When there’s rng ivolved everyone always thinks there’s some type of conspiracy involved with the drop rates. That’s just how it is. Sometimes you can grind all day & receive squat, sometimes you’re gonna get multiple of what you’re looking for within the first hour. ????

RNG is RNG.

That said, it makes it hard to see if it is working properly.

 

Reminds me of a 1 in 2000 chance drop at Galleon mount in wow. It was super rare and no one got one for a long time.

Took a unified player effort to show 12k drop chances and 0 items before they fixed it.

RNG is RNG but Kama, T10, 5 Luck, 4800Knowledge and 4 hours of drop scrolls. Approx 6000 kills @ Hexe no Witch Earring and approx 20 ARS. I know RNG is RNG but i have grinded @ Hexe for about 300 hours avg. 1-2 witch an hour and avg 6-12 ARS. Either I have good RNG or somethings off.

Killed enough Crescents to net alittle over 12k in trash, 8 soiled rings, while running a kama blessing, +5 luck and not one single ring.

Me and my guild are saying the same thing. Things seem off after last update. Drop rates and enhancements are horrendous now. Many in my guild can't even get duo on one item when they've had full TRI for weeks. We know how to fs and it's nearing the point of statistically impossible to fail at those percentages that many times. 

But you'll get people "thats rng for ya". Yeah yeah i know, but this seems off.

Buy pearl, buy valks cry+artisan mem package. May be this is the reason u looking for? No drop, no money= no fs. So u need to buy pearl for enchanting.

But it may be conspiracy as Kure said. I got 2 crescent in two days. Its looking normal to me.

Actually, it isn't. But at least you're not one of those people who's saying it should work "Every 2 attempts because 70% +70% =140%" ?

I think I'm unbothered by the success rate of Enhancement because of NW tbh. I expect these outcomes so I've not noticed any change. That being said, I am getting less sharps and hards than normal, but I'm also gathering less. Idk.

I see my guildies dropping Seraps, Crescents all the time and I haven't seen a single one drop yet. We are simply unlucky. The last 9 soiled rings resulted in 9 broken rings as well. 

The lucky thing is that we at least make some money in the process to eventually buy them off the market place ... ?????

Played the other night during the Hot Time Event, had the Asula necklace drop 6 times in two hours play. I thought great went to the Helms outpost and played for another two hours and got nothing, some areas seem to have better drop rates than others it may be more a balance issue than poor RNG?

No it was a serious question, what enhancement (with wht FS) has 95% succed rate?

You can't go over 90% chance that's the hard cap for failstacking. Doesn't matter how much you go over it will never change your chance.

A 15 FS would give you a 90% chance on a +6 reblath/blue/boss armour or +8 blue/boss weapon or a pri attempt in something like asulas.

I'm betting the ones who are seeing bad drop rate are those with Node investment above tier 4. I'm telling you folks that the energy investment system is bugged on Xbox like it was bugged on PC last year and screwing drop rate.

Although I'm yet to see a Serap's or RoCG drop, yesterday I dropped 12 scrolls written in ancient language within 60-70 minutes of grind. It seems like RNG is just RNG.

The only bad drops I'm seeing lately is the frames. Since Valencia my screen freezes a whole lot, which would be concerning if I wasn't grinding places where my DP saves me, good thing Fogans, Nagas and Gahaz all hit like pool noodles.

Seriously though, drops seem pretty average to me, not noticing any difference.

Some days I get what I want, others just mean I have to try again another day. Some days I can enhance gear @ 10% while others just won't do as they're told until a 60 fail stack is reached. 

RNG just seems to be prevalent, instant gratification isn't.
