Last night I got into a random PUG group for FoW. I was SS/BR necro there and we did the Forgmaster Quests with 7 members, then 2 left and we went to the forest with 5 of them. Did the griffon Quest there and then we wont to kill just some others for Shards.

The thing is I got shards like crazy, it seemd like they are only dropping for me, I got 2 shards in a row and all togheter I got 6 of them, some got like 4, 3, 2 , but in the end more then 18 shard were droped, from my past FoW experiences this is a lot more then usaly, has one had new simmilar exp. after this update + didnt they add some new poping shadow beasts?

I too went to fissure recently and (even thought i got none) I saw members of my party wracking up 3-4 shards each. Out of the 8, two of us got none, yet about six got 2+ shards. I'd say there has been an increase in shard drops.

I've seen 18+ shards drop, and I've seen less than 2 drop. It's not an increase from before, but you got very good drops regardless on that run

Someone turned the nerf switch the wrong way.

Tower of Courage, right to the forgemaster quests... after defending we had I believe 8 rares and at least 6 shards. But no chests, we didn't care. 6 from our guild, 1 ally, and 1 non-allied with us. Never seen drops that good before.
