33 Karui Mauls Magic = 28 Rare = 5 Unique = 0	Posted by perey#5055 on Oct 24, 2012, 4:13:02 AM Quote this Post
This is a seminal clip from a film which examines our desire to rationalise possible outcomes from random drops. It's quite an old film now but still plays well on then theatrical circuit. Skip ahead to 40 seconds into the clip. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjOqaD5tWB0 It's a similar process to gamblers watching a roulette table and trying to guess the precise moment when switching from red to black has the best probability of producing the best return.

11 Mesh boots : 7 magic, 4 rare	Posted by shaah#5437 on Nov 6, 2012, 7:59:15 AM Quote this Post
10 onyx amulets 10 magics Super bummed about this right now. I have used a number of chances in the past and still not gotten so much as a rare. I guess I have to respect the laws of independent odds though.

" MonopolyLegend wrote: Based on some of the Dev posts I've read, I have a strong feeling that tracking Unique rates won't matter. It sounds like some Uniques ("build enabling" as they've been referred to) have a better chance of dropping. The drop rate is supposedly the same as the Orb of Chance rate, so that'd mean that each unique may have a different probability. In any case, I have no way of knowing this for sure unless the devs want to reveal more info - which they don't seem to want to do. :) As for the Rare rate, I've personally used ~300-400 Orbs of Chance and added them to this log (with one Unique from those). I seemed to get Rares on a 1/5 basis, but that's just gut feelings not hard math. My results are mixed in the log on the first post along with the rest of the community's results, so I assume just use those for data assessments like yours. This is what I am thinking. Maybe it could be tested on a common unique? What do people think the most common unique is?

A quiver. Peregreen helm. That chaos dmg coral ring.	Posted by SL4Y3R#7487 on Nov 8, 2012, 12:44:32 AM Banned Quote this Post
I've seen a ton of Peregrine Ribbed Helmets, that's gotta be a pretty common one. I also heard from a little birdie that Maligaro's are 1:200 chance... not sure that's at all accurate though.
