oooh. my weekly ff12 posting. so I learned something about the diamon armlet and rare drops from chests at least in the zodiac version. Again this is not really outlayed well from web searches I have seen. What you do see is that the armlet has a 5% chance for a chest to do its rare drop. What is a bit less clear is each chest has its own rare drop and that is the only thing that will come from it. You may see mention that chests don’t only appear but what I do not see mentioned is it seems the chance of a chest appearing seems to be based on how rare its drop is. I can’t prove it as I have not collected data and plotted a chart or such but belive me. I have been running this thing in the cerobbie step that is supposed to have the darksword ninja sword thing. I initially had ran around and man I reallly was wondering if the rare drop had been taken out or something at some point but one finally happened. So I decided I would just start going for a few chests. this line from the save crystal entrace point going between two rocks that have a chest with two inbetween. After going back and forth many many times I can plainly see the darksword chest comes up way less than chests that have the dueling mask (which I got) and the sextant and ultima is much rarer than both of those but the darkblade is that much rarer to show up. So you have a 5% chance for the armlet to work but you have another percentage for rare loot that is smaller the rarer it is. So like lets say the darkblad chest has a 5% chance to populate (this feels about right or maybe lower). So then like if you respawn the zone 400 times then maybe 20 times that chest will spawn and maybe the darkblad will drop. Between zone cutover time and actually running around at 2x speed it results in a rediculous amount of time. I would have stopped if it was not for the fact I can play my steamdeck on the toilet. (sorry tmi?)
