Not everyone will get a list item

Gonna abridge a post I read on this subject in April, which took 6th grade math to sort out.
From Bubbb:
There’s 1440 minutes a day.
That means roughly 51 assassin/PH spawns a day.
Let’s say Named spawn rate is 25% - that’s 13 Assassin spawns a day.
75% drop rate on common item? 10 Guises a day (9.6 using these numbers).

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think there’s 5 months of Guise?

10 guises a day for 5 months?
Roughly 1500 guises. Plus or minus even a few hundred puts it at just shy of 2000 TOPS, by the previous calculation.

2600 players during surge hours means there’s someone who wants it more, who will take days off work, who will put family 3rd, who will get it for their 3rd or 4th alt.

Cringey self quote cringe, but apply this to these 30 hour manastone camps.

My rough estimates sitting at the EE camp for 2 days.

Same math as above roughly 51 spawns a day - maybe 1-2 less if you factor in kill time.

lets say 50 for easy math. EE seems to spawn fairly often but not quite 50/50 feels closer to 40% lets say 20 Evil Eyes a day.

Manastone drop rate I'm going to guess is 10%. This gives us 2 a day on average... factor in variance you are left up wards of 1-2 days with no drops and up to 4 drops in a single day when lucky.

6 months x 30 days x 2 per day average = 360 stones total.

I'm running an enchanter. I don't need Manastone or guise. Jboots would be nice but not essential. I have the thex dagger because, eh, it took 20 minutes and why not. Rubi BP would be nice for twinking, but pretty sure it'll be gone before I'm of a level to camp the Avatar.

But I want those boxes of abu'kar. Which is of course not listed.

So all around a big meh.

Guises should still be no problem. They're far less useful than manastones, they're no drop, and they drop 10x as often. If you aren't *super* casual and can hit 35 in the next few months, you should be able to acquire one pretty easily.

Got Manastone on 36 Monk just FD at camp waited my turn to loot item.

Would go for Guise with same technique if it was not a No drop.

It blows my mind dude... It absolutely blows my mind.. People are that committed to an item in a game that turns your health into mana.... Think about that man.. Holy fuck.. Days spent- For an item that takes part of a red bar, and adds to the blue bar..

In a way to gain this mana increasing item in game you gotta sacrifice your health irl too.

This is actually totally false.

What does guise being no drop change?

All of the poopsocks will have their mana stones in the first month. This gives normal people months to go back and grab one with a normal camp.

On Red99, I got 2 mana stones just because I was passing through the area at the right time and he was up. I gave them both away to guildmates with worse luck.
