Bb,

With the exception of Seeker's Star (and maybe Fortune Carp(?))  the effectiveness  of "luck" talismans remain a mystery as the baseline drop rate may vary depending on when you play.

I have found that detective of genius (increases tool drop rate by 10%) works better when I banish an anomaly while running Seeker 's Star...but it is still a mystery as the detective of genius can fail miserably. I never got to tt milk talismans so I have always used them for the specified, standard duration while I had the energy to explore locations.

I have tried the event room as well but can't say that the drop rate is higher...the results tend to  swing depending on the time...

I also have not seen any evidence that using an eagle eye in combination with a ranger hire to explore a ranger charged location yields an increase in 60% drop. 😓
