My best loot was Aplphas Howl 1 week later Rainbowstride and i play a lot 5 hours a day trust me it is complete RNG.
Not a "godly" drop by any means, but last night I was running a few maps and four of the six gems that dropped for me were Shield Charge. The second made me raise an eyebrow. The third made me laugh. The fourth made me go to global and ask whether the RNG was actually even intended to be random.

I recently went three weeks without any uniques dropping for me. Dry spell. In the last two days my streak broke with four uniques dropping. What are they? Two Goldrim, two Doedre's Tenure.

We know GGG uses an "entropy system" for dodge. Have they stated that they do not have any such controls in place for drops? And if there is that sort of system going on, is it so inconceivable that you might get locked into phases where it's more probable to get certain drops than others?

Hell, that could also unintentionally be the case if the RNG's pseudo-random is insufficiently actually-random.

I know the statisticians here are screaming "SAMPLE SIZE TOO SMALL." I know how statistics works too, and know intellectually that nothing in this thread is outside the realm of random chance.

Still, you have to wonder.

The same day I found a soul taker farming, I continued for a couple more hours, and found bringer of rain also. And 2 unique maps + a meginord's girdle. About 30ex total value worth of stuff, including the orbs from chaos recipes. Another good day like this and I'll be able to buy a 6L shavs for a low-life freeze pulser I'd liek to make.

I shit you not, another Shield Charge gem just dropped for me. This now makes five of my last seven gems.

Added thought: we know for a while chance orbs had entropy built into them. You could be assured a unique if you scour/chanced an item enough times. Is it inconceivable that such is also coded into the RNG for drops?
Once upon a time, I am blessed by RNGeses and used to find unique(s) for each map.

After that, I am back to normal ...

I tends to belive that RNG is maniplated for attraction.
Similar experiences:
1. 2x exalts (also 1 or 2 GCPs and a few chaos/regrets) dropped within one gaming session for one levelling char. No exalts dropped before or after that for me EVER.
2. Have not seen an unique in 2 months (not running MF on purpose, hate the farming stuff), then 5 (admittedly crappy ones) drop for the same char within an hour! Then no uniques for a month again, then another streak of 3-4 uniques for another char, then nothing again since then.
Very nice sharings guys, VERY GOOD!

(chances? maybe)


Another shield charge ahaha. You know what i felt after making this thread and getting the smae flame totem with the same quality..


SO, conclusion : You have the shield charges cloud above you above your char.


We can divide clouds by 2.

1) The short clouds : Currencies clouds / Uniques clouds.
2) Long clouds, clouds specific to one char( 1 account ? ) : Gems clouds.

That's what we gathered till now, i will update the original post.

the good drops , and i mean all of them , are from my 0 mf characters.
I have played both mf and no mf characters equal time , i wont spend my time anymore mfing


Could the IIR of one of your chars attract clouds to one of your OTHER CHARs ?

What heppens to me sometimes is the following :

I have XX IIR ( not that high), i play with a char in the same act/ probablt same area a good amount of time.

I go check an area in another act ( typically a lower difficulty), BAM : Unique drops!
Did you experience this in the past ?


Sometimes when i need to rush someone or someone wants to rush my low char, either of us gets a unique in the way of rushing.

Could that mean that his IIR on his area/his difficulty attracted some clouds that were not big enough to drop anything where he is, but were perfect for the new areas he went on ?
