    My theory, which im not sure is true or not, is that they drop more keys at certain times. I key hunted all day with sorc and found nothing (nihlathak only), then around 7 Pm EST i found 6 d keys in a row...
    If i'd be rational I guess you simple had a lucky stroke, however... I experienced the exact same thing as you. The first time I went keyrunning I actually found the whole set (9keys) in about 30 runs. The second time I hunted for keys I got exactly 1 key in about 40-50 runs! (same character). I mean sure you can have some goodluck and badluck but damn those marges are huge. Imo there might be some thruth behind that theory.

    You no with that time theory when i was keying ive found that id go through dry spells finding absolutely nuthing then when id come on later that day/night (i live in New Zealand my times different from you) id find all the keys in small amounts of runs. its happened more than once i just never thought n e thing of it...

    The time thing does sound plausable.
    If it was a set chance of dropping a key, surely it would be evenly distributed over a period of time.
    Whereas finding small amounts, then finding large amounts chaoticly, sounds like there is another factor above luck in that.

    Maybe blizz noticed the amount that hammerdins and sorcs were used, and docked them some invisible "key MF %" to there class.

    5 runs just 1 key?? lol i find hate every 4 runs usually and a terror every 5 or 6 runs now, and Dest keys are getting very rare for me, maybe about 1 Dest key for about 7runs, but still good enuff for me

    Come on now, do you really think Bliz would give any char. a bias like that? No, they wouldn't.
