Why are Niko missions so rare?
|
Compared to Alva or Einhar, Niko missions reappear far less frequently. Also, Niko missions tend to disappear from the atlas when you encounter them randomly in maps, while that isn't the case with Alva, Einhar, or Zana. Is this intended? I've gone hours of playing without running into Niko, whereas I always bump into Alva or Einhar after at most half an hour.

In my purely anecdotal experience Einhar is by far the most common spawn, following by Zana (yeah, she's all over the place - I'm not complaining!). Niko & Alva are far behind. Alva sem to spawn slightly less, but I'm not sure, I might be not noticing her cause I do not care about Temple, but I do care about Delve (= introduces bias).

It's because 95% of the sulphur deposits got mined last league, leaving very few left for Niko to find :/

I get Niko popping up on just about every map I do. I'm talking a 95% rate. And I hate the mines. But I'm going to have to start doing them because I can't seem to get any maps appropriate for my gear/level.
And the white guys says, I'll have a Coke then.

R.N.G.
I see Niko far more often than that beast guy, he's pretty rare for me. Zana shows up as often as usual, and i almost never have the right map available for my daily missions so i usually dont get to do them. Not that it matters much with how often they all show up as surprise encounters. |

" 24с each. Thanks! |

Keep meticulous records... or don't. If you choose not to, your "feelings" will always side with stuff you want being more rare than stuff you don't.
My guess is that they each have a 10% chance. The problem with a flat 10% chance is it's not unfathomable to go 50+ tries without a hit, and not getting any sulfite for 50 maps is pretty much unacceptable. There's the daily quest. And that resets every so often and at least once a day. Make sure you're running those whenever possible. Last edited by Shagsbeard#3964 on Dec 19, 2018, 8:28:56 AM

" 1 in 12 chance actually. GGG posted the numbers you have a 1 in 3 chance of a master randomly appearing and 4 masters... Of course whichever you are looking for will always be the most rare one. Always. |

" I fail to see your point. 24c is nothing if your goal is to do Delve. If not stop complaining about RNG. Niko appreas as much as he appears and that's that. Delve is not the core mechanic of the league and you should not be ablee to sustain it without investment. 1. Get scarab 2. Do T16 with Scarab 3. Run delve 4. Get Currency 5. Repeat 1-4 "Never argue with an idiot. They will take you down to their level and beat you trough experience."
