My party broke the mask off twice, but we didn't get it. I'm confused. The second time I broke it off. We all saw it fall. What's going on?

Did it fall and become an unlootable essence with a question mark over it until the boss died? That's how all the other breakoffs work.

you need to pick it up instead of letting it auto-pick up after the battle I believe, otherwise it does a roulette.

It did fall with the question mark above it and we picked it up. I didn't let it auto-pick. I grabbed it like I do everything. We knocked it off twice and grabbed it.

Breaking the mask off in The Fleeing Gnoll King does not guarantee you a mask drop. It's like breaking off the Blood Prince's arm: you don't always get Ulchas's Holy Sword, or Vampire Spear. It just gives you an extra drop.

I've noticed that the mask is given as a regular random drop, regardless of if you broke it off or not.
Instead, the break off give you the mane.
Of all the times that I ran that battle, we broke the mask 3 times, yet there were many times where someone got the mask and we hadn't broken it off.
And strangely, the only times I got the mane was when we broke off the mask.
So I'm thinking the loot got mixed, and the break off mask is in the "regular drops" section of his loot table.

AFAIK the mask is a random chance drop like BP's vampire spear, but I think (read: am wildly guessing) that breaking the mask may increase the drop chance of it.
The Hero Mane is the actual drop you get from breaking the mask off in Fleeing Gnoll King.

How many times did it take you to get the mask. I've tried like 15 times and I keep getting the mane when I break it off.

Okay nevermind. I think it's a bug or something. I grabbed all four items from the wisps and it never said I got the mask. It didn't even show up as bonus during the mission. When I left the game and checked my inv I had the mask. I then clicked N to see the battle list and I received the bonus points for the mask even though it didn't tell me I did in the game.

its a random drop.
the break off is only meant for completing the bonus mission or for titles.
for example: blood prince break off is random
some are fixed such as, white tyrant. its break off will always give savage eye and gnoll chieftain will always give crimson rage helm
