Do you get better loot from chests as you advance?

Like... advancement maybe in whatever they are calling the N7 ranking?

 

Or are you just as likely to get a level 20 unique awesomesauce in your first chest as any other?

all RNG my friend.

 

when I first started playing I went for large chests.  didn't seem to get much goodies so I switched to medium chests.  seemed to have some good luck with those for a while.

 

recently I decided to try large chests.  did 2x $30Kgold (25 large chests per session) openings recently and received some pretty nice purp weapons.  between these sessions I now have 4 purp daggers, Griffon bow, and "Death..something" staff (lvl 16).

 

so yeah... RNG

 

Edit: Noting that I play Threatening for the most part to build up gold and XP.

It doesn't make any difference. RNG remains the same as you increase your Prestige. You simply will be playing more Threatening at a certain point, saving more gold and buying more packs, thus rolling the dice more often, but your chances don't change.

People who equate good drops to prestige level are the folks who have simply had a longer string of bad luck than most others. If I get sh*t drops and then suddenly get like 5 epics within a couple days of hitting prestige 150 I'm naturally going to associate one with the other. But it is, in fact, just RNG.

...and SpaceV3gan makes an excellent point.  I play mostly Threatening which yields more XP and gold.

I believe it's all RNG but i have to say, i played for awhile without ever promoting a character and never saw a unique or item above ilvl 17 but the second i promoted my first character i opened one large chest and got a unique greataxe, a superb rune, now of cruel intentions (best non-unique bow in the game), and two whites level 19 and 21 respectively. So...yeah, there's that. Granted i don't see them like that all the time but i do see higher ilvl gear a lot more common. Make of that what you will i guess.

No. It's all RNG. Anything else is theorycraft / superstition.

 

Gold earned / xp goes up with difficulty but that's it.

I got my most treasured weapon, the Caliban, when my Prestige was about 100 (maybe less) and I had not promoted any character beforehand.
Between Prestige 130 to 200 I got most of my high level Purple cards, including several accessories. Since then I have been going through a dry streak, on which all purple items I've come across were either garbage or repeated ones.
I am now Prestige 277, but I can't complain about my dry streak. I know people whose Prestige is over 300 who don't have the luxury of walking around with two Blades of Red Birth and a Superb Ring of Life-Drain.
So higher Prestige is a not a factor. Promotion is a not factor. It is all pure effing luck.

Funny, but I first read that, I thought you were complaining about your dry steak, and thus wondered when you started eating meat.  Or, if it was the "ham" they serve back in camp?

All I know is that the large chests have been rubbish for me. I dont think i've got a single unique from them. Whereas medium chests seem to give me a unique or something useful every other chest.

Funn you should say that.  One day my mind read "kill streak" as "kill steak", so I chuckle to myself while building up the "kill steaks".  :)
