This has to be a Bug! (ATMA)

[Morphiana]

I'm farming my adorable little BUTT off to get these stupid crystals and SE has the BALLS to put 2 crystal drops in the same zone each with a 1% drop rate....so that one the rare happenstance you GET a stone there's a 50% chance you can get one you ALREADY HAVE!

that's right people, I have TWO Scales stones...when I need a maiden and a scales...


this is STUPID! Why are this stones not EX so you can only get one of each. I will never repeat this quest, it's far to tedious to be worth it on more then one job. <.< I feel completely robed.

Drop rate is actually far worse than that.

[Undeadfire]

The drop rate is 2.%-3% roughly, going lower and you will never see it.

[Caraway]

Drop rate is actually far worse than that.

Highly unlikely. It's more likely to be around 5%. People just get caught up in the fallacy that 5% means that if they do something 20 times they should get it within that period; whereas the truth is each time you only have a 1 in 20 chance of getting it at all.

If you want to see what sub 1% drop-rates actually feel like; go Card farming in Ragnarok Online.
