    Chill of Ravenloft Loot Overview

    I posted elsewhere but I think it's also relevant here . The issue with rare loot isnt that the droprate is low, its that 10% of players can go extremely dry. No one wants to go 800+ chests without the item they want/need. So to establish the base droprate, which was aggregated by...

    SSG: Please confirm if there will be Rare Loot Mechanic for "The Chill of Ravenloft"

    I'm going to add to what Ying posted because I got bored with some guildies and we spend like 12 hours running simulations of rare loot. The issue with rare loot isnt that the droprate is low, its that 10% of players can go extremely dry. No one wants to go 800+ chests without the item they...

    Chill of Ravenloft Loot Overview

    There is no meaningful way to test this without giving us the numbers. The number of chests we would need for it to "feel" reasonable is in the thousands. If you do want meaningful feedback, I can provide the "ideal" droprates if you can give me what you expect the 1. average player, 2...

    Quest Preview: A Miner Problem

    Not just that, theyre all the same mob x10. there's almost 0 mob variety so it feels extremely repetitive for the entire quest. Those two things unfortunately detracted from anything else I liked about the quest (which was all of the rest)

    U74 Preview 2: Dhampir Race

    This feels a lot better. My last desire for this race is that they add an upgraded form similar to the iconic that focuses on the physical aspect in t4 (+2 con/dex/str and 5 mp or something similar).

    U74 Preview 1: Dhampir Race

    This is my issue. I don't need it be be meta, I just want a race that supports a playstyle (even a niche one). Currently, it doesnt other than flavour which quickly loses novelty. The current version feels like they made the PM shroud the entire race. Also from the initial post,my...

    U74 Preview 1: Dhampir Race

    Ok so having mulled and played with dhampir, I have more detailed feedback. Overall, the current version feels like a Cha/caster race that had str/melee shoehorned in. It lacks the +dmg/DS/hit/sneak/imbue that every other melee/ranged race gets, has no active attacks (chains, raging crush...

    U74 Preview 1: Dhampir Race

    on most dps at cap this will heal less than 600 in r1, less than 50 in r10. It's already going to be punished because its a self heal that can only be used in combat since it's an attack. (this is less than primal scream heal) preliminary assessment: Overall it looks....average? I like the...

    Melee DPS EDs, explain it like I'm 5.

    So here's my view, though I generally play completionist toons. You basically need to get (and this is roughly in order of priority): 1. A good epic strike (cutter, lotus, fate, crusade) 2. Maximum Double strike (DS from here on) 3. t5/ epic moment that works well with the build 4. A good...

    Where is the best place to farm Reaper Fragments these days?

    dont think that was the exact numbers, but itll be close? keep in mind that was r10 with 100% based named item rate, the only variable was if there was a TH pot or not.

    Where is the best place to farm Reaper Fragments these days?

    it would have been 5-10% more (so without would be like 15, with would be 20-25) with sample size of 2000 or so

    Where is the best place to farm Reaper Fragments these days?

    I can recall that r10 was roughly double the rate of r1, don't think we ever compared mythic rates. I think we specifically tested using the 15 TH pots from the store on the socks vs not, but I dont recall the exact change other than it was statistically significant (it was less than doubled...

    Where is the best place to farm Reaper Fragments these days?

    I can't seem to find the data, it was years ago, but I know both were over 99.7% statistically significant (I tend to use 3 sigma for things), with the r1 vs r10 being more signifigant.

    Where is the best place to farm Reaper Fragments these days?

    we tested back when borderlands was the meta farming (to ensure 100% named rate), # of skulls has an effect (r10 is about double the rate of r1), as does treasure hunter (don't know the exact formula but it was statistically enough). sample size was in the hundreds/thousands

    The Math On Rare Loot Is Counterproductive For The Game

    I hate the rare loot system, but we knew that rare loot existed and which items from lammania (vendor had a "show me the rare loot" option). they never gave us the rare drop rates, and we only know because they were data mined.

    Top 10 Best Curse Cards: Ranged Edition

    depends on the ranged but generally I'd put them into 4 categories 1. +2 sneak dice 2. +2 imbue dice the next three are prioritized differently by build, but will still be 3-5: 3. +2 dmg 4. Weapon touch 5. +5 RP strong on all builds, but usually a bit weaker than 3-5: 6. Main stat +2 7. Major...
