Is it just a chance those designs drop off of nameds or are they supposed to drop one? Have killed Oakstout, he didnt drop any...still searching, but I am assuming at this point the rate is rather low for them to start with.
It's not a guaranteed drop, but it's not too rare either. It's hard to give an accurate time estimate because everyone plays with such varying amounts in the Lost Grove. But I would guess, for just Section 1, you'd probably find 1 or 2 Designs a week at least, maybe more? Depends how often you're going through and knocking out all of the Elites.
This amount would obviously increase as more Sections are added as additional Sections will also have their own Designs and such.
Within first ~12 hours, about 25 players have already found at least one Design.
I can't even get past the Bandit Camp site in the Varidian Meadows, the one straight after you finish the Fungus Grove.
I would suggest checking out the various battling guides that have been written to see how you can improve your team or asking in the appropriate forums about specific issues that you're encountering so other players can help you.

And out of those designs, how many of them are the battle-mage designs? I have been killing every elite/named as soon as I can....i only have 2 of the battlemage designs, which seems to be the most popular. Nothing from named or elites yet. Seems pretty rare to me atm or RNG just hates me again lol.
I mean, 1 or 2 designs a week, sounds rare but then again, I play a ton.
Also speaking of next section, there will be an increase to the ores I hope? Having to split preference on what I need to use my ores on, and how nodes spawn, I do hope there will be a lot more in the next section, considering the Iron it takes just for a cloak at the moment...I need my vinethorns up first lol.
Love love love this idea tho, I like being able to craft stuff :D

Being able to craft avatar items is top, but a warning to all of you out there who haven't gotten a design yet, they're expensive! Not in money-gold, but in ores and powders and stuff.
It'll take a lot of saving up just to make one, so be choosy when you start getting your designs!

Only a handful. I balanced the Nightfall drops by frequency of the enemies - so they should pretty much be well balanced. I will continue to monitor and make further adjustments as needed.
And yes, the next section will provide a much bigger opportunity for finding ores.

Huzzah! Not only am I super excited to craft things, but I've been stalled on acquiring the Damaged Manikins ever since the Guardian battle. Being able to get them from the... more killable Named is going to be a huge boost to morale. XD Thanks, Krin!
