Did they remove the Boot enchant: Damage Penetrates 10% of Enemy Elemental Resistances ?

Cause I've run about 30 labs during the last 2 days (using Twice enchanted prophecy so I'm at 60 tries) and have yet to see the damn thing.
I thought they're just 15 enchants on uber lab - easy farm I guess.

Joke's on me.
Is the game rigged?

Don't think so.
Well, this is stupid.
Helm enchants are supposed to be the nightmare of lab farming (as in do NOT attempt that, just get a helm with the enchant you want)
But boots enchant with a 15 possible enchants and not getting the one required after 60+ tries (not to mention the guy above with 131 LOLOLOL), ruining 2 days of playtime.

Awesome game design!

Thanks a lot GGG!

Bleah, that's what happens when you add RNG to RNG to RNG ... to RNG and then you go overboard with even a couple more RNG layers...

That's not a proper way to add difficulty to PoE, it's actually the worst way to compensate for that...
PSS: Our almighty TencentGGG overlords are very scrupulous regarding criticizing their abilities to take proper decisions and consider everything "needlessly harsh and condescending"...

Good to know "free speech" doesn't apply in any form or manner on the forums these days...

And it finnally happened, after 90 tries.

RNG IS DEAD!

Long live RNG!

Closing this topic (or maybe not, GGG might consider upgrading the enchant system to not push farming to the "next level").
I'm on the 4th day of spamming Lab for this damn enchant... I don't even want to know how many I have to do for my helm one... I'm sick of this Lab farming.

I recently farmed for that enchant, and finally got it somewhere around the 40th to 50th try. The PoE wiki indicates that two boot enchants have lower weights than the rest: the penetration enchant, and the chaos damage enchant. Both are given weights of 25, while all other enchants are given a weight of 100. While no explanation of the weights is given in the wiki, the numbers suggest that the chance of getting the penetration enchant is around 1 in 60.
