Lump of Coal / Clockwork Rocketbot

Post by Mj12agent0014 » December 22nd, 2011, 5:06 pm

So I have been doing the daily on my 3 lvl 85's every day since it came out and still haven't gotten either of these pets. Looks like they have an extremely low drop rate. Looks to me like it will be another elusive holiday pet that never drops for me (screw you toxic wasteling and fridgid frostling lol).
Anyone see/here anything from blizzard that says they will increase the drop rates or am I just screwed and have to deal with my usual bad luck with these holiday pets? (other than sinister squashling, I haven't gotten any of the holiday rare drop pets :( )

I got the Lump of Coal but not the Clockwork yet...

Keep trying it's the only way.

( I feel your pain , Ahune won't give up the frostling no matter how nice I ask)

I hope you get it. I already have the clockwork rocketbot, but I want the lump of coal on my main... of course I got it on my alt, but I don't count that since she isn't my main.

On christmas eve I got the rochetbot and Lumpy in the same bag. (Though I already owned the rocket back from way back when)

RNG usually hates me.

Hopwefully you also get both in the same bag

Bah, still no Lump of Coal for me.

I'm rather disappointed the mechanical corgi wasn't added as a minipet gift. :(

7 characters, every day, one Lumpy, one Clockwork. (My old main had one before.)

RNG IS NOT FUN.

Still no Lumpy for me.

I haven't had to kill the Grinch since before Christmas. Am I just lucky?

Nope, that's about par for the course on decently populated realms. Another one of Blizzard's grand ideas. Ride a gryphon there and back, wait for the RNG.

5 chars visiting the Grinch every day - got my 2nd Lumpy today (but not on main).

I've got enough Clockwork Rocketbots to build an army.

Well... it took me 5 years to get the flying horse from the headless rider...

Yeah, I can live with not getting drops for a long time (such as killing foxes forever), because you can always do it. Stuff like this Christmas daily is completely random on if you get a pet or not and there is limited chances to get it. Thus, you can work as hard as possible, and still never see it. With the fox pet, you can work as hard as you can and will eventually get it. Stupid blizzard and their RNG pets, really puts a strain on pet collectors when people that don't care about pets are getting both and serious collectors can't get either.
