    Default Sometimes random rolls are not fun

    So I am trying to scroll heal myself after a fight. I have a 75% chance (so I need a 6). I would expect a few misses but this was ridiculous. (Yellow highlights mine)



    (And yes, I know how random numbers work and am not complaining about that. Just thought this was funny. At least it wasn't at a critical time and I could repeat as often as needed.)

    Wow!

    I often see misses and failures come in streaks but that is crazy!

    I have had similar occurrences on many games. I remember once, on Neverwinter, I failed on a node (75% success chance) 12 times in a row. Needless to say, I did not buy any lottery tickets that day and looked both ways several times before crossing any streets

    I just remembered where I have seen this before in DDO--leveling Cannith Crafting.
