Is there any validity to the idea EQ has particularly "streaky" RNG compared to any other form of RNG?
Genuine question. I tend to think it's just people getting mad over bad luck, but then I was doing the druid epic a couple months ago on green and I was on the foraging part and I foraged like fifty "roots" in a row.

I've seen this with Treants in SK. Probably shouldn't admit to doing those since it's not true classic, but I have. have done them for hours/days and never came close to death. Effortless content. And then randomly a Treant spawned that was so gangster that I legit couldn't even kill it and had to log on my main to deal with it.
Or like the loot in LGUK and Mistmoore. Got multiple TBB, FBSS, HBC in a matter of an hour and a half, then had other instances where I spent days camping them and never saw anything. Not a complaint either, I think the extreme rare nature of loot is what made EQ cooler than games like WOW where everything is cookie cutter and handed out for free.
