I have been having very frustrating results opening the rune chests I recently received from beating dungeons. For the past three weeks I have only gotten level 3 runes from the 3 to 5 chest, level 4 from the 4 to 6 chest, and ive never gotten anything higher than a 5 from the 5 to 10 chest. I was curious if anyone else has been getting only the lowest level runes possible from the rune chests awarded from the dungeons? When these were first introduced, I got a varying degree of runes when I opened the chests. To me, it seems the rates for getting the better runes have dropped off the face of the earth. I do all the dungeons weekly so I open more than 20 of these chests weekly, so my results should have been better than this. Here is hoping its just my bad luck and not everyone is getting bad results.

Opening rune chests from dungeons
Post count: 96Reputation: 58Joined:@opinurmynd Really, you should be comparing the current dungeon output, assuming you always get the lowest level rune from the chest, to the old dungeon. I haven't done that but I do know the old dungeon capped at lvl 4 runes, was it 3 or 4 total?
I usually end up with the lowest rune level from a chest but not always. I doubt the odds are even for each level rune in the chest. When I open a few from one series, I always keep a mental count to see what my 'average' rune level was from that series and it is always less than half.
Example, if I open 4 of the "3 to 5" chests and end up with; III, III, III, V. My 'average' rune level is 3.5.
I have pulled a higher than 5 on the last chest twice in the past but recently it has only been 5s.

Post count: 37Reputation: 7Joined:@teh_alan I know the new dungeon chests are a net gain overall on the number of runes and quality. Ive just been disheartened as the first 2 or 3 weeks of the new dungeon chests resulted in many of the upper level runes in the chests. The last 3 weeks have been only given me the lowest possible results on the good chests. Maybe there was a stealth nerf? Idk.

Nah, not stealth. The game updates thread says they 'rebalanced' the chests. March game updates
I assume 'rebalance' is a euphemism for lowering the value of whatever they are rebalancing.
I always set my expectations to get the lowest value item possible in chests so anything above that is a treat. Also the reason why I will never buy those random luck chests that may contain lots of goodies.
