I'm pretty much in that same boat, I've pretty much decided to just take it slow and mostly wait for the next patch cycle to finish. Just cos if their is one thing I learned from SE over time, is that the next patch cycle will nerf anything RNG in the current patch cycle as the more hardcore players move on to the next RNG heavy content.
I think there was some talk regarding that back when people were running palace all day, back before SE tweeked the chest. Something of the sort that the higher your level is, the better chance the silver chest wont explode/ will give you a better chance at +1.
With all the sneaking, i dont think the new method can test this out correctly running even hundreds. Though the older runners pre-chest tweak might be able to clear this up.
I think this was one of the reasons why we wanted to kill most mobs.

Every boss should be guaranteed +1/+1. Even if you geo nothing from chests, max of 6 runs per weapon.I think there was some talk regarding that back when people were running palace all day, back before SE tweeked the chest.

People have come up with all sorts of mad theories about this event because it's absolutely crammed with RNG.I think there was some talk regarding that back when people were running palace all day, back before SE tweeked the chest.

One of the worst I've seen was someone attempting to rush through the floors because supposedly it made it more likely to get better random floor effects, whereas taking too long would cause you to be more likely to get penalizing effects.
You just know that some of these people are the type that hold Up and B while doing a handstand every time they throw a Poke Ball.
So was Diadeam, now no one gives a hee-haw about it. This one will be the same.
I am just sad they try hard to make stuff and it just gets left in the dust within the next patch or less.
They gotta fix this stuff already. These side things they try to add just dies so badly.
You can only trial and error stuff so much before you can finally find what works...
I don't think this will be the same. Only 1/4 of it is out at the moment, there are 200 floors planned, more will be added in upcoming patches.So was Diadeam, now no one gives a hee-haw about it. This one will be the same.

ran into a dude who was like "how does the upgrades work? open one and hope for the best" considering i get high level upgrades from floors 1-10, maybe it really is just that. we all know what a ffxiv 97% gathering/crafting rate is like. I swear everything is 50/50 unless its guaranteed 100
