Regarding Tormenta I was wondering historically where has everyone looted more of their famed and/or legendaries. What is the percentage of famed and/or legendaries looted in specific areas inside Cursed Caves?

TyNice poll ya got there Robert
I don't know how to answer your question though, all I can say is luck. I've looted nautilus in a pouch, barracuda at the place with spineskulls by the bridge, sharkfang and blightfang at the bridge, web in gold room on a friend's acct... I don't know really. Many of my famed and legendaries have been looted in Thralls and Bridge
Everyone has their own opinion on how the loot in POTCO is distributed. My personal opinion is that it is a series of random number generators. The first series determines a district/server to have a higher chance of better drops. The second determines what loot container drops from the enemy when they spawn. And the third determines what loot will be inside. Now I could be entirely wrong, but this is what I have seen through my looting, and seeing others loot.
So there are several ways, if you believe my theory, to get good loot. One, jump around servers and islands hoping to get lucky. Two, stay in one spot all day long and 75% chance at least one good thing will drop. Even that 75% chance means basically nothing because it's a chance; you still have to get lucky.
In my opinion this system is terrible. A small factor of luck is always good, but It's based purely on luck. This breaks the entire game. PvP is broken because of overpowered weapons that not everyone has, and the people who do just got lucky. There are no hard enemies if you have one of these overpowered weapons, and it makes it unfair for those who don't have them. Looting becomes easier with these weapons because you kill more enemies per second which increases your chances, because of more loot drops.
Wow. If someone has done the data collection, knowing percentages would be great. Just based on personal experience, I have gotten multiple skull chests in a row more against the larger enemies at Thrall room than anywhere else. Generally speaking, the higher the level of enemy, the greater chance for the good chests.
However, even in the best spots, it takes time to find the skull chests and even more time to find the better weapons or clothing. We are talking weeks or months not a few hours. (Never once found a black kilt). Focusing on finding legendary weapons can be frustrating because they are so rare. Focusing more on leveling or gold keeps the frustration away and a famed weapon becomes a nice surprise.
I've found a cursed famed in every room but the bridge... we have a rocky relationship...I don't want to talk about it...
