20% chance of dropping?? Freyna

[Damien]

Yeah I've done this mission 10 times now and this catalyst hasn't dropped yet, is it bugged?

No.

Ignore the % and see how many items can drop , like say it's 5 , you have a 1/5 chance of it dropping.

The shouldn't have used % because it throws people off (in before the math experts that know more than me )

[GezForce]

No... Nexon just doesn't respect your time... keep farming

[Damien]

This is really weird, I don't think it's going to drop for me

That's not how the math works. Also, it took me many attempts too just to get the cells. What I ended up doing was leaving to do another mission then come back and do it again.

Unless it's a 100% drop rate, the amount of times you run it doesn't matter. It's possible to flip a coin 50 times and get heads 40 times and tails 10 times, despite either one only being a 50/50% chance.

Just because something has a 20% drop rate does not mean you only need to run it 5 times. % Drops are not guaranteed and they are not cumulative. Each and every single run is ONLY 20% (Or whatever % it is for a specific part). 1 time, 10 times, 500 times, the chances of you getting it are still ONLY 20%.

you just gotta run more, i will say that nexxon was already sued for faking drop rates so take that as you want

This is what i'd imagine someone with c*cks on their profile comments to say.

[Ancient Rylanor]

Yeah, it took me 27 runs to get it. The drop rates are definitely something else.

[Karmadive]

I think the problem is most games have a built in system to limit the amount of streaks you can get for low or high numbers.

Baldur's gate has it on default that it will limit streaks of wins/losses to keep things balanced because true random is not what people think it is and don't find it fun.

I noticed for Freyna I got the drops quickly with only one taking 6 tries.

For Valby I hade a hard time getting one of her amorphous material drops. went through a streak of close to 20 not getting anything. And then I got one drop.. then 3 more in the next 5 attempts

That's random for you unfortunately.

Stop that and just tell them a 20% drop rate means you get it after 5 runs...

Hes just unlucky with the rolls.

[bandit]

The chance of not getting that drop after 10 runs is still about 10% so ... yeah bad luck.

[BudSwift]

I do find the chances quite frustrating. did the devour boss 6 times used and got 3 of one same gun recipe and 3 of another, cant sell or delete them. both higher % of getting rather they all have the same % to get, then its true random.
I believe the % rates are wrong and is calculated after each run not cumulative. 5 runs = nothing.

-I got the 1st part on my 10th attempt(I already started cursing that escort drone (it was really annoying me)) .Not because it's difficult, but because it's LONG... moreover, the escort process doesn't speed up if there are more people around, whereas in defense missions it's the opposite: the more people in the circle, the faster it goes. Unfortunately, not everyone understands that you need to stand in the CIRCLE (thanks for not fixing the BUG when he should stand still if you don't have SHIELDS; logically, he feeds off the HERO'S SHIELD -_- )
-The 2nd on the FIRST try O_O (my friend spent more than 20 attempts!!!).
- Got the 3rd part on my 4th try... which was really fast
this is KOREAN RANDOMNESS ... today I helped my friend to get the part (which I already have), we did 20 attempts and it DIDN'T drop... we even thought it doesn't drop because I already have it (but that's stupid or no? O_o)... so, the drop rate here is worse than in WARFRAME... it would be better if they didn't list the percentage at all....

In the drone escort mission, I saw (JERKS, at least that's what I initially thought of them -_-) who were just sitting at the end of the path waiting for someone to bring the drone. They would then just join the party with a single shot. On one hand, you hate them for this, BUT after 5 or so runs, you start to understand each other, as if your job was to GUIDE THE DRONE and theirs was to kill the mobs (especially if he\she have a BUNNY character waiting for you). I just sat there waiting for those 2 minutes... There's no point in shooting when BUNNY is running -_- As I said, the drone doesn't fly faster with more people around, and I think this is a BUG....

P.S.
Result: 1) The escort dron mission takes approximately +-7 minutes (including 2 minutes of defense), so I spent 70 minutes on that. The second one was quick (roughly 5 minutes). The last stage took about 6+-7 minutes, so that's ~24 minutes total. In sum, I spent 99 minutes (let's round it to 100) which is 1 hour and 40 minutes... it doesn't seem like much, but it was sooooooooooo tedious it felt like I spent 5 hours X_X

it is not bad luck its fake drop rates. most missions i need to run 30-50 times to get the stupid "20%"chance drop. often the red mod even drops sooner
