Mini Polar Bear Drops
Divine Ashes
By actually helping out in the end (and half-assing it at that), it was pretty easy for me to get consistent 5 minute runs from start to chest spawn.

lol, exactly what I thought. Sometimes when taking screenshots the comp slows slightly, I guess I'd only ss after taking it. Ohh I can dream...

Up to now 23 runs and only "white goo" from the chest. Anyone may confirm this mini ever drops this year??

Polar Bear 500e unded? IF YOU GET ONE DROPPED WISP ME PLEASE VIA HERE, I WILL BUY IT!!!!!!!! !!! !
Windf0rce
500e is really low.
Now, what I am afraid of is that there is a kind of drop condition besides to its rarity. For example, drop chance is only enabled if a certain other Wintersday quest is completed, or a certain day, I don't know.

Really guys if your hopes are any higher than 0.0035% your hopes are way too high...

They wouldn't do those things anymore than they're already built into the drop system. In theory it's just a pure drop rate issue. But the thing to remember is your chances don't stack. You can do a thousand runs and get nothing, because all you're getting is the same super low chance each time. It's like buying a thousand lottery tickets. It's not worth it. Buying 50,000 might work, or it still might not. But as a general rule of thumb in life when someone wants you to grind away at bad chances, they're making a patsy out of you.

I've heard you get higher rates with a higher lucky title...can someone confirm ?
Since I have only r1 unlucky .-. I should just give up now lol

Imo its a waste of time farming for MPB... also a waste of money for it too.
Seriously a small polar bear isn't worth 500-1000e when you will get tired of it a few weeks later...
It would be hilarious if they made it like a 2-5% chance so power traders are screwed as prices would go down a ton.

its luck.. some lucky person could get 2 in 2 runs
mmmkay i am bad
might as well run to the end, afk, and do homework lol

I did 700+ runs last year and got none. My goal was to do 1000+ this year. So far I have done 5 runs and I am bored already. I have decided spending 500e is the option I am taking instead.
Barrage
Well the drop rate is 1 in 2857 runs, so you have a decent chance if you do 1000+. GL all
Darksim
... 500e?? that's all? I thought it was more around 1000e?
Mustache Mayhem
yeah I dunno I don't count the runs.. but I did enough to sell quite a few stacks last year- I was like comeon throw diddy a bone lol it's pretty rare, and do you notice it has never dropped for a vet.. it's always the level 8 ranger.. maybe something to that- you know the drop rate how you seem to get alot of golds after a layoff

Driving the price down seems like a pretty good idea to me. The damn thing's never gonna drop for me anyway.

I've heard if you run this quest moving backwards, and if you keep your one eye closed during the quest the chance to get MPB is equal not 0,035% but 0,042% !! Amazing! ISn't!
Axeman002
are these thing acctually dropping as ...i would imagine 1 person on Guru would have had one by now?!

50+ runs and only 241 shards? You must be very unlucky O_o
I just finished my 31st run and I got almost 2 stacks now... I do it for the shards, sweets and party points... and the bear. Not because it's "instant millionaire", but because I love how cute it is ^_^ |
snodaard

3 stacks in 15 runs is 50 per run.
ITT: too many liars.
P.S. A guildie got a polar bear. No lie. No proof.

No it's not.
I saw one man selling in Kana Unded MPB for 1750 ectos.

For polar bear its not really worth to do Straight to the heart but for the wintersday gifts on the other hand it might be better to pile in as much ccs as possible, if you are going for the titles.

I am going for both sweet tooth and party titles, but doing the Strength of Snow quest because it's a lot less frustrating and I can run 2 accts at the same time with no real time loss between the two ^_^
Not even speaking of the bigger chance of the polar bear
KZaske
Last year, I did 493 runs trying to get one. This year, I have a hard time sticking with it for more than three or four runs at a time. Only 19 runs so far. Wish I could farm ectos, I could buy one faster than getting it as a drop.
IattackU
Can anyone confirm one with a screenshot yet this year?
Kumu Honua
Spent all night last night doing runs. More today. 5 stacks of cc's so far (I'm not the fastest as I like to kill them all otherwise it's BORING....well....more boring than doing it over and over.
So far no bear, but lots of CC's and other goodies.
I can only pray to the RNG gods.
