I’ve got TWELVE unid torches and all I got 4 Nec 4 Sin 2 Barb 1 Pala 1 Druid

My question is: Is the chance of getting torches the same for all classes? I wanted W or S torches but no luck :/

rng

I'd stick to only buying keys or organs to many ppl converting torches that can never be wl

whats that 3 letter abbreviation all the goofy lookin overweight redittors say?

Math is cool

8 classes, equal chance of torch rolling any given class

6/8 chance of NOT rolling sorc or lock on each torch = 75%

Chance of it happening 12 times in a row is..

0.75 ^ 12 = 0.0317 or about 3%. You were unlucky but it's still reasonably possible. Womp womp. Sorry

On this note, there's an entertaining scammer accusation going on right now. Someone IDed 22 torches and is upset about no lock torches. The odds were even better than your case, a little over 5% of that happening. I have no idea whether it was a scam or not, but it's pretty crazy to get accused of a scam over RNG.

They don't want randoms trolling in there and distracting from the investigations

It's funny cuz he claims he got 8 warlock torches out of the 25 torches he previously bought.
The chance to roll 8 out of 25 is 0.67%
Much lower than this 5% chance of not getting any out of 22 (5.3% actually)
So he should be accusing the guy who sold him those 8/25 lock torches, cuz these odds are so improbable that this look more suspicious to me
