| Ores (N) | P(Crimson Handaxe) no lock | Expected forges | With RNG lock |
|---|---|---|---|
| 15 | 6.1% | ~1 in 17 | needs 20 ores |
| 20 | 6.3% | ~1 in 16 | ~1 in 4 locked |
| 25 | 4.6% | ~1 in 22 | ~1 in 4 locked |
| 55 | 0.0% | ~1 in 2,392,401 | ~1 in 4 locked |
"Expected forges" = 1 ÷ combined probability of rolling the class and this variant. RNG lock removes the class roll once N ≥ 20, leaving only the 27.8% variant roll.
Solved at the Crimson Sakura Isles anvil with RNG lock targeting the Axe class — BiS god-roll, clean zero-waste split, and a no-raid farmable fallback.
