Haha, I realize this is very unlikely given that the game's RNG is not random whatsoever. It's nice to believe it is though.

I don't know if anyone caught it but there is a very, very slight chance remaining of 0.1% left in my analysis. (The numbers as stated only add up to 99.9%.) This would be the probability of getting 7 or more manastones in a day. It's probably less than that due to rounding, but I thought I should point it out. My guess is that it's probably never happened on any server in EQ in history, but who knows....someone may have a story to tell.

I've seen some really weird coincidences in my time on this server.

One time I camped this torpor dropping mobs for months without it dropping then it dropped 3 times in a row and then it turned out 4 out of 5. It was unreal.

And I've seen this happen a few times with big spells. It drops once and then it drops again or two times like the next mob.

Is it possible in the slightest that loot is not as random as we may think or have the stats been officially found?

I’d rather have 53 hours to have fun than camp a legacy item in classic emulated Everquest. Y’all acting like this is your first time.

As 30+ year old adults, how do you find time to sit at your PC for 50+ hrs straight.

I am amused that after years of trying to discourage account sharing (understandably so) that they implement a system that basically guarantees that you must do so to get the best legacy items.

Eliminate AFK checks.
