Are you not hitting the mod you want or literally not getting a mod to roll?

What mod are you trying to get, on what item?

Do you have a fractured mod on it? I guess that can prevent it from rolling another mod. Don't know the odds, but 0/20 in that case seems pretty unlikely.

I'm testing that in the emulator as well. No extra mod does seem to happen fairly often. Maybe half the time on my tests. If you hit 0/20 on a coin flip, don't know what tell you, but would seem to be highly unlikely. I don't know how to set it up for eldritch currency in the simulator. Unsure if their numbers are accurate either.

Having said that, i just hit 18 misses in a row on the emulator, so perhaps it is much higher than 50% to get nothing.

I'm unsure, but I think the mods roll like a normal chaos orb. I'll try and find some more information about the odds of how many mods you hit.

https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Chaos_Orb

It lists the mod distribution here for regular chaos orb as 4, 5, or 6 at a ratio of 8:3:1, So I suppose that means 1/3 chance of more than 4 mods. 0/20 would still seem pretty unlikely. Maybe there's more to it with the Eldritch one.

I did also read a post from about 4 years back that their may of been a bug, causing it to roll more mods than it should and it got lowered. Don't know if that is correct. Probably needs someone who has a bit more crafting experience to weigh in.

Crafted an item and thrown 20 eldritch chaos orbs on it to realize it added literally nothing to the item. It rolled nothing.

It added nothing! 20 times in a row it added nothing and gave me nothing, even if the item had no mods on it that could hinder it from adding anything. It was like just throwing the orbs on the ground and expecting something to happen.

To have such an effect from a chaos orb that is supposed to reroll stats is wild

rerolling items is weighted towards 4 modifiers(doesn't matter how you are rerolling an item).

Item had only 3 modifiers. Rerolled 20 times and it changed nothing on it.

But even with 1 fractured, if that would have been the case it would be wild to not get anything out of it, even alterations hit 2 mods most often with 1 fractured.

And I also would struggle to understand why it is like that to be honest....
