Random items not random?
So, I was playing around with a test game and advancing it dozens of turns to get more gems for Wishes.
At one point, I checked my lab for an artifact that got knocked off my Lich and I see...... Six Crowns of Command, four Swords of Sharpness, five Rings of Frost, and four other assorted items. So that can't be random. The question is: what is the real formula for getting random items? |

In one MP game I got 3 crystal shields with luck 2. It was really good)

Re: Random items not random?
I do tend to get random stuff, both usable and unusable. Various weapons, with perhaps Staff of Corrosion being the best one yet, frost rings, berserker pelts, shield of gleaming gold, lightless lantern, ring of wizardry, chi shoes, lifelong protection and others.
So for me it has been random. But that's over several games. Perhaps the variation within each game is less. |
Re: Random items not random?
Many of the new events seem to be limited to low-level items or at least don't disallow them from the selection. Tomb of an ancient king is still likely to produce a Ring of Fire, etc etc.
There are only few events that produce a truly random item, and those usually give something common or useless. |

Re: Random items not random?
I've got Robe of the Archmagi, once. It was annoying, because I got TWO great treasures on the turn I lost against AI as Mictlan, and the reason I lost because I couldn't summon an Arch Devil because I lacked a booster. I think that must be some kind of a hard-coded learning experience. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

In my SP Bogarus game I got Baba Yaga on the 1st turn, and on the 2nd turn I got a Dwarven Hammer from and event, and another Dwarven Hammer from the indy province I conquered. I take luck 3 in most of my SP games, just because it's fun and the lost points serve to help the AI a little.

Overall, I would say the items are random, had allsorts from the magic item tables, everything except artifacts, you don't get them randomly. The best I have had in MP are a dwarvern hammer early on (like turn 2 or so), skull mentors, a brazen vessel (when I was playing a blood nation) to name a few. |
Re: Random items not random?
I've played luck 3 in two games that went to 70+ turns and I can't think of a single good item that I got in either game.
Lots of gems and money, but no items. Jazzepi |
