Update 3/10: Because I'm a glutton for punishment I tried 50 more Lovecraft chests and, miracle of miracles, I finally looted the Rogue version of the vanity. It cost me 550 Lovecraft chests in the end and I'm just gonna eat the cost because I don't have time to deal with attempting to get compensation.

----------- end update -----------

What happens when you rely on a random number generator too much?

128015

300+ Lovecraft Chests Opened (100 farmed 200 purchased)
4 Sorcerer Golden Cupid Wings Vanity
1 Warrior Golden Cupid Wings Vanity
0 Rogue Golden Cupid Wings Vanity

And one very unhappy, frustrated player.

Maybe if Hugthulu dropped three kinds of lovecraft chests each containing the vanities of a specific class or there were three bosses that could each drop a specific chest containing the vanities of a specific class unlucky players wouldn't be this outraged.

Just my 2 cents.

And do it upside down while drinking a soda right side up with an umbrella at your feet! Dang that didn't work for me either xD

They are neither tradable nor stashable, so that would be fruitless.

Update: It got even worse for me. I opened another 200 chests with my rogue and ended up with 3 sorcerer Golden Cupid Wings and 4 warrior Golden Cupid Wings. ZERO rogue Golden Cupid Wings in 500 chests?

But wait, it gets worse!

I gave up on my rogue and tried my Warrior. The FIRST Lovecraft chest yielded a Rogue Golden Cupid Wings. ONE CHEST!!! Then, I opened 10 more Lovecraft chests and got a sorcerer Golden Cupid Wings. ZERO warrior Golden Cupid Wings.

I have a lot of respect for STS and the work they do, but it was not a good decision to enable players to loot hard-to-get, expensive, non-tradable/stashable exclusive vanity of the WRONG class. Playing random number games on Locked I can understand, but this entire event is supposed to be about "Player Love." How can my situation be consider love by anybody?

It's not acceptable to expect players to expend as many resources as I did and still have the item be unattainable. I'm going to open a support ticket and request this to be rectified. I'll update this thread on any progress.

Yeah I was wrong on that one. It still would not have helped because my sorc on that account already had the vanity and only the rouge did not.
