Loot from Adventures

[JorgeJR]

I have a problem with the posted percentages for the different types of loot you can get in each slot from the adventures. If you have a 50 chance of getting either ewood or granite then you should get granite at least one third of the time (ie once every three adventures). This isn't the case so I believe that the posted percentages are wrong or misleading and I would like to see this problem addressed.

i wasnt aware of any adventures that had a 50% drop rate. cempire.org has some pretty good tables and they are pretty accurate.

I got ewood 18 times in a row before; however, i have logged my drops and overall have gotten pretty close to the same amount of granite drops as ewood. (currently 56 ewood, 53 granite drops since i started recording)

Some research into the laws of probability might prove interesting.

JorgeJR, My stats are posted for this and I thank you for bringing this to my attention. What level Player are you if I may ask in game.
I'm just curious, because, I at one point never did get granite, and all of a sudden I leveled and now I get granite all the time. I think it
could be perchance your player level. But do not quote me please on this, because probably wrong. Purely coincidence on my part most likely.

I will now though, go here-
http://www.siedlertools.de/wiki/Hauptseite and in German ask about this. If you
do go to the link above, there is a discussion part of the wiki, where your question should be posted. I will see what I can do for you there.

German server is correct.

The percentages are just there to give you a rough understanding what things you can get out of the adventure.
Just because there is a 50 percent chance to loot granite, it is not defined that you'll get granite every second or third try.
It is just for orientation.
The value "percentage" doesn't exist in the game. Only the term "priority".
It's definately better to translate the "priority" values to "percentages" to give the users a better understanding of the chances.

If you roll the dice there isn't a rule that you'll get the six after six tries.

The system that is used to determine the loot is slightly different than you would expect.
It can be your tenth adventure where you are just getting exotic wood.
A big factor is luck and luck can't be influenced.

So far.
