  • Example: You roll a six sided dice you roll a six, that is a 1/6 chance. You roll again, it is a six. You do this two more time and both times you get a six. That's (1/6)•(1/6)•(1/6)•(1/6)= SUPER LUCKY

  • That's not how it works though. 6 sided dice, 1/6 per roll. Sure, if you roll 10 6s in a row the odds of that having happened are low, but each roll thereafter is still 1/6. It's not deterministic. It's a low chance that there HAS been this many Voidfang Vestments, but each week still had the same chance as always. What I'm saying is this doesn't prove anything. It's just a good example of how stats works.

  • I know that but the odds of it happening four time in a row is just odd.
