I wonder why utility flasks are so rare?

Hello.
Playing from lvl 85 to 91, I did not see one single saphire/ruby/topaz/amethyst/basalt/jade/quartz or alike flask drop.
So all my flasks have ilvl of 29, 42, the highest one is 63.
Am I just having bad luck???

You’re generally having bad luck.
However, flask drop rates differ depending on your activities as well. Try spamming level 83 delve and you’ll get to a point where 83-84 flasks drop all the time. Mob density matters and maps generally don’t have enough unless you have certain mods like breach or beyond.
Check your filter to see if it's hiding them. If you played through that many levels and saw 0 utility flasks, there's an extremely high chance they're being hidden.

I agree to that.
Now, finding a specific type of utility flask can be hard, but if you didn't see ANY, that's kinda weird.

Last league I added a line to my filter so it would highlight Amethyst Flasks, because I needed them for the crafting challenge. It took longer than I thought to finally get enough together to craft a Ring of Exile.

Definitely check your filter.

As others said, your filter is 100% hiding them. No way this is happening.

If you want to look for a specific item, you can put something like this block near the top of your loot filter. I use it when looking for specific items in the short term. It's an exalt sound and looks way different from all other items, so you'll never miss it.


## Temporarily Seeking Exalt Sound ##

Show # %D2 %C1 $tier->t2 $type->chancing
Corrupted False
Mirrored False
BaseType == "Granite Flask" "Quartz Flask"
SetFontSize 100
SetTextColor 250 0 50 255
SetBorderColor 0 255 0 255
PlayAlertSound 6 300

Thank you for all your replies.

Awesome! Thank you. Yes I will definitely check the filter..
