[Droprate] Vulture Gizzard

[Arcitec]

Current Behaviour

Extremely low drop rate. I spent 5 hours in the Blasted Lands, killing every bird I could see, and finished every other quest in the zone. I still did not have enough Vulture Gizzards to complete the zone-entry area quests that needed it.

It's clearly not a blizzlike droprate. Because this item is supposed to be pretty easy to farm so that you can turn them into consumables in an infinitely repeatable quest. Considering that I could barely even finish the base quest which gives XP, I'm sure that this drop rate is incorrect.

30%/40% drop chance on AC.

That's a good number, which makes me wonder what's wrong. I actively chased the buzzards over and over, killing them every time I saw them even if they were far away from me, and it was still absolute hell to even get 1 stack of the Vulture Gizzards for the quests. I was done with every other quest in the zone before I had collected the vulture pieces.

At the same time, I avoided all other mobs but ended up with multiple stacks of the other materials.

I could have had extremely bad luck, but I would estimate the drop rate I got to be around 10% or less. Because practically every corpse had 0 Vulture Gizzard.

I am not sure what's up with that. I assume ChromieCraft runs the latest AzerothCore drop rates. :/
