Maybe it's just random luck. Maybe it's nothing more then RNG going haywire, but I started asking around and it seems to be consistant.

Do the Singed patterns drop in a massive overabundence for anyone else? -Every- Phara Dar adn Silverwing kill we've done so far has resulted in the Singed Helm and Singed Pants dropping as a matter of course, and then one of the other set patterns.

Beyond irritating.

Random distribution does not mean fair distribution :/

So far in VP:

106 Total
13 Blackened
18 Cauterized
22 Charred
14 Incinerated
23 Scorched
16 Singed

Snooze

It's the RNG, which imho still doesn't work, as we see keep seeing the same drops over & over & over again, which really gets fucking old to see Hammer of Swirling Constellations like 4x in a row!

Same with patterns, we for example see far more Charred & Scorched pattern then anything else! We have to finish VP one week without seeing charred or scorched pants pattern, as either of em pretty much have been a guaranteed drop! Yet we have only seen one pair or blackened or cauterized legs.
And then on the other hand, on Druushk we have not seen a single pair singed pattern.

It seems more like you see the same drops, rather then having a balance drop rate, and what these items are seem to vary from guild to guild!

I have 2 Cauterized Chestguard Patterns on me, and I'm an Illusionist.

Fuck, I need more Patterns, tbh. I'm working on a collection of having a full set of all 6 of them!

But basically, certain guilds get a certain drop ALL THE FUCKING TIME. It's annoying as hell, and broken.

If theres 3 cups turned upside down and one of them has a penny underneath - If I fail to pick the one with the penny 10 times in a row is reality broken?

Pinski

If you run a random number generator 10000 times, and you never get between 0 and 33 out of 100 something's wrong.

That depends if the cups are shuffled every time or not. seeing as your example doesnt say they were though...

yes reality is broken!

or you are just really really stupid and keep picking the same cup over and over... kinda like our RNG system.

also, the sky is falling.

well of course they're shuffled

ps. I honestly swear there is an RNG but certain items in some examples have a lower % for the RNG to land on them. Gloves of sagacity, Nizara wrists, Dagger of Arcane Rites - IME those items did not seem to have equal chances at dropping for sure, compared with similar loot.

Kall

I would agree that there's definitely hidden weights attached to some items which make them have a lower chance of dropping.
