Is it cheaper to Chance + Scour a 6L Widowsilk Robe or buy a 6L Infernal Mantle.

Chancing a unique vs dropping isn't the numbers I posted and I never said once Lionseye and Windripper have the same chance I stated they dont [which is why it said if you look at drop tables it might point you to why Glare dropped in price, also based towards builds now vs then [as to why Glare went from 5ex one league (Prior to wind ripper coming in btw lmfao) to 10c the next league (Again prior to wind ripper) Especially since those builds are not interchangeable.

Dev have never confirmed if CHANCING uniques have the same weight or not [I.E. If you chance windripper only going FOR a windripper are you more likely to end up with a lions eye or a windripper? Ideally the chance is exactly the same. However since you can potentially roll 2 uniques you lose out on a chance if it does decide to roll a unique item that it rolls the one you don't want] It's a really simple math and anyone in the history of anything will tell you if you are going for 1 specific thing and you have the chance to roll more than possible outcome that has the same chance you have it means you have the possibility to roll that every time instead of what you want.

Also devs said that when they add new items it doesn't change the table [i.e. if it's a .02% chance to get a unique, added another one to the pool wouldn't change anything so if you have 5 unique bows all from the same base and they ALL have the .02% chance to be rolled, you have a 1/5 chance when you ROLL the .02% to get the specific one you want.] This also means when they add a new item it doesn't drop the others from .02% chance it just adds ANOTHER chance at ANOTHER unique when it rolls that chance.

Math is hard yo.
