The Perk-Distribution Bug has existed since at least Final Shape, 4 months ago. It just didn't happen on any popular perk combinations, so it flew under everyone's radar. Media

"There's no reason that Moving Target + Threat Detector should be 17x more likely than MT + Repulsor Brace."

Truthteller was reissued when Final Shape came out. Notoriously, it was panned as a pretty shitty reissue, with no good rolls, no clearly defined god roll, and overall just everyone moved on and ignored it.

However, even on Truthteller, the perk distribution is night and day. This is the exact same bug that's on Chill Inhibitor.

It's just that nobody was crying they couldn't get "Harmony + Grave Robber" on the GL. Out of tens of thousands of drops, only 161 people got Danger Zone + Elemental Capacitor.

That is fractions of a percent.

This bug has existed for a while. It's only just now, just this season, just recently, that it's finally happened to a meta defining god roll trait combination.

How long as this been in the system?

This is a tier of RNG that possibly beats getting Gally and Vex on your first Vault of Glass clear in D1.

I have a single clear of Last Wish and got both the curated Nation of Beasts back when it was S tier, and 1KV in the same run.

How does it feel knowing RNGesus has found a new favorite?

Probably quite easily. These superweighted combos are about 1/450-500 range just for the 2/5 (MossyMax on twitter). If D1 was even close to D2, we're looking at 5-10%. Even if it was .5% back then that's 1/200 lol.

I got Icebreaker my third run, Envious+Bait on around my 7th run, and Demo+Attrition on Velocity on or around my 5th. What does that make mine?
