    No it's intended to mean purple drops.

    I think that's what they meant.. or I really hope that's what they meant. For AF3 the terminology was spelled out:

    Dropped Gear: Uncommon, Rare, Epic
    • This dropped gear will make up the least powerful gear sets in the episode, in the rarities you are used to: uncommon (green), rare (blue), and epic (purple).

    why is green uncommon ? shouldnt be it common?

    Ummmm.. Not sure.

    Maybe because no one equips green gear unless they have to, so it's uncommon? :confused:

    well it's not working correctly, because I just ran 2 bosses in the strykers island alert, got nothing and then went and did "scarecrow" in the arkkham island alert and got nothing but blue, should it not have guaranteed me a scarecrow cleaver or a scarecrow helm?

    edit - unless of course the bad luck limiter only works on bosses capable of dropping a purple in the first place, which means I'm now on guaranteed drop.

    Was a nice try, not working as intended. Just ran the wayne manor Duo and got nothing but green gear. Any chance I can get that rare piece i was promised? ...

    No it works as I stated, I just ran oan sciencells and got the choice of star helm twice on evil star on first boss.

    so it's a guaranteed purple drop off every third boss that is capable of dropping a purple piece in the first place it would seem.

    therefore the duo won't give you anything because no duo bosses are capable of dropping a purple.

    Post said drops started at 5:00 AM but Steam said it just started, so all of us who ran earlier must pay to to run again . Sneaky Mepps, sneaky.

    It started at 5AM.


    The bad luck limiter is only implemented in modern raids and alerts, where purple gear drops.

    Thank you! This is appreciated. Maybe a lot of people on the forums already have full sets, but there are a lot of us out there that don't.

    Also, I appreciate the name of the event, "Favor from the Gods"! :)

    No, the common ones are the white (light blue) items you mostly get when you start a character.

    Please see here for all the details about rarity:
