Question Thurgadin Mines - Lesser Tar Goos and Coldain Heads?

So I was bored the other night and chatting with a friend, and I decided I would murder the lesser tar goos that show up in the mines under Thurgadin. I used to do it occasionally back on live for Coldain heads. If I was lucky, I would get one in four kills, usually one in eight or nine. Rest of the time was rarely the random Coldain or Giant beards, or mostly nothing. I know on live they eventually nerfed the tar goo drop of Coldain Heads to be much more rare (I think might have been around early to mid Luclin).

However, after around 22 kills (I eventually started taking screenshots of each kill to keep track, but only after the first like, six or so), I have yet to receive...anything from the lesser tar goos.

They should drop:

Loot:
Uncommon: Coldain Head
Rare: Woven Frost Giant Beard
Ultra Rare: Braided Beard of the Coldain

Wait a sec - the tar goos in Thurg drop coldain heads when killed - is there a dwarf faction hit for killing them? How rare are the heads?
Nope, no hits of any kind if I recall correctly. From the 20 or so I killed, I think I got 1 or 2 heads.

Is this just a case of RNG hate, or does this not work right here? No heads, no beards, not a thing.

EDIT: Probably should have put this in the bugs section.

Spend some time killing things in the mines of Thurgadin. As of March 9th, they are still dropping coldain heads, and give no faction hit when killed. They also drop the heads more commonly than dwarves do.
