Elemental stones [SOLVED]

[Zarathos]

The description of elemental stones says that they should drop from Heroic Dungeons. I've completed dozens of those (currently on HD2) and have yet to see one drop. Does the chance for drop increase in next dungeons (HD3+) or is the drop rate just that insanely low. It's not that I really need many of them, it's just that this seems odd and somewhat buggy.
Eagerly waiting for anyone's reply

I am not sure the drop rate has anything to do with the dungeon level but I remember it being quite low: once in 7-8 dungeons, sometimes nothing for 15 dungeons in a row. There's a higher chance of getting elemental stones in fortress fights.

it's not a part of the reward of the dungeon.
It's a bonus that you can have in a message like for crafting and earth stone.
And yes, it's rare.

I see, thanks clarifying that. I've done over 2 dozens of HD runs for sure, and have yet to see at least one drop. Sheesh, fortress runs is our everything, I guess.

You should also check your "system messages" and see whether or not you have a message "rare element found" just before or after the completed heroic dungeon message. They don't show as reward / loot from heroic dungeons.

Checking every time I finish a dungeon, didn't appear even once. Thanks for reminding, though

Not a single drop as of yet. About 5 or 6 epic items for my Rals and ToTs, yet not a single elemental stone drop. Always checking the mail, not a single notification about those stones. All of my 350+ e-stones are from fortress fights.

About a month has passed, approximately 60 HD runs done, not a single elemental stone. Don't tell me it's just bad luck...

BUMP!

Yeah the drop rate of elementals is really low in game but you'll probably get more than you need from fortress anyway,the big problem are the water and ice elemental stones :/

A bug is a bug, and it should be fixed, no matter how minor it is. And I believe that not having a single stone elemental drop in over a hundred runs (I believe I've been running HD's for more than 3 months now) is definitely a bug. Unless people report bugs, they won't get fixed. I myself don't care about Stone Elementals, I almost have enough of them for Banuq. Still, it's a bug.
