I've heard talk here and there about how people are suddenly getting better chest drops at a certain reputation point.

 

I wanted to point out that for me personally, I did not receive a single item above level 17 until Reputation level 110, at which point I started to receive a high level (19+) item every chest, or every other chest. I'm in the 120's now and have epic 20+ weapons for each class.

 

Obviously it's not 0%-100% since some people get extremely highlevel items early on, but I am wondering if there are modifiers tied into Reputation level for the RNG system.

 

Has this happened for anybody else?

I'm at around 175 and only have about 5 epics, only 2 of them level 20.  I've gotten a handful but most were low level, I already had a rare better than them.

 

Item quality is in no way tied to your progress through the games challenges/ranks/leaderboards.  The Monster Hunter community has an urban legend/joke about something similar to this, called the desire sensor.  Every game that has a loot system based off of RNG has players who are superstitious and try finding reasons to say that there is actually a pattern going on.  There is a great video on the amazing youtube channel Vsauce (https://www.youtube....HTCZ5t-N3Rm3-HA) explaining randomness and how humans try to find patterns and meaning in everything.

 

In short, the only way to improve your loot chance is to offer a prayer to the almighty RNGesus before every chest that you buy.

edit: had the wrong video, that one was about randomness, this one is about coincidences.

There are some people who claim there is a relationship between loot and leaderboard or prestige and some who claim there isn't. We can't know for certain whether or not there is a relationship between prestige and the items you get from store chests unless we have enough data to find such a correlation, and as far as I know no one has attempted to go beyond hearsay to figure it out.

 

As someone who has opened 400 large chests at different prestige levels and even opened 100 while at 20th place on the leaderboard, I have an opinion on this as well (you can see video and results in thread "100 large chests"). I may be wrong because 400 chests with chests opened at different prestige levels and leaderboard rankings is not nearly enough of a sample size, so I am not saying that I know I am right, just that in my opinion it is not likely for prestige or leaderboard ranking affects loot.

 

I would also like to bring to attention the fact that to program a relationship between loot from store chests and prestige or leaderboard would require a very sick mind. Who really wants to punish and reward people based upon prestige, something that is basically a counter of your achievement progress and how many times you have promoted characters, or upon leaderboard ranking, which would probably result in punishing tens of thousands of players and only reward the top 100 or maybe less? You'd have to be a super @$$hole or a despair demon to come up with the idea to program store chests to be affected by leaderboard or prestige.

There is no correlation between leaderboard\prestiege and item level or quality, I have been top 15 for a few weeks now and still get the same lvl 1-10 crap I got on day one, I have promoted every class twice and most 3 times, there is nothing you can do to eliminate items from the pool you of items you can get or make the quality of them better. You can and probably will get worthless items the majority of the time, if someone tells you they know some secret way to improve your chances they are lying, just accept it, it sucks but it doesn't look like Bioware is going to do anything about it.

I thought it was for a short time. I hit 120 the got a purple staff, 125 dps. But no purples since then. Im certain there is no pattern, no.secret, no breakpoint. Just random random random.

RNG is only tied to your state of mind. If you are in a moment of weakness, it will keep hitting you in the groin.

Couse, RNG.

I got my first level 23 item when my prestige/level/whateveryoucallit was around 25ish. It was a common-level staff, but still. 100 base dps and full upgrade slots, pretty awesome at that early stage.

 

RNG.

I'm about 110ish now and i've not seen a single item above ilvl16 so far... so this observation / theorycraft may hold some truth within...

143 here and I feel like I do get more blues but they are all level 4-7 and useless.

[Sephlezar]

I broke 213 a day or so ago and I found all my purples prior to that. I have not seen any evidence to support a link between reputation and loot obtained from chests.

[gay_wardens]

You know, I'm willing to believe it if no one comes forward and says they got a level 23 item within their first few times picking it up and playing.

 

At the very least it might be restricted until you log a certain number of hours.

My buddy got the staff of the void the first day of release.

[paradoxpony]

I would say its all random, when i had about 20 power i got level 19 Bow and level 21 shield, and few days ago i got uniques in 1 large chest. So i would say everything is random cause in some chests i would get gear level 5-.

[Blaasyre]

I have pulled quite a few 20+ uniques (accessories included), but then something amazing happened:

I saved up 24k gold to have a little chest-opening-mini-bonanza at lvl 160~ and got scrap all the way.

For me, it feels like lady luck likes me less as I progress in lvl

[Sephlezar]

Just dropped about 12k gold on chests and found two purples, both runes.
