[suggestion] Rare Items

Discussion in 'Suggestion Box Archives' started by RandomZh, Jan 23, 2013.

  1. Hi,

    I would love it if there were at least some items that are extremely rare. E.g. wither head drop chance is 1:40. But there ain't any item between chance "1:40" and "1:1,000,000". For example in Diablo 2 they had runes for this purpose. Each next rune would be harder to find. You would need 2 million kills (only the hardest mobs) to reach 50% chance of getting a ZOD rune.

    It would be a good chance to introduce this with "Normal Mode"-update for skeleton heads, zombie heads, creeper heads.

    E.g.:
    Some hostile mob spawn egg: 1 : 40 ... 1 : 2,000
    Only zombie can drop zombie head, with chance 1 : 10,000
    Only skeleton can drop skeleton head, with chance 1 : 100,000
    Only creeper can drop creeper head with chance 1 : 1,000,000

    Regards,
  2. I like the idea! :)
  3. But diablo 2 runes sucked...
  4. That sounds like a nice idea, especially with this new update on the way.
  5. The next most expensive item on EMC Zombie head, skeleton head and creeper head lol xD
  6. Support, and I think this is already about to be implemented.
    1 : 1000 is already very rare - for 1000 kills, there is still almost 37% probability that you will get nothing :) (0.67% for 5000 kills, and if you get nothing after 10,000 kills than you were not lucky at all, because that is 0.0045% or about 1 in 22,000 :))

    But, what would you do with a creeper egg?
    Or ghast egg? :)
    Perhaps you would want to make a zoo, but they despawn on chunk unload or server reset...
  7. Bah, ICC head, 'nuff said.
    jkjkjk182 and nfell2009 like this.
  8. Agree, but what if other heads become obtainible in survival?
  9. I'd say the most expensive is the ICC head... it cost $100...

    EDIT: Ninja'd by the Rainbow >.>
  10. Which is.... 60,000r :D
  11. I'd debate that. Since 100$ doesn't get you another ICC head (it was a one time deal), its actually the rarest item in the game right now (only 2 in existance - kevdudeman and krysyyjane's) It's not like you can donate 100$ today and get another head, or pay 60k for one.

    Also, dragon eggs.
  12. Is this a joke, or did i miss something?:confused:
  13. People who donated $100 dollars or more to EMCon 2012 got an ICC head.

  14. Endlessly grinding to get an item just so that I can say I have it? There are other games for that. Like . . . Diablo.
  15. support.

    EDIT: just noticed you said " ain't " im not the only southern one here yay!
