Latent sunder charm droprates

Hi and thank you for sharing!
So sunders can actually drop on non-level 5 Heralds, fine.
I had 1 in ~272 in my mind, so 1 in ~91.3 once you're at

Herald level 5 is better than thought - at least for me!

P.S. Found one latent sunder on my very first level 5

Herald kill so far...

I still don´t get why they erased the "old" Sunder Charms. To preserve them would have hurt nobody because you still can go "back" and farm them (I would be OK with the current drop rate of the new ones because they are simply icing on the cake for "dedicated fulltime gamers" ). It only makes it more annoying because you have to have Chars in both worlds and then convert etc....

Exactly what happens now. From what I've read ladder is infested with bot items coming from LoD ladder which are converted to RotW because bots aren't working (for now) on RotW.

You can convert ladder Chars, too? Then this really makes no sense at all, at least to me...

That's what you get when you get advices from yt divas having a personnal agenda.
What annoys me the most is we still don't have official patch notes, we have to relay on players to datamine stuff. Basically we paid without knowing, and we happily paid.
I don't know about USA, but in my country it's illegal to sell anything without full information. People will tell me "dude chill it's only a game", wrong, it's a service you're paying to a compagny recently bought for 70 billions usd.
So yeah, stash management is nice, no need for so many mules, great.
The rest is "meh" at best, at worst, a reason to never play again.
25 bucks for that ? And we are beta testing things ? Didn't realise that D2R was in anticipated access.

If you don't like it, then don't play it. You're just whining because your casual itch for instant gratification can't be scratched. Game is perfectly playable without new sunder charms (i've been killing lvl 5 heralds with my blizz sorc with "old" sunder, albeit somewhat slowly and carefully).

It's like complaining that Griffon's are hard to get - maybe due to how powerful they are, they are meant to be farmed, and not everyone has to have one immediately, but put in some work?

D2 was never intended for casuals in that matter - if you wanted the best items, you had to put in tensofhours in game and hope that the luck is on your side. With all that being said, I wish that the drop rates for latent sunders were improved - but definitely not to the point of the "old" sunders dropping multiple times in an single hour of TZ farming.

About datamining - no game I know was provided with a booklet of drop rates for all items in game - even in "casual" games like Stardew Valley this kind of stuff must be dug out from the game files.

As I already said: I have no problem with the rarity of the new Sunder Charms in Principle. But try to remove your current "old" Sunder Charm and then do TZs (especially a complete TZ act). I could imagine that this is not particularly "fun" and "motivating" when you know you only can get a new Sunder Charm with the current drop rate

Haven't tried that but if you can just convert mid-ladder, removing the old sunders in RotW but not LoD is just beyond daft.

"Hey, if you want the best shot at ruling the RotW ladder on basically any non-lock elemental char...don't play RotW."

Exactly my thought. Start in LoD, use old Andy drop rate to farm, get your Sunder and then convert to RotW. Seems legit
