I couldn't be more jealous... that is my most coveted character in the game. If I had one I would hug him and squeeze him and call him George.
Seriously though... he is a beast.
I noticed also, sometimes you get good loot from souls and sometimes you can open dozen souls and get only worthless chars. It could be sheer luck or it could be game team internal tweaking or even error in random number generating algorithm. So i use regular 2 star souls to get hint about how my lucky star is feeling today. I open 5 regular souls and if no red then stop. If i got red, then I'll try rare soul. I got 3 red characters from last 10 rare souls this way.
Generating random numbers with correct distribution is not so trivial task actually. I have MA in math. :)
I took my socks off too, sung wasted years, opened 1 rare soul obtained right now on the rift and.....
5* pharaoh eddie :D
Just opened my 24th Rare Gun/Assassin Soul.... Received my 24th 3 star piece of crap!!
Game was enjoyable for awhile, but now I'm done. The drop rates in this game are horrendous!
