I'm looking for a bat dress, and I'm looking to mostly solo these missions. Getting help only from occasional volunteers.

My question is, which mission is better to get the Dress? Sliab Cuilin seems to be easier with fixed spawn patterns, but Crag Cow may be easier due to the Crag Cow not having as much Passive Defenses.

Also, is the drop rate for Bat Dresses higher in one shadow mission than another?

Thanks!

I think that it is all down to luck.
Maybe you can rotate missions sometimes so that you won't get bored of any of them.

Silab Cuilin... becausem besides the revenger cylinder, selling the snow golem crystals/mining the rocks can return some money to you.

As far as I'm aware bat dress only drops in Sliab Cuilin.

After doing the mission many thousands of times I'd say that the drop rate is slightly lower than 0.1% (1 in 1000), the only rarer chest drop in that mission than it is the snow golem crystal ironically.

That was the point. I READ BLIND GIRL... ONCE AGAIN. (Don't worry I still love you.. ;~;.)

And Silab Cuilin because it can bring back some profits from the Snow golems and the cylinder as mentioned above. Crag Cow is just not worth the grind to me, because the spamming of it seems unclear of the end chest reward. (As it was editted by the public player themself, whoever that is.)
I was wondeirng this too, but it is guranteed you get it from Silab, and not Crag Cow end chest yet, but rare drop of Silab.

I obtained one from Stones, and I never obtained one from the cow.

So go with stones :D

Thanks for the answers; I almost got lured into Cows since the monsters were a lot weaker x3
