Dice is rigged?

[Sekhmet]

Anyone else noticed that npcs get extremly lucky scores? For instance: some of the npcs will get all in scores in like every 2nd game while I can't even get a single score with 4 normal and 2 lucky dices?

Some (most) of the NPCs also have special dice. So the odds aren't necessarily symmetrical.

I know that they have... uhm... "had" since I stole their dice while they were sleeping. However I'm still losing to them even tho I own their dice. xP

I mean you get to use loaded dice so I assume they do as well - only fair

Get 6 good die and you will generally win

Dont know but i would guess because; nothing in programming is ever ''random'', the outcome of dice rolled might be decided when game of dice starts, and since the total different rolls are higher than you can roll at once it can probably seem like you are always loosing. (the odds are always against you, the house always wins, etc)

But this is just speculation based on how mini games like this in other games work

TLDR; yes dice is rigged, in fact the whole game is rigged, thats just how video games work. Player wins vs game by playing, game wins vs player by cheating

I know they do. Whenever they use some of them I can see it since they have different colors. However they re winning without good dice :)

The dice game is not rigged. You just need to get a good couple of loaded dice and know what they do. For example, Saint Antioch is in most cases giving you 3s. Pair that with odd dice and you're more likely to win before the opponent can even make a move.

To give you a few tips: learn and train your pickpocketing skills (with appropriate dark and silent clothing) to steal from those players using these colorful dice. Check the innkeepers and alemaids as they sell dice as well (although not really good ones). Another interesting dude is living under a bridge (hence called Unterbruck). Plus I recommend pickpocketing any fancy character you meet in the camps or on the road as they often carry special items.

Then your goal should be to score with all your dice so you can roll over and over and over again.

whats the point of playing for 100 gold if u can choke a guard and steal his items worth 1000?

Antiochus die is trash lol. Odd die, strip die, devils head die, painted die are all good early game. You want to get dice that are loaded for 1's, 5's and 6's or have the devils head.

No, it's not. You get 3s all the time. If you have 3 of them, you're guaranteed to get 3 3s, so you can score ALWAYS. With odd dies, you get 1, 3 or 5, with every 3 doubling AND you can score single 1s and 5s, making it easily a 6 dice scoring every single time. Then you roll again your 6 dice and you get even more points and your opponent has no chance to win.

Yeah that actually makes sense. It's cheesy af tho as its a dice game with no variance.
