Hill Giant platinum

[Kavious]

I noticed something peculiar with the plat drops from Hill Giants. I would often get almost nothing or the high end of 40+ plat. So I started to save all the logs of hill giant looted coin. Over the last year I have logged around 6600 kills

The data has come out to a 50% chance for 0-5 plat and a pretty evenly spread 50% chance for anything 20-49 plat. I have since looked up old comments on alla and it seems normal to have a high chance to get a low end amount.

However there is a 0% chance for anything 6 to 19 plat. Maybe this is classic? I dont know how to look up anything like this to verify. Is the 6-19 range left out on purpose?
