I've been doing the PQ's as often as I could for the last 3 days.  I was starting to get a full set of the better PQ gear but in the last 14 times I've done both SG and RW PQ's I have not gotten any of the better gear.  It's always the crap gear.  I've talked to several people in my guild and they said that was very extreme.  Most never go more than 2 or 3 PQ's between getting good gear.  I've never gotten the chest piece, weapon, any adornments either.  I've just recently come back to the game but I have to say, doing the same two events over and over and not getting anything but a minor AA boost sucks.  Has anyone else noticed this or do I just have the absolute worst luck on Earth?

Adornments, BP, and weapon are uncommon (not rare).  I've done the whole set on a few characters.  On my worst, ill-lucked character I think I went close to 100 times before I got my last piece.  He had gotten about 7 BPs before the weapon dropped.  On my best character, I think I got everything within a dozen tries.  That's just the nature of the random number generator.

On the other hand, I have never gotten the breastplate or weapon and ususally get a humming chest. No adornments and usually no shards either.

I absolutely detest this random chest thing. If we work hard and do what is expected of our class we should get an appropriate reward.

The loot is random and as for PQ some get it there first PQ and some get it 5+ months later thats random 14 tries is nothing mine took months

and I have even been screwed out of lootz at Storm Gorge this 1 is by far the worst and actually only Broken 1 giving 0 rewards at random

This is, unfortunately, the way it works. My most unlucky character, which is also my main, it took close to 100 tries to get the bp...and I never got the weapon at all. On my level 86 Necro, I got the bp on his fifth pq....Useless, or course, until he's 90, but that's one piece I will thankfully not have to grind for.
