    Can you actually look at this drop rate (these are unfortunately not put into the api, so I can't even check if they are even dropping at all). The drop rate for the instructions seems to be incredibly low. And based on the actual reward from them, they really should not be this incredibly difficult to even find.

    I will absolutely look into the drop rate. Thanks for the suggestion! Issue #71036

    Thank you. I DO get these should not be dropping like rain obviously, but this feels just terribly low. Or that's intended. I don't know, I can't actually see how much they are dropping.

    I am considering this fixed, in that I now today am able to actually do 2 treasure hunts (the ones that come from drops from elves) as a key finally dropped that matched the instruction I currently had. And then an instruction dropped, of which I had a matching key already. Thank you!

    Its still a bit wonky. Last week i got several keys and instructions. Today i went in and dug up the daemon chest. Went to the passageway and clicked the stone on the wall and got the instructions and key from it. Currently i have all 7 keys and 4 out of 7 instructions. I spent the entire day playing in there chasing and killing the elves. I ended up getting a key i didnt have which rounded me out to 7. But could not get the last 3 instructions. Troll, faun and elf instructions. Not sure how random it is that they drop. I am trying to get them all so i can spend one day on stream digging them all up. So not sure how it works for the drops

    As of Saturday April 22 I have collected and dug up all 7 chests. So they are dropping just takes some time. Mainly they are dropping from the Elite Elves...mage, sharpshooter and fighters. So just takes a bit of time to find them and kill them over and over to get the drops.
