The loot gods are being overly generous?

When you read this, remember that I am the guy that has played for well over a year and has never looted a bloodstone, despite ransacking the chests numerous times.

Over the last 3 days I have pulled 2 lesser experience elixers, 1 greater experience elixer, 1 guild reknown elixer, and 1 astral diamond. Not being a statistical guy, I am not sure what the odds are of this happening. I do find it strange though. Anybody else notice a spike?

I've pulled two collapsed portable holes in the last week, which struck me as lucky, although not unbelievable.

Time to hit the Sands chests?

I think you are on a hotstreak.  I haven't heard of anyone else hitting the DDO store item lottery quite like that.  I do think they have upped the overall drop rate of DDO store items since they added them to the tables.

I just got that impression after you spent 13 pages calling out eladiun for being an interwebs bully when anyone who's been posting on here already knew that.  I mean, he's proud of it and hardly tries to hide that at all.

I'd post about how I have so many Bloodstones that I equip my casters with them so they can get that extra damage per swing on held mobs but that would just make Stainer cry, so I won't mention it. Tongue

Did I mention that I have gotten 2 in one day, on the same toon?  Along with a set of Firestorm booties in the same ransack run?

If it makes any difference, all these pulls have been on the character I used to redeem the PAX Swag Bag goodies first.

Gawna took care of me. I am like that slow cousin that she plays with because she feels guilty.

Ouch!

Kinda like the +3 wisdom tome in Reaver, Glacier Bracers (VOD), Dreamspitter, Bloodstone, and Delving suit my caster pulled this week?

Yeah, something is in the water.  But nearing updates I've noticed things get borked somewhat.

Bloodstones are cheap... mid-level loot ... now shard, seal and scroll on top such, now we're speaking luck.

... is always that third item to make an epic <something> drives people insane...

I think something's up.  People in my guild have been pulling +2 tomes NONSTOP since right before the birthday event.  One guildy pulled three in one day.
