Been lurking your thread for a while, it being the most interesting part of d2psj rs-section.
You should probably double-check your math on bandos as you calculated each armor-piece as having 1/125 individually, netting a total of 3/125 for ANY bandos armor-piece. In the thread you linked it was stated that they had a shared chance of 1/125 to drop ONE piece of armor (each having the same 1/3 chance to drop once rolled). The individual chance for each armor-piece is then 1/375 from boss, and 1/16200 for minions.
This makes it ~111k per kill.
My understanding is that the individual drop rates are 1:125, as was posted by Mod Ash.
What you're talking about is like Nex drop rates, you get something every 30 kills, but it's 1 in 12 random pieces, each with a DR of around 1:400, making it 12(favorable drops total):400, can be broken down to 1:33. Bandos has 2 favorable drops per 125. If they wanted one Bandos piece to drop per 125 kills, they'd all have drop rates of 375, and drop in even amounts.
E; May be shittily written, at Bandos ATM
