The higher level your kit is the more chance it has of being Dragonforged but other than that yeh it's just probability. You could do what some have suggested further down and fight the Drake in the woods until he's nearly dead, then bolt until you're out of range and save the game. When you go back and beat him, if none of your kit gets Dragonforged, just reload your save and try again. This means you only have to land a few quick hits on him each reload and you can effectively keep trying until something works for you.
