I've been playing since release and I've never gotten a single one. I've only clocked ~1500 hours though... comparing that to some people who have been playing this game as long as I, it's not much time at all. Still, you'd think I would have gotten at least one...

A grand total of 0,00 superior vigor runes here. I'm really happy the price dropped to current levels

Oh, yeah, 11 months, 1300hours+ played.

~2400 hours (I think, over 2000 I know)
I've gotten... I believe 3 or 4 (might be confusing one of those with a superior absorbtion back when they were worth 100k).

I don't recall getting a superior vigor rune from a drop before. I've gotten several monk superior runes though. And recently got a 20/20 bowstring.

I've had a couple in 18 months of playing, both from ettin's luckily they both dropped when the prices were at the higher end of the scale.

I've been playing since November 2006 (9 months (maybe 300 hours?)), have identified about 60-70 gold items (mostly random drops; maybe 20 from chests), and gotten one sup vigor.
Luck of the draw, really.

i have sup vigors on 5 of my 7 characters, none of which were purchased.

Every one of them happened after I came back after 8 months away from the game.

9 months playing, got 3 or 4 Superior Vigors in the last 2 months, never before.

One of them I got from a guy selling a unide armor on Droks, bought it for 500g, trew in the storage and forgot about it. ID'ed it yesterday and got a Sup Vigor and Radiant Insignia hehe.

20 months, must have had 5 drop for me, 2 of them were back when the price was still stupidly high. Ettin farming, ah good old days.

I got one around the time they added Druid 15k armour, and one farming Ettins just before Factions release.

I have had about 12 - 15. Mostly from chest running. Twice I have had 2 in a single day and once it was like 4 in a 5 day period. They are more common than you think.

Most of them have come from Ice Floe and Mirror of Lyss.

I have had 2 drop in 2300 hours over 26 months. With drops so poor I don't see how they are practically worthless. I remember the good old days, 50k for sup vigour and 70k for sup absorption, now I did get one of those back in the day.

I've been playing since the release of Prophecies. Well, technically I started playing in the World Preview Event and for all of the beta weekends, but it's hard to remember all the details of then since the game has changed so much.

So my account says about 2,800 hours over the past 28 months.

I've gotten maybe 5 superior vigors in Guild Wars, of which only 2 or 3 I actually was able to salvage (lost the others to the old, unreliable way of salvaging.)

I think the majority of superior vigors I've had in my inventory and on my characters came from the day the traders reset their prices, but I can't recall exactly. What a hectic day that was.

the first gold drop I got from those guys was a sup vigor. They nerfed em the next day

I tried a while back just to check and all whites not even a crappy minor rune in the whole bunch.

Well my earlier guess (page before) was 12-15 in just short of 2 years game play. I just did an audit though of all my toons and heroes to get an exact number.

The fact is that I have only ever bought one SV rune and that was for my original toon. It took nearly 12 months of game play and was only in the months leading into Nightfall that I saw my first Sup Vig drop / chest. That puts it a little more than 10 months ago. At the time the SV's had dropped to about 30K, and I sold 4 of them before I started saving them to make Nightfall toons.

Looking through all my toons and their hero's tonight I counted up 16 SV runes. Since I have never paid for another after the original toon that means that I have had a total of 15 plus the 4 I sold.

So that means I have had 19 drop (well mostly out of chests) in the past 12 months. Can't be that rare then can they?

I've had about 7-9 over the last year, there certainly seem to be hot spots for them. I've gotten like 3 from farming, rest from chest runs.

Oh yeah, I got my last one farming dreadnoughts drift last night, only done it twice and a sup vigor has dropped both times, not a bad place. And I fill my inventory up with golds pretty fast there.

I got one today...

I've probably had at least 10 drop in my lifetime. Then again, I chest farm and I have over 1880 chests open.

I dont farm, it's boring.
The only runes I get are from armours I get while doing missions.

26 Months. 2,183 hours played. 0 Vigors.

I've never seen a Vigor or Ecto on my account, even with the farming I do. Doesn't really matter, though, I suppose.

Thanks for reminding me that I've never gotten a Superior Vigor, I had blocked it from my mind.
