@bigboi: just learn some basic math and statistics please. Flipping a coin has a 50% chance to be tails, however flipping two coins doesn't guarantee you'll get a tails, and neither does flipping ten coins. Thanks for the feedback tho.

If i flipping coin 100 times, outcome is most likely close to 50/50. With 15%, the change is every 1/10 times i get it guaranteed or the 15% change is a lie. So i want proof this work, proof that this is really 15% or proof that i'm unluckiest guy in the medianxl ever, because i used atm +22 oils >__> feels so good. ah i loving this butthurt feeling..... pls fix

Please avoid double posts. Also as Marco said the fact that it only worked once in 32 tries doesn't prove there is a flaw. In fact the oil could have worked all 32 times, or none at all, and it still would prove nothing, although it would provide decent indications.

This aside, if you tried many times with the same amulet then just know that because of the way d2 engine works it won't work. You must either find a new item every time or reroll it

you're probably a kid who doesn't understand statistics. so just trust us when we say it's normal, it's just random.

THERE'S NO GUARANTEE. if there was a guarantee, everyone would be playing lottery because everyone would win. but most of people don't win, and that's how the lottery companies earn money, they earn money on the people that don't win. if everyone won, the company would be out of business and no one would make lottery games because they aren't profitable. even if you played lottery your whole life, you probably won't get anything (you might, but it's not guaranteed, it's just random).

that's like saying you want a SU to drop out of *every* monster because there's like a 0.05% chance for it to happen. ridiculous.

there's nothing to fix. what has to be fixed is your understanding of statistics and your attitude.

the only thing I can see going wrong is if you're cheating and trying it on the same item all the time, in which case it won't work. If I remember correctly, if it fails on the item, it will always fail, since the chance is rolled with the item, not when you cube.

Well i'm not kid, but when i get mad i turn out to be one. rolling good amulet +30hrs and add blessed oil on to it makes me feel this is unreal. I just want to know why it's 3.125% to me, 5x lower than actually change is. not sounds very legit? does this game even have good luck, or it is good luck to have correct x% what doc say? just delete my messages after this.

Edit: oh is that the case? i rollin just one ammy with renewals. so is this the reason why im so unlucky?

there's something I don't understand about diablo players: they will go to great lenghts to explain why a particular uber or challenge is "cancer" but they will do it anyway for hours/days/weeks like they have no choice at all in the matter

if farming special box is such a pain in the ass for you, why are you doing it? just use normal oil of luck and call it a day


edit: when you use oil of renewal the chance to get lucky is reset so you're just unlucky

as gekko said, if you're rolling it with renewals, then the chance gets rolled again every time. so you get a new chance every time. keep trying or just play the game.
