Im about 22 bonus stage 3 with ascension badge and 2 runs with ascension badge boost + ~10-15 pre ascension badge and have gotten no sword drops in these runs.
Collectively this is about 280% + 160% + ~40% = 480% which I should have gotten 4-5 sword drops at this rate. Ive tried on different PC's and mobile. I have 2 sword at the moment. Wondering if there is some bug I am having?
Other than the 2 swords my armory is empty.

Part 1: The first bonus stage completed after Armory is unlocked has a 100% chance to drop a Sword.

Yes, I have 2 and have had a dry season. Odd at this point is like 0.16% or like 1 in ~6,000 vs the normal odds of 14% or 1 in 7

% is just a theoradical thing
Exceptions still exist
Aka you are unlucky

Part 2:
14 runs of BS3 with no badge, no sword drop: 56.47% chance of happening (4% chance - 96% ^ 14)
20 runs of BS3 with badge, no sword drop: 4.9% chance (14% chance - 86% ^ 20)
2 runs of BS3 with badge and badge boost, no sword drop: 6.76% chance (74% chance - 26% ^ 2)

#

tl;dr : that's the odds for no swords, and you got 1 at least. only slightly unlucky.

you said you have two swords
So, you picked up 1 sword outside of the guaranteed one.

The purpose of sharing my sword count and armor slots was to make sure there wasn't some limitation that I'm missing

#

Either way, seems like its just an odds issue.

it s just unlucky .
if you search you'll probably find only people complaining for this.
but in fact the ones who get the opposite aren't complaining .
yeah, the odds are low.
but there is odds, so this have to happen to someone at least sometimes.
it's you 😉

Yeah that's fine, just wanted to make sure it wasn't some kind of bug that happens when I play with steam offline or across multiple devices etc

well, to be confirmed but
it may here be an anti-cheat feature -
but as far as I know, it's more the keys that doesn't show .
