    Default Sts please tell us how your luck system actually works

    This has been bugging me for a while now and people who have played long enough will understand what i am talking about.

    I have reason to believe item drop rate is artificially controlled. This might be the reason we see reputable players who claim doing arena 900 times without a single recipe drop. What is even more odd is that they made recipe a separate drop that is not affected at all by lepre or luck elixirs.

    The luck system i am talking about applies to all chests, recipe in arena and event bosses.

    Everyone who played during the events might have noticed that the most desirable boss comes in batches at the same time for everyone. If someone yelled in guild chat paracelsus boss, everyone who entered the dungeon at the same time like that other guy was pretty much guaranteed to get paracelsus too.

    I have noticed something strange during the lovecrafy event too. All the desirable vanities came in batches when you were opening lovecraft chests and if someone was opening chests at the same time as you did he would get the same items as you.

    Now for the recipe. Its impossible to have such a stable price for an item for such a long time unless the drop rate is not artificially tempered with. There is not one day where people sell a lot of recipes. If the drop rate was random we would have days where we would have a lot of recipes selling and days where we would have less or none.

    All chests have desireable items and fillers. Fillers are items or other types of goods that have low value partly because they drop a lot and partly because they are not very good actually.

    I can't tell at the moment how the server gives away the desireable items. Think of arena spitting out a recipe every 10000 completed runs or one recipe / day.

    If anyone have any more simillar experiences, please share. I know the human mind is programmed to see patterns even in the most random places but i really don't believe what i am seeing is a random loot system.

    I feel bad for the people who ran arena 900 times without any recipe drops but they did't roll for recipe 900 times, instead the server spits out a recipe for the people who are at the right place at the right time.
