Harbingers no longer drop fracturing shards after 3.25.1

Before the update I would average a fracturing shard drop at LEAST every 5 maps, after the patch I have gone 70+ maps without a single fracturing shard. I mentioned this in a streamer's chat and 3 people instantly replied to me confirming my suspicions.

Harbingers are fine, you are just on a bad streak. I made two full Fracturing Orbs since Patch (about 35 Maps) and the Market Prices do not suggest Shard drops have declined. Streamer chat replies are no form of reliable evidence, the fact that you found three people, who also feel like drops have declined is no proof at all.

Your decline in drops is statistically unlikely, but i would say that shard drops once per 5 maps is allready quite lucky to begin with. My quota is more like one Set of drops per 12 Maps. I also had streaks of Maps without drops of up to 30 Maps before patch and then i had back to back drops in maps.

Also this is allready your second thread and fourth post about this without laying out further evidence for your claim. Maybe farm More Harbingers and post less and you will find a shard.

Ran 5 maps this morning and found 4 shards. They drop
Didn’t play much yesterday but got 8 in one T17 map. Should be fine
Today and yesterday, 60 maps, no frac shards. They just stopped.
