I've been hearing rumors and rumblings that upgrading the THF AF2 hands takes away the TH+1 effect. I have experiences that seem to corroborate this but obviously it's anecdotal at this point.

Has anyone here done any hardcore testing to see if these things are actually effective?

After running perhaps 100 dynas with the nq hands, I had a string of bad runs and upgraded to the HQs. I have since run at least 100 more and have had better luck on average by a little bit. Id say theyre both working fine.

Thanks for the info. I had heard this theory from two people and when I tried HQ hands we got roughly 35% of our normal currency stash from that run so I was thinking maybe it was broken. More than likely it was just extreme bad luck though.

One run isn't enough to spot a trend. Hell I have over 100 data entries on moon%+drops and I still don't have anywhere near enough data to give an informed answer about moon% and drops.

As someone who has used both, there is no difference.

Appreciate the input. You're obviously right, one run isn't enough of a sample size to make any reasonable claim either way.

I do find it interesting that you say that you have over 100 data entries on moonphase and can't make a definitive call on whether that affects drops, but also say definitively that Armlets and Armlets +1 don't operate differently.

Because I've had both and done extensive OWNM/farming in that time. I made no correlation with my data from Dynamis to AF2 +1 not giving TH, I was simply pointing out that a single run is not going to give you an idea if TH isn't working.
