    Default (Fiery Locks!) Ridiculously Low Drop Rate

    Well, I took some money out of the bank and bought 5k plat. Now here’s what really get’s me upset.

    How do I not loot a single thing with 5200 plat? The drop rate is so ridiculously low. I just don’t understand how 350+ locks doesn’t drop a thing.

    R- random
    N- number
    G- generate
    RNG
    I know how you feel man. I stopped popping locks years ago. I accepted I just don't have RNG. some do, I don't.
    Sorry you spent so much man. Learn from this, it's not the games fault or the game doesn't like you. It's just RNG. it's funny to see all these threads about this. Yes if the drop rate was 60% just think the new arcane weps would be meh. Now if you get one man your the cool kid on the block man. Again sorry you spent that much on plat, just remember that was your choice.

    I know it's frustrating but, "locked" loot chances aren't based on "(X)number" of crates, loot chances are based on "(X)percentage" per crate....

    So, if the "%" chance "per crate" is ".05", and you open 1000 crates, you just get a ".05" percent chance "per crate" to get "prime loot" "1000 times".......

    We see a lot of loot in game and assume others are popping lockeds and receiving "prime loot" left and right but, those people who get a lot of loot from lockeds opens much more than 350+........

    It's an investment that you have to sort of prepare for and only engage in when you have the room to "gamble" whatever the cost of opening (X)amount lockeds will be... Never go all in..........

    I did 6.8k on NM crates last week...Arc belt rogue, that's it. It's all just luck/timing.

    A few weeks before I got 2 arc belt, TB and loads of NM gears for 3400 so yea... locks are a gamble, always will be.

    Darkness rises, mmorpg, 2018 release, android/ios platform, you can't see any chance. This loot chance thing is not mandatory for either store.

    I remember the chances when crates first released was something like 1 good item for 15k-30k plat. Chances seem much better these days.

    Star light, star bright...

    When Glacian got introduced years ago people looted nothing after 30-40k plats so nowadays drop is in much better state, just unlucky.

    Aka Ares/Twerrk/Mystery. :]

    At least locked crates and loot crates may disappear within the next few years. Many governments are starting to consider it a form of gambling and cracking down on games that have them.

    If the Government even thinks about stepping into arlor and interfering with my "Lockeds" and "Loot Chances", they will get this....

    I guess crate tokens was added to locked crates to exclude that "form of gambling"
    For goverment it will looks like: "player opening chest by plat(real money) and recieving back crate tokens with 100% chance (every 5plat=1crate token, no gamble here) + some random things as bonus"

    I just think it’s so ridiculous how I’m at 8k plat now and only got an arcanite toor. This is truly my last straw with AL. Always manage to ruin something. Not getting my money anymore.

    It's your choice to open locked bro, everyone knows they are bad drop rates. Do people still open, yes. Why? Because when you do hit something it can be awesome!

    If you don't want to take the risk of locked, sell awakes etc. You could of had a solid 48m from 8k plat (not to rub salt in the wound)

    You not right Idly... It's not a point that only 2% of the player has a new WEP. It will ruined everything in game, especially PVP.

    So I just spent $76 dollars on 1700 plat I’m about too go into the store and Buy another £76 dollars (I rounded the price up as it’s actually $75.87) for another 1700. UK Prices But that’s Cheap Being the Sale, The very reason I was going too buy 2 x 1700
    As its normally $112.54 for 1700 ....
    What a Downer So I’m finding nothing but Frost Bite !!!
    Now I see Nothing Has Changed !! The very reason I stopped Buying Plat !!
    Well Great ����*♀️ I could have bought Wallpaper with that Cash ��!!!
    At least this Thread has Stopped Me Buying another 1700 Plat.
    But by the Prices of the New Arcane Weapons o.O
    Ive never seen Arcane Weapons Priced like that B4 ....
    The Auction is Looking like More like The D/L Auction Every Day ....
