    if you get 1 bronze chest per floor, then its ~50 potsherds per clear + the guaranteed ones (in potd)
    At least give proper numbers lol. On a good run you can expect sets above 100 to yield ~4 potsherds if you open every single chest. Sometimes its more, and its not uncommon to get less. My recent whm run i got 3 total from 141-170 (opening all chests btw). However you need to account for potions used, while 4 posherds is usually potion positive, its not always the case if you want to go hard or want to feel safe.

    Actuall % chance on floors above 100 range from 23% to 45% (not every floor has bronze chests either, floors that have big potsherd chance have 10-15% chance a chest is bronze)

    If you run 51-200 in party you can expect 6-12 potsherds going to you (they are randomly distributed between players) guaranteed one included.

    If you go solo, sure you will get more (mentioned 4 per set) but you will also spend potions which cost potsherds, unless you specifily farm for them which is not fun and time consuming, and that leads to my point - fuel for your fun runs is also considered a 'reward currency', meanwhile what should be reward currency is just gathering dust in the inventory.


    I took the data from https://www.ddcompendium.com/analysis.html#drop-rates
    Even more telling is the %chance within all chests, ranging from 3% to 10% (about 5.6% average) and about 60 chests per set (coming to 3.3 potsherds per set).
    For chest amount i looked into a few dd tracker files some score runners posted on angelus's discord (and score runners basicly pick every chest as they give points)
