I saw 1 sometime last month. Other than that nada for me. I did have a small pile of them stashed away when they were relatively cheap, but it's dwindling fast now.

I get, on average, about one invite every 1-2 days (usually while I'm in the middle of quests).

The price is a bit strange though 😦 Maybe it has something to do with the new retirement/release cycles? I don't know, I'm honestly lost on how they got so expensive!


all or nothing, it's written in blood.

I don't understand REs. Some people will get them every couple of days, and then there's people like me and others on this board that will be lucky to get one RE every couple of MONTHS.

You know, I've only received the Tempest RE once in the entire time it's been on site?

I get no invites....its ridiculous I get it, try to make the subq items harder to obtain and therefore more prestigious so they are priced higher but...

This is kind of ridiculous :/

Someone please give me ❤️❤️❤️❤️ will offer well!

Reading this thread I kinda feel bad about getting invites so frequently D:

I wonder if there's some magic formula behind the randomness, like if it is tied to account age (I'm a new user)

I already redeemed mine but the next time I get a random invite I'll come back here and gift it to one of y'all

The drop rate is definitely lower. Also -- it seems there are no drops during events, which I can understand. Just wish they were as frequent as before. They may have lowered the dispersal rate since there were so many floating around once they cut inventory RS by more than half. When you have as many invites going out, but less than half the number of items in the boutique... Well, we should all get used to doing without complete sets -- or pay the scalpers, who got the rates cut to begin with, their outrageous ransoms.

I live in MN, and whatever you've heard... It's much worse.

I'm pretty sure the drop rate has increased - I saw a UA talking about having increased the probability and I also got 2 in one day a bitago when I was really active. Probability just sucks like that.

I think it's been going up as well; I've gotten a handful in the last week and a half, which seems about right to me.

the drop rate clearly hasn't changed since the invites are at 700k, it doesn't matter if a couple of users got 2. If there was a significant increase in the number of invites released the price would drop, period.

They actually have increased multiple times over the last several months. :)

Random events are random. There's also the cooldown of an hour after you get an RE, so keep that in mind.

You always said you wanted to keep the price range around 400/500k so if they're at 700/800k clearly it's not enough, mostly cause now they're readable and people use them instead of selling them. I had 60 stashed away and I've used them all up cause I barely got any in months, I understand the concept of random event but I can see the difference and it's not what it used to be.

We've been constantly reducing it. It's more than twice as common now as it was about a month ago. We actually increased all REs after the shop search change because of the decreased pageviews. We're doing what we can, but if people are hoarding them or buying them up cheap, there isn't a ton we can do about it!

It's random, FWIW, I keep getting them constantly any it annoys me because I don't have any need for them!

I am not complaining either, I had two today, which I redeemed. I try not to sell them if I do I did not pay enough attention

But then I get one every second day (or so).

Wish Tempest would visit me more frequently laughs and drop her books...

Still, I am happy

I hadn't gotten one in about three or four months I think? Found three in the past two weeks. Not complaining at all because of how many collections have been released recently.

I haven't gotten one in a month and I'm active every day so it's v strange but I've also had it the opposite where I've gotten a ton and others have gotten none.

On the other hand Tempest still hates me tho
