So I Saved Up 99 Case+1 And Opened It In 1 Sitting

So I saved up 99 Case+1 and opened it in 1 sitting
Yeah don’t save them it’s depressing.
Our LSmate saved 76 and got a single +2 COR it was sad to watch.

Jesus, what a downer. The Sortie earring system is one of the worst in any MMO.

I was saving them for fun cause I already have most of the earring I wanted, if I don't have a lot of +2s already I would've been pissed, and oh the DRG+2 I already have and of course it was a minimum roll lmao
we had a guy with 85 pop and i think he got 7 +2's another guy had like 65~ did it at the same time and got 2. Sometimes it sure doesnt feel like 5% for those +2's.
If we put a gun to a Dev's head/gave them truth serum I bet they'd admit there's some kind of algorithm/logic behind the scenes that limits the number of rare drops that get introduced to the game, kind of like how Casinos or Carnivals intentionally rig their machines to only allow a payout when the game is played a certain number of times. The drop rate on +2s is so shameful.
I got 99 old case +1 but a DRK+2 ain't one
Because he took the red pill
Does anyone have 22/22 +2s? I'm 18/22 myself
It's almost like, stick with me here, it's random.
Some people will open lots of cases and get no earrings. Some people will open up few cases and get lots of earrings. This is how random numbers work. My anecdotes: friend saved 100 cases, got 2 +2 earrings. Another friend saved 40 cases, got 4 +2 earrings. This is totally meaningless because "feeling out" randomness using the player experience is an EXTREMELY dumb way to determine if your random function is acting randomly. YouTube Video Placeholder

How random numbers with a distribution work is, given a big enough sample size, the distribution will tend towards their respective values.
When they do not, the distribution is off. Or the random number generator is not really random. Which it's not. The Aminon RoE that gives an Old Case +2, should be monthly. :/
(..and SE should not lessen the incidence of Max Augments as a result such a change).

These examples are hilarious. (7+2)/(85+65) = 6%. So i guess technically you're right, it's not evidence that the rate is 5% (not that SE ever said it was supposed to be 5% anyway). Asura.Dexprozius said: » Does anyone have 22/22 +2s? I'm 18/22 myself 10/22 on +2s (DRGx3,BLMx2,THFx2 repeats) and have done my unfair share of sortie.
Its all RNG but saving months worth for a single +2 is punishing. 100% the ROE cases should be monthly, it would barely put a dent in the earring chase even for the best groups.

I personally don't see an issue. Could really careless about the drop rates and just enjoy the content. Sure the earrings are great to have and the Augmenting system is like Dark Matters with Oseem and we all know how he is the best NPC their is. You know, cause everyone is there. I've been playing Sortie since it came out and got plenty of earrings +1 and 2. However, there is more to Sortie then just the Earrings. Another way of putting it is Omen Bodies Good Luck.
I've been running for over a year and I've never gotten a +2. I'm the only one in my group that has never seen a +2

Future generations will study the elegant genius of the SE code with the omniscience to accurately define the item your heart desires the most and endlessly deny it. |
