Axi S3 does not drop

[MsAligned]

farmed for over 5 hours just the Axi level drops in the void, Marduk, Mithra, and Mot.  I got a couple on the first day of this event, none since.  have talked to some others farming, same problem.  .  I'm fairly good at farming this, lots of practice, Mithra and Mot, 20 minutes each run, Marduk, ~4 minutes, so 5 hours, lot of chances for an Axi S3, and that 5 hours, is just what I have been doing since getting all of the other relics I needed.  so, I feel like I've done my part, but, DE is not going to do any thing, so I guess I am not going to get the Boltor

As an alternative chance, maybe try the syndicate relic packs. You might get lucky.

Or just buy the parts since they're pretty cheap right now.

Marduk is the key. 

I was having a lot of difficulty farming axi s3 on the defense and survival.  I started to farm the sabotage (Marduk) and I was finally able to get a few.  It does take a lot of runs but my drop rate did end up at around 6.5%. (yes RNGesus was a little more kind to me)   It is very tedious and the least fun I have had farming.  I spent pretty much an entire day to get a few.  I was able to find a group to get the drop I wanted for rhino.  Again just do Marduk.  Solo is the way to go if your friends are not online.  I do not suggest you farm this mission with randoms.  It just does not end up going as smoothly.  From my experience it has been the best way to get the elusive axi S3.

Yeah, Marduk has better odds than Mot. Stick to speed-running Marduk repeatedly.

I've only found 2 thanks to work hours.

I have to agree that Marduk is the way to go to farm the Axi relics. The time required ss comparable to 5 waves of defence / 5 minute survival and can net you Axi or Neo relics.

Found 2 Neo R1 and 1 Axi S3 in a 2 hours farm yesterday.

My Mot run 40 60 40 40 got 0S3 2R1 0N6. I stopped farming after that. Coz I can earn enough plat in that 180Min to buy those relics If I play Void fissue. So I bought those unvaulted relics. Worst unvault ever, specially Axi S3.

I have 10 R1 and 7 S3, mostly from syndicate packs

[thor_sten]

I get a few of these from Aten (Void, Mobile Defense, T4). It's seemingly not such a big chance (6% compared to 12.5% or something like that), but you get to end the Mission in ~7 Minutes instead of working 20 Minutes for one chance.

I have been farming all week across all the various drop places.  Just now I finished a 1 hour MOT run.

Nothing

DE really needs to address this because the only thing with a worse drop rate is Harrow systems (still working on that as well). 

So, I'm looking at about 8/hrs/day for 5 days for consistent farming.  Nothing.  I'm getting pretty frustrated.  I had the first three parts in a few hours on first day.  Normal drop rates.  AXI S3 is seriously broken.

As mentioned before, Mot isn't the best spot for Axi. Marduk

[Zi-Sui]

What? So previously vaulted stuff is dropping again, and only on the void? I guess I should start reading patch notes or something xD

[Orgoon]

Oh it does drop. I've seen one in a YouTube video.

Just search your relic and then for the highest drop chance. 

[Signs]

How long is a Marduk? I've been doing Aten since I can finish in 5 minutes and it's the same drop chance as Marduk.

Last night I farmed Marduk doing 6 minute speed runs.  5 hours, one drop.  That isn't a rare drop, that's unobtainium. 

What I'm curious about is hows the drop rate for people that have both Nyx and Rhino Prime.

[MrMysticalPotato]

It does drop. That is all.

Marduk sucks, do Mot instead.

I got Marduk speed runs down to under 5 minutes.  The longest wait is the two consoles you have to hack, and the timer for extraction.  I had a higher drop rate for the target relic than any other missions.

Thanks for all the help.  Finally got Nyx & Rhino finished a few days ago.
