On weighted drops.we do know that weighted drop system is used in the game, lots of examples of 'rare' drops meaning some items have a lower weighted chance to drop. Out of 116 runs I got 10 inferno staffs which is about 9%, but that includes some leader board and double drops so I don't have an exact percent on just single chest drops/run.

What can help a little is to clear it if you can on wardens and DKs, because you are pretty much guaranteed a leaderboard position, so that you get an extra chance at the weapon from the weekly rewards.

It's just RNG, you can't have a definite say on drop rate-for some it's great, for some not, there's the urban myths of stamina toons more likely to get staves and vice versa, etc. Mb someone can give an answer on the question in the title. Is devs really think that farm vMA half of year or more is fun? Why just not did a exchange, in example, 50 weapons on 1 that you needed. I'm not agains rng in loot when you have up to 12 people who can get what you need and give away or trade it(in most disgusting cases), but not in solo content which is not the fastest and easiest for a lot of people. I've reached more or less comfortable point when i'm doing vMA in ~52 minutes, just mindless 52 minutes, but in the end it's always dissapointment cause of flawless rng that all devs loves as their children. But people doing vMA for 2 things - bow/inferno(sometimes lightning) and leaderboards. The probability of this is way higher than getting inferno staff? I know that this is game, not the end of the world and etc. Few times i've had 3 restoration staffs in a row, 2 bows in a row, 2 battleaxes in a row.This is just makes me mad.

I've done about 30 runs in vMA last week(honestly on last week i'm only started doing vMA cause i'm playing ~3 months) and wtf s going on.i've got every kind of weapons(most of them 3-4 times) and 0 inferno staffs.
