Key drop rate.

Key drop rate.

What is the drop rate of the key from the bosses is it like 1/10 1/20?
I haven't start running them this season, but I would look to know.
I killed countess maybe 10 times and no keys yet. Is it the same drop rate for all the guys? Thanks.

yes, i forget where i read it, so sorry i cant quote anything, but it is 1/34 runs... appx.

1 in 11 to 1 in 14, depending on who you run actually. The odds are for getting 1 - 5 keys in one drop.

I.E. 1/34 runs produces keys, but you can get as many as five from one drop, so it averages out to 1 key per 11-14 runs?

I did my first Countess run and got a key.

I must do another 33 keyless runs to begin the next cycle.

According to the drop tables in single-player (data\global\excel\TreasureClassEx.txt):

The Countess has a 1/68 chance for a Key of Terror on each item drop in a 1-player game with a total of 5 drops. This works out to at least 1 key per ~14 runs.

The Summoner has a 1/56 chance for a Key of Hate on each item drop with a total of 5 drops, giving at least one key every 11-12 runs.

Nihlathak has a 1/61 chance for a Key of Destruction on each of his 5 drops, working out to at least 1 key per 12-13 runs.

If you run them in 8-player games, your chances of finding keys increases slightly.

Your mileage may vary, though, especially if Blizzard changed the drop rates on the realms.
