fast nur Obsidiane für Steuern // nearly only obsidians as reward for taxes

Post by GolfLima »

Ist das so gewollt und normal:
in den letzten 3 Monaten gab es 29 Obsidiane & 1 Saphir in Galmair

Diesen Monat gab es auch zwei Chars, die 0 Obsidiane und dafür 10 Saphire bekamen. Gab auch welche, die 5:5 bekommen haben. Hattest also vielleicht nur Pech. Irgendwann können wir mal wieder die Daten genau analysieren, um die Verteilung zu prüfen.

This month, there were also two chars getting 0 obsidians and 10 sapphiers. Also some got 5:5. So maybe you were just unlucky. Sometime, we can check the data once again to take a closer look at the distribution.

I have brought this up before after a massive drop that netted Dan 150+ Topaz and maybe 5 Amethysts. Very often I seem to get topaz and no amethysts. When this was last brought up it was pointed out that the overall distribution within town is 50:50 and it should be an encouragement to interact with others in town and trade with them. To me it seems a bit extreme and even a 70:30 distribution on a character would be preferred.

OK,

kam mir nur etwas komisch vor, aber wenn es auch das andere Extrem gab scheint es normal zu sein. (( wenn auch m.E. nicht unbedingt wünschenswert ))

seems to be normal than

I like the current system of different distributions since it actually encourages the exchange between chars who got different gems.

The system's name is "random" :-).

I'd really like to know what is in fact the bug you claim?

Over all player of a realm and all time the distribution of magic gems is 1:1. That means the total number of latent magic obsidian is equal to the total number of latent magic sapphire. (same for the ruby=emerald and amethyst=topaz).

Even if you take any other action into consideration (treasure hunting, gathering ...) the number of is equal if we talk about long term and large numbers. So random will work for a MMORPG like Illa is pretending to be but not for a ORPG a lot of player take the game for.

Where's here the bug?

it is only a bit confusing if you get one month ONLY obsidians and another month ONLY saphires
