Default Re: t1 set piece (helm+) drop rate too low?

Have not seen the cleric cap, either. We got one helm, it was the MT one.

We all know SOE standard operating procedure - Loot drops like candy for the first month of an explansion, then gets turned down for 5-9 months, and turned back up just before the next expansion.
we already sold 2 on loot rights, your luck just sucks. and we made 175p!

ed: btw we got another brawler helm today, yay 4th piece of brawler gear lol

K I have read threads over the last 2 years suggesting the following and I truely believe it.
The RNG for loot is using something as the seed for it that is causing an increased likelyhood of a certain outcomes (I hope that makes sense).
My point, if 75% of the raid force is the same, we raid the same zones on a set schedule, etc etc all the same. Would this not support why we see similar loot dropping?

I am not necessarily asking for smart loot. I am just saying that transmuting half of the drops becuase we got 3 already is weak considering that we have seen maybe 10% of any given mobs' loot table.

Wish it'd stop dropping for us... I think all of our alts got it now too. Same with the damn trampler's boots.

Set pieces have been hard to come by though

i want to support this! this went back to old KoS. we noticed, that when we raided some zone on another day of the week we got high odds of different loot

example: we raided labs for like 2 months weekly on the same day. then we did it on another day as an alt-raid and got the dracomancer vestment we havent seen for over half a year.

theres definitly some truth in the quoted statement about the salt for the RNG. please dont base it on date or time on a larger frame then seconds
