I know the random number generator can be a cruel mistress alot of times, but I recently started cultural smithing on my high-elf and I've been having no issues foraging morning dews, however I've cleared the faerie camp in LFay about 20-30 times over the last few weeks and haven't seen a single morning dew drop.

As I said, totally understand that I may just be getting the short end of the RNG stick, but that's about 200-300 faeries with no drop.

Wiki lists both Courtiers and Maidens as confirmed droppers, and the rest of the faeries as suspected droppers.

Any confirmation that these are dropping?

I've farmed them for morning dews, iirc I was getting about 1 dew per clear. no drops in 20-30 clears seems low, but could just be bad luck. pretty sure i've seen a morning dew drop from them since the last patch, but I just killed them once or twice.

That thread doesn't really answer the question though, just alot of speculation without references.

Magelo (while not a perfect reference for classic info) and even our own wiki list a reasonably high drop rate for this item (4-6% on each mob)
