(the latter which should be extremely rare if there wasn't streaking going on). Most times, when I've done this, I'll get an ASOS, then there's about a 50/50 chance of either no AOS in the next 10, or 2-4 more in the next 20-25. If you get an Ancient, or add 5 more MIB to open each time you get an ancient until you go 10 without one, then stop). Sunken Cargo: 6706,5986 Old Chest: 6427,6424 Plundered Safe: 5561,6235 Lost Soul: 5871,6224 Discarded Strongbox: 5625,5685 Weed Covered Vase: 6031,6509. However, one of the ways fishermen have learned to 'game' the broken system is to get a bunch of MIBs (about 50, in a pouch or crate in your pack) ,then open about 10-20.

And, with the streaking potentially happening at all points, that meant that a sample of 100k or more 'pulls' was going to have streaks at all levels, making the streaks disappear into the mean (as every result streaked at some point).ĭraconi was working on a fix on his own time when he was laid off in 2009, and we've not been able to convince the Devs after him that the problem exists, as they just run the big tests and not look at smaller subsets within it. Before then, they just ran tests of 100k-10 million samples, and looked at the total results, not local tendencies within the sample. Draconi figured it out after we finally explained it to him with observational data that allowed him to actually test for it.

The issue is that the UO Random Number Generator is VERY prone to streaks of similar numbers in the short term - at ANY point in the curve. noun Architecture A decorative sunken panel in a ceiling, dome, soffit, or vault. ship and this box is, in turn, connected by a reel to. Has anyone else noticed the loot quality being notably lower in the 2102-hued chests? Or have I just experienced a unlucky RNG roll in each case? They found the sunken wreck, and its strongbox, but were unable to remove. The buoy is connected by a line to the strong - box of a APPARATUS FOR MARKING SUNKEN VESSELS. So it would seem that, though much rarer, the 2012-hued chest are almost like a 'rusty' version of the chest. I don't remember not having refinements in a 0-hued golden chest, though I couldn't say that with 100% certainty. And the 2012-hued chest had no refinements (i.e. In the case of the 2102-hued golden chest, it was mostly Lesser and Greater Magic items, whereas the 0-hued ones seem to be mostly Greater and Major items, with the occasional Lesser Artifact. In the 2102-hued barnacle crusted chest, the loot was mostly Greater and Major Magic items, whereas the 0-hued ones seem to be primarily Artifact-grade items (mostly Lesser & Greater), with some Major and Greater Magic. It is hard to make a definitive determination from just one, but I noticed in each case, the loot was notably lower grade. So, I have managed to get one each of the 2012-hued barnacle-crusted and golden treasure chests.
