Some RNG Questions...

A pure RNG system surely means that there is a chance of never getting any set pieces, never getting 6 set pieces, or never getting set pieces within the tolerance of the player. So...

 

Have BW made an assessment of how many command crates the average player will open without finding a set piece before quitting the game?

 

Similarly have they made an assessment of how long a partially geared player will wait to complete a set?

 

If they have, are there mitigation processes in place that will ensure set pieces are included in a command crate before these assessed limit are reached?

 

If the answer to these questions is no, then I fear for the game's future as tanks, healers and DPS all have a chance of never getting geared or never getting fully geared before their tolerance level is reached and they leave.

 

Additionally, in the game, are there any hidden character stats that deal with luck that would affect crate content? If there are these can’t now remain hidden from players and must be opened to inspection.

There is no source of "bad luck protection" or anything to sway the RNG numbers in any form to favor unlucky players once and awhile to make sure they don't fall behind the curve it's random every time. They haven't made a full on gear chat other than that obtaining set bonus gear shouldn't be easy, even though it depends entirely on luck, grinding, and time spent, rather than skill or completing a challenge.

 

I did hear if you bought cartel items that you may get some better luck however :rak_09:

That'll be the next Cartel Market item: RNG Luck Booster - increase your luck by 50% when opening a single Command Crate, only 250 Cartel Coins each, or 5 for 1000CC.

 

Of course an extra 50% on a 1% chance to get anything meaningful is still very, very horrid odds.

 

All The Best
