Can someone tell me, how many times do i have to make nDemo/eDemo to get +5 Brutality or +5 Rising Power?
I would like to know the number of the eDemo/nDemo runs i have already done.

Seriously though, even with the changes to the drop rates it's a crapshoot.

Ive run ndemo and epic probably 3 to 5 times a day for the last 6 months and don't even have +4 versions of a brutality or rising power.
Ive only got 1+5 rising focus and it came from pom.
The good news is, you can complete all the PVE content just fine without one (I know, I haven't gotten a single +5 drop).
As for PVP, well there are larger issues there than if you have a +5 ring or a +4 one (or more likely a ring better suited to a PVP build... I don't PVP anymore so not sure what BIS is for such builds).

@tripsofthrymr, I appreciate your up beat approach but following the changes all I have recieved are a swath of +1 rings. On the numerous run I've seen no evidence nor heard of any drops to convince me that the changes are remotely effective.
But beware. If you do get this run the game will crash, everyone's accounts will be deleted, earthquakes, floods, aliens, armageddon, ragnarok, judgment day...
On a more serious note, the question you asked can only be answered like this because the ways of the RNGesus are mysterious. (until China says they have to be revealed).
I could be wrong but I don't think there is a Chinese locale set up for this game for China.
I've run enough edemo to equip my first 8 toons(one of each class) with twisted weapons. In all those runs I pulled 2 +5 rings. My third just popped this weekend on my first run. Not one of them was a ring of rising power or brutality.
The bitter pill to swallow here is that I need my +5 Brutality THEN need the +5 Sudden Precision which will be a whole new beast to tackle!!
A place to swap them would be nice however making them tradable would also help. I have 3 that I will never use, let me trade or sell them to someone who will use it!
You're implying that my chances of a +5 ring have gone up from 0.00001% to 10.00001%?
If that were really true, you wouldn't be seeing threads like this.
I had a lot of keys saved up, and they're all gone, with drops that looked no better than before the key change - lots of +1/+1.
Even if a legendary ring drops finally for you, the odds are badly stacked against it being the treasured +5 brutality. Expect to get extremely likely many times, before you get what you actually want!
Absolutely no question that the inability to peek in chests put us far further behind than what the "RNG improvement" gave us.
I think the other trinket drops were added to help distract from that obvious truth.
Whilst the RNG improvement might mean that a handful of winners has grown to be a few handfuls of winners, the basic reality is that the vast majority of continue to be losers.
But, there is GOOD news! Now, when you run out of keys, you know to stop trying, and go find something else do to.
No more endless effort at eDemo runs for disappointing chest peeks!
Of course, that sensible logic is ultimately bad news if you apply it across the current landscape:
- The last half of the campaign boons are ridiculously low value for their voninblood grind? - don't do it!
- Farming FBI for new armor set, but it's terrible RNG + grind delivering poor value? - don't do it!
- Farming Svardborg for weapon set superior marks, but it's terrible RNG + grind delivering poor value? - don't do it!
- Logging when you have everything except these mod 10 bits - don't do it?!?!?!
