pack of mobs drop max 1 cinder now ?
rofl blizzard

Everything is untouched - last helltide 600 cinders in ~10 minutes.

Sometimes helltides are bugged and the cinder drop rate is atrocious. Just log out and log back in and it should fix it.

This but not sure if relog helps, tried this few times with no effect, works for me to spawn 300chests afterrelog.
Looks like 10/20% helltides are bugged and I just skipp them

yeah i guess so it was bugged for me
group of monster packs were droping 1 or nothing for me
just blizzard things lol

Today i had a helltide where i got ~60 cinders in 10 minutes. Mob density and droprates sucked hard.
After porting to the other helltide area everything was fine again.
First time this happened to me in season 2.

if your environment screen loses that red shade, cinders are bugged and get pretty much nothing

When I ran solo it took 23 minutes to get a living steel chest (last night). I usually can double dip a helltide in a group of 4 with time to spare. Any thoughts of it was nerfed or just because I ran solo

Servers on which game is hosted are trash, sometimes drop is delayed by few minutes, especially in seasonal or helltide zones, some items drop instantly and some after a while. Experienced also when cinders dropping animation was visible but drop didnt occured at all. Yep, silly lizzard.

I think it's glitched
