    I've killed around 30 child zombies (yes it was child zombies) in the past 12 hours. No dolls. So, this kinda feels like toadstools all over again. I also attempted to farm these child zombies when the dolls were supposedly, initially released. Of course, the dolls and/or looting of the dolls was bugged. And, of course, I killed far more than 30 before we found out about that. :)

    When the toadstools came out, I killed something like 200 of the shrooms. 0 toadstools dropped. I put in a bug report about it. I was assured that it was no bug, but, instead RNG just hating me. While I was not looting toadstools, I think my guildies looted around 40ish of them? It was an obnoxiously high number vs my 0 in a much shorter time frame than I actually used up hunting for these elusive stools of mushroom kind.

    To this day, I have never looted a toadstool. <-- not a joke

    Anyway, dolls don't seem to be dropping for me.

    The ONLY reason I'm even pushing this, is because once upon a time, my character was bugged (really early on, like, years ago) and I was unable to get normal loot drops. This went on for a well over a month. @Chris Do you remember that? Because you did something to my character and then it all normalized again.

    I'd be happy to test this more thoroughly but finding a good concentration of these child zombies seems to be nearly impossible.

    Actually, Id be more than happy to kill a few thousand of them under dev supervision just to see if one drops, ever, for me. Same goes for the mushrooms.

    /end rant

    This is the cowbell all over again for me, multiple zones, killed many a zombie, nada - oh well, being rare is good. Just wish I knew if it was just off the ones holding a doll, child ones, or doesnt matter.

    @Applerust The only time I've gotten a toadstool from a mushroom is from the boss in the mushroom arena in Norgard Fens - FYI.

    Has Anyone seen an aether orb drop off an aether lich? Killed several of the liches last night and.... nothing!

    I'm fine if its a rare drop but the fact that they didn't mention fixing it in the patch note and they did mention fixing the creepy dolls makes me nervous.

    Still trying to find a damn creepy doll...

    I got 3 toadstools from Blood River Outskirts, back when it used to be the gold farming capital of Novia, but then they nerfed that..., :(

    Rare is good. Impossible is not good.

    I hear ya. I'm telling you though. Everyone I was on discord with while I was trying to get one when they came out.. All I kept hearing was "Hey, I got another Toadstool, you want it?" my reply "No! I want to loot my own!". I've never looted one from a big mushroom either.

    I understand - that's why I wanted one to drop for me also - kinda like with mounted trophies - I'd really like to buy a phoenix head or 2 - but I'm still waiting for 1 to drop for me personally .. that way when I put it up on the wall, I'll remember it more fondly :)

    Hit me up in game if you want to kill a few waves of mushrooms and you can have whatever drops :)

    So, holding the doll makes your avatar smaller?
