[quote=Lustershade]Ok, three+ posters already asked this, I'll ask again, how do you solo Ravana?[/quote]

if your still curious. You solo by not letting the other person attack I guess just you.

I was finally able to kill it today (with a party, of course), and it dropped on the first try.
e.e
I got really lucky.

I did 3 runs so far.
1/3 runs dropped a helm. (A solo run and 2 runs with a friend)

Oh, bro, you're trolling us, you can only go into Ravana's room once a day.

To answer the people who asked how to solo Ravana, here is the answer:

They collect on couple of characters Sunbursts and uses 2 computers to enter the Ravana temple to fight it. I did that too. Like why would I bother with a random, at most I would go with friends but not randoms!

1. can't trust randoms, they will loot (or you will loot if the random person trusts you)
2. people worked for it to get 5 sunbursts (some found all the sunbursts easier than other people)

well if you can trust each other and want to help each other sure thing, just do it quite simple

Above: Nice achievement, how did you farm so many Sunbursts? Did you "solo" Ravana? I doubt you're partner would go on that many runs without
being able to loot a helm. (If you solo'ed, how did you?)[/quote]

Not that hard to find some low-level that wants to get into the ravana shrine and then Miss every hit he does and then get killed.

[quote=Olliex]haha wow now your blaming nexon for low drop rates, low droprates are good!. less helmets the more they inflate. this is what makes games fun. you guys are always complaining how easy maple is now, then when they add a little bit of difficulty you cry gg.[/quote]

-___- Please just shush. No one would sell a ravana helm if you could get a scar/targa easier also Ravana helms are pretty damn ugly

[quote=adrianguibu2]By that logic theres a 10% chance to pass 7/7 10% scrolls on a weapon right? cause ecah one is independent. Im pretty sure it's easier (10% chance) to pass 1/1 than 7/7 and not the same, otherwise people would buy these 10% scrolls that sell in mushies for like 500k and scroll perfect weapons at a really low cost and 10% chance.
Its pretty much obvious yet necessary to explain to some noobs [/quote]

70% chance.

0.3 * 0.3 = 0.09% chance of both of them not working.

Wth Nexon![/quote]

it's 30% chance to fail mastery book, and 30% chance to fail the second mastery book, give that you failed the first time
so yah, its 9% chance of failing both mastery book

but this is wrong

why? because if a person successes the mastery book (the first 70% of people) won't try to use another mastery book

DRRR

Fail math lol. What she said is right. Do you think you have a 60% chance of passing 500 60% scrolls in a row? I don't think so.

However, im pretty sure that is mathematically 9% chance, but being nexon I can say its like 20%.
I destroyed 2 perfected crossbows, one of them being 180attack, both with 90% AEE. That should be a 1% chance, but 20% for nexon lol.

Nexon reduced drop rate, this helps the games economy by not letting noobs get the good gear keeping the economy balanced

Failed 6 Bstep 30's in a row:

0.5*0.5*0.5*0.5*0.5*0.5 = .03125 = 3.125%

The odds of each book failing is 50%, but the probability of 6 fails occurring in succession is only 3.125%

He is talking about the chances of both of them failing, like if you roll two dice there is 1/36 chance of getting doubles, 1/6 of getting 1 and 1/6 of getting another one multiply them across and you get 1/36. Didn't you learn that in math?

theres a 30% chance of it failing once. theres a 9% chance of it failing twice in a row...

1: Ravana Helm drop rate have been always low! 0~1 helms per run
2: Both side 'Regular' and 'Mirrored' drops Ravana helms

I have participated in most if not all the Golden Temple events so far! I did it for EXP for characters at Lv 70 and for characters that had no Zhelms.

when nexon lowers drop rates, the game becomes less fun. Because when things inflate, most items become inaccessible for most players like myself.

You just converted a decimal to a percentage without multiplying by 100. GG.

Btw you forgot to multiply by 100. You can't just convert decimals into percents without multiplying by 100.
