It's not a bug, it's just RNG. It evens out over 1000 runs or more. Any set of runs that is less than 100 can have wild variation from day to day.

As an example, check this thread:
forums/100-hell-countess-runs-t1808038.html

mikelessar did 1000 runs, and the Key drops were almost spot on in total according to the average drop rate over those 1000 runs. Among those 1000 runs he had a stretch of 86 without a single Key, yet it evened out in the end, almost uncanningly so.

(yes the link says 100 because he typo'd the thread title initially, it was actually 1000 runs which you can see when you open the link, he renamed the thread title, but the permalink remains what it was called originally)

Also, IIRC, The Countess drops no runes at all about 1 in 64 kills, on /players 1. (it's worse on higher player counts)

Welcome to Countess farming my friend. Seems like u are more unlucky than me😅.

But seriously though while u get no keys in the meantime, the chances of a Key/s appearing on the next one will increase.
You just need more runs to get the probabilities work more in your favor.

In addition to the earlier comment by a mod, may these Countess stats help u somehow...

My Countess Runs here, unluckiest Key streak: 45 runs without any Key (Run 118 - 162)
Florian_G's Runs here, unluckiest Key streak - 40 runs without any Key (runs 202 - 241)

Who knows? You might get that triple Key drop I haven't experienced yet. Good luck on farming buddy🤜🤛.

Good so i am not completely alone with this "issue" rng was never on my side, not in diablo and not in wow xD

If you're playing online try doing your Key runs in full games for improved drop odds. Baal runs tend to be a good pub game for this because they're easy to find and players stick around long enough to get the run done in time.

Once again, sorry for that. ;-)
