I understand that you are saying that by running it more then you have increased your chances oif seeing it drop but I am saying that the actual drop rate of the mount never changes, so if it was run three hundred times with the mount being a one per cent drop rate, then the chance of seeing it drop out of all runs is three per cent, but the actual drop rate is still one per cent. I obviously didn't explain what I meant very clearly but you could run a million times and the mount will only drop at a one per cent rate each time. The simplified form of 3 out of 300 being one out of 100. And I did not do a serious course in Maths, but the maths teacher sitting next to me did severeal years ago :). So to summarise, yes if it was a one per cent drop and you ran it 500 times you would have increased your chance of seeing it, but it is always going to drop at the same rate every time....one per cent.
