I've been levelling up a priest for last few days and been noticing some really strange rolls..

When rolling need i'm never rolling over 30, i've lost EVERY single roll.

Greeding is the same, i lose every roll.

The only time i get loot is when nobody else rolls on an item.

This isn't just a few dungeons, this is 15+ dungeons. (I have 4 reps to revered mainly through dungeons)

Did i miss something in the patch notes?
 
This is concerning info. I'd have to think better of Blizzard than that. That's the sort of thing that would discourage starter account players from getting into the game and eventually purchasing the full version, and I think Blizzard smarter than that. I do have a warlock on the rise so I guess I'll see for myself what the case is.

I strongly dislike it when people do this. "OOOOOOO tsk tsk blizzard, I'm going to be condescending and (misinformation/assumptions/generalizations at hand) complain about how they do everything wrong without trying to do anything constructive about it."

OP: it's all RNG, there's no damn conspiracy
 
We appreciate you trying to bring a concern to the community, however...

1. for statistical relevance you should have allocated a larger sample size.
2. you should have utilized a t-table or possibly a q-reference test to predict sample error.
3. if you can not figure out how to do number 2 refer to number 5.
4. if there was a 'roll' issue it would have been found and posted by now (2 weeks after a patch).
5. you should refrain from posting conspiracies -> NASA never went to the moon INC!

I mean no insult... except for numbers 3 and 5. =P

Just messing with you; in all seriousness, you just have terrible luck.
I just logged in and tested my rolls in a dungeon: 91, 47, 58, 73, 27, 62, 9, 83.
The sample size is incredibly small, but I am having numbers way over 30 and a mean around 50.
Nothing to cause me to worry or have to do more research.

I have lost zero rolls in GW2. For WoW you'll just have to farm, glhf.

I can't help but think you've completely misread my post. I have every faith in Blizzard., and I was clear with that and that I'd get my own data. Wtf is wrong with you? Go take a smoke break.

Edit: you all do realize that by sharing the OP he's making an attempt to increase his sample size, right?

Guys,

This was not meant as a conspiracy theory.

I've been playing this game for way too long, the last year as f2p. I've never known not picking up a single blue or green in dungeon run after dungeon run before.
Just seemed strange especially as this was the first character i'd really levelled after the mop patch.

If nobody else is seeing this then it must just be me with very bad luck.

That fishing hat better drop 1st cast on Sunday:D

You're correct, I misread. I'm accustomed to skimming unless I'm reading a novel or arguing with Critster, so I skimmed. Still strongly dislike people who do what I was trying to describe, it simply seems you aren't posting like one of them.

I've often wondered if Luck is a hidden stat in this game... Nine weeks trying to catch Keefers on this one toon, while every other toon I've tried for it on has caught it in a MUCH shorter amount of time.
 
just did SFK today, with all party member with full BOA
i did won a green shield(roll94) at start.
won need(19) 1 uncontested engineering plan
lost the greed roll(74) final boss drop feline mantle,
overall, most of my roll are low, but certainly not at the bottom.

perhaps i will try another lowbie alt for select need option and see how it is

if it there is a bug, it should be fixed today.
hey, for the last 2 days Sun Rock Retreat inn don't give the rest buff
just fix yesterday after reporting it. there alwasy bug after big patch.

or probably RNG hates you.

But if they never went to the moon, don't you think they would've made up at least one more awesome accomplishment since then?

Or maybe it's all a clever way to make people like you think that they went to the moon because they would've done something else by now.
