Armor/Weapon parts/full drop chance bug

[MarilynMonroe 6]

Okay as there is a lot of specilation on discord about shadow nerf for full drop/parts chance, I went to farm to check it out. Here is what i found out:

- I farmed drakes on DV 
- counted every mob i kill 
- I farmed light red mobs - no drop penalty

- i killed similar amount of slow and fast drakes

- checked Database chances:

- there are 2 types of mob, one has 1% chance, the other has 1/200 for shaft (on average 1/150) -  as its wapon part we suspect it has bugged chance
- Also 1 drake has leather drop rate 8% and another 0% (on average 4%)
- Also 1 drake has ghost gloves part 4% chance and another drake 0% (on average 2% chance) - as its armor part we suspect it has bugged chance
- Animal skin (1 mob has chance 32% and amount 1-3, 2nd mob has chance 16% and amount 1-3) - on average we get 24% chance to get 2 animal skins

- I farmed almost 3h, in total i killed 400 drakes, put all of mentioned above drops to one char to count what is result of farm

What was expected result for 400 mobs :
- Emi shaft : 400 mobs for 1/150 chance - i expected to get 2 or 3
- Leather: 400 mobs for 4% chance - 16 leather
- ghost gloves part: 400 mobs for 4% chance - 16 parts
- Animal skin: 400 mobs for 24% chance to get 2 animal skin - 192 animal skin

Okay what pattern we can see here:

We can see expected amount of leather is same as ghost gloves

now lets see what ive got:
- emi shaft 1 (expected 3)

- leather 17 (expected 16)

- ghost gloves part 1! (expected 16!!!!) - the same drop rate leather dropped 17x while gloves only once

- animal skin 196 (expected 192)

Conclusions:
- I was surprised how close it dropped amount of mats was to what is expected to get from math calculations and database info. 
(dropped 17 leather - expected 16, 196 animal skin - expected 192)
- Parts drop is TOTALLY BROKEN. It looks like i was very lucky to get this 1 emi shaft after killing 400 mobs.
- Its hard to estimate how much broken parts/full drop is but if we take example of ghost gloves it looks like chance is 16x lower than it should
- Looks like admins did shadow change (didnt announce anywhere) and gossips on discord have strong background on facts

Looking for feedback from admins what is going to be done with this. Emi shafts already fo for 1.5kk each on market

@San0 @Kse @Koll

P.S

forgot to add, i counted also EAC which has exactly the same chance in db as emi shaft
Ive got 7 eac and only 1 emi shaft
3 eac here

and 4 went into item

Good, let it a bit harder a bit.

parts of armor and weapons are more difficult to obtain. I think this is right.

Хорошо, так как есть много предположений о разногласиях по поводу теневого нерфа для полного шанса дропа / частей, я пошел на ферму, чтобы проверить это. Вот что я узнал:

- Я фармил драконов на DV 
- считал каждого убитого моба 
- Я фармил светло-красных мобов - штрафа за дроп нет

 

 

You are doing everything wrong!
so ... from the monster monaushen gargoyle
4 types of books drop out
...
I got 8 books in 2 days
and all 8 books of sacrifice
and they told me it's a normal chance
so smile and exhale

шансы дропа кусков\рецептов\книг\целой шмотки вообще не соответствует базе. играть может быть и сложнее, но глупость зашкаливает. простой рецепт ssc ценой в 1кк не обладает никакой окупаемостью, только если на дистанции в 3-4 месяца

For example:
Shield Deflect Magic are book that drops from same mob only with same chance.
Sacrifice book: 78 books on server.
Sacrifice skill: 1 skill learned.

Shield Deflect Magic book: 92 books on server.
Shield Deflect Magic skill: 4 skills learned.

But based on your test should be 175 sacrifice skills/books and 0 Shield Deflect Magic skills/books.

Didnt calculate. Checked only these gloves/emi

You can only drop 1 item from armor/pieces group at a time, unless chance inside a group is higher then 100% ( which we don't have because it's wrong and server will point it out ). 
So your drop of Gaunlets piece can be swapped with any other pieces or even a weapon/armor that drops from same mob. 

[Koll 1229]

Few days ago I was testing report from 1 char who said he drops less then he should ONLY for his char. We transferred his char on test server and I was killing 500 mobs packs.

4 packs dropped 5-6 armor pieces, so I was expecting it to continue, 5th pack I changed method of killing mobs and dropped only 1 armor piece. I thought I found something and start talking with Kse/San0 discussing what it can be, then killed 6th pack same way as 5th one and got 5 armor pieces again.

You did not understand me ,,,
Gargoyle can drop 4 types of books
what is the chance of getting 8 Sacrifice Books from 8 dropped books...
-------
others didn't fall at all.

Here I am also kind of tormented by the question of chance ...
1 book 1/4
2 book 1/16
Book 3 1/64 ,,,256,,,1024,,,
8 book 1 / 65 536
it's not even random - but a complete mockery ..

when the 4th book fell to me, I wrote to the discord - they ignored me
when 5 fell and then 6 the book wrote again - again ignore
after falling 8 books - I was torn and I went to sleep
then he wrote to Sano on the forum in the mail and he said that the chance is normal and everything is fine
.
- although in fact ---- all this is complete nonsense
Spellbook: Death Whisper         -    0
Spellbook: Sacrifice                 -    8
Spellbook: Shield Deflect Magic  -    0
Spellbook: Stigma of Shilen       -    0

I showed you there are no issue with this mob. Because again, based on your test book Shield Deflect Magic shouldn't exist on server because it ONLY drops from this mob also. But there are more Shield Deflect Magic then Sacrifice.

Я показал вам, что с этим мобом проблем нет. Потому что опять же, основываясь на вашей тестовой книге, Shield Deflect Magic не должен существовать на сервере, потому что он также падает ТОЛЬКО с этого моба. Но магии отражения щита больше, чем жертвоприношения.

I know that they fall - they even gave me some, laughing at the same time from what a loser I am

It's based on your viewpoint, you rolled lower chance then they are 😉

такого выпадения шансов быть не должно...

увы, шанс выпадения DW всегда был ниже, чем в базах, и поэтому он всегда стоил огромных денег
