Stop lying about drop rates Nexon
I've run the Chapel 45 times and haven't gotten the Sharen piece. 20% drop rate my arse. I farmed the mats and killed the Colossus for the Gley piece I needed too and it took 12 tries at a 38% chance but I got 4 Smithereens pieces IN A ROW. Anything to do with Descendant drops is a blatant lie, I'm calling it. Any percentage they give you isn't real.

Congrats on publicly announcing that you don't under stand basic maths and probability.

Drop rates are RNG I have multiple Sharen pieces , rng is rng.

No you're both wrong. They're lying.

You are being selective with your 20%...

They paid for it and there is a class action lawsuit, why would they do that again?

I mean, Nexon has done some shady stuff with drop rate chances in their games before, specifically Maple Story, they got fined for that, so it wouldn't really surprise me, but if I had to guess it's probably just bad luck, it is still RNG after all.

You do know, there are other items in the loot table right?

Incase you don't, everything in that table has their own drop chance and some have higher chances than others to drop.

Yes, the RNG in this game is bad, but then again RNG in most games of this type is very bad as a standard and the you come to the boss monster thing, I fight the first two multiple times yesterday and half the time I was not gating the final reward just a message stating that there was no reward, and I am like what the bloody hell do you mean no reward, when each of those reward item has at least 5 different types of sub reward and there are 3 types of main reward, so the means there should be at least 15 different types of reward, i.e. 3 main x 5 sub = 15.

But then as stated above this developer does have a bad rep!

Yes, and somehow it's only the drop rates for Descendants that don't seem to be accurately represented. I finally got the Sharen stabilizer. It took 48 runs at a 20% drop chance. The Gley piece I needed was the same 38% as the Smithereens piece, which I got 4 times in a row, and 6 times total.

I'm calling it. Drop rates for Descendants are not real, because Nexon wants you to go into the shop and pony up for them. (I have spent $300 on this game.)

With this game you have two choices, choice 1) grid like hell trying to get what you want well battling the rng, choice 2) dev's preferred method go to the shop and hand over all you cash, you chose?

To all the people berating the OP. This is NEXON we are talking about and it is well known in the gaming industry that NEXON lies about drop rates in all their games. This has been front and center on every single gaming magazine and youtube gaming channel for YEARS! Gameranx just did a vid about this game and even mentioned NEXON's shady past and specifically mentioned them lying about drop rates.
