    Wink Vanity drop superstitions

    I've been trying for albino bats for a while, and I've noticed I tend to get superstitious thoughts about farming.

    i.e. if I do something a certain way, drops are more likely.

    They're all probably nonsense, but I thought it's be fun to create a thread where people share superstitions they've entertained while looking for an elusive item. Maybe some of them are true! Maybe some will prove false when more experienced players weigh in. I'm damn sure a lot of them are funny.

    Some examples of my own superstitious leanings:

    • When I use vermin swarm, enemies don't drop items. I need to do hand-to-hand combat only. (debunked)
    • Vanities will only drop if I do the entire mission, not single levels.
    • Vanities drop more for teams of players than solo.
    • I need to pick up every junk item to encourage vanities to come out.
    • Albino bats will never drop because I want them.


    What are your vanity drop superstitions?

    - Playing every day decreases ur dropchances (playing every other day increases ur dropchances)
    - Do other mission at least 10 times b4 u try to find albino bats on Morhaven
    - Vanity (high valuable vanity) drops only at certain times and excludes each other, if albino bats r droppping, during that day/week? sinister mask wont drop and/or vv.
    - When in a mission 2 pieces of vanity drop (cheap and an expensive item), and u find the cheap one, that day the more valuable item wont drop for u.

    Finally dont b too trusting and dont believe everything u hear, way back when I was a noob (aug 2012), an more experienced player told me that when u run 3 times around the bloodfountain (end of street) u wld get an item at random.
    So I tried and indeed I got an item (socialite top), what I didnt realize at the time was that the guy gave me an item and that it had nothing to do with me running around the fountain 3 times.
    I did share the info with my friends so for 3 days in a row at certain times we were running around the fountain....

    - Changing toons during a day increases my chances
    - Vanities drop more after the weekend, is like players run the maps a lot and they are ready to give u the good stuff!
    - Black druid top is never going to drop for me (7 months running gallows are the proof)
    - If ur bored after hrs running a map and u jump to another map u win something

    and Phantomas, someome told me when i was a noob that brim burned vanities, i didnīt use it for months

    Here are a few...some that I have to admit I still do :

    - Farm wherever your allies pop...they bring you luck
    - Use leap...it is luckier with drops
    - You get better drops from breakables...if you break them right after a feed
    - You get better drops in solo mode...no wait multi mode....no wait...yea that one I know doesn't make a difference for me

    #1. If you get a cheap vanity give up for the day the game ain't in the giving mood.
    #2 If you get a legendary weapon or gem drop don't pick it up.
    #3 Don't run w/ me I'm bad luck lol
    #4 You'll never get what u want when u want it, only what your not looking for while your not looking for it.
