RNG is a game term that is an acronym for "random number generator". Random number generators (or, more correctly, pseudorandom number generators) are algorithms used in computing when an outcome needs to be as random as possible. A computer can't generate completely random numbers on its own, so it uses a complex algorithm designed to get as close to random as is practical. These algorithms are used in the game any time an event has a probability of happening - whether that be critical hits, the spread of weapon damage, procs such as Missile Barrage or Sudden Doom, or to determine which loot drops from a raid boss.


I hope this helps.

Well...I can say for sure that BWL loot tables are bugged/wrong and being ignored (apparently) by the Nost team.

Do you have any proof besides anecdotal evidence?

I found some weird things, in UBRS there drops level 25 green items...
Also the Scarlet Hounds in Western Plaguelands drop a ridiculous amount of weird items like potions and scrolls and stones that elementals usually drop...

Sounds like RNG is working as intended.

I recall at one point on Feenix, Thaddius didn't drop a caster hat for 12 weeks.

There's only 3 kinds of tier 3 hats, and he drops two every kill.

Those are some lottery odds. They still make me feel as though the loot RNG is only mostly random.
