have you ever had a long series of bad luck, wither it be farming or just trying to get that companion you wanted from that pack? actually the only reason im doing this is so i can feel like im not the only one who has terrible luck \_o. o_/ for example, it took me all of summer into late winter to get rookes axe (through in spring and a whole year of none stop farming day and night) or how I've been farming blood for his jacket for quite a long time now (3 hats 2 hooks 1 cleaver and like 5 boots) maybe English bill, i got like 5 guns 3 hats and 1 jacket before i decided to go beat him up for fun and i got the boots. (my list could go on forever) so have you had any series or just a bunch of bad luck trying to get something? (note to self, sacrifice hawkules to luck gods, at least i wont have to hear his one "fact/question" anymore)

Hey there Jack! I think all of us, at some point in time, have experienced bouts of unfortunate lack of fortune, when it comes to Spiral drops (sounds like a bad skyway disease).

For the most part I have been pretty 'lucky' when it comes to acquiring the gear and items I have really sought after. But, that luck has often been influenced by some decent coughing up of Crowns (another Spiral illness), seeing as I often make up for not getting much in-game time by using Boss Second Chance Chests. I was able to acquire General Tso's full ensemble, including his weapon (with multiples of most items), in relatively few farming attempts....but I did have to raid his locked, silver wardrobe chest a time or 2, or 3, or 5, or who's counting? I also was able to acquire all 6 Grizzly pack companions and all 5 Tribal Crew companions-- and all on the same pirate!!! But, again I had to shell out a decent amount of Crowns...still pretty lucky though- got all 11 for as much as some have spent on 2 or 3. So, clearly 'cheating with Crowns and Second Chance Chests' can possibly help your luck out but it still isn't a guarantee.

It did take quite a while for Tyler to graciously hand over Schemer's Eyepatch and Antinous & Eurymachus are still possessing a firm grip on the Praetorian's Spear. I don't necessarily need it, but I want it, as I do so enjoy collecting the great boss gear out there in the Spiral. I also had a wee bit of bad luck trying to coax the Clocktopus into my boat....took 34 tries for that stubborn one.

But all in all, I'd say that I have had a good run of luck in the Spiral, especially considering my limited playing time. Most gear and pets, I seem to get with very limited farming/morphing attempts...even without using Crowns and SCCs. But yeah when you get those bosses/pets that just won't play nice, it sure gets you fired up.

I've been fighting minotaur's for two weeks two hours each day(2 or 3 runs) and I can't get the axe. I also can't get gotez's axe even though I've tried on every character. I save the boss chests for last whenever I open them but I get more disappointed that way.

it seems luck is with you, indeed the 2nd chance chests help allot (they to require luck so i wouldn't call it cheating) even when i use good luck charms (misty...) i have bad luck, and when people use me they have good luck (my friend had all of bloods stuff except the hat, he joined me he got the hat and left without saying thanks, but its cool) i was at the point where i was just going to light the fuse and blow up rooke with me and everyone else, (the run where i got the axe actually. i bet i did at least 1000 runs and yes i know that's a lie just exaggerating) i recently got a grizzly companion (free a friend gifted me.) so i guess we all have some luck

oh, absolutely. It took me 46 cadmus fights to get the blades of shade, and the day after i got them, the tower was announced. So much wasted time . . .

well i hope you continue to have good luck (but without the bad)

Oh yeah, My luck is terrible when it comes to drops. It took me from when the tower was offically released to about march for me to finally get the nefarious musketeer weapon. (I think it's called the nova blaster.) But i've been trying ever since the tower came up to even now for the Buck weapon. STILL no luck.

Yar, there be a time or two where I've had some of the worst kind of bad luck in both games and it be pretty rare when it comes out nowhere like that.

don't worry it will drop eventually. just think of all the great stuff you got while you've been farming and all the great stuff you will get in the time it will take to get it

in wizard101 i seem to be pretty lucky from time to time (survived a hard battle with about 13 health, a friend couldn't make it but i survived and finished the dungeon) at the end of gh where you have to fight the helephant
(im a fire so yaaaaa...) i had 1 prism left, a helephant and one blade. i managed to critical with the blade and prism and beat him while one hit would have killed me. but one day i hope that luck will come over to pirate to, but when bad luck happens (even if its rare for you) just hope it will pass and call in a favor from one eyed jack.
