It's not a proven fact, afaik, but the common consensus is that rare enemies have an appearance rate of 1/512 per enemy that can have a rare counterpart. That comes to a 0.1953125% chance. And this is only for Episode 1&2 (GC/XB/PC new).

For ver.1 and ver.2 (DC/PC old) it was 1/1024. That comes to a 0.09765625% chance. Ouch.

1/512? Such a low chance...it's too bad it doesn't increase at any time. Curse-ed RNG! Then again,it's not definite,is it?

And to think I found two Nar Lilies in the same room yesterday...not to mention one person(forgot name)found two Hildetorrs in the same room awhile ago.

Well I've found two Pal Rappies simultaneously (naturally), and three different sets of two Mil Lilies simultaneously (one naturally, two piped). You have to remember that it's pretty random. By all accounts it could be possible to find nine Mil Lilies simultaneously in the pipe room of Waterfall Tears, but the chances of that actually happening are beyond rediculous. Just remember that 1/512 (or whatever chance shows up) is just the calculation each time the event occurs and doesn't mean it's going to happen in exactly 512 (or whatever).

9 Mil Lilies in one room? I'm guessing that the chance for that to happen would be
1/1237940039285380274899124224.

The calculator I used doesn't go that far in percentage. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Actually, the highest rarity of any drop on ver 2 was roughly 1/137,659,209 for the V. Hard Skyly Booma drop, which was the '75 Agito. The lowest possible drop rate for any drop that the game can allow is rougly 1/429,469,729,600.

Well, don't know about rare enemy chances but I often do Redria FoS runs around 290-400 and usually run into 5+ torrs, too bad I still haven't gotten the stupid Iritsia rock from those bastards.
