Influenced Item Drop Rate is terrible.

Now that the Apparition scarab has been nerfed it's way to hard to find influenced items. I spent the last four days of the league farming any influenced maps I could do (preferably with guardians/conquerors) just to get a set to finish the Peddler's Produce 2 challenge (sell a full set of the same type for exalted shards).

Admittedly I am not the fastest mapper but I would guess I did close to 100 or so, and I got exactly one ring, and no amulet. I found a bunch of other types, but rings/amulets were just about impossible to find.

ya they had to reel this in a while back you could get dozens of influenced items from just a few packs in influenced maps.

I think its better this way even though it is annoying there are orbs for every influence now that we have shaper/elder orbs. So there is no real excuse if you want one you can farm the boss for the orb and make your own base.

Fair point that the influence drop is atrocious but another good option along with the orbs is to randomize the influence at harvest. Only cost 1000 blue juice so its not that hard or expensive to get a full set of the same influence type.
