You are the one that implying to hunt for a specific item like it matters, such as a glove, but claiming that a shiny random primal amulet would entice you to equip it. The moment that happens what you once tried to target is out of scope.
That amulet dropping doesn’t mean you never encountered any other ancient amulet,nor ever will. A random badly rolled amulet doesn’t mean it worths keeping or augmenting it either.
Why are you giving deliberately bad examples when player clearly need an amulet to the point of a random Primal amulet suffices but capable of successfully hitting Greater Rifts with very high blood shard efficiency?
You sound bored, maybe you should try? I think you need sleep. I wouldn’t talk about statistics to a fridge for example but you really went outta subject as if you have no grasp of context.
It never was overrated. You speak as if finding a primal item you didn’t want ends anything. This is where you steer out. I’m talking about find the several duplicate of same item from a thousands, you question if you found an unrelated item in a smaller sample size which is irrelevant to the scheme. You must have found that amulet several times before, and that doesn’t affect or impact your chances of finding a good Ancient glove or amulet.
To sum up the scales of scopes, I’m talking about lightning striking to a specific point on a park at up coming three months on a stormy day, and you’re speaking about finding a penny on the walkway to your home today. It’s that different, which is hilarious to even think about.
Your sample size of a few hundred is merely a day’s farming; I speak about months of grinding where you find several Ancient items of the same type. In the end, according to the possibilities, you would have a better chance finding an Ancient to replace that Primal at terms of efficiency.
Primal only rolls once in a few hundred on average by a large scale, on that term, a quality that rolls one in ten would have a higher possibility to have a very good combination.
If you want a specific Set glove, you can find it as a Primal variant or not; out of ten thousand items you would find around 500 or so of the same item with varying quality, this is a given. Between those 400-500 duplicates there could be a primal or a really good ancient that no Primal can go near.
Statistically speaking, between those several Ancient items you have better chance to find a very good Ancienty to replace whatever trash Primal you could have equipped. That is the scope. What are you even meaning about with “but what if an item you didn’t want drops”? You just reevalute the numbers for that slot with its own terms. That’s it. What kind of thought process you have?
From the very beginning the question is whether you should keep the bad Primal or not. Thus, even asking the question of “what if you get a primal you don’t want?” seems really odd way of perspective. When you talk about an unrelated slot, you simply go out of your way and claim statistics are overrated which it never was at any point.
You claim a small sample size which worths merely a day’s farming would be reliable, then act as if it guarantees small occurrances, which it doesn’t in reality by the way. In a large sample size, I can put the scope anywhere I want. In a smaller sample size, just like 400-600 items, legendaries/Sets whatever, any kind of statistic doesn’t warrant it. More likely that you might have never found a Primal between 600 items you looted or gambled. Just because you try to steer it to a smaller scale, doesn’t mean it’d be a surprise or a miracle when you found one though. Just it’s out of context.
Either you don’t understand or really need to stick your head in the fridge in this hot day. Perhaps both. Your example speak of a very small sample size, ofcourse it would be meaningless and out of context when you shift the measures. What kind of frivilous manner is this?
I’m saying that consistent gameplay over the course of months curb the bad RNG down. On a single day, you can rummage through near a hundred legendary/Set items; speedrifts, bounties, key runs. There could be really godlike drops at Primal quality as well, but if you get stuck to a Primal which you deem as “bad” that is kinda on you.
Combination of affixes make or break the item but that’s not a black-and-white concept unless you are pushing with that character. Anything that helps you sustain abit, is all good. If you are hitting GR150 Solo and complaining about your main character’s items still, I really have no idea what to tell you for instance.
You get the primals you need within the first 100 paragon drops. Bliz has an algorythim. After that they decrease.
If you change from GR to Rift, Primal chances increase.
Grinding after 2k paragon does not give needed primals for class.
If you want more primals, make new character.
