Seasonal rings

[theProphet]

Just wondering again, out of 21 seasonal rings, 3 people were able to loot 2 pieces (again).

Why in hell does Mindark think that this isn't broken and working exactly as supposed?

i heard so many cases of players that open 10-20 seasonal boxes and get the ring , meanwhile me always unlucky with the boxes, i didn't open tons but for instance im close to 2k christmas with a 200 ped ring (i saved so much peds from those candy vs hyper 10 so it went well :p )

As someone that’s opened tens of thousands of boxes and had never seen a pink/purple box, while watching others that only opened few hundred or less loot one or multiple rings, I can’t say that I feel bad for having a little bit of luck. I think joda was also in a similar situation when I went on entropia life and looked at past ring drops.

However, like many things in entropia. I would agree that the box system isn’t optimally designed. I don’t really know anything or figured out some kind of trigger, I just got lucky. All I can say is, your time will come

it's ok that everyone's time will come some day.

i'm just pointing out that it doesn't make any sense, that it happens twice in a row in the very same season, EVERY SEASON.

it reminds me a bit about the 2 ubers in a row issue. broken by design knowingly, is it that?

Upon careful analysis there seems to be a strong correlation between players who open tens of thousands of strongboxes, and players who loot multiple rings. Not enough evidence yet to determine causation, but correlation is definitely there.

in my humble opinion that's wrong, because a fuckin shitload of data is out there available to everyone, my dear friend.

after some more analysis, i can give ya an example...

out of the rare item data on EL, messi looted 100 rings totally (no. 1 total-rings position ofc), and someone else looted 8.
messi got 2 halloween rings, the other one got 3. rofl! 3 halloween rings out of 8 rings totally ... muahahaha


another example, another guy. looted 10 rings totally, but looted the same amount of 2 halloween rings as messi (100 total), joda (58) and azzah (21).

it just doesn't make sense, or "their" RNG is trying to trick us. or simply broken, haha, who would expect this?

do i really need to mention that 99.9% of EU players loot exactly zero seasonal rings? really?

[theProphet]

and then, if i would tell ya, that some messi'ed people should really loot more seasonal rings, just because of some basic math rules and stuff, then you'd call me crazy, a fanboi, or a paid troll poster.

right?

[theProphet]

PS: i looted 7 rings totally, and 1 xmas ring out of it.

i'll continue research on the other seasonal rings the next days...

i don't expect anything to ever change though, like some other longterm techguys and developers i know IG...

in the very very end, it becomes a trust issue. fairness in EU is maybe like mayhem or goldrush scores, you can either believe in it, or you don't (anymore).

but hey, let's improve graphics!

4500 open box is never had a single ring since 2019, not even an L, but I understand that some must open more box than me.

Opening rings on website with the strongbox opener wont give you HoF*, so EL cant track it, its not 100% accurate, we dont know how many rings were really looted.

*Sure wont give you for Ares, what i looted, ofc i cant be sure about seasonal or unique rings, but probably the same.
