    Have you ever been blessed with perfect RNG at the exact moment you want an item?

    Two days ago, I was running a Level 3 Control Point to obtain the Mantis. I didn't think it would drop that day and I was short on time so I couldn't reset and grind. The first box I opened in the supply room contained a Mantis. I love playing looter games but I don't think I've ever been surprised like that before.

    For me, it's always the other way around. I get the stuff when I don't farm it.

    Best RNG I've had recently was doing project for Ridgeway's Pride. I needed to donate a Zero F's chest and went to a district that was dropping Badger's as target loot. First patrol I killed dropped it. Shortest farming run ever.

    Not at the exact moment, but I remember needing a nice Ceska backpack with headshot damage, hazard protection, and concussion. I knew going into this grind wasn't going to be in my favor, due to how many things needed to be right on the piece

    Mission after mission, nothing. Next day, control point after control point, nothing. Finally, Ceska was trade center target farm. Beginning of the mission, flooded hallway. I had got it to drop with some sweet percentages. I picked it up.... then I delta'd. I wasn't worried because I had picked it up before I disconnected. I reconnected about 30 minutes later, ready to marvel at the backpack I spent so much time grinding for. Checked my inventory... it wasn't there LOL.

    I had been looking for a well rolled Police M4. Opened up the faction box just before the elevator on Tombs. Looked at it on the ground, and it was god rolled! But one of my group had already triggered the elevator countdown, and I didn't get to pick it up

    Several times in a couple days. It started to kinda freak me out.

    I was running a tier 6 skill build when I went to NYC for the first time and kinda wanted to keep it.
    I'd craft gear after leveling a few times and I'm not joking when I say 4/5 times, the crafted piece would be all yellow. +1 tier. Skill damage. Skill haste/repairs. Even improvised gear with mod slots. lol

    Not my usual luck I'm accustomed to in this franchise. Just a run of dumb luck.
