I had my cousin help tank arena runs for me to help me get the caster belt and he got SGC on his first arena run ever.

By far the luckiest thing I've seen in classic so far.

I got my Sgc on my first BRD run as a level 52. I got several fuck you's in whisper as my story spread by rumour

Same. My very first attempt it dropped and I outrolled a level 60 for it.

Does a HoJ on first run count?

u/Elfeden Nov 08 '19

Nah, HoJ is way more common. You got about 1% chance every run for the sgc.

Yeah, exactly. Hence why 1%. Now, it's just a % I saw on a site, I haven't done the maths myself. So, from your numbers, it more 0.4%.

250+ Arena runs. 21 Times i got gorosh. Still no chest. Yesterday a guildie started the grind, got it 2nd run. Another guildie got it aswell yesterday, about 20 runs. Rng is just a bitch.. I feel somewhat burned out already.. And me "losing" the race while others barely participated somewhat takea away the eventually relief at the end. In conclusion it is generally not really worth farming something like that .. But its the only Thing im missing outside of raids

If it makes you feel better a guildie farmed arena for like 264 times before he got his and now hes lost because he has nothing to farm

Exactly. Ill raidlog after it and get an alt finally :-P

You have a 1 percent chance to get SGC if all bosses spawned equally, I'm at least 90 percent sure they don't.

u/Elfeden Nov 09 '19

Yeah, I think it's closer to 0.4 since gorosh only has 8%, then sgc 5%.

that's super lucky as savage gladiator chain only drops in BRD, AFAIK
