Grothdarr Shoulders Randomness
Billzargo
Soul Shriven
I am just wondering if this is broken... I keep going to Glirion in Stormhaven and every time I open a Sands and Madness Coffer I get light Tremorscale. It is not even the fact I am getting, it is always light. What is the chances of something being random if you get the same thing 6 times? I have opened 7 coffer's and got a light Grothdarr and 6 light Tremorscale, I am after medium Grothdarr.
Is this broken or am I doing something wrong?

✭✭✭Some people spend 100+ keys on those 5-key boxes trying to get the proper shoulder in the proper weight.
Which is on par with what people used to spend on the 1-key boxes trying to do the same, except you got way more loot along the way.
The argument so far is that it is bad RNG. If it's broken it's hard to tell because of the RNG factor, no matter how unlikely the outcome you got.
If this is the very first shoulder you are after, I suggest using the 1-key chests for a while. Along the way you might get good shoulder/weight combos for other sets, plus other loot.
Also, watch the Golden Vendor. Eventually pretty much every helm and shoulder shows up.
Because some events have used Undaunted Keys for currency (e.g., to sell style pages), if that interests you, you might want to keep a number of keys in reserve, maybe 50-100. It won't be fun farming that many keys within an event window to buy what you want.

I am pretty sure they still didn't update the loot table, so zaan/thurvakun/vikosa/balorgh/symphony/stonekeeper/knighmare won't be there.0 -

At least Balorghs Helmet was sold by the Golden back in November.1 -

Huh, nice, then I might be wrong.0 -
That said i still believe that the dropping chance is not completely random but with different odds for different items. That concerns not only the Items sold by the Golden but also Undaunted chests and the drop of overland sets.0

Sorry, @Paramundo, it is pure RNG.

Hey Taleof2Cities,
but your post does not proof that it is random. Is there any official statement on drop chances?0
