    The formula for probability on repeated events P = 1(1- q) factored by # number of attempts 1(1 - drop chance/successrate)x number of attempts 1(1 - .20)⁴⁰ = well it's 99% that you should have gotten by that point lol That's the simplified version It's easier to do backwards but my keyboard doesn't have a key for the Nike symbol for root

  • [quote]5 possible drops, so 20% drop rate technically. 1/40=2.5%[/quote] I don't get it. If there's 5 possible drops then each time you get a reward with 5 possible drops it's going to be a 20% chance. Doing an encounter multiple times is just rolling the dice more times but the drop rate will be 20% each time. More attempts gives you more chances at getting the 1 in 5 rewards, it doesn't change the drop rate.
