November 2025: Post your AMAN Trove Drops
By fractalvoid 2025-11-12 20:52:20
when I got my Hoxne Earring, it was ITG thud on first chest and middle chest was just a noise. I got Hoxne Earring, some sack+2 and 5m personal. (i took the screenshot on a different char that had already gone thru so the 5m doesn't show)

OK, well...there must be a glitch in the matrix. As of a few minutes ago, the same exact thing happened to me. I walk in, I get ITG on the first coffer. I get a thud on the Terminal coffer and *BOOM* Hoxne earring:
So, now that I'm 4/4 Hoxne items. Some stats:
105 Mars Orb.
287 Venus Orbs.
Edit: Zero repeat Hoxne items.
To go from Hoxne Item#3 (Ring) to #4 (earring), it took exactly 150 Venus orbs.

How many repeat Hoxne items did you get from those orbs?
By Shermansmith408 2025-11-12 23:13:13
I think the question for Hoxne Earring becomes: what mastery rank is it prevalent to wear it full time?
By fractalvoid 2025-11-12 23:17:09
i'm not sure i'll full time it, but around rank7 i think it starts becoming highly competitive for most WS sets unless you have a max +2 sortie earring or a capped Alabaster?

Zero repeats, unfortunately. I edited my post to reflect this.

I'm pretty sure the question for the earring will always be
"Will I actually get one before they raise the cap again?"

Managed to get 5 impossible thuds throughout our many orbs used tonight, but every single one was Dyna-D crystals. Sad!

you don't Dbox them to yourself?
By Felgarr 2025-11-13 07:12:19
you don't Dbox them to yourself?
Since I was aiming for Hoxne pieces and only 1 character in the group has it, there's no need to d-box it, because the other 5 members in a party don't have any Hoxne pieces.
I don't do dbox items, mostly for time savings, but my reasoning is that: Adding players to a Trove party where at least 1 character doesn't have an item is sufficient to make any drop appear in the pool. Obviously, I can't prove that this reduces collisions or creates the necessary degree of variance needed to make for an awesome Treasure Pool. However, it's very possible that when we see a "missing item" in the pool, that it's much more likely to be a Malignance drop, than a Hoxne piece.
I hope this makes sense. I know my experience is anecdotal, but I have several thousand Troves under my belt since 2018.

Imagine being one of the first two guys selling it to see the third sell for 900m...
By Shichishito 2025-11-13 11:44:19
The only chance of the first two beeing legit sellings between two unrelated accounts is someone was trying to sell it to themself for epeen purposes and someone else already had their AH bot configured for that occasion.
This game has too many players with seemingly unlimited gil supply, if a new item is rare enough it takes months or years till the price can settle at a reasonable range for regular players.
By K123 2025-11-13 11:51:04
I wondered that, but what about the 50m and 100m sale? Still screwed themselves.
By Vishwambhari 2025-11-13 12:04:26
I wondered that, but what about the 50m and 100m sale? Still screwed themselves. And clearly nobody has bought those 5 currently listed at 900m (or whatever they are asking) yet. I think it will eventually (probably sooner rather than later) settle in the 50-100 m range because everyone can do the event it’s tied to (which also happens to yield other high priced and otherwise hard to acquire gear). Also don’t forget some transactions happened outside of the AH. Some people have been shouting (or posting on here) to sell theirs, which I guess is fair as the lack of AH history helps retain value by creating an apparent shortage.
I’m not necessarily saying that the ah is being obviously manipulated, but I’d be a fool to trust that price history for both the prices and the estimated availability.

Considering the day before the same buyer bought an earring for 900m it's likely someone using a mule and the same 900m to manipulate the market value before it has a chance to establish itself. It was likely immediately back on the AH for like, 500-700 to see if someone took the bait.
The seller then bought the next one for 50m, and has basically zero AH history.

Kinparu is jp and briibe isn't, so it's at least a little believable.
Some of you idiots did think it's worth a billion, afterall

We don't Kinparu is a real player, he would buy it at that price to be first too
By K123 2025-11-14 19:42:13
Also just realised the neck has 10 more blue magic skill than jse neck+2 which is disappointing if it breaks any tiers, not sure if it does
By Nariont 2025-11-14 21:27:34
Itd just break an occu tier at best, and its already a stupid blink amount so it doesnt really matter. Otherwise 10 more hp on magic barrier, always nice. Would use jse for everything else

Wow, yeah, absolutely wild. I mean my mistake was assuming the playerbase isn't *that* hard up for a superitem, but wow I don't think we've had one of those jump to kclub levels.
By SimonSes 2025-11-15 04:18:01
It's worth much more than kclub (unless you play rng only or something), people are just uniformed or lacks imagination. If I could pick one for the rest of my playtime its easily the ammo.

I know a guy that back in 2019 made 15/15 WSD+10 valorous-herculean-chironic, all with manually bought Dark Matters. Took him more than a handful of billions to by all the DM necessary.
Don't underestimate how wiling some people are to go "here's my wallet give me the shiny".

I would not be surprised if someone made an addon that would auto-buy gil for them via their RMT when they run of out gil from using that ammo 24/7.
With the introduction of Impossible to Guage thuds, please post your Trove drops.
I've just done some mars orbs and got one ITG thud:
I also noticed a new annoyance with Mars orbs. My final 2 remaining chests where both brown (1 mimic and 1 formerly gold/rainbow chest that is now brown/ordinary). This is in-line with the update notes ...but it is so easy to pick the mimic in that situation.
