Trying to farm specific equipment effects? I might be able to help.

Over the past few months I've been experimenting with equipment, and that means farming like crazy (...get it?)! Using the quick first striker batter setup in crazy orders is pretty fast, but even it wasn't giving me the pieces I wanted.

Well, if you're like me, you've probably got the "All Equipment Effects" challenge unlocked, and that's where the problem starts... as well as the solution! I didn't get any anchor jump pieces of equipment BEFORE I deleted the one I had (which was useless to me because it was not a generic one), but AFTER I deleted it, in my next round of crazy orders, I got a new one just like that!

...And then I deleted it. Again, not a generic badge that everyone can use. Guess what? ANOTHER Anchor Jump badge popped up in the first crazy orders run I did after the deletion, albeit it took a few more turns for me to get it this time.

Basically, if I had to guess why this happened, I would say that equipment drops may not be truly random, and the game may try to intentionally give you the specific effects you do not have, in order to help you with the 'all effects' challenge. Regardless, being able to rig the lottery is nice, isn't it?
