Armor/weapon stand drops

[Hookipa]

Hi guys,

After doing several hundreds countess and mephi runs I noticed that the drops from some stands were the same with regard to item type (i.e. Gilded Shield/Ornate Armor/battle hammer) in about 75% of the time. It changed when I rerolled my maps.

Not that I am complaining since it resulted in a 199ed HoZ, but whats up with that?
Did anyone else have a similar experience?

Hookipa.

searching the forum for racking/rack running should give you a decent amount of results, this is what people call it. it's known, yes works even better in older patches!

this is one of the more comprehensive threads on it:
