Why in the name of GOD are these so rare? I've spent days trying to get one, and nada. I mean...why not make them available from tokens? They're not like some kind of omega substance.

I understand why they drop from trojans, but there are NO trojans in this game practically, for no real reason.

I swear I got at least ONE of them in Tier 2 during the Preview. Maybe from a random arena.
Why not just make it a 5* material if it's meant to be found in T3?

It's funny how it's only found in t3, that you need them for Seraphic Set (and the higher levels), which is a 4* set, which is part of the requirements for entering Tier 3.

I've run into serveral Dark Trojans

In T2 arenas and the Plazamonium on Jelly runs, just never got any horseshoes from them.

There's simply not enough

There's simply not enough Trojans to fight in the few maps that have them. 1 is just not enough.

The Firestorm Citadel stages are the only places I can think of with multiple Trojans.

Forget the horseshoes, what

Forget the horseshoes, what about Critter Carapace? Did they break the drop or something? I've killed like a hundred chromalisks today and can't get one, and literally nobody has them to buy. Even offering 100 CE for them doesn't get any attention. Why is a 3* "common" mat completely unobtainable now?

100 CE is only worth about

100 CE is only worth about 2000 crowns right now. People are selling sword stones for half that. I think you need to up your price if you want something rare.

The boxes located here always have materials in them (never crowns/heat/consumables) I have found a trojan horseshoe here before.

It's because we have no Tier

It's because we have no Tier 3 Fiend stratums.

Guild WOULD make one, 'cause we do need some, but... Maaaan, have you seen the requirements? We can't make what's best for the entire community anymore! D:

These things are seriously

These things are seriously ridiculous. One horseshoe for some four star recipes might not be so bad if there were either enough trojans to fight or if they dropped the material more often, but two for some five star recipes is pretty harsh. I've got all of the five-star materials I need and I'm getting bottlenecked by these abhorrent horseshoes.

Definitely like to see some adjustment to the current status quo.

you can get 4 star mats in

you can get 4 star mats in tier 2. but only on the last 2 depths.

So you have to manage to get a trojan on those levels.

Sure, at one trojan per

Sure, at one trojan per level. Even if we assume I only run the deepest Tier 2 map, bypassing the CE cost of all of the preliminary floors entirely, and if we assume that I'm doing this alone and there isn't any chance that a dropped horseshoe will be distributed away from me, what are my odds? That's a hundred CE for ten tries just for that bottom floor, and I've killed twice that many trojans with no results. What is it in Tier 2, 70-80CE worth of floors before Emberlight?

Well, that's certainly alright. Nearly a thousand crystal energy for ten chances. And remember that I need four of these, having already used one, and I'm not even including headgear costs, just armors. Fantastic.

If you want to fight a lot of Trojans, try the Charred Court.
