Loot nerved in Halls of the Dead?
Luck is a tangible thing. If you are unlucky you remain unlucky until a certain amount of time passes. It doesn't matter how many runs you do in the meantime. For example, I just did 7 and got a single divine out of them with nothing significant worth more than 100c. It wouldn't have mattered if I ran them or not - bad luck needs to pass

" [Removed by Support]. the more runs you do the more times you roll for rewards so you will be able to eventually get something good if you only do 10 tournaments per day you odds are you won't get anything out of tota but if you do 100 you will most likely get quite a few divines worth of loot Last edited by Tai_GGG on Oct 26, 2023, 2:49:11 PM

The game is mostly luck based however there are mechanics which rely less on it. Delirium and altars (except for the divine one) are my favorites precisely because no matter what, they'll give you something. Meanwhile, ritual, as much as I love it, is pure luck and long streaks with nothing are expected (in fact, I don't think I ever found anything good in ritual this league to begin with).
Tota is like ritual. The thing which saves it is how few the rewards actually are. There aren't stupid atziri fragments for example, things rituals love to give. Plus it is also faster than ritual. But in the end tota is very much a luck-based mechanic and if you see you are not getting anything the best solution is to take a break. In fact, this is exactly what I did - an hour away, fired up one last run before I go out and boom - 4 divine stack + 21/20 arrogance. Meaning that the bad luck ended at some point. |

This guy is just right and it can apply to anything not just tota.
Do one Uber boss fight and be lucky and get the jackpot loot, or you could also end up running 100 Ubers without any decent drop at all. You could do 10 eater maps and get surprised by 5 divine altars or run 500 maps with just a single or no altars at all. Even if you spam shit, rng can still screw you over unless you have a 100% confirmed success on something after x attempts lol. Some might pull out several hundred divines out of 100 tota runs while others don't get to see much other than maybe a handful of trash rewards and maybe a small amount of currency to make up for the coins. Plus not everyone plays or creates a filthy meta build just to cheese the league mechanic, so spamming run after run might take longer for some, which makes other farming methods just way better than relying on the random tota rewards to be honest lol. Flames and madness. I'm so glad I didn't miss the fun. Last edited by Pashid on Sep 18, 2023, 11:54:13 AM

Now after a few weeks, I never came back to that loot I had before when gringding from 1000-1500.
Okay, once I got the hinkora`s lock (I nearly missed it because on the other loot chest was a good reward as well) but that didn't made back the loss of time I spent and I can do them verry fast with the Nado shot build with Mageblood. But anyways, I do enjoy it, I liked this league mechanic a lot. Its still fun. Maybe I'm getting as lucky as one of you one time, getting 3 Apo's :) Last edited by Dengeleng2 on Sep 23, 2023, 6:55:31 AM

Farmed mb in 3 days doing TOTA, just finished few hours ago.
3/5 apo cards came from small drops tattoos, gems and raw divs, and 2 cards came from hinekora's lock + 3x doctor cards and 3 proj tattoos so i don't think it is nerfed at all. |

Well, if poe stack is to be believed I've farmed around 600 div in tota so far.

your char is just cursed.
level a new char to 2k and see if his random lucky seed is better. my first 2k ranker, best drop was 5d. new 2k cheeser, 4x proj tattoo, 2x locks, 3x nurses. The Rich Get Richer, the Po Stay Po.

of course once ggg seen those mageblood pictures on reddit (not on the forum)
they nerfed the mechanic into oblivion "There are Penalties in the Game, no one's complaining about them"
