    I did the same kind of justification, but it’s a design decision to pad out the activity with a gambling adjacent pattern. If the drop rate was 100% no one would question it.

      i mean some quests are 100% drop rate, and i for one like the variety. Does it make a huge difference? Not really but its still feels nicer

        If you like it then you like it I guess. I never got those kinds of quests, personally

      Yep, the slot machine algorithm (a bucket fills up with every coin, the fuller the bucket the more plausible the win).
