A total of 9308 runs have been completed, with again, 0 1 CONFIRMED RARE DROPS.

If we take the 23 confirmed drops(or dev room glitches) I got pictures for from the main thread and add them to the results, that leaves us with a 0.03% Drop Rate.

This is UNACCEPTABLE if this is expected to be obtained by the average player, or even an ultra-hardcore player. There is definitly a big difference between 'Rare' and 'Ultra-Rare', This leaning more towards Ultra-Rare than Rare.

I am leaving the poll open to continue to collect more responses, you can fill it out here


Lets do some more math, lets say you can average 3 runs per hour(20 minute runs), lets assume your also a robot who can operate 24/7. The event goes for 1 week, so 1 robo-person could realistically get 504 runs in the week this event runs.

Using this equation 1 - ( ( 1 - x ) ^ y ) x = Drop chance and Y = Number of runs

Equation from this article Someone tell me why its wrong and what equation i should be using.

1 - ( ( 1 - .0003) ^ 504 ) = 0.14.

So even if you are a robot operating at peak efficiency you only have a 14% chance of getting a single 'rare' mask.

The rare Fasnacht masks are attainable, they are just very rare. Thanks to your feedback, we’re looking into improvements we can make to the drop rates in the future for rare item rewards associated with time limited events.
