    For a statement like this to be taken even slightly serious you need to include your statistical analysis with a good sample size and tell us what rates you think are not evenly distributed. A good sample size is somewhere around a 1000 drops. What you did her is starting with a false premise and then asking a question based on it. And I am a software engineer btw

    Edit: If you mean the chests on first boss of Coil, the devs have admitted that the loot tables in them are skewed and will be fixed. It's still fair RNG which item it is, but the tables are not populated in a good way. So if that's what you mean, then here is the answer.

    I have a sample size of 1000 titan runs with 30% of drops being SCH book.
