Reading this brings back memories of the old days - one in specific.

After clearing FoW with 2 guildies and a bunch of semi-balance heroes over the course of a few hours, we finished. I'd been holding out hope that all the shitty drops I'd gotten in FoW would hopefully, possibly be compensated by an at least decent drop from the endchest.

The endchest didn't give me anything. And I don't mean that it just gave me something shitty like a few diamonds, it literally gave me nothing. That was somewhat annoying.

My futility in the quest for mini's continues...

Celestial Rabbit, etc./wik/traveller minis:
GW = million err billions
ME = 0

Monies wasted 1-1.5million. Could be more since I haven't kept track with gott.

This time I went through close to 1200 lunar tokens to get just over 350 lunar fortunes and 0 rabbits out of them. The 1st batch of tokens went well with the 50% return off rock paper scissor. After that I noticed I wasn't even close to 50%. Last stack I traded in trader at probably the same ration sans blue sugary drink.

I like the randomness, but damn you gw.

Well, my only complain with drops is the outmoded system.

In my 5 years of playing, I only got 1 (ONE) maxed drop in Prophecies, and 4(Four) in Factions.

In prophecies, it was a +15%^Stance Foehammer.
In Factions, it was a pair of Dragon Kamas with +20%-50%HP, an amber wand, and amber staff and a jade bow.
Not once in my life I've found a shield or focus with maxed base and two maxed properties in the outmoded system. NOT ONCE.

That goes waaaay beyond statistics. That's just insane. The should inject more skin in prophecies and a few more in factions so we don't get the same long sword again and again, and update them all to the standard.

I got a mini Yakkington the second week that Nick was around. I'm pretty sure that was the game going "Here you go, some nice luck. Now we're done with you".

Best I've gotten since then is a few kegs and a Walking Stick.

~200 zkeys on the chest, and while I got some nice weapons, they were nice in terms of "I can use that for a character/hero", not "someone will buy that". Also a handful of elite tomes and a lockpick or two, but that's it.

Managed to get around 200 Lunar Fortunes together this year and didn't get a mini, was mostly afking Nine Rings though.

Been playing for 4 years and still haven't had the chance to add a Rare mini to my HoM, I swear, sometimes I think this game hates me.

May sound a little crazy, but I have 10 toons, one for each class. Three of them get all my lucky drops, the rest never get anything worth while. Don't know if its random or what class they are. My three lucky ones are monk, ele, and necro.

Cleared everything I could in UW with a solo Rit in HM and got nothing. Not 1 ecto, not 1 black or white dye, not 1 ruby or sapphire, not 1 gold.
