Grachnist no longer dropping Shrunken Goblin Skull Earring
 

Please check. Can provide pre and post patch metrics (large datasets) if required. I'm down maybe 12 or so earrings (given history). Totems, skulls, and glovesglovesgloves dropping normally.

my experience is the same, 30-40 grachnists no luck.. only 1 totem and rest gloves

well going from my experience in camps like this i done my lord pains khukri it took me over 40 hrs for my stone key from the mob droga

imo welcome to everquest )

I wouldn't have posted this if I weren't certain that the rng was out of play here.

121 and zero drops. That's statistically impossible (given the previous drop rate).

I take it statistics isn't your strong suit, as it is absolutely possible, and not even extremely unlikely for that matter.

I didn't say absolutely impossible. I can figure the odds, if you'd like, based on about 15,000 datapoints from my logs. It's infinitesimally unlikely.

I looted the earring yesterday, after about 3 Grachnist kills, was maybe there a couple hours, was surprised, sunk way more time looking for the bandit lord to get a bracer for an alt than I did the earring.

Wow! That's good info and thanks, baloen. Maybe I'll give the fort another look now. Yeah, the bandit lord is a beast to get to spawn in the first place.

Right now, I'm 0/128 on Grachnist kills. My longest dry spell heretofore was 0/24. I suppose it could be a silly rng, but I have to believe that something's changed. I'll check again now, though.

If it's a 3% drop rate, then 2.5% of all attempts to get earrings will take that long. That's just unlucky, not even close to statistically impossible.
