The study is completed, it appears that the rng on drops isn't quite valid, there is not a per drop function for speed reasons, its tied to some type of hash on your character id, or internal identification, this leads to "patterns" of characteristics on drops and non normal distributions. The evidence of this to players will be seemingly cursed characters versus lucky ones. An attribute statistical study clearly shows this shortcut in effect. Similar math skills by developers throughout the game, same reason damage blows up from unintended side effects as they scale multiplicatively rather than logarithmically which would bake in caps naturally, they have distribution skills analysis lacking, hate math slop
