Bozja Drop Rates Have Changed

Since the last maintenance, Bozja drop rates for clusters changed.

I'm not crazy. I know they didn't mention it, but this can't just be a coincidence.

Before on top middle near the third camp, it would take 3 hours to farm clusters for one hair or mount. I know because I farmed them last week and weeks before and it took hours even with our group split up farming top, bottom, and mid at same time.

Giant mob pulls would result in 1 or 2 clusters or maybe none at all.

Tonight? Got like over 30 clusters in 20 minutes.

Every giant mob pull has had 3-4 clusters each.

They ninja'd a change.

Anyone else experience this?

Probably not, rng is often weird and unpredictable. I did it twice for like 30-40 minutes pre hotfix with 34 the first time and 12 the second.

Idk, RNG is RNG. I'd have to see some actual consistent data, rather than "this night was slower than the other ones."

Probably just RNG gonna RNG. I've gotten like over 60 clusters in an hour before from the robots near the base camp. It's not that out there. But other times I've had less success. It's how it goes

I quite CLEARLY said I know it was not announced and that I figured they ninja'd a change in.
There is no reason you need to go and quote to me something I already read and mentioned.

100% RNG being RNG. When I do mass pulls, I sometimes got 5-6, other times I got 0.

No, they didn't change it. You're making an assumption. I've been in plenty of cluster farm groups and got between 10-30 every 20 or so minutes. I've gotten enough for atleast 3 mounts now from the shop for 180 clusters each, and this was all farming before I had surgery a few days before Halloween.

Why get aggressive when he's quoting the fully accurate developer patch notes and all you have to prove them inaccurate is a 20 minute sample from one person?

What are you experiencing is RNG being RNG. Peaks and Valleys ftw

It's really hard to say because we humans are very prone to confirmation bias and other forms of seeing patterns where they don't necessarily exist. (Anyone remember the "JP method" for the original relics, where a lot of people thought the droprate increased at certain times because they happened to get one during that time, and in turn told other people?)

It's possible there's a change that didn't make the changelog but as certain others have said, to really know we'd need to see a wider data set. I really won't complain if it was actually increased, though.

I get aggressive because it's not required.
It's the equivalent of someone shoving a manual in your face after you've already said you read it and were talking about something else aside from the manual.
It's redundant.
The only reason one would do it is to try to be a know-it-all and treat the opening poster like they were stupid.

I clearly said I ALREADY KNEW it wasn't in the patch notes.

You're never gonna make a case for yourself by acting like a child throwing a temper tantrum when someone simply provides info to reiterate a point, just as a by the by.

Also RNG be RNG. Claiming rates have changed just because you're suddenly having better luck now than before is what's stupid, frankly.

People make mistakes just own up to it. No need to get defensive.
