Boss Drops

Just my two pennies worth, but one boss item that doesn't seem to have dropped at all in the game in the last 3 months is Armageddon...is it just one of those skills that may as well be bought from shop and stop holding out trying to buy in game?
 
I'm dubious to that also scorp i do a round of noob bosses atleast twice a day I'm 165 and I only found ignite recently I think I was 160+ when I finally gave in and bought arcticblast, though I paid gg for suanni when I reached that lvl and iv found that skill x5

Just to point out - in the case of some items they are more likely to drop to someone who is in "need" of them. Berserk for example would have a 5x higher drop rate for a warrior that does not have it. Attempting to farm them with a higher level character would be tedious

I always had this suspicion.. got this feeling when i realised that i get more rares when hunting with lower lvls.. so always suspected but couldnt prove..
This system is true for designing items also right?
 
Me being me, couldn't help but go and test this properly.

Testing on a couple of kills, even if it's bosses, is never going to give anyone any answers, the chances of drops are so low you'd need to kill thousands to get an accurate picture.

Thousands seemed like a lot of work, so I stopped at 600... figured while it wasn't giving completely consistent results, it was showing enough patterns to give us an idea of what's going on.

First I went on Zade, killed 100 yobs and 100 scarecrows and counted the books that dropped
From 100 yobs I got 15 fireball, 26 fencing, 23 healing
From 100 scarecrows I got 20 fireball, 25 fencing, 28 healing
I got a total of 137 books, and the split was 25.6% fireball, 37.2% fencing, 37.2% healing

Then I went on Vajayjay, a level 106 store char of mine that hasn't learned fireball, again I killed 100 yobs and 100 scarecrows
From 100 yobs I got 39 fireball, 10 fencing, 7 healing
From 100 scarecrows I got 46 fireball, 12 fencing, 14 healing
I got a total of 128 books, and the split was 66.4% fireball, 17.2% fencing, 16.4% healing

Interesting pattern, similar number of books in total, if anything you'd have expected more from Zade with my 80% drop rate, but it's clear there was some kind of bias towards the books Vajayjav found being fireball rather than the other classes

I then repeated the test, killing on Zade, with Vajayjay grouped and shift locked to me
From 100 yobs I got 22 fireball, 25 fencing, 28 healing
From 100 scarecrows I got 16 fireball, 21 fencing, 22 healing
I got a total of 134 books, and the split was 28.4% fireball, 34.3% fencing, 37.3% healing

A statistically similar result to when I went on Zade alone, suggesting shift locking and grouping has little or no effect

I just provide the numbers, you guys can draw your own conclusions or completely ignore, your call
 
Goo enough to convince me.. 66% is a good number

Just to make the numbers a little clearer from my results, I thought this chart might help

Damn you're good! Thanks for the time and effort Zade. You couldn't of picked a better test style really. People hunting for celestial armours and killing one boss or mob and de kitting expecting a celestial armours to appear from the drop are absolute morons lol
