I've gotten probably 15 or so from random things. About 5-7 from Ettins though.

Don't lie. Sup vigors would never drop for you. I think you must be thinking of major vigors.

Ive gotten four Superior Vigors in 13 months of playing.


There's always going to be someone who just can't seem to get an item. That someone with exceptionally bad luck.

That someone is now you. Luck of the Draw, as the inscription says.


There's nothing to discuss here. No point in this thread.

I've been playing since the beta. To date, I've hit a grand total of 3 superior vigors. Two of them came from Nightfall in the last 6 months or so, and both came from unlocked treasures.

From what I've seen, superior runes seem quite random, but as with any truly random thing, there will be streaks. The one rune I've hit A LOT of is absorbtion. I've found about 10 of them in the last year, which is way more than any other superior rune by a long shot. Too bad those weren't superior vigors!

July '05. Have never seen a sup vigor drop. Got my first sup absorb the day after they plunged to 200g. One black dye since EotN, one in June '06. Two white dyes since EotN, none before.

If we're talking major vigors, I've gotten probably around 50 or so of those.

I think about 3 or 4 in past 28-29 months. 2 came from halls chests about a year ago within a week of each other :O. Then another 1 or 2 from random drops.

For those complaining about luck though, I really don't think it has too much to do with it. Luck will affect the drop from enemies, but I doubt me that any more than 2 of the 19 SV's ever came from drops. It has more to do with persistence and the 9150 high end chests I have opened. Not long to go now and I will max that title. As I mentioned earlier - Ice Floe and Mirror of Lyss were where I found most of them.

Been playing since the Betas before release.. Not one Sup Vigor, MAYBE 2 majors. Come to think of it I haven't even gotten all that many minors in over a year now..

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!?!?!?!?!?!?! Gaile must want all my characters to ddddiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.. lol Just kidding. I just have terrible luck with vigor runes. At least I get a few lockpicks dropping when farming

Best rune drops lately have been minor energy storage, strength, soul reaping and tactics... and only 1 each of those.

I've been playing for coming up to a year now, and still no sign of a superior vigor for me. I don't go farming for high-end stuff like that though, so I haven't really been putting much effort into finding them.

I've been playing since December 2005, been quite lucky with rune's, my fist character was a mesmer and it found 2 rune's superior absorbtion before it was level 14! They were around 100-120K then. The first time I had a superior vigor was with my ranger (my main character now), think about a year ago, have only found two of them ever.

I think superior vigor doesn't drop from every monster in the game, only a few drop it. And from my experience, look like it drops more in Tyria.

In a side note: It's really interesting the blue runes are the best now, the worst are purple, and normally the gold ones are crap too. ArenaNet must change blue runes to gold, and gold to blue, LOL!

I have been playing for 2 years now and have only received 3 of them. I got two on the same green run of sorrows furnace. Killed dwarf dropped armor and open chest next to him and it dropped one as well. Then got one 2 weeks ago in GWEN off a chest drop but all and all they are rare. Uber rare because I play way tooooooooooo much

the only time ive ever ID'd and got one was when i was a complete noob, they were like 80k (which i thought was uber rich). So i got frustrated and wonderd why they would put +50hp on armor which you cant wear, and merched it for 300g (which i thought was a nice sum at that time)

afew days later, i realised how retarded i was

i havent got one since, that must have been 17-18 months ago??

I've had ZERO superior vigor drops since i started playing when GW prophecies was in the shops. I guess it's just luck. I did however, have a lot of Superior Absorbtion runes drop for me.
