FeityOPlast monthRight now, there is 20% chance for the drop from every elder guardian.
This would make obtain or duplicate trim/s more consistent, it also enables nice overlaps with kill Elder Guardian and obtain sponge.

I don’t see any reason whatsoever to do this specifically for monuments. Monuments are 48.8% in total for Tide, so they’re already viable for 2 Unique Armor Trims off Coast.
Changes to vanilla should have strong justification

I think most things modifying vanilla loot pools are just not a good idea

Tbf like, elder guardians are basically just glorified chests in this regard, if you're gonna make tide trim guaranteed it doesn't really make sense to make it guaranteed for elder guardians and not for chests on other structures, and that would kind of ruin the entire point of the goal, for any structure you need to be prepared to check and realise there's nothing around, monument is the same thing you're just killing a mob instead of opening a chest

I don't see killing Elder Guardians for unique trims only, as viable, unless it's final goal on the board and you already have coast trim.
For vanilla purposes, the 20% makes sense but draftout is a fast-pace game and the satisfying part is getting good overlaps done.
So I feel like this can potentially add an interesting line during a match you can't count on otherwise.
But I also agree the vanilla drops should not be messed with generally.

I can see this as well, but you make significant effort to kill it, whereas you can just open a chest immediately.

Thing is like, this is fair, it's nice to be able to walk into a structure knowing you have a guaranteed shot at a goal
That being said, if we just start arbitrarily adding guaranteed non-vanilla chances to whatever "feels right", it's gonna get out of hand quick, there isn't much argument for specifically elder guardian over for example, netherite from a bastion

It's just going to end up being kind of convoluted and not really sensible especially if you're gonna have a new player look up the wiki and see a 20% drop rate for trim yet in game it's actually guaranteed

I mean it’s a time investment sure but if you really want 2 trims, Coast + Monument are really good

Monument’s already technically better than Bridge, Treasure, Shipwreck, Desert Temple, Outpost and Fort for trims, and there’s a skill diff with how quickly you can kill the Elder Guardians. I object to the idea that Tide is irrelevant atm.
