for the first time each reset from multiple sources.

"there is a good chance you'll see one in your chest as well" afaik this chance is 35%, moreover, it does not heavily reduce with opening another trove, so technically u can farm it infinitely (pretty broken ngl), some ppl are farming only troves for keys, and getting more than 4-5 keys per ID which, technically, is a bug: Link to mentioned bluepost: https://web.archive.org/web/20151213195228/http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/8480648465?page=1#16 if something chance of getting keys from them should be reduced, not raised, and troves should be lootable only once per week report can be closed, better make one about nerfing it, cuz it is pretty abusable bug

I believe this was fixed recently as I couldn't find new chests once I looted one and as soon as I logged an alt the chest appeared (could have spawned in those 30 seconds but I find that very unlikely)

I'd highly prefer they made keys drop more often now that the infinite chest farm has been fixed.

Well it depends if the fix of the endless farm was based on whatever the issue is here. If there issue is that it drops more than once a week, i'd say the issue is that instead of it not dropping often enough

Keys are dropping more than once a week, moreover the drop from troves infinitely, the troves are despawning, but u can open other troves that will spawn / are spawned in different location We need completely different BT post, but ngl I am not gonna do it, since current state is a surplus for players in a environment with brolls not being consistent way of getting loot (unlike mb1), they get more brolls than they should since they can complete more leishen scenarios than they were able to do on retail
