A player in Path of Exile 2 has dedicated 16 consecutive days to gathering data about the game’s item rarity system. His findings confirm that while item rarity does not necessarily result in more loot, it does increase the chances that the loot received is of better quality.

The journey began as players expressed frustration over the holiday awaits, and Slipperyjim8 took it upon himself to test the theory by clearing 150 Waystones and later combating 1800 rare monsters over his extensive gameplay.
Key Findings:
- The item rarity stat seems to provide higher chances for valuable loot rather than increasing the overall amount of loot dropped.
- Jim posits that player dissatisfaction with the rarity system often stems from comparing drop rates and values with other players.
- His conclusion reinforces that players should focus on enjoying the game rather than getting fixated on perceived flaws in the loot systems.
