If you mean the drop chance from bosses, only boss kills count toward that.Hi, can someone help to explain what this means. UO wiki says "equal" is related to GSS, but what is condensed?
Also like to know if killing the monsters on the Doom side apart from Gauntlet, does it count towards the GSS or only the bosses in Gauntlet?
None of it matters, I'm in the group that believes that some accounts are simply "tagged" to not get drops of any kind. I've never gotten any, on anything, since ever.
Sounds like a day in the life of Atlantic.I think it would be hilarious if it were true...say if the devs had a "Curse of
Not only would you get no loot, you would do -1 damage, no crits, no skill gains, take double damage from mobs, and for no reason you would suddenly drop dead at random intervals. NPCs would tell you that your breath stinks like a ratman whose had too much moldy cheese.
It's not a thing, some people are just unlucky just as others are lucky. It's just how it happens. If it didn't it wouldn't be random.In every MMORPG there is "that guy" who thinks he has a bad loot seed, or was cursed by a GM...and will never get a drop. Coincidence or fact? Had a friend in WOW that was convinced this was true of his character as well.
I think it would be hilarious if it were true...say if the devs had a "Curse of *insert name here*" debuff they could place on naughty players. If cursed you would have to go on a long, tedious quest to get rid of it.

In Minecraft, there is an add on that lets GM's turn the naughties into a potato, and other hilarious curses.
Me too.... won't go down there now... it's garbage.I miss Doom.
I know a guy who regularly gets crap all the time.... that's not just random "luck" .... it's disgusting. Self same guy got two ornies off two consecutive DFs...It's not a thing, some people are just unlucky just as others are lucky. It's just how it happens. If it didn't it wouldn't be random.
Thank you for your time, this helps a lot and it makes sense.Referring to this?
Artifacts – Doom Gauntlet – Ultima Online
So, all the of the items that are listed as "Condensed" all fall under a single drop
1. Random Recipe
2. Prized Artifact
3. Bow of Infinite Swarm
4. Gauntlets Nobility
5. Glenda
6. Hat of The Magi
7. Leggings of Bane
8. Midnight Bracers
9. Ornament of the Magician
10. Ring of Elements
11. Scholars Halo
12. Shadow Dancer Leggings
13. Staff of the Magi
14. The Deceiver
15. Random Condensed Artifact
So you have a 1/15 Chance that when you do get a drop that it picks one of these. If it lands on the condensed slot, then it picks one of the condensed items at random. Looks like there are 25 condensed (Could be wrong I am tired).
So your odds of getting a specific Condensed artiact are 1/(15*25) or 1/375.
Hope that helps
from my experience, it differs per character. I have one char who gets drops like crazy in lady M but never gets anything in doom or champs and is only average at others. Also have characters that do extremely well in one place but abysmal at pretty much all others. It seem like the loot drops i get, it never gives the character i am on something they can use, but rather it gives loot for other templates. My mage gets good drops for fighters and my fighters get good mage drops ect...I know a guy who regularly gets crap all the time.... that's not just random "luck" .... it's disgusting. Self same guy got two ornies off two consecutive DFs...
It is luck. There are two elements at play here, one being perception, which is often highly flawed, leaving people (due to incorrect/incomplete information, and/or selection bias) with actually average luck to believe they are "cursed".I know a guy who regularly gets crap all the time.... that's not just random "luck" .... it's disgusting.

Yes, same as Blackthorn also. This would allow us to select which arty to exchange for. However, it is not exciting as the RNG drop system.The best reward systems are the Tokuno Treasures and Kotl city events. Most of players like them. We have a lot of game contents but the rewards are outdated. Remaining at 10 years ago. Perhaps the future publish should revamp the reward systems to this style.
Do you solo the bosses with the same 2 chars?On two different accounts I have two identical toons wearing identical luck suits. One rarely gets a drop the other consistently gets drops. I figure the RNG hates the one and loves the other
