For example some monster drop only 3 things (can probably roll 3 times Runes 17 TC if they are able to) while others like Mephisto can drop 6 things which are crucial information to do the math. But there are two things missing:ġ.) I need to know what's the probability of a A5G (see post above what that is) drop for a specific monster (post above specifies only a range not the exact pro: it says 1:150 up to 1:5)Ģ.) I need to know how many items from a monster can drop at maximum. I found rune drop rates here on reddit and information how the drop system works: It also will answer questions like 'How often do I have to run countess (in the mean) that my chance for an IST (or some different rune) is at least x%' and stuff like that.īut I need help. (Seriously, what's up with cows and their drop rates overall? They're terrible!)Īccording to what I've read, Lem runes are supposed to be able to drop as soon as Act 1 NM.I want to write a little python program that calculates rune drop rates depending on Players X settings and the specified monster (for personal enjoyment -) ).

I've tried running NM cows but the 2% of the time they drop anything at all it's always Ral / Tal or similar. I've tried running NM Countess a shitload of times but the best she's ever dropped is Io, though I did get 1 Ko from a random monster in her chamber before too.

The best runes I've been able to cube up so far are 3 Ko runes, but I also have 2 Lums and some Io / Hel runes in the stash. He has a Hand of Blessed Light that dropped off Pindle but the VoR would be excellent for my build. I'm looking for a Lem rune in particular to make my Freezadin a Voice of Reason. This is especially true since I managed to snag a HoZ from Meph the other day, and will likely need better stuff like this to survive in Hell. I didn't want to go to Hell just to go back to NM later and have it reroll shittier maps. The thing is, the way my Andy / Countess / and Meph maps have generated they're all extremely easy and short to navigate for general farming and its awesome. I'm playing offline SSF and have beaten NM Baal and can move on to a Hell playthrough if I wanted.
