So I have on an ilvl 370 7th Legionnaire’s Chain Drape. I did the assault today and got an ilvl 370 7th Legionnaires Chain Drape. I did the Stromgarde Warfront quest and got an ilvl 370 7th Legionnaire’s Chain Drape. This RNG bullcrap needs to go Blizzard. I swear!!! There needs to be a better form of ways you recieve loot. Maybe a less likely chance of receiving the same loot from the next two or three loot rewarding tasks? It’s not asking for much in my opinion. I miss when loot had a % drop chance and not this RNG nonsense.

I’ve gotten the same pair of gloves 3 times on my DH alt from the assaults. Three times in a row.
I guess the same goes for my cloak since I got it yesterday. So, three times in a row for me. Today I got it twice more. That was my breaking point…
What’s the difference between “a % drop chance” and RNG?
Aren’t both just “roll the dice” and see what the results are?

Certain items would have a specififc % drop chance all of the time. For exmaple, a weapon in a dungeon could have a 16% chance to drop. RNG if I am correct makes it that the % chance for it to drop is always different. If I am wrong, somebody please correct me.
In a sense they both work in a similar way, but with a set % drop chance that is always the same, you’re more likely to see it drop I believe.
I try to throw RNG a curveball.
Whenever I do a quest where there’s a turn in for an item with a level I could use, I swap my spec to something else before turning in the quest.
So far, it has worked once. Out of about a dozen tries.
You could say that would have been about the same chance had I not changed my spec, but if RNG is going to keep being fickle, I’m going to do everything I can to make it work for it.
That happened to me last week. Three cloaks.
Then I do an invasion two days ago, gives me another one. Only this time it was 390 TF. This game is just weird.
You’re wrong. RNG is the exact same thing as drop chance in this situation. The chance of RNG working out in your favor for that weapon is 16%. That’s what that means.
Isn’t there some algorithm that prevents high chances of getting gear for slots you need it for, and to give you more variations of what you already have so you don’t outgear the content too fast?
Like, I only ever get the same slots. I only got weapons when it was weapons caches. Never seen rings or trinkets. Only ever Azerite, bracers, gloves and cloaks. Nothing for the other slots.
Dont feel bad most of my characters are looking to up grade three pieces or so, that never seem to drop, but keep getting duplicates, So they are stuck at 340 or less on them all over five months.
This invasion just now gave me upgraded pants.
Indestructible pants.
I hate this game sometimes.
I get a ton of belts. My character will never, EVER have to worry about pants being too loose for her.
I’ve got repeats so many times.
It is mainly cloaks, main 2 hand weapon, shoulders, chest, etc for me.
It would be good for dual weilders getting weapons but for everyone else all you can do is sell or scrap.
At least you did not use a bonus roll to get… drumroll please… the same piece of loot you just looted.
I thought you had to get at least 10 of the same item before you could post about multiple “random” drops of the same non upgrade gear.
Yes. It sux.
It doesn’t feel random or like progress to me.
I keep getting stupid 1h mace/axe from my assault cache. I think im at 7 now? I want dagger…
