disclosure of the loot system

Does the drop chance increase with the number of players on the server?
Does the drop chance increase/decrease with the number of people alive/dead?

More players on the server, means more bots that spawn, which increases the amount of dice being tossed. The chance is always the same

Does the loot generate at the point of boss/mob spawn or at the point of their deaths?
Are there 2 RNGs or 1(is it pre determined who gets the item(at the point of boss spawn,he already has the item and it is the same RNG that determines who will get it if the boss is killed))
IF you are alive at point of boss spawn and are preordained for the loot,and you are dead for the point of bosss death,does the item have a new RNG,or does it get absorbed back into the fray(goes into limbo,disappears)

At the point of death. When a bot dies, a die is rolled per player.

Can 2 ppl loot from the same mob?

Materials yes, legendaries no.

Is there a factor that will increase the chance at all?

No.

No; it's not broken.
No; there is nothing that influences your own chance

Out of curiosity, do you guys keep statistics on how often drops occur and how they are distributed across how many players (and how active those players are)? I think it would make some people feel better about the current system if someone could reassure them that the various cases of "never looting vs. looting multiple times" are just normal statistical outliers and not a bug in the code.

We do have a loot notification when someone loots, but no system to view exactly how often someone loots, or how much of a legendary dropped.
We want to give everyone the fairest chance with the current system to get a loot, this includes players that have just joined or veteran players that have played for years; all get the same chance.
