10th Edition Artifact Chance

Why can't there be the same bonus multiplier for 10th edition arties that there is for AoAs?

The 10th arties are 'worse/more useless' but much harder to get comparatively.

Or even no multiplier but bump the percentage chance a bit, or something.
I was bored and was actually going to try to get one, but when I start out at a .003% chance, did it for quite awhile and ended up at a .042% chance that just seems a bit unreasonable.

On a related note, anyone have any thoughts on the most efficient way to 'farm' these? I just want a couple of those little UO globe statues basically.
Shrug.

The reason being is there currently isn't an accurate drop percentage on those that we know of at this point in time. The percentage is pretty much guessed, meaning it's either lower or higher than what OSI has intended it to be. We never gave much consideration to the drop chance on these items as no concern has come up, until now.

The percentage drop is intended to be the same as OSI's intended drop, after all, it is their 10th anniversary that created the drop. We will be getting a more accurate representation of the artifact drops in the future and will look into upping the percentage seeing as the items aren't overly spectacular and they promote hunting in the virtue dungeons.
