1. Drop rates are supposed to be low.
2. Your sample is far *FAR* too small to be statistically valid. Get enough kills to get a hundred drops and then examine the distribution.

Hm.. probably trolling, but if you want us to listen then provide a statistically significant sample with the exact number of kills as well as recipes you receive.
I'm thinking he just forgot to use the sarcasm font.
Right???

Drop rates are low which has been discussed in extravagant detail in another thread and the matter is being addressed. However, I think this is nothing more than finding a data set that conveniently fits an already-established perception of the game.|

Oh boy, I'm starting to sound like Synapse!
Here I thought you marketeers were going to be pushovers ha. I like the no BS around these parts.
So anyway, I never really payed attention to drop rates until this occured so I don't have bunch of data to throw down. Yeah a little sarcasm in the OP but 5 to 1 is a big difference. It takes a lot of time to generate numbers for data on PvP kill/recipe ratios, and at some point in a couple of months I will, but smaller numbers cannot be completely discounted. Had The numbers been 5/5, 5/4 or 5/3 I would not have mentioned anything but 5/1 is off in any scenario.
Also, part of me enjoys the 10 billion in earnings from low/inconsistant drop rates and milking the market, but it can also be frustrating when one toon is racking up the good stuff while another toon is racking up common salvage.
Thanks for reading!

P.S., Let's not forget that the current issue with PvE drop rates could also be affecting PvP drop rates as well.
