Short Questions Thread

I found my first SSU recently. It was The Redeemer. A couple searches revealed it would be good for a Unsummoner Amazon build, but I couldn't dig up a guide for this build. Can someone point me towards one? Also, is this item good for any other builds?

Thanks.

Hello, I have a short question regarding the Great Runes from Toraja/Fauztinville. After about 10-15 Toraja runs, I managed to find only Krys Runes (about 7-8 pieces total). Also, after about 5 Fauzt runs, I found 2 Taha Runes. It seems to me that these runes have a greater drop bias than the other runes. The Toraja rune drops are really suspicious from this point of view. Does anybody know why I've found only Krys Runes and not a single one of the others? I think I should've found some of the others as well. I'm playing single player. Also, does anybody have an idea what are the chances for each of these runes to drop (both Toraja and Fauzt). Thanks in advance!

Tahas are the easiest ones to find in Fauzt,

Kryses are the easiest ones to find in Toraja

Other greatrunes are more rare.

I think I already know the answer but may as well ask: if I already have Fridge Sphere with points as a Sorc and get a relic with +12 Fridge Sphere, will I really aquire +12 FS, or only +3?

As far as other builds - it's got all of the stats a fire caster zon (bloodstorm or lava pit) would want, it's at least a good stopping point on the way to

Just +3.

Fauz: Taha, Ghal, Qor. each next rune has a lower chance to drop, if I remember correctly, the drop ratios are 3:2:1, 4:2:1 or something like that. so, if it's 3:2:1, then 50% of the great rune drops are Taha, 33% are Ghal, and 17% are Qor. It used to be that each full clear of Fauz gave about one great rune, but I don't know what's the chance now, after Fauz was changed.

Same thing is with Krys, Auhe, Sha'ad in Toraja. Something like 3:2:1: 50%, 33% and 16%.
It used to be that you needed several runs to get one great rune, but Toraja's been changed since I last played, so my info is probably wrong.

As for getting only 8 Krys and no other rune, it's just random chance. Just because something that has a low probability of happening happens, doesn't mean things are wrong, especially on such a small sample size as yours.

Thank you for your answer. It is true that the sample size was small, but it was enough for me to suspect that something was off. The fact that the chances are not equal for all the runes explains it all. Good to know that.

@Siosilvar

That's what I thought. Thank you for verifying.

If the Enchantment: Helmet +10 Fire Dance adds no spell damage (as per description), then what the hell does it do then? Extend the duration ?

All right, thank you. Do you know anything about the drop chances of Teganze Runestones/Essences? For me, it seems that they all have about an equal chance to drop. I have to do several runs in order to find a Runestone which can be frustrating since I need as many runestones as essences in order to combine them. Then, to make a Xis rune, I need one extra runestone. I think that the drop chances for Runestones should be slightly higher than the chance for Essences.
