Isnt rng linked with odds and getting unlucky linked with odds !!! Get real man you got screwed up because of odds
Sorry for that, but in my mind there’s a fairly big difference between perception of being unlucky and actually being unlucky. So many people have complained on this forum about being unlucky when they’ve actually got an average result or sometimes even better than average. I’ve wanted to discourage people from complaining about that type of thing, but I know it’s pretty heartless to do so.
At the end of the day it’s RNG making us feel horrible either way because our brains want consistent results. I definitely sympathise with that.
The one link is that because mythics are 1% chance (pretty low) the variance in when you get them (via RNG) is higher so it’s more likely for someone to end up with a below/above average result over a long period of time.
However, complaining with vague statements like “the odds are bad” and wanting changes that basically equal reducing the price of stuff is not a band wagon I jump on. People complain about odds no matter what the drop rate is and of course the game is going to be designed so things are expensive because that’s how they make m0ney from people.
The 30th pack pity time knocks off the bottom 10.5% of bad luck, which seems fair enough to me. It helps people who are truly being unlucky.
The one pity timer idea I would get behind is if there was a mechanic that if you hatched a copy of a mythic when your pity mythic was fewer than 10 packs away then the pity timer reset to 20 rather than 30. If you got the pity mythic then it would reset to 30 as normal.
E.g. You get the mythic in the 24th pack, then the next would be guaranteed in 20 packs. If you, again, got it in 13th pack then it would reset to 20 again. If the third happened in 10th pack then the pity timer would reset to 30.
What this would do is help with those edge cases where somebody is getting unlucky but not being helped by the pity timer.
Come on man there is no need to use politicians wording here. Be honest to yourself for once
Your upset because the odds where not in your favor and said am unlucky and blaming RNG. RNG in itself refer to the probability where probability and odds are the same word in 99% of cases when talking casually
Your more upset because you had to spend m0ney on your gems, that you feel scammed that you did not get a mythic copy in 400 or 800 gems
1% doesnt need to be changed but what needs to be changed is how the pity timer works, 800 and 1200 gems which equal pack 20 and 30 should guarantee a mythic copy that would solve everyone problem. Its like your cap ceiling at 2400 gems which many games do and no reset until you hit the 30th pack
