    We need to talk about the Stuffed Bom Boko

    First of all...it's cute, okay. It really is, okay? okay. Get it out of your system now because it's time to rant.

    SECONDLY, before EW, I used to get at least one "common" dye minimum every week, as long as I sent all 3 of my retainers on hourly ventures, over a period of 3-5 hours. I used to also get one black or white at least once a month. Sometimes I'd get lucky and get those every two weeks.

    I'm not getting any of that now, even with my retainers wearing EW's AF gear (they're all combat jobs). But I am getting the really cute stuffed bom boko alot. Something has happened in the rng coding of the Quick Exploration. And while I utterly and completely despise the "Am I the only one who bla bla bla" question...(deep breaths) I gotta ask. I gotta break my own code and let all the cells in my body recoil in cringe:

    Am I the only one that's getting this sort of rng from Quick Exploration?

    EDIT: Btw, I forgot to add, I'm not even getting common dyes anymore. Haven't gotten a single one. Forget black and white, I don't even get weird Woad Blue dye or something like that.

    I haven't seen dyes or minions since EW dropped. Mostly random dungeon gear.

    Gotten plenty of Stuffed Alphas, though.

    It appears that they locked the venture coffers behind lvl 90 retainers. I've only gotten 2 or 3 of them since capping one of my retainers though. Working on more at the moment to hopefully increase my chances.

    My retainers keep bringing me back excessive numbers of Bom Bokos since the launch of EW and at this point I'd rather they bring me literally anything else.

    *Gets comfy tinfoil hat* If someone from the cash shop department received any information regarding rates and quantities of rare dyes the playerbase got...a ninja patch to edit rng values could've happen.

    But really, the bom boko invasion has gotta stop.

    Hmmmm, I dont recall a venture box for a while now. My retainers are not yet 90 I think they are lollygagging on the beach.



    One Bom Boko so far, 15 Alphas. 2 pieces of Augmented Cryptlurker, and a lot of other junk too.

    I've also been getting those stuffed Bom Bokos quite a fair bit. I thought I was just hated by RNG.

    After that venture chest was added I got less dyes, could be bad RNG but you never know.

    I've gotten coffers and one white dye, but yes, an AWFUL LOT of bom boko.
