Default Rare Item Drop Rate

Does anyone happen to know anything concrete about how the item drop rate works for the game? Everywhere I look there's no hint of knowing how it works and I'm wondering if there's even a formula or if every item is different and there's no pattern. I just killed over 500 zombies today after discovering Tir Na Nog and when I looked them up saw that they could drop a Traditional Tir Chonaill Dress. But 500 zombies and no drop? This really worries me that drop rates for some items are insanely low.

My main concern is that I had a plan to kill Black Golems someday (I like to dream big) and get that Rose Plate B armor it drops as a reward for mastering golem combat. Should I not try it because the item drop rate would be way too low for it to be practical, or is it just different for certain monsters (like, zombies just happen to have a very low chance of dropping their special item but Black Golems drop Rose Plate B's more frequently in comparison)? Any help or ideas of how it could work are appreciated as always. Thanks!

Just be careful when you are going to fight the Black golem Ceo Boss, it usually spawns with 5 Ceo Golems or so, and i may had bad luck, but it always spawned over my head, aggroing and killing me in no time, so try to find a safe place.
Concerning the drop rate, i have no idea if anyone knows, this is not like Ragnarok Online which you can find the Drop Rates in the Wikis.

Black Ceo Golem Boss is murder. I soloed it and I cried because not only did it spawn with 5 red golems, but it spawned next to a couple of sprites. D:

It seems like no one knows any exact drop rate formula for things.
The best sources right now are from those who have had experience finding the items.
JP wiki also has a monster-drop-rate list, but it describes drop rates as "very high, high, common, uncommon, rare, very rare," and "chance is almost 0%".
