I spent 4 hours at TT today, and have spent about 12 hours there so far. About 20% of the time has been with 2x or 1.5x. All in all, I've found 4 (yes, 4 ) pieces of time altogether. In the 4 hours I spent there today, 1.5 hours were on 2x, and I found NOTHING. Not even one piece of time. Instead, I found: Sparta (101WA) White Fangz (70WA) Silver Kalkan (3 STR) 88 WA Metus Amongst other random equips for warriors and the like. Also a 60% Pole Arm Attack. Isn't it weird that equips or supposedly 'rarer' drops are found instead of a piece of time? Or am I just imbued with bad luck? I've asked around and a friend has found all 45 pieces of time within 6 hours on 4x. So that's 24 hours approx. I've spent half of that and gotten 4. So, post your hunting stories here and a PC of the items listed? :D

Well considering Time Pieces have the rarest drop rate out of any etc. item... Also, I recommend you farm at the 3 bosses, their drop rates are naturally higher. 3 Bosses>Eye of Time>Monsters from first to last, is what monster has the highest drop rate.

I find I have horrible luck with any drops at TT. Soloed almost all of the Memory lanes, and no time piece as of yet. My friend helped me clear some today, and he found two right away. xD

Yeah, I'm farming at those maps. Even so, is it likely that they could drop rarer than an equip/scroll? And another thing, I finished Dodo, went to see the Memory Keeper and he told me to go back to where my memory began. What does that mean?

Well, while my bro and I were doing the 999 quests we found about 30. What we would do is CC after every Piece of Time we found.

It's a riddle that means go see your first job instructor. :D

i seem to find Time pieces without 2x or 4x at Qualm Monks better than anywhere else.

I am forced to believe that they don't exist and that they are a mythical item despite them being on sale in the FM for 10mil a pop. An entire level there and 0 found.
