64 or 63. Gold dungeons don't have valk tools at loot. They have phoenix, iron bubbles, lifeshards, vamp swords, etc.
Silver dungeons are the ones with valk tools.

That's what I thought. Soooo why no valk picks? Was the drop rate incredibly diminished? 'Cause I've found a lot of valk axes and quite a few shovels.

You have 1 chance out of 9 that the special loot will be valkyrie tools (pick, shovel and axe). If it is the case, you have 1 chance out of 2 to get each tool.

What does this mean... That I have a 0.009% chance of getting one? 0_o

I don't think that's right, I got 44% chance.
(1/9)/2
1/9 to get the case called
And 50% chance to get a Valkyrie pick.
But I could of read the random Boolen wrong
