    Okay so as you know, people are starting to down zak now.

    My problem is, the amount of helms that drop. I was informed that it was 1-4? Why was this changed from 2-5

    2-5 helms has always been the drop to my knowledge, if i'm wrong correct me.


    Please switch it back to 2-5, its not "OP", its not "Too many". Its a decent amount for the effort put in. Why change it to 1-4, please fill me in. Thanks <3

    The drop rate has not been changed at until the first zaks appeared during Open Beta.

    I did discuss this with @Navi@Navi but forgot the exact amounts, so I am pretty sure he can confirm the current formula.

    Every drop was changed during beta phase because the base source was 2x drops.

    By normal i mean, everything I remember... everytime zak was done it was 2-5 helms, i may be wrong but its what I remember.

    plus, 1 helm for a whole zak run? your joking right, thats basically a huge "FUCK YOU".

    Making it 2-5 even if it wasn't the original drops, would be very fair.

    0 Helmets = 0.42%
    1 Helmet - 2.53%
    2 Helmets = 7.33%
    3 Helmets = 13.68%
    4 Helmets = 18.47%
    5 Helmets = 57.57%

    Default drop chance is 1/6, and we run the rng 30 times for Zakum (and Horntail too).
    You can use this formula for calculating exact probabilities of events: http://www.regentsprep.org/regents/math/algtrig/ats7/blesson.htm
