Rng

This may have been discused already but i looked and cant find it. Has something been done to the RNG? I have a fletching skill of 252 already accomplishid the expert fletching trophy, and made 120 shadow tiped arrow combine attempts (trivial 268). Had my trophie in my main slot and not a single skill up. only failed 4 times. This is a bit off with the way the skill ups have been scaled. I understand there are times we go through some bad runs but 120? especially when im not talking about a skill of 280+ but 252.

it happens.. it's normal. some people have gone HUNDREDS of combines without a skill up.,.. sometimes they get back to back to back skill ups... that;s the nature of the RNG..

Don't let it get you down.

Even with 355 intel I've experienced bad runs of over 300 combines without a skillup in pottery twice, and over 100 commonly. In JC I've had many runs over 100, several over 200, and one over 300 without a skillup.

On the flip side, sometimes you get several skillups in a row. I had a long run with no skillups at 249 fletching, then all of a sudden had 5 skillups from one stack of combines.

In the long run it sorta balances out.

Which is exactly what you'd expect from a RNG.

And thus spake the Coder...

"Yea and verily shall there be no more discussion of the RNG, for it is fair....

And even if it wasn't, you wouldn't really be able to tell anyway."

The worst bad luck run I had with the RNG involved over a thousand (1000) combines to get from 199 to 200 in brewing with a 255 Wisdom. so yes I can personally attest that they do happen, they do suck, but they get better.

ps. I think its on the forums somewhere, it was a few years ago.

RNG does odd things...at 250 base skill, 262 modified, did 40 combines of Juice of Quellious without a failure (triv 280). Later that same day, 227 base skill (no modifier), failed 20 Slarhilug Stuffed Poppers in a row (triv 282). Both were oddities--should have failed a few in the first, should have succeeded in more than a few on the second. /shrug You take your luck as you find it.

Hmmm... 4 skillups in a row near the 300 mark... and you jinxed yourself. You will probably end up making 8,000 combines just to get the last few skillup.

Absolutely right.

The RNG is sentient.
The RNG is evil.
The RNG doesn't like you.
And. . . The RNG reads the boards to see what you say about him.

Typical, happens in baking, never tailoring...

[Bobaten]

You missed this then.

[Ysall]

Definately a fake. And thats what I'm going to keep telling myself. Either that or I'll cry.
