A month I reported on a collaborative effort to work out how Mythic Orbs worked - https://youtu.be/kzMpXpC-N98 - at the time, probably the biggest player discovery of the year.
That heavily relied upon unique item rarity tiers - something that's been partially understood, but that we now know far more about courtesy of amazing work by many people in PoorFishWife's discord. I've been a contributor to this effort, but probably only 5% of cracking this code.
