Hi, I got 4 ascended boot chest drop from different fractals this month. Is this a bug and did this happen to anyone else or am I just unlucky?

RNG is RNG. That’s all, I’m afraid.

Welcome to the horrible RNG of this game! You only got 4 (I got 6). Oh and I got so many duplicate fractal skins, while hoping to get those I don’t have. It’s a shame a game where there exists the concept of collections can’t use that information to influence the loot drops to avoid redundancy.

Fractal skins are definitely pure RNG. There’s no reason why any one would be more or less rare than another.

Armor boxes, I’m convinced, are weighted differently in the drop table, and there’s plenty of evidence to support that. Ask anyone who spams fractals and they’ll almost always have an abundance of shoulder/boot boxes and far fewer of the others. It probably looks something like this:

Boots/shoulders: common
Gloves/helm: uncommon
Chest/legs: rare

It’s still RNG, and it’s still annoying as hell, but it definitely seems intentional, and it also makes some sense, given that chest and leg armor are the most expensive to craft, so they’re rarer drops.
