I found the silver one.
Anyone find the gold one? Or even better yet... both to make the 5*?
Stats for the silver solstice look like:
fire low + ice med + 1hp
Stats for the gold solstice look like (thanks to Son-Of-Hades):
fire med + ice low + 1hp
It seems that it only gets dropped from the lonely center treasure box right after the battlepod boss.
Additionally (as of this latest edit) the 5* does not exist yet as it cannot be crafted in the new alchemy machine.
What difficulty were we playing on, again? Might have had something to do with it dropping. Advanced, right?
I got it from the center box post boss on D25 on elite. One friend also got the same trink from the same spot, so it may seem like that box is different from the rest despite being green and we may only get 1 chance per run.
Well you already know since I showed it to you, but for everyone else, I got the silver solstice ring on elite difficulty. Only took about 4 runs
So I SHOULD keep playing Elite.
I guess the difficulty just affects snowballs and crowns.
Anyone know how to craft it?
Hades now has both gold and silver but dont know how to make the 5* version.
It was never really specified where you would craft them together.
"Can you make it all the way to the summit? If so, you have a chance to win Golden or Silver Solstice Rings. These 4* trinkets protect against fire and freeze with a +1 health bonus. Leave them as-is, or combine them to craft a 5* Grand Solstice Ring trinket!"
I'm pretty sure it wasn't at the newest alchemy machine. Krogmo Machine maybe? Moorcraft/Emberlight Alchemy Machine?
Maybe an alchemy machine was suppose to be in Grinchlin Assault like how many special crafting machines are suppose to be in certain missions, but somehow wasn't?
I submitted a support request and you're supposed to craft it at the new alchemy machine. Corolis or whatever his/her name was says that a bugfix will be coming soon for that.
Where would a Ice/Fire Trinket be useful besides Lockdown?
I can't think of any level (maybe Compound) with both Freeze and Fire status.
The Gauntlet, I think. Maybe it'll help for something coming soon, sort of like the Obsidian weapons and this event..
^The gauntlet has arsenal stations though... Probably new content? One can hope and imagine.
It might also be intended to be useful in the current danger mission, except a straight-up penta would probably just be better.
Zeddy isn't a hipster, that's why a straight-up penta would probably just be better.
Incidentally, it was found in the right box, in the middle.
What is the drop rate on one of these so far?
"What is the drop rate on one of these so far?" <- incredibly low. At least 1 in 50, perhaps 1 in 100 or even beyond... I've done about 15 runs on elite with 7 other people at different times, and only 1 of us has got a ring so far. So 15 runs * 7 people = 105 chances of getting a ring, and since we got 1 that's where my "1 in 100" guess comes from (and it is a guess).
A sample size of 1 is clearly far too small to mean anything, but at least it should give you a rough idea of the truly phenomenal amount of times you have to play this mission (on elite!) over the next 2 weeks to get these rings... There will always be people who get lucky such as a few people in this thread; that is the nature of random chance.
how can you make 15 runs with 7 people? the maximum party size is 4... you could say that you have 7 friends that have made the mission.
besides, little numbers like 100 don't tell anything; if you want to run a test, you should do it on a way bigger scale.
still, probabilities of finding these trinkets are low.
What I meant was I've done 15 runs in total, with 7 other people who have rotated in and out of the party (and they have formed some of their own parties without me) - and they have also done around 15 (some up to 30) runs. My point still stands, that it's starting to look like you will have to do 100 or more runs on elite to get 1 trinket...
That's a bit...disappointing being a 4*. Oh well, maybe the 5* Ring will be better. Nice find, by the way.
