Did they lower drop rate on cubes

I've just been wondering this because when I went bossing before I would get at least 1 or 2 cubes total out of all the bosses I went to without any kind of 2x or drop rate increase familiar but now after a week of doing the same bosses every day with a spider familiar I haven't gotten 1 cube. Have I just been unlucky or has any one else noticed this?

@KrystiCakes: I guess that's possible, but as far as I know the only thing that affects it is your mining/herbalism level.
I'll probably look more into it and see what I can find out later just to be sure.

[quote=KrystiCakes]I've been wondering something... does your fatigue affect the outcome of mining/digging uber veins/plants?

It might just be random luck, but it seems like when my fatigue is really low I get more "successes" (happy faces) where as when it's maxed it almost always seems to fail (sad face).[/quote] Nah, I don't think it affects the outcome, at least it never did before when I was looking for cubes from veins/plants

@thebaldaran Yeah, I haven't been getting many note worthy things from veins/plants lately either
Well this sucks

I've been experiencing this with mining the mysterious veins/herbs too. Every 5 or so I would find a cube or a crafting item such as a cubic blade, but now, it takes at the very least 15 for something noteworthy to show up. The bosses drop a lot less for me as well. Getting cube fragments is no problem, but I kill Easy Magnus, Hilla x2, Easy Ark, all 4 RA bosses, Normal Von Leon and occasionally Zakum daily (Easy Magnus being twice a week). Since BT came out, I've gotten 2 which I let my friend have during RA.
