Description

Hi,

Yesterday got in hell with the Warlock and got to
The Countess
. The quest was activated, and got validated after killing her, but she dropped NOTHING.

I never had that in all my years of diablo 2. Is it something that also happened to you, and if so were the circumstances similar ?

Can be used to make Runewords:

That is a tiny chance of happening. Ive had similar multiple times, its always fun running all the way to countess and only get nothing or just some lowballing garbage runes. Countess is only worth very early game, but it 100% aint worth farming any further than that.

it is 100% worth farming for keys, rune drops as bonus imo :P

and the no rune drops happen from time to time.

Sure if you get keys, I cant remember the last time
Key
has dropped from countess. I dont farm keys because I just cant get them. No point wasting time getting those when could be spending the time farming something else which actually might provide something useful :D

Odds for T-
Key
at countess are ~1:13.6 (7.35%)

I had runs where I had 3 in 15 runs and other runs where I didn't get a single one in 50 runs. Those anecdotes are just deviations.

Remember: Luck is statistics taken personally. Past performance is not an indicator for future performance.

Just do more runs.

Looking for a cheap Cure on D2R HCNL? I got some!

I also have 100+ crafted amulets (from cheap to gg) on D2R SCNL. Let me know what you are looking for. 🙂

You can 100% get them.

Do 100 runs of any
Key
source (Summoner,
Nihlathak
, Countess) and keep track of your runs - mark them down on a notepad or something. Don't even do 100 consecutive runs, just do 3 or 5 or 10 at a time or whatever, but the point is, keep track of them.

The odds of NOT getting at LEAST 3 keys by the time you hit 100 runs is probably slimmer than your odds of dropping a Griffon's on your next Pit run with 0% MF.

Yes, you can do 35 runs with nothing. I've done it. Then I've done
Key
runs where they drop a
Key
every single run for the next 3. Or multiple keys in the same drop.

But to sit there and suggest you "just can't get them" is being disingenuous. If you hate grinding for keys I get that. But let's be real here.

No thanks. I dont do 100 runs of anything mate. I dont play that way. Closest to 100 runs of something I do is
Baal
and
Chaos Sanctuary
:DD

EDIT: I have to add here that even the 100 runs of baals and diablos, I still get nothing. Solo play just doesnt pay. The moment there are 2+ players in game; chances are already so much higher for loot, but at that point it must be shared aswell. So is it actually better? and public games? ewwww no.

I don't know if I've had her drop no items at all, but it's not that uncommon to not get a rune from her.

If you're running her specifically for runes, you want to run her on /players1 (or in an empty game if playing online). The reason is that when the game handles drops, it tries a set number of times (depending on the target). For each try, there is a chance that nothing drops, and higher /players settings reduce this chance. However, her special rune drop (as opposed to dropping a rune as part of the regular drop) comes out of this 'nodrop' chance. Thus, lower /players settings, where nodrop is higher, mean better rune drop odds.

On the other hand, not too long ago I was running
Duriel
for statues, and all he dropped was like four or five town portal scrolls, the fucker. I had to laugh at the stingy fat prick.

came from her normal drop 🤔)

After reading your post I thought I would jump on real quick. A

dropped on the 3rd run which was less than 6 minutes from the start of my firs turn. Thanks for the motivation! ;-)
