I doubt that he or any other dev can talk about it. Else we would probably ask them for the general dropchance from missions etc.
That’s there already.
There is just long standing bug when you open the AH the category, while being selected, doesn’t reflect into sub category. Just reselect “agent” and subtypes appears.
Or write “dos” in search field.
imho the droprate is something about 1%
It has been said long before release that All agents are available as drops. Only a limited number can be found in boosters.
That’s the assumption that fits for ballpark estimates. Not something that one could consider halfway exact.
If I ever have the time or interest I should organize some drop research.
And, since the agents are not actually NEEDED, no one NEED spend any money at all on the agent system.

That is not actually true, if you don’t play the agents game you lose the buffs se YES, the agents are VERY NEEDED

I looked at the community spreadsheet and the agent I had only been seen as a drop and the only thing I heard was “community have to discover where to get the agents”.
The community spreadsheet is a work in progress, and with the droprates that will take a while before it is 100% accurate, so i wouldnt use that as a source for the full picture.
It was said both on stream and on discord a few times that ALL agents will be available for free. I realize not everyone watch either of these two sources, so not trying to blame people of anything here.
A List of what has been said, and found out.
- Some Agents drop in specific Zones from Sabotage and Action missions; Solomon Island, Egypt, Transylvania, Tokyo.
- The Agents are not Mission specific, and different maps, for each zone, drops the same Agents (KM excluded)
- Certain Agents drop from lvl 50 content; Regional Lair Bosses (Blue chest), Dungeons (Blue boss 6 chest), Scenarioes (any chest) and Raids (i assume the weekly chest).
- Some Agents are additionally available from Boosters (which will be listed on the Booster)
- Booster items/Agents can be exchanged for Hexcoins to buy Gear Packs, Random Agent or Resources. (I assume same agetns as in the Booster and nothing more)
- Booster items are Character Bound.
- Non-Booster Agents and Gear can be sold for Anima Shards at a vendor, and are Tradable.

“community have to discover where to get the agents”
This statement was made when someone asked if the devs could reveal where some of the Agents dropped in more detail.
Because I want to, I can’t say no to +7% +3,5% damage!
Well since I can do one dungeon on weekdays if I am LUCKY (queue is ridiculus) and in that dungeon we need to down the endboss which happends maybe? 50% of the time on E5+ and it has to be a blue chest with an agent. You will also end up in farming groups which doesn’t do the hard bosses. I don’t see this happening really.
Same with lair maybe one each evening and there are usually 1 maybe two blue which insanly low droprate for an agent.
I also to the big bosses, usually 10-20 per week sometimes more and I usually 1 or 2 blue chests at the end which also has a ridiculus droprate. We did 26 bosses this sunday, 1 agent dropped.
…and NO I’m not gonna quest, I am done with questing until s2. I have been here since TSW pre-launch, I am done with questing.
The only feedback I’d have is I’m at T3 missions and the distillates are a waste of my life. I’d rather get nothing as a reward because at least then I wouldn’t have to delete them…
we have mod for that, once again fixing devteam decisions

Bad thing is, it’s not much better for T5 missions. I mean you need to work for them. It’s far beyond “just one click”. You need many more low missions just to get resources. They are rare and long, you can’t do many of them in a day. Not to mention only very few rare agents can even run them. And yet all you get is 1k “purple” distillates.
Even 4k would be “yay, I can spend 5mins less in dung” but at least it would not feel like an insult and one would be more inclined to gather resources for half a day to run those. But no, 1k it is. With 40% chance to get them ofc.
Unlike Han Solo, I want them to tell me my chances.
For the love of god, make the text in the missions bigger…or adjustable…
also the mission tab while your at it
Well, I’m feeling like some reddit bot, but the mod actually does even that
/setoption AgentTweaks_UIScale 120
i will try it! your awesome;)
As my level 13 agent got incapacitated helping a lady find her cat, for 15 minutes, I guess I need the mod…
hmm i installed it, used the command to make it bigger, now pressing “p” no longer brings up the agent screen
Well if you’ve played D&D you realize how quickly a housecat can kill a commoner.
