Neck evolver drop rate

Saw my 9th neck today, I personally have 7, nearly 100 missions, so at or above 9% seems decent for a drop rate. Some people just have crappy RNG. Also, and this could or could not be a thing at all....but I use a rogue/bard to disarm every mission chest before opening it.

50 missions here, 0 necks. You have extraordinarily fortunate RNG!

For those that can get through FF but not Hero's, I will say my drop rate is higher from the FF mission than for the Hero's mission.

From the thread, basing the drop rate on *one* person's anything is probably a poor idea. At your 9% drop rate, the chances for going 0 for 50 is point nine percent. I think there have been enough postings in this thread (and my own data) to show that you've been extremely lucky (not Tolzol lucky, but who is?).

The data posted here is still showing 2 to 5% IMO. Assuming it's on its own "appearance" thing (if it is bundled with other things, then it would depend on how and how many other outcomes there are).

And if disarming the chest has anything to do with anything, some devs might want to duck...

I'm fairly lucky on all the evolving drops and I always just attributed it to the disarming of chests >.<

I'm now at almost 80 missions, with 4 necks. The only chests that contained a necklace were missions with zero mercs. Yeah, weird observation, I know, probably has nothing to do with anything.

Edit: Inspired by Allayna, I will try to bring a rogue to disarm the next mission chest.

I've got 4 necks to drop, always use 1 merc.

I don't think I've run one with a merc yet. I got my first one finally on mission 72.

I have seen 5 drops in 98 mission chests ~ 5% drop

Had a bad string of about 30+ with no drops. Was beginning to thing it was busted then saw 5th today.

I've seen 5 neck drops in 10 chests. Obviously a 50% drop rate for everyone who is this good looking, as good looks disarm the chest. It's either my good looks or amazing skill. #GitGudScrub

I'm about to start mission 50. I have seen 1 neck drop.
I am not wearing it.
Sadface. =(

ETA: Mission 50 down. No neck.

Saw one drop today in the very first mission I did! I didn't know what it was for so I did not roll on it.

9 now in 112 missions (8%). Had a dry run of 40+ and a dry run of 30-ish. I've finally got what i need and taking a much-needed mission break!

i neck drop in 80 + mission , far from having a 9 % drop rate

I wouldn't believe it. threads like this always have someone showing up to brag about how great they are.

2 in 36 and counting.

So is this thread proving or disproving a need for Dev intervention?

Hopefully, they take the complaining to heart and when they do the next 'rare' chase/grind items they do something different.

I've just had my third neck drop (3/75 now) all three have been in FF.

It's proving that requiring the RNG be the entry point for an evolving item is just awful design, no matter what the drop rate is.
