1. if u run u might get kill but its faster
2.stock up on pots
3.bring a few ppl for back up exp. mage for rev
4.if u die ur pinks chance goes down to purps then greens ex.
5.u should pile on the bosses
6.u should get evened out long rang and short range carachters

Is this a proven fact? Because it sounds absolutely ridiculous.

How much have you tested it? Have you done the same level multiple times where you go kill a boss, see if you get a pink, do the level again, die, then kill the boss and see if you don't get a pink? Or are you just saying that this is what you think happens?

No it isn't. It's as much a proven fact as skill kills give pinks, or low levels get more pinks, or if you turn you iPhone upside down during a kill you get a pink, or any of the other nonsense people come up with lol.

it would be impossible to test. because part of it is luck. if you got no pinks without dying, then get a pink when u did, it doesnt mean its true. u cant test it

You could test it but it would take probably 10s of thousands of farming runs. You would first have to get a baseline frequency of drops by running thousands of times without dying (that many because with rarity of pinks, the variation for individual runs would be huge). Then you would have to get some stats for thousands of runs where you die. Take your frequency from the dying runs, and see if it fits within a standard deviation or so of the no-dying run frequency. Anyone got a few solid months to play all day every day? We might be able to get enough to to be significant within that time if we can get 5 people ;)

How can you even out with 5 characters? IMO, thix list wasn't much help to me at all. It won't improve your pink chances, jute make your runs faster in some cases.

Those are all ridiculous. If you really want to get pinks you should do what I do and take your underwear off and put it on your head when you play. And yes, I have tested this and got a bunch of pinks before the driver kicked me off the bus.

ive tested it 20-30 times each time it works so its no for sure but very plauseble
