I’ve been playing off-and-on since release, with a few extended breaks, and I’ve noticed that when I come back from a long break I always get better loot.

The first time I noticed this I had stopped playing for about two months and then came back and joined the Queensdale champ train. On my first run (about an hour) I got both the Genesis and Lord Teasars Shadow. I played daily for about two months after that, mostly champ training, and never got anything else decent.

Then I took a multi-month break again and just recently returned. Again, I got on the Queendale champ train, and on my first run after coming back I get another Lord Teasars Shadow as well as Chorbins Chest which gave me my first ascended weapon. I’ve been on the champ train since then and have got nothing else of note.

I’m wondering if anyone else has noticed they get better loot after a long break, or if we can write this off to coincidence.

I had 10 months off and came back to discover the queensdale train, doing it daily for 2 months or so now.
I havent got any drops of note, certainly nothing at all like you got, i havent even seen anyone link those in chat.
I think you have been lucky.

You’ve had remarkably good fortune. My loot is bad whether I take breaks or not.

RANDOM number generator. It is RANDOM. 100% Random. Not changeable at all. Nothing you can do can modify the RANDOM number generator. Any sort of pattern you see, is in your head. Other games can have the RNG modified by doing little things such as attacking yourself, or using all of your items. This game doesn’t have that though

Restore that which was lost. And all shall be as one.”

100% Random.

No such thing.

Most generators a pseudo random, so not 100% random

I stopped playing after ascended. Will return for an hour today to check OP version. But I personally doubt that drop depends on break.
