Exalted Orbs

Hi, I've accumulated about 5 days of playtime since the season started, cleared all maps, delved too about 200, dinged lvl 90 (404 Deaths due to lack of currency)and are in the end-game boss farming state.

Yet i have not have 1 single Exalted Orb drop this season. I've had 9% quantity on my gear since 70, checked that it is not a loot filter problem and even had friends come and drop them in my map too see if they would show.

Have they nerfed this too the ground this season? Or just made them disappear overall?

12 hours of this was probably leveling, leaving another 100h+ of game play in maps/delving/Uber Labs without a hint of them existing.

Currently my gear is worth about 37 ex, where most is from UI chaos recipes, so even with immensely bad luck there should have been dozens exalted orbs in the mix when gathering 5000 sets for chaos recipes.

Are your algorithms okay? Should there be any safeguards regarding this?

unless you have been marked as a bot (witch they will never confirm) then no bug here but RNG.
How can i be sure there's no bug? I'm a seasoned player with several 1000Ex Chars, but this is unheard of.

i mean, 100h+ game play.

Seems like a bug to me.
Ive never understood why people judge their drops based on number of exalts.

If you have 35 ex worth of gear then it sounds like you have had plenty of things worth an ex drop. Have a badge drop? Thats an exalt. Have a well rolled piece of jewelry drop? Thats an exalt.

Exalts also have a low enough drop rate that people will be outside the realm of variance and it will seem like there is something wrong even though there isnt.

35 Ex worth of gear due too Chaos Recipes and Buying/selling items of the Market. I've gotten 3 Notable drops this season. The "rare" Two stoned ring worth 30c, 50% movement speed boots worth 34c and 1 yellow worth 65c.

Rest of my wealth is purely from buying/selling and TONS+TONS of chaos recipes this season.


It might "sound" like i have had a lot of drops, but your assessment is wrong. I'm merely playing the game quite hard and flipping things east and west. I've done several hounded trades so ranging from 1-15c. My money was amassed one drop at a time, but even with these numbers of sales and hours played, i still find myself further and further behind compared to prices this league.

Clocking 100+ hours too this date means I've done nothing else since the start of the season.

And i do not feel comfortable just "blaming it on RNG" at this point anymore.

This is absurd
God bless you for doing that much chaos recipe then. I would go mad from the clicking.

If you truly believe your account is bugged then there is not much more to say to help you. The one thing I will add is you usually dont see people coming to the forums with stories of crazy good rng.

A personal example of my own was dropping 4 raw exalts in the span of about 4 hours doing alc and go red maps. All I could do was laugh when the 4th one dropped because having that many raw ex drop so fast without insane juicing is hilariously low odds.
I once leveled from 99 to 100 without an ex drop. Thats a whole shit ton of monsters killed.

Also, 5000 chaos recipe in 100 hours is doing the recipe every 1 mins 15 seconds. All this while you're doing "thousands of trades" according to your words.

I call bullshit.

seems pretty normal to me.


sometimes you get 3 exalts in a day, sometimes you play every day for 3 weeks and get none. thats the kind of swing to be expected with exalted orbs.
I love all you people on the forums, we can disagree but still be friends and respect each other :)
