I have 43 hour 28 minutes played, 407 bounties, 183 rifts, haven't even seen a bad primal yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They don't drop until you've got an account flag for completing GR 70 SOLO - groups don't trigger the flag. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From https://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/20529333/patch-250-ptr-notes-3-10-2017#items: General Primal Ancient Items Legendary and Set items will now have a chance to roll as Primal Ancient These items are much more rare than Ancient items and have perfect Ancient-level stats on all affixes, including the item’s Legendary Power Note: Primal Ancients will only begin dropping after a character on the player’s account has reached Greater Rift 70 Solo There are separate unlocks for normal and Hardcore characters, as well as Seasonal and non-Seasonal characters The stats on these items will be tailored to the character class you are playing when the item first drops Primal Ancient items salvage into 15 Forgotten Souls Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arkpit 101 Report post Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) So, first the facts of how a Primal is rolled for: On 2017-07-25 at 4:55 PM, MrEdren said: They don't drop until you've got an account flag for completing GR 70 SOLO - groups don't trigger the flag. Any set/legendary item have a 10% chance to become ancient. After an item is successful in becoming an ancient one it now makes a second roll and the ancient item have a 10% chance to become Primal. So in other words, for each individual set/legendary item: 1 in 10 becomes ancient 1 in 100 becomes primal As far as I know there is no "bad luck" mechanic in Diablo 3 so it's a 1 in 100 odds every roll for the item.

Hrm those odds aren't that bad, I thought the primal chance was much much lowers. Albeit this season I'm still a couple rifts away from 70 solo, can't get a couple needed items to drop :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
