Hall of Faded Fame with low luck.

Why low?

on Hall of Faded Fame, Floyd drops at higher rates if you have low luck. It’s just the way it works.

Hall of faded fame, luck should be exactly eleven.

why 11?

with ~47 luck, ghax took several weeks to get a few pieces.

with 1 luck, ahax bumembled floyd in a few days

ghax did it pretty quickly with 8 luck and 3 luck.

Well the second time round, ghax already had some pieces, didn’t he?

I started grinding for floyd way back when I had 0 pieces. took me about 3 weeks, and then 1 week for the next one.

Trust me, 11 luck is the way to go. You’ll probably have trouble with #48 like I did, so try messing around with your luck once you only have a few pieces left.

Also, Kenkanif, I have an extra one which I could put up for sale, if you have 3 million to spare.

Good luck grinding though! It’s immensely satisfying to get one yourself.

Piece #38 took forever for me, but I got there eventually. All via low-luck on Hall Of Faded Fame. If you imagine each forum having a list of potential moar drops, increasing your luck increases the odds of getting ones from the top, whilst decreasing your odds of getting one from the bottom. On most forums the good moars are on the top of the list, but HoFF evidently has Pink Floyd at the bottom. Probably an attempt to **** with our heads, make us try to get it by jacking luck up higher and higher in a vain attempt to improve the situation.

Anyway, damned if I’m paying some other bumhole 3 to 4 million flezz for any file… more from not having that kind of flezz than the principle, but still partly the principle!

Having extracted one it’s stood at 49/50, needing another #38, then I’d need another 4 specific pieces to get a third floyd. Seems like it shouldn’t take long, but of course I’ll probably just keep getting more of #14, #15 and #33 (got 11 each of those). I’ll probably get back on with grinding that in a week or so when I’ve finished the consecutive pwnage peens.

Is this even possible to do as a hacker. Best0r’s give me 10 Luck each.

Haxt0r HXX 50TB Hard Drive just gives +15 off / +15 def

use that instead

Thanks, man, but considering I got 4/5 of the files done by now and low amounts of flezz that ain’t an option.

The low luck thing definetly worked. I get far more pink floyd files now. Much appreciated, guys.

You can affect the drop rate by manipulating your luck attribute, but after that the message from on high is that each piece is truly random (i.e. none of your attributes affect which piece will drop)

The first pink floyd should take ~225 drops, though it may be lower, or much higher. So if you’re getting (say) 4 drops per visit, that would be 2 weeks of visits, plus or minus. If you continue farming, successive pink floyds will take less and less time, since you’ll have some of the parts already (down to a limit of one pink floyd completed for every 50 drops)

Since you can earn 250k+ per day from 4 visits, selling junk and doing jobs, you should be able to earn the amount of flezz necessary to buy a pink floyd in the same amount of time. By farming for it, you’ll be losing flezz due to lower deliveries and jobs, because you’re hitting just one forum, though if you continue to hit HOFF you’ll end up making flezz from selling pink floyds, provided there are enough buyers out there.

Once I get my Re-Re to level 31 I’ll get the drop stats for 1 Luck and see once and for all.

I can drop to 1 luck and grind HoFF for a while if you want. I’m not too worried about my bank balance, so lost income … meh, maybe I’d care if it wasn’t internet-money.

Just need a week to get up to a 100-streak for the peens and then I was planning on grinding for floyds anyway, all I’d need to do over and above that plan is keep a record of what dropped.

Fair enough… I guess the highs and lows are just random fluctuation then.

If I wanted to be picky, I could point out the difference between “none of your attributes affect which piece will drop” and “truly random” (there could be hidden variables like the probability curves I was describing) but that would be needlessly pedantic.
