Are magical pieces really drops from monsters?

In event notes it says:
"You can receive Grade 1 Magical Pieces (in) several ways"
followed by
"By defeating monsters at or above your level"

...I nee Nexon are as unclear as always...

I assume the drop chance is not infinitesimal?
because I tried with and without my event's main character and with and without CP gear. the mob is normal and awful and I got zero magical pieces (but a ton of useless VIP coupons, seriously, these things come INSTEAD of whatever it is I'm trying to get EVERY SINGLE TIME and I seriously hate them)

Is CP gear effective?
Can I get it on alts too?
Does it even work at all? (did anyone get a magical piece from killing mob?)
And if it is, is the drop chance infinitesimal?

Tnx in advance for everyone's replaies

    Not really

    If the mobs are normal or above, no. If they are weak/weakest and you can make them normal+, yes.

    Can I get it on alts too?

    I don't think so.

    Does it even work at all? (did anyone get a magical piece from killing mob?)

    Yes, I got multiple of them already.

    And if it is, is the drop chance infinitesimal?

    Yes.


    Tnx in advance for everyone's replies

    Yes, they do drop from monsters. And, the drop rate isn't that low. Hit the Kitchen Dungeon.

    Nop. Can't get. Other people get, but I can't. Mabinogi hates me.

    Just keep killing monsters. If you have low CP or CP gear/tendering potion, Saga 1 Ep 4 works well.

    All baltane missions are set to be at least even to your CP, so every kill is a drop chance. However in 30 minutes of Nowhere to Run elite I only had 5 pieces drop and literally hundreds of VIP tickets

    Using the Royal Caviar recipe in the kitchen dungeon, I usually get enough to combine into one Grade 5 piece as well as a couple extra leftover per full duration run. I think my total kill count per run is somewhere around 2,500.

    That being said, the drop rate for anything good from these Grade 5 pieces is abysmal... I've gotten some useless speed walk or gathering potion from nearly every single one. Nexon pls give boat.

    So like... has anyone seen a boat? I haven't seen one on Nao's auction board so far. The rewards from these pieces really suck.
