The drop rates are not that far away from 0,5% / 1% at the moment and never were. This is working "as intended", this item takes AGES to drop.

Edit :
As of an unidentified patch, the droprate got brought to some VERY higher value. Expect a quick drop.

Commentaire de Insidious

This thing has a horrible droprate. You'll be killing quite a few if you're not lucky enough.

Commentaire de 24272

OMFG the droprate is insane, I'll never get this thing...

Commentaire de Cicero

68 kills of the Ferocious and Cave Yetis later, it finally dropped. Went up about 1/3rd of a level at 32 just from killing all the Yetis.

Commentaire de 5104

Got it after about 30 kills. The drop-rate is really, really low, but not as low as what it says. A drop rate or .01 is close to being that of a World drop, which happens almost never.

Commentaire de 56415

I got it in 10 kills....lucky? I'm guessing so!

Commentaire de tundra

lol i am from my first loot from cave yeti lvl 30 and i am 33 :P

Commentaire de katbrat

Wow! First kill and the rod dropped!

Commentaire de 47160

After clearing this whole place 5 times i decided to leave as i thought it was bugged or something and dropped on the last yeti i came to ^^ phew

Commentaire de 74259

huh! i got it off of the first mountain yeti i killed

Commentaire de 71469

The world baddest drop rate ever :(
i had killed more than 100 of them still cant get it
in the end i gave up lol

Commentaire de 81560

Took me about 25-30 minutes to grind out the rod.

Commentaire de 85037

i started this at lvl 32 and 1/4 by the time i abonded it i was lvl 33 and 2k xp. i never got rod, obviously. i hope you have better luck getting it than i did.

Commentaire de 59030

i have killn about 200 soon and dont get it =(
its to low drop rate on it for me like 0.0

Commentaire de ninjasuperspy

This drop rate is insanely low. If it wasn't for the mithril and iron in this cave I would have abandoned this quest in a heartbeat. I mean one of the Yetis dropped the Crystalpine Stinger for me, and my first thought was "Dang, not the rod."

Commentaire de 84183

Has a VERY low drop rate - but I got lucky this time through the quest (about my 6th time doing it), it dropped off the 5th or 6th Cave Yeti I killed.

Commentaire de torash

I think i was lucky to get in on 3rd kill

Commentaire de 46881

Just did the quest, dropped on the 8th yeti killed. The drop rate for the rod is in all likelyhood much higher than is stated on the webpage, but still very low. Probably still less than a 5-10% rate. Teaming up with someone will cut the time by a lot.

Commentaire de 35921

Did it with a 70 helping. 63 kills later... Only plus side was I leveled my weapons and mining.

Commentaire de Dobie

Did this quest forever ago, took me like 3 hours. Was leveling my warlock... picked up the quest at some point and I was running by and a yeti aggro'd on me... killed it... theres the rod >.> stupid quest.

Commentaire de 123379

Amazingly, this dropped on the first yeti I killed o_O

Commentaire de Meera

Got mines after 5 kills.

Commentaire de 137719

But then you have a reason to grind ;)

Commentaire de Garrett

Similar to others above me, this took only 3 kills. After reading the first few comments I was tucking in for a long night but it dropped straight away...

It's either been changed recently or I am lucky, either way - there is hope! :-)

Commentaire de zeeleex

second drop i get it ^^

Commentaire de 141052

advice on the drop rates for the rod: it's really unpredictable. with my shammy, i got it after 10 kills. with my priest, the other night i killed yeti for 2 hours didn't get it, logged out. this morning on the second kill i got the rod. both times i got it, i was the only one in the cave. just have time to give to this quest.

Commentaire de 28922

I've been farming here for 30 minutes, still no drop. However, being a skinner and miner I can expect much profit from this.
At level 31, I get about 20k xp/hour in here...

Commentaire de Tigraine

I've been killing Yetis for half an hour and haven't seen it drop till now.
The drop chance is beyond good and evil!

Commentaire de 102630

Hours of grinding and no drop; maxed out skinning, made many stacks of Medium Leather and quite a few of Heavy Leather, plus hides. Will try again later, but I believe there might a glitch with this quest, some people mentioned relogging repeatedly to get the rod to drop?

Commentaire de Daco

Probably just luck, but logging seemed to help.

After 37 kills (26 cave yeti, 11 ferocious), I logged out while still in the cave and immediately logged back in. First yeti killed after doing this dropped the rod. Again probably luck but maybe worth a try.

Commentaire de 153455

Lol, I guess I got lucky, Dropped off the Second Yeti I killed. =)

Commentaire de 95165

I was Really lucky when i did this quest! i got mine on 3rd drop!

Commentaire de 166249

Helcular's Rod droped off the first yetti i killed so it cant be that hard to get it.

Commentaire de 152994

Took me some long to drop , i mean , VERY long , but 203 xp / kill , so i cant complain

Commentaire de 111116_

I'm "that guy."

First kill.

Commentaire de 84194

lolz i got it 4th kill

Commentaire de nusmesa

5-6th kill.

Commentaire de Senso851

Took me 15 min as a warrior lvl 29

Commentaire de 147929

it only took like 25-30 yetis for me to get it and i enjoyed the money i got for all the med-heavy leather very nice. not a bad grind with rested xp... meh.

Commentaire de 224263

This is a great oppurtunity to get heavy leather and medium leather and gaining skill in skinning :D

Commentaire de 238142

Killed 16 mobs to get the drop - but quite a decent xp quest :D

Commentaire de 269847

Dropped after 6 kills, guess I was lucky :P

Commentaire de 277665

I just got it on my first drop. Either they improved the rate or I'm really lucky :D

Commentaire de 136371

Got it in 5 kills as of 1/5/08

Commentaire de 331395

Took me 32 kills, but I agree that it doesn't seem like the drop rate is nearly as bad as it used to be.

Commentaire de Eleora

7% drop rate 28/03/09. Slightly better than it used to be but still takes a good while. Only killed the yetis for this quest :)

Commentaire de Darthdoody

Drop happened quite quick for me, I got it after 9 kills, perhaps I was lucky, or drop rate has been altered too higher as of patch 3.0.9

Commentaire de 418011

I got the quest went to the cave, killed one yeti, then went to the second one, Helcular's Rod dropped haha.

Commentaire de 402412

Well it took me about 30 to kill, but the good thing about killing them is that they are standing relatively single, so you usually don't have to face more than one of them.

Commentaire de 456916

Another of of Blizzard's wonderul drop rates. Did the quest today on my 30 Blood Elf priest and it took 17 kills to get the rod to drop.

Last time I did it was on my Undead Mage and got it seriously on the first drop. I honestly think that the Blizzard game masters are sitting somewhere laughing at us doing the quests with unpredictable drop rates, or maybe I am just paranoid. LOL FOR THE HORDE-----DEATH TO THE ALLIANCE---(especially humans)

Commentaire de sludgebomb

I guess I got lucky here as it only took me 7 mobs to pick it up. Although I remember it took me about 40 spiders to get the ichor in another quest. The luck seems to be well spread out :)

Commentaire de 545505

Just did it on my alt dropped on the second kill guess they most have Change the drop rate

Commentaire de Jaedaddy

Must have got lucky guys, took me 20+ kills just now :-(

Commentaire de 353133

I did it myself in 10 min, on my lvl 29 pala

Commentaire de 462722

I wouldn't touch it...

Commentaire de Rkane

6 kills on a 31 paladin, dropped off the first ferocious yeti i killed.
