About a month ago I got FSOD and when I started my game back up I had a time of 9999'59. I thought it was the strangest thing and I wondered if it would affect my rares, when my time was like that I found 4 rares within 25 minutes and i had seen a Nar Lily that dropped a Devil/Battle. My time fixed itself so i am lvl 66 with a time of about 0002'11 which sucks since rares are based on how long you play, plus, I've been working on Episode 3 a lot so It will take me a while just to get to work on my FOmar for Episode 1 & 2.

Its all done with probablility, the more time you play the better chance you have of getting a rare, because you have a high time total you have killed a monster more times than you would have of on your first few goes, there is still a chance of getting it but not a big as you would when you have a high time total.
You are both right in a way I guess

Even though my time has gone back down I did happen to see a love rappy offline in Temple 1. I also put my IQ at 200 on my mag so I have better chances to find rares.

Mags IQ has nothing to do with rares , it's just used for better PB effects and event bonuses.
