RNG on the fritz?

Since the 'fix' to reactive ive only got common and one uncommon in almost the same number of runs.
Ive done somewhere around 27 across different toons and Powersets and have gotten one common and 26 uncommons..
I refuse to play this system anymore until it is fixed. I haent seen a rare in WEEKS and I have NEVER seen a very rare..
The hard things I can do--- The impossible just take a little bit longer.
If numbers are so much more important than a teammate who is fun to play with, forget about the game altogether and go play with a calculator instead. -Claws and Effect-

They messed with Reactive in yesterday's patch?? I still don't see any patchnotes available, so I don't have a clue what they did.

I don't suffer from altitis, I enjoy every minute of it.
Thank you Devs & Community people for a great game.
So sad to be ending ):
The problem is, the weighting of the incarnate component rewards is 50% "uncommon."
So long streaks of "uncommon" components are to be expected.

That's exactly what random is; a true PRNG has the same chance of churning out the same result 50 times in a row as 50 different results in a row.

I think someone need to rework the RNG. There is no way in hell this is random. |

23?! HA! On one character I did 52 trials and got nothing but uncommon. As said in another thread, either the participation meter is completely messed up for this character or random rewards for this is as stupid as everyone thinks it is. My bet is that it's both.

Participation doesn't affect which component you get, it only decides whether you even get a component at all or the 10 Thread door prize.

"You don't lose levels. You don't have equipment to wear out, repair, or lose, or that anyone can steal from you. About the only thing lighter than debt they could do is have an NPC walk by, point and laugh before you can go to the hospital or base." -Memphis_Bill
We will honor the past, and fight to the last, it will be a good way to die...

I think someone need to rework the RNG. There is no way in hell this is random. Random means:
1. proceeding, made, or occurring without definite aim, reason, or pattern: the random selection of numbers.
2. Statistics . of or characterizing a process of selection in which each item of a set has an equal probability of being chosen.
I now have 22 of each Uncommon, only 3 of each Common. Please fix this, as I know this can't be WAI.
