You mean Hinekora's Lock drop rate nerfed, right? (I'm still seeing lock medallions drop.) If so, that's an extremely powerful item. The drop rate def needs to be nerfed before temple goes core.

Well at least you had a temple. Try building one from scratch now. Pretty much impossible.

I'm still getting a lot. Are you farming other rooms?

72 rooms setup and got only 1 my chain got destroyed last night
so my temple got bricked last week and i started from fresh. i noticed that my new temple with fewer rooms had more lock drops, but as i approached 30 to 40 rooms, my lock drop rate decreased significantly even though i had more rooms potentially dropping medalions.

hope this helps
iv noticed the same thing iv got only like 20 rooms and 4 lvl 3 spy masters and no locks have dropped for me in like 3 runs, and my small temple is getting smaller now
Lock sustain is so RNG it's extremely infuriating. 10 spymasters, 4 commanders, 2 golems, 3 corruption halls @ lvl III, 72+ rooms.

And yet... sometimes no locks drop in a run, sometimes one or two. Other times (much rarer), I get so many I have locks in all 6 medallion slots and STILL locks are dropping.

Just lost almost 20 rooms to a bad string of runs. Nothing I could do about it at all. That's the frustrating part; you lose your agency.

Worse, the progression in the temple is not linear, so the closer you get to a completed build, the more losing rooms hurts you.
