Hi all we are National Servicemen Fulltime [NSF], a tight knit guild of around 20+ for now.

As of now we are a casual, PvE-centered, fun guild based in Fergusson’s Crossing (NA) with dungeons and future raids in mind. There are no restrictions on which home-server you are on as we welcome all players. Veterans will find a place with us as we regularly do PvE content and PvP/WvW occasionally. We would also be a good place for new players to start off.
We are a Singaporean-based guild, but we welcome the global community. Because we already have members of diverse ethnicities, we only communicate in English.

We are on all the time, but our guild events usually fall on Fridays and weekends. We understand that each of our members would like to still have some time for themselves and progress at a more personal level.

You can look for my name in game or apply to us directly at http://nsfguild.gamerlaunch.com/

Looking forward to see you in Tyria!

I wasn’t trying to be snide earlier, but the info you offered initially and even now cannot help you get the answers you want.

Apologies if I misread the tone of your post.

I think I should clarify my intentions too. I am aware of the RNG statistics with the Mystic Forge, I know it can be very brutal with people tossing in hundreds of exotics with measly returns. With that knowledge in mind, I have never seriously done any mystic forge farming due to those chances. Since late 2013 I’ve been tossing any surplus of rares into the forge each weekend.

Me: 30-40 rares every weekend, taking into account my hiatus from June-Dec 2014
Friend: Started Forging in May 2015 with say 25+ misc. rares per day into forge to this date

Because my friend claimed to have gotten 3 pres in a short amount of time. I wanted to see if anyone knew whether he met any conditions to allow a higher chance on pres.

Judging from all the kind replies (thanks all) looks like he just got lucky?

I got him into the game after I came back from a brief hiatus. If I were to put a number to his attempts, that would be 25+ random rares in the forge per day? Would be very immature for an adult to be lying. Guess those were just his lucky days.

Do a little reading on statistics and come back with a more compelling argument.

I wasn’t making an “argument”. I am fully aware of the statistics, and looking around for any other possible explanations.

So a friend of mine recieved three Sparks from the MF in a span of less than 3 weeks? Been on this game since 2013 and never gotten a pre from bags or forge. As much as I am happy for him, I get really frustrated everytime a new Spark gets linked on my chat.

Is this purely RNG loving him and hating me or is there something hes doing right? As far as i know hes been throwign in random rares obtained from SW and has a magic find of 85%.
