    numbers like this will skew the percentage.

    In order to obtain a definitive % rate you need to find out which darklight piece drops from which chest in which dungeon specifically. Then start taking numbers of how many times that piece dropped from that chest. In the end you will obtain a corresponding to each individual piece and their corresponding chests = /thumbsup

    If you throw in all of the other treasure chests into the average who don't drop the darklight gear your % rate will be entirely false.

    I was under the impression that Dark light had a chance to drop from every chest in CC. I could be wrong.

    But each chest must have his own % of drop each piece. I mean, surely SE make some piece harder to get than other one.

    Highly doubtful. My assumption is that they only drop from final boss chests. A specific piece from a specific chest would be my guess.

    Well I can tell you for sure that it is not only the gold chest that drops dark light, because we've gotten double drop from CC.

    I thought there was a compiled list of which pieces have a chance to drop from which chests. I saw it some where...

    Fairly sure all chests have a chance to drop it, its just a specific piece connected with a specific chest.

    I think this is true insofar as Final Boss Chests are concerned. I don't think any of the chests before Final Bosses will drop darklight gear, rather I have seen veteran, explorers, etc come from these.

    I could be wrong though since I haven't seen any darklight drop in my pts yet. I am just guessing.

    Yeah, I wasn't talking about chests on the way to Chimera/Morbol.

    Was counting only the chestS from final bosses.

    MMMMkaaaay

    But still, i'm sure there is a different % drop rate for each piece for each chest.
