So far from all of my turn-ins, the best items I have are:

Jackals Collar (from blackrock pillar event piece)
3x Midnight Bracers
Ring of the Vile

8+ Verite Runics
15+ Agapite Runics

A ton of tokuno items and pigments, and a ton of peerless reagents and mining gems.

i traded in 9 motherload pieces and one tiny gem piece.

I only got perfect emeralds, turquis gems, muclant, scouge, putrification, a one use tokono dye and two +30 hammers.

What a bust. Sad

For something that is supposed to be random it surprises me that out of 27 turned in blackrock (the small ones that fell around the world) I got 4 darken skies and 4 gloves of the sun. All the rest I got duplicates in, at times I got the same items in a row.

and here they said that they fixed the random number script Rolling Eyes

not suprised. ive seen a lot of engines do that. when you base a ton of crap on random numbers, you better pay more attention to your random number script than just 'oh look the number is changing, yay'

Most random number generators tend to streak. I forget who said it, but some programmer that works for an MMORPG said that it would take an incredible amount of code to have a -true- random number generator. One that doesn't streak.

I still have a few peices but I'm keeping them.
I traded in one of the original ones and got a Daimo's Helm. Was a pretty nice rip off.
