% Chances of Finding Major Items

[Prometheus]

I figure there's nothing wrong with letting you guys see this little piece of the scripts.

Basically all the following items are inside one "loot group". The smaller the number next to them the harder they are to find.

recallrune 90
LanceOfLothian 10
AnubissMaceOfDeath 30
ScalpelofTrevize 15
AxeofAnias 55
BardicheofLynx 65
DekeronsThunder 20
TjaldursStaffofHaste 60
KatanaOfKieri 10
WarMaceofErik 80
HalberdOfAlcatraz 80
PitchforkofPrometheus 5
OmerosPickaxe 1
XarafaxsAxe 1
BookoftheEarth 2
CodexDamnorum 3
scimitarofdekar 30

wow very nice but seems so odd that i get lynx way more then runes. but for the very rare items maybe a little boost say the lowest number should be a 5%, maybe plus 5 to all the low things ive found one lothian the entire time ive played here, and ive been playing awhile.

but then again theres some people who have found them like alot. who knows but ya just my thought, i noticed the numbers decreased a little

I presume that silmaris is "1" right?

Silmarils are in a different lootgroup but, judging by the fact there's only been 1 town built, I'd say they're as rare as Ebooks/Omeros etc. and that's not going to change, although I would welcome a new town - it's been a while!

[jonhy5]

we are almost there, we have 3 silmaris...

is that somekind new droplist ?
i usually find either bardiche or halberd on every 3rd balron, but runes seems to be considerably harder to come by
and dekars scimitar cant be that rare also

[Prometheus]

Everyone says that, and I'm inclined to agree about the runes too, but those are the exact figures the scripts read from so meh

[guilherme]

I disagree. Runes are never hard to find for me. I do think that the rareness of runes is really good, atm. After all, let's not forget that it is not rly suposed to rain runes.
BTW, Masta, maybe you are unlock with the Lothiam. I've found something like 4, already. What i have never found were Xarafax's, Omero's, and the books. These ones are rly hard to find.

well we also have to keep in mind that we all hunt the same dungeons and spawns so if i go to all say shame, destard, despise, hyloth, ice dungeon, wrong , and deciet to hunt and clear all of them say within hour and a half maybe less and i do this say 3 or 4 times in a row and i get nothing.

but then the next group comes around when im asleep or something and does the same 3 or 4 times they happen to get the good stuf because those spawns has already gone through 8-10 cycles.

thats how i assume the spawns and loot groups work 1 out of 10 balrons from the same balron spawn will drop a rune or 2

[Fury]

Thats not how it works, it doesnt remember the number of cycles.. It's based on pure luck

[mastasook]

well im guessing the more times that you kill that spawn in a row increases ur luck.

rather then logging in and going on a run to spawns that havent been killed in 2-3 days

[Fury]

Nope

I can confirm what GM Fury is saying; your luck is not affected by the number of times you hit a spawn.

Every time you kill a mob there's lots of equations which run to determine what items drop, but that's not affected by how many times you kill something.
