cannot unlock uber lab

it's been 3 weeks+
I play 8+ hours a day, mostly maps
got a level 90 and a lvel 82
Just bought a few dream trial prophecies
I just CANNOT, absolutely, come across a stinging doubt one. I have found probably 100 trials so far, 0 stinging doubts.

GGG, this is NOT fun. In last couple of leagues it took me maybe a few days to unlock uber lab.

And this is not something I can even trade for...Like, what do you expect me to do? Spam trade chat until someone sells this to me? No one wants that, people would probably block me for spamming.
Even sacrifice of midnight, you can buy that if you really want to run atziri. You can buy agnerod staves if you want to do VInktar. But I am without a means to unlocki uber lab.

not cool.

Just go to global 820 instead of making up numbers about your play time and trials found.

This isn't made up, I had a level 89 and several mid 80 characters in hcp last season and still had two trials left to find
my evasion is so high i only insta rip sometimes

People were using cyclone for actual melee builds, so we nerfed it and made blade vortex. Also, we went ahead and made cyclone great for CoC casters while we were at it.
Agreed. Stinging doubt seems to be the most rare one, at least in my experience. 2 or 3 tops out of at least 50 trials found. It was the last one for me too (unlocked Uber at lvl 91)

Pure randomness isn't fun in this case. Until you unlock Uber, tials spawn should be biased toward those which you haven't completed yet.

Lets see...

6 Trials. You have 5/6 chance to NOT get the one you need. (I'm gonna assume their rarity is the same, as I've run across ones you claim to be rare, over and over again).

Chance to not get Trial you need = 5/6 = 83,3%
Chance to not get it twice = (5/6)*(5/6)= 69,4%

Chance to not get Trial you need for 100 times = (5/6)^100 = 0,000001207%

Not sure if I believe you about the 100 times part, bro.
Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.
Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge.

I suggest purchasing a bunch of dream trials from poe.trade They arent that expensive.
For years i searched for deep truths. A thousand revelations. At the very edge...the ability to think itself dissolves away.Thinking in human language is the problem. Any separation from 'the whole truth' is incomplete.My incomplete concepts may add to your 'whole truth', accept it or think about it

There had been speculation about certain maps not rolling certain trials. Regardless, many people have gotten to 90+ with several other chars high as well and still not found every trial.

I usually stop bothering with trials as soon as I get the Lab unlocked (by then, I have more Offerings than I intend to run, anyway). So if there are map portals left and nobody from the guild wants it, it goes to /global 820. Trials show up there all the time, it shouldn't take too long to get a Stinging Doubt. :-)
I'm still on 5/6 and have run about 100 maps.

Chances that out of 100 times one of the six maps would not show up would be about 6 times the number you calculate. Which is still an extremely tiny number so your point is definitely still valid. On the other hand I'll guess that he did not actually count the 100 and was just gross estimating. So let's try something else. What's the probability of having this problem after 20 times. If I worked the calculator properly (which I can't guarantee :-) ) then it is a 2.6% chance. This is definitely going to happen frequently with a large population like the PoE player base. Is that fine or not? I have no opinion so others can discuss.
