RNG doesn't hate you

[Garlyle]

Its easy to sit there and yadda yadda yadda about how you know so much about being in a situation, but you aren't there, so you can't possibly know how terrible it feels t be in this situation. This system is BROKEN and needs to be completely redone. So you can shove your math. You can't possibly know how it really is for some of us.

See here's the thing about the RNG: It's random. It doesn't love you or hate you or love some people or hate some people. It literally doesn't care. It doesn't discriminate. It just rolls, again and again. The math's not wrong, and the system isn't 'fundamentally broken'.

I get that it sucks. But the RNG isn't actually to be held responsible - it does its job. If you want to argue for a variable drop rate for atmas however that steadily increases the drop chance after repeated failures, however, sure. That would help reduce - not eliminate, but reduce - outlier case frequencies that negatively impact players. Hell, I'll likely back you on that request.

It isn't random, it is based on an algorithm which means... If you try it under a specific situation, you will always get the same result. And since you can't choose your seed (unlike with things like dice), you have little control over your results aside from brute forcing.

I think one thing that's important to note is functionally, it might as well be random. I highly, highly doubt that PRNG is seeded separately for each individual player - instead, the same 'queue' of PRNG-developped numbers is likely used all across the server, pulling every single time it's needed. The only way you'd ever be able to manipulate such a thing even slightly would be to be the only person online... which isn't going to happen, let's be realistic. It being a PRNG is merely an academic distinction, not a functional one.
