drop rates of 252 / 258 from GC crates

From Patch notes 5.10.3

•The drop rate for item rating 252 and 258 items along with Masterwork Crystals has been increased for Command Crates.

 

IDK about anyone else, But I've been in game for about 10-15 hrs a week since 5.10. Haven't yet got a piece of 252 or 258 drop from a GC crate. All my regular characters are/were already rank 300.

 

I got 2 Grand chance cubes in all that loot, I always check gear very carefully before disintegration..... - Amassed around 25K UCs from varying activities, usually use a GC booster and usually complete weeklies for the bonus, as well as conquest personal goals.....Got most classes into complete 258 gear sets.....

 

Something tells me it's either a very small drop-rate..... Or I'm just not trying hard enough.

 

Anyone seen any of this stuff? Did you get a free Unicorn as well?

I have 2 full stacks of UCs and another one at about 7k. Since 5 10 I've gotten a grand chance cube too. No 252/8 items. But j wouldnt use them if they did drop, so it doesn't matter to me.

I have like 3 guildies that said they got a drop from GC, before today's patch. I think only 1 of them got a useful piece of gear.

 

I wonder what the drop rate is now with 5.10.3.

Between all my characters I've gotten two pieces of 252 gear, and implant and an ear, both with accuracy. Yay for 350 UC's?

Since Ossus I got ONE 252 piece from a Tier 3 command crate during first or second week, nothing after.

Did got 3 grand chance cubes. (these comes even from tier 1 i think)
