10 Video Game Trophies Made IMPOSSIBLE By RNG
7. Beginner’s Luck - Path Of Exile
This one is another case of dastardly drop-rates but instead of an action popping, you’re looking for a unique item. Specifically, a unique item that needs to drop in the Twilight Strand, the very first area in Act 1 in Path of Exile. By unique item, we’re talking about a class of drop so it’s pretty darn unlikely you’ll get an item that rare that early on in the game.
If you haven’t played Path of Exile before this is basically like expecting a Legendary to drop in the tutorial. It’s technically possible but teetering well over the fence toward impossible.
This is made even trickier because you cannot return to the starting area once you’ve entered the first town and you can’t manually reset Twilight Strand’s enemies so your best bet is to keep swapping between characters in the selection screen and hoping for the best. This one might take you a few minutes of grinding or a few hours.
That said, someone on Reddit reported only just popping the trophy after playing for eight years with a variety of different characters, so you might want to settle in for this one.
