It may be that the sample size is so small (and our perspective myopic). But, I just never seem to really find a truly random system in any MMO. There always seem to be streaks in loot drops based on servers, players, zones, etc. Then again, I suppose if a computer could truly master chance we would all be slaves to Skynet by now.
