Fragments of Power Chance of Harvesting?

Conan Exiles PlayStation Discussion

Game mode: [Online PvE Official #3731]
Problem: [Bug | Performance | Misc??]
Region: [Unnamed City]

UPDATE: I’ve re-watched the Vaniverse video & I obviously had a moment of synaptic flatulence: the Relic Hunter named bosses only drop the Heart of the Hero and it seems the Scorpion boss does not drop F of P at all, just a key, etc.
So now I’ll have to try my skill against the Skeleton Beast boss & the Bat boss.

Alrighty, I am excited by the possibility of harvesting the new Fragments of Power to gain additional permanent feat points as there are still several skills I would like to learn to expand my solo PvE enjoyment of the game. I’ve reset my feats about 4 times with this character in the past 4-5 months as I found named thralls that could make some items already, etc. I did some research on helpful YouTube videos from Vaniverse & Firespark, etc. and it seems getting the F of P was straight forward.

My main base is at the bottom end of E8, just above the Unnamed City, so I decided I need to get some F of P. Last night I journeyed into D7-6 and killed the Scorpion Boss, I harvested his carcass, skeleton key opened chest… legendary axe showed but disappeared & was not in my inventory WTF?.. then I went on to kill 3 of the Relic Hunter named boss characters (and several RH NPCs) and looted plus skinned them all. I also entered the Archivist’s chamber again & interacted with the scroll wall, just to make sure.
Problem: NONE of the 4 (mini)bosses I killed dropped any Fragments of Power, yet my understanding was that those would all definitely drop the F of P and assorted other goodies with occasional legendary stuff.
Question: can someone clarify exactly what is the chance of harvesting F of P for feat points when killing RH bosses, mini bosses & the big bosses in the Unnamed City. This is a definite point of interest for me.

Steps on how to reproduce issue:

  1. Kill Relic Hunter named bosses & mini bosses in Unnamed City.
  2. Loot & harvest their cold, still corpses.
  3. Find NO Fragments of Power out of 4 tries.
  4. Seek help on the Forum…

Unfortunately, the ones you killed do not drop the fragments. There is a rather large red dragon in the spawning pools, a Wight boss in the SW corner, a skeleton boss just down the paved stone road from the Warmaster, and a white bat in the Aviary. They drop every time.

Thanks for that @speedice - I’d realized my mistake in re-watching the video and it seems the scorpion boss who doesn’t drop F of P is the one Vaniverse mentions but doesn’t name outright.
I’m guessing the red dragon will be tough to solo, even with a good thrall or pet. Might need to use the healing arrow idea.

I get 100% from the skeletons,Serpentman,and wight bosses. I’ve found two different skele bosses. I’ll not spoil their locations. Not yet found the bat but I will. The idea of getting 5 per run is awesome. I’m hoping there are more.

F.O.P is nothing! Thnx so much funcom for the real surprises that me & my clansmen discovered hiding in this new update. But pls!! Fix the problems w/ the Even log & No Ownership.

I also found a second skeleton across from the Warmaster, and a Serpentman boss near the western entrance. I passed through the city with Spinas and collected 8 fragments before I had to leave. By the time you make the circuit, they’ve re-spawned.

The Serpentman is by far the easiest. The bat & Wight aren’t very hard. The dragon is easier than I thought it should be. I think the two skeletons are the hardest, because they wield star metal swords, and their attacks are sweeping. They also have skeleton helpers that are just annoying.

They also change aggro easily making it hard to keep them on your thrall.

Thanks @Huzzah, I took out the Skeleton Beast boss for 1 F of P then left for a week. Try further adventures again Friday.
