    While all mounts and minions collections are public on the Lodestone, how do you even get 3rd party reliable statistics on hidden by default things like titles, stuff and emotes ? If i don't show my achievements and use another title, how can people guess i have rare ones ?

    Even the 1,3 centurio tiger and 0,6 triceratop percentages looks like too low for me. I have the two of them and i am not even that much into hunts to begin with. With the amount of dedicated hunters there is, it must be way higher.

    As for the top 3 rare things i still never succeed to get :

    - 3 x 10 000 mgp at the mini cactpot;
    - the max prize at the jumbo cactpot;
    - 3 lines in the khloe's book.

    RNGesus is way less forgiving than any savage or ultimate battles XD

    I aim to make my posts engaging and entertaining, even when you might not agree with me. And failing that, I'll just be very, VERY wordy.

    I say it's pure luck because
    -no disconnects for all 200 floors, this can be the most deflating thing as it is usually outside your control if happens
    -room types, get exit in treasure room 5x in row on floors 170+ kiss your time or pomanders goodbye
    -Pomander drops, they are random what ones chest give you and whether they are mimics or not
    -mob distribution, starting room has 3 entrances 4 chimeras incoming, hope to whatever Kami will listen that the one you pull does dragon 1st and the others don't see you
    -trap distribution, this can be mitigated by following the walls but sometimes they are just in the way
    -Debuffs, these are completely random what ones you get and some are more ideal than others, and there can be up to 3 of them.


    There is a good amount of skill involved as you need to know rotation, what mobs are ideal to deal with, range of attacks, attacks that can be stunned/silenced etc, but at end of day it is pure luck that will determine whether you get to floor 200 solo without good enough luck you will fail.

    So players that have reached floor 200 solo were just lucky. Right.

    I do have my FC lala who tried that really hard and i can confirm from myself, while im surely not as good as player, the amount of luck you need is just too much. And after my dc at a solo try on HoH I gave up on that until they either finally nerf it or gave us a better way to save it.

    It says that 0% of players have the 'Alpha Wolf' Title when there are players who have that title although extremely extremely rare. I saw an Au ra dude with it years ago tanking Wanderers palace Hard mode, that's what prompted me to look for it. So this poll is definitely wrong here.

    Edit;

    Oh and what do you you know, I was afk in limsa and ended up finding the guy LMAO

    These sites take information from lodestone profiles. If you set it to private, you’ll never be picked up and counted in the stats.
    Only SE results can get around this as they have database access. But they’re more interested in telling us stats like the most NPC sold item or something.

    Even if the site isnt 100% accurate it will still give you a pretty good idea about what mounts, achievements etc. are rare and which are more common - infact with SE not giving us the actual data, its the best idea we can get.

    Also: You might want to block out that name - just to be on the safe side. While this obviously isnt close to any naming&shaming thing, its always best to block any names except for your own.
