I went through 70 rooms twice, 1 time it gave me 2 locks, 2 times it gave me 1 lock, 3 times it gave me 0, and in the end I broke the Temple. Stop talking nonsense if you don't get paid for it.

Just leave your feedback on steam.
The lights are on, but nobody is home here.
I will reiterate this, only way we get any traction.

I just ran two temples with 12 T3 Spymasters and got ZERO locks.
My friend has a smaller temple (without any Russian tech) and is getting locks normally.
So:
- Does a temple with a high number of rooms mean fewer locks?
- If we have Spymasters > Garrison > Spymasters, does the drop rate become lower?
What is the truth? It’s obvious that a nerf was shadow-dropped.
100%
Never happend this in the past days
With GGG you should always read between the lines. Hotfix 13 from Jan 3:
"
Added a Diminishing Returns to the Modifier Values applied by Rooms. This doesn't kick in unless you have four or more of a given room type placed. This change will have a minor impact on average Temple setups, if at all, but have a relatively high impact on top-end Temples. These Temples were causing drastic server performance problems, and in often cases crashing. If you have enough rooms placed to engage the diminishing returns, it will apply to lower tier rooms first, making sure that your higher tier rooms benefit the Temple as much as they can.
Do those "diminishing returns" affect medallion drops? No idea, ask GGG. We all know they always try to make grind as long/tedious as possible, with as little rewards as possible, as long as people still keep playing and don't uninstall.
This means constant unpopular changes and balancing on the edge of player frustration. But formally you can never accuse them of shadow nerfs because they did "inform" you about changes like above notes:)

I have ONE T3 spymaster and TWO at T1... just got 3 locks and I usually get at least 1 each run.
LOL There is no secret ninja nerfing your little snake, you are just unlucky.
I frequently get them from other T3 rooms too so maybe just make a NORMAL temple? Do you know what diminishing returns are?
are you serious dude? you get a shitload of locks early, just wait until you have placed like 3 commanders

Some people die of thirst while others drown. That's 9 locks.

Why the f do i keep getting re-roll medallions now on spies? fully upgraded gg tech temple all complete. No issues with maintaining 5-6 locks all week, now it starts bricking because for the last 20 runs i cant drop locks to save my life. what is this bullshit?

I had no problems for weeks (I rebuilt my temple from scratch after the T3 lock medallion was reverted).
Since yesterday, everything is broken: medallions now drop randomly, and lock medallions have been drastically reduced.
Until then, I could sustain my locks and keep progressing normally.
So something has obviously changed, whether you admit it or not.
I really hope this is just a bug, because if this was a silent server-side change with no communication to players, this is unacceptable — and it’s the second time in a row.
We deserve to know exactly what is going on.

I played always FULL LOCK STASH with 9 spymasters, 73+ room, over 100+ temple run. You're doing something wrong.

I have 14 Spymasters, and in three runs I got only one lock (and not from a Spymaster).
A lot of people are experiencing the same issue, so I don’t think all of us suddenly started doing something wrong.
The only difference I notice in your temple is that you are not using the Russia tech, but the normal one.
However, if this is the reason, I would like to know why this huge nerf was not mentioned in the patch notes.
