The other day I decided to do a stratum 5 run to try and get some elite orbs for my miracle set. By the end I had 2 eternal orbs, 0 elite.

I thought something was wrong, so I decided to do a run from stratum 3 all the way to stratum 6. By the end I tallied up. I had acquired a total of five 3* orbs (forgot what they're called), and 6 eternal orbs.

Do I have really bad luck or are the drop rates for elite orbs borked?

Sorry to break it to you, but

I've done about 50 elite Jelly runs in the last month

only got 1 elite orb and 2 advanced orbs

On the other hand roarmulus twins

I got 1 Eternal orb for about 5 runs

Guess how much sparks of life I got out of those runs?
Try 25:P

I hate to break it to you, but I've gotten butt loads of eternals from FSC, and over 302 sparks also from FSC So, the joke's on you.

Topic related: I guess it's just luck I guess.

Do stratum 4, but decide that you want to find advanced orbs. At least, when I do that I only find elites instead of advanceds. -_-

@Zeddy, yeah that might be better, as you might jinx yourself :P

erhm...

Don't do bosses... run the arcade, try to find treasure vaults on the proper stratum for what you seek. Stratum 4 for Elite orb ^ ^

I have a harder time with Advanced... dunno why >.<

Damn you RNG!!!

Within a recent span of time, I've gotten 2 elite orbs from doing T2 clockworks runs, and 3 advanced orbs.

Inbetween Moorcroft Manor and the rest area.

RNG decided to be nice to me, only after I spent energy

For once, I decided to buy 6 elite orbs from the supply depot. Since then, I've found at least 7 elite orbs, three in one tier two run, one right next to the other. I think I'm undergoing the lockbox syndrome.
