Hey, I was just wondering, are characters that receive sos during their noob times less likely to receive SOS when they reach a higher lvl like 52+? What has your experience been?

I haven't got an sos on this character and i'm almost lvl 67

This is true i found like 3 sos at lwo lvl i have not found ay more sos for about 40 lvls

nope, SOX are random, although it would be better if you got one from 52+, as its worht more, stronger etc

Some people like me have gotten to level 80 without ever finding an sos. and then there are ppl who find multiple soses in a week >.<

i havent got any

I'm so sick of hearing this. There is probably some hidden status ingame that determines sos. Cause i'm pretty sure 50 sos before lvl 20 and none for 70 lvls isn't random.

Today i found sos 66 earrings:))) im so happy:)

Seal drops of any kind are random, they use the Rand() function which generates a random number which is then attributed to the drop rate of a Seal item for the each character. Thus it is RANDOM! if anyone says otherwise, they know nothing of MMORPG game coding, and nothing about Silkroad Online.

From my experience that is false. Before hitting lvl 20 i found 4 sos items and since then i found about 6 other sos items (2 8th degree items) and 1 som. It's all random and luck.

im convinced this game hates me

I've level 41 and I've found 7 SOS items.

I have only found 2 so far and i have to buy most

It's all luck and chance...I guess you can call me unlucky :S

I guess it's better to not find any than to find some and NPC them :S

I'll say this again since BlackFox doesnt understand (sorry sweetie but I have played this game since first alpha.) SEAL DROPS ARE NOT BASED UPON LUCk, OR LUCKY ON EQUIPMENT. LUCK IS NOT A CALCULATABLE THING, GAMES ARE BASED ON COMPUTER CALCULATIONS. LUCK IS NOT ELECTRONICAL, IT IS SOMETHING THAT CAN ONLY BE ATTRIBUTED TO THE PHYSICAL WORLD, NOT VIDEO GAMES! That is unless SRO is like MapleStory, so that when you create a character it rolls an imaginary dice that gives your account a certain luck value, WHICH IS STILL BASED UPON THE Rand() FUNCTION FFS. THEREFORE IT IS COMPLETELY RANDOM! Thus Random# does not = luck

relax...what do u get from proving her wrong?

then is it not luck then... But can we call it for Random Luck ? /sarcasm

I get nothing, but one person saying other wise will spred like wildfire on SRF, I do not like to mislead people, I do not like people thinking that 1+1 =3 for example, Yes I have a large ego, but it is there for the protection of the knowledge of the people on SRF, people come here asking for facts and opinions, but when they want to know about something they should know the truth and not some bs Still wub u BF

haha wow. Too bad its pseudu random...

Donno what you mean by pseudo randomness, but it does use the Rand() function lol want me to get into the game code and screenie it? (might take me time to refind that area of the code and decrypt it lol)

Quit pulling stuff out of your butt

Yet again ISteal pokes out his nubish head to yet again make a fool of himself. All item drops are randomly generated by use of the Rand() function, which goes hand in hand with probability. No luck is involved. But w/e iSteaL thinks he knows. I shut him up once I'll do it again. (PS: iSteal go Troll on other peoples topics, also keep it up ill make sure u dont bother me anymore)

not completely random, since the computer works on a coded system that determines so, not 100%

nahh i think u have more chance when less people are on the server..but thats never gonna happen
