Random eq Lvl 60+3x Lvl 80 = 20% for exotic. Is this actual or something changed? I’ve mixed about 8 times and I haven’t received any exotics so far. I read this info on wiki.

20%

%

See that symbol? It’s called a Percent sign . It implies that the value in question is a probability , not a guarantee.

It does not mean that 1 in every 5 “uses” of the mystic forge will upgrade the rarity.

It means that, if you were to use the mystic forge an infinite amount of times, the more you used it, you’d have a pretty good change of getting closer and closer to a 1 in 5 “success rate”.

In short, it’s a random chance, not a guarantee. RNG is RNG.

I know but I’m asking if it’s actual before I’ll mix more items.

As far as I know there has not been a documented change.

There is always the possibility of a bug, glitch, or undocumented change, but 8 cases does not constitute an appropriate sample size to draw any significant conclusions from.

Also there’s very little reason to mystic forge rares. The rate of return for your investment is kitten poor unless you’re extremely lucky. If you want a precursor then your best bet is to MF actual exotics, as precursors are considered a somewhat “superior” quality within exotics, like “exotic 1.5” AFAIK.
