Orb of Chance Community Log
Two questions:
1) If a base item type (e.g. Onyx Amulet) has multiple Unique outcomes, does that increase the total chance of receiving a unique? Or does it first check if it rolls a unique, then (assuming 3 uniques possible) have a 33% chance of each one, reducing your chance of getting what you actually wanted? 2) Does the ilvl of the base item type influence if you can roll a unique or not? e.g. Orb of Chancing the ilvl 1 Crude Bow could always give you a Silverbranch, but do you need like an ilvl 40+ Onyx Amulet in order to roll an Astramentis or something along those lines? My original assumption was that the unique was available immediately upon having access to the item type, so all Glorious Plate can be Chance'd into a Kaom's Heart, and all Onyx Amulets (even at the lowest possible level you can get one) can still become an Astramentis. I'm currently saving up Orbs of Chance and +20 Onyx Amulets, and I need to know if I'm doing anything other than gimping my chances of getting weak rares by allowing inferior ilvl amulets in my horde.

" 1) It's the same chance for it to become a unique no matter how many unique types of said item there are. That being said, once it has upgraded to a unique, the chance for it to be the unique you want may be different than the other possible outcomes. For example, Astramentis is probably rarer than Eye of Chayula, but Onyx Amulets (as well as all other base items) have the same chance of becoming a unique regardless of which unique it is - this is how I understand it based on responses from Chris, anyway. 2) It shouldn't matter if the ilvl is the same as the required level as the unique itself. However, there is a bit of an issue where we're unsure whether or not it can be below. For example, purchasing a Sapphire Ring from an Act 1 Normal vendor could result in a ring with an ilvl below that of Dream Fragments (11). Whether or not it's still eligible to upgrade to a unique is unknown currently. |

" I got my first Kaom's after 4 chances. I've been trying for another and have only received rares/magics. Yes I know it was all rng and I just landed on the extremely unlikely side of the distribution however I am still going to continue trying for a second one and will have it all recorded.
