Drop Probability Formula:
| From: | To: |
The Diablo 2 Resurrected Drop Calculator calculates the probability of obtaining at least one drop after multiple attempts using the formula P = 1 - (1 - p)^k. This helps players understand their chances of getting specific items after repeated farming attempts.
The calculator uses the probability formula:
Where:
Explanation: The formula calculates the probability of getting at least one successful drop after k attempts, given the base probability p for each individual attempt.
Details: Understanding drop probabilities helps players make informed decisions about farming strategies, time investment, and expected outcomes when hunting for rare items in Diablo 2 Resurrected.
Tips: Enter the base drop probability (0 < p ≤ 1) and the number of attempts (k ≥ 1). The calculator will compute the overall probability of obtaining at least one drop.
Q1: What is a typical base drop probability for rare items?
A: Base drop probabilities for rare items in Diablo 2 Resurrected can range from 0.0001 (0.01%) to 0.01 (1%) depending on the item and difficulty level.
Q2: How many attempts are needed for a high chance of success?
A: For a base probability p, approximately k = log(1 - target)/log(1 - p) attempts are needed to reach a target overall probability.
Q3: Does this calculator account for multiple drops?
A: No, this calculates the probability of getting at least one drop. The probability of getting exactly n drops requires the binomial distribution formula.
Q4: Are drop probabilities independent in Diablo 2?
A: Yes, each drop attempt is generally considered independent, making this probability formula applicable.
Q5: Can I use this for other games with drop systems?
A: Yes, this probability formula applies to any system with independent drop chances and multiple attempts.
