Elixirs of Discovery do not adjust odds of any given item within the Named Item List. There are a few other items in that chest's Named Item List, and those are more likely to appear when pulling from the Named Item List than the Cursed Blade of Jack Jibbers. There is nothing unique about the way the Cursed Blade of Jack Jibbers is dropped other than its lower-than-average drop rate. |
