the two chances an hour of AC spawning, at 10% a chance, if successful, would be the product and not the sum of the two chance probabilities? would it not? ie .1 * .1 not .1+ .1

also, quire = choir.. you preach to the choir.

OP seems like a better person than most on this thread self included.

shame on bards for being so bitchy wow you can run fast suck me aufff!!!

Yeah, you're probably right, it is sampling with replacement. I never paid attention in statistics. Still .01 seems low to me; i've seen 3 AC's spawn consecutively several times, and 2 back to back more times than I can count. No rng 0-99 should be that generous, right? My .1 chance was taken from the live code, which is obviously not implemented here because of the night/day cycle being ignored. Maybe its higher?

OP you have to understand that this game is all about being a dick. Getting better at ruining other peoples nights will make your play experience much more enjoyable.

better ban everyone that's made a key corpse in sky then, or has farmed any other item in the game multiple times without leaving

Then they should take issue to this because it's an exploit period. Don't care if others do it. When a whole server exploits something to gain advantages where the code doesn't normally allow it then you are breaking a rule, end of story. So either fix the code so all corpses tie to you where you can't get more lore items than one. On live I believe this was fixed years ago probably after POP, not sure as I have not ran into this issue in years and on P99 it just came to light with the poster above.

bold # 1: i guess you never learned along the way that this is a free-to-play server run by volunteers. who exactly are you to be telling the GMs and developers what they should be doing? this isn't Buma's Classic Server, this is Project 1999. i guess you still haven't figured out what me and others have been trying to tell you -- you're not entitled to anything in this game.

bold # 2: the code does normally allow it. in fact, it's been allowing it since the server's conception. this isn't classic EQ, remember? it's only an emulated version of it. if this were an exploit that needed to be fixed, they would have fixed it by now.

bold #3: i guess i'll be the one to let you know: the server isn't past the PoP expansion. in fact, we're only in Kunark right now.

bold #4: this just came to light for you. i'm fairly certain this has been known to others players for several years now.

1. Yes FTP doesn't mean they allow exploits. I am not telling GM or Devs to do anything, as a player we are all entitles to bring up exploits and bugs to the staff so that they can fix them and make the game more enjoyable to those who wish to progress legitimately on content and not have an exploitative edge to pass through quicker.

2. Just because you have code that allows it doesn't mean it's legal to exploit the code to an unfair advantage. As I said this is P99 yes but any exploit they will fix regardless if it impacts the server. In this case as an example players who corpse key AC ring is a major flaw.

3. This is why we got smart people running the server and not you. Because by your logic it's okay to have exploits on P99 and not fix them because Live didn't fix them till after Kunark era. If exploits were found they were fixed on Live, it's not part of normal content that they would allow them just because they got fixed at a later date. If it interferes with the game the P99 staff will fix any major exploit no matter if it was a later date past Kunark or not, at least I would hope so. For example if a exploit was found where it gave every player 5000 plat a day free and it wasn't found out and fixed till after Velious on Live and the Devs left it in P99 then it would harm the economy and server for good, so why would they let that go? They would fix it because exploits do not need to be date permitted for fixes, at least I hope they wouldn't because integrity is worth more than following a guide line they made up.

4. Yes it just came to my attention today, doesn't mean it's any less substantial. If a murderer has been on the loose for 30 years and the cops finally found out he has been killing for 30 years, does that make the murderer any less substantial? No of course not.
