We got: 10 Tower I Mobile Defense keys 8 Boltor Prime Stocks 2 Akbronco Blueprints 1 Dakra Prime Blueprint "Each reward shares equal rarity among all rewards in the same mission." Yeah, right.

FableTale Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Well it's all random and based on percentages so that's what you have to go in expecting. It's not like you can choose what you want. *cough* token system *cough* Oh man sorry about that cough; feeling a little under the weather.

truthless Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) On Survival II we burned over 25 keys at 35 minutes each (so a total of at least 150 rewards) before we got 1 Fang Prime Blade. Assuming equal chance drops, the chances for going 150 rewards in a row without getting a particular reward from a pool of 8 (6 + core and cash) possible rewards is approximately 2*10^-9. That's 0.00000002%. There's RNG, and then there's blatantly false information. edit: Fixed math. Edited March 8, 2014 by truthless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamal965 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 "Each reward shares equal rarity among all rewards in the same mission." Stop believing the wikia. DE has already stated, on multiple occasions, that they're divided into different rarities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truthless Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 Stop believing the wikia. DE has already stated, on multiple occasions, that they're divided into different rarities. Actually the wiki was at one point divided into different rarities until Rebecca stated that they all have the same rarity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SquirmyBurrito Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 If I drop a six-sided die six times, I'm not likely to get each side represented in that sample. Assuming each part has equal rarity the same would hold true here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming each part has equal rarity the same would hold true here. I challenge you to drop a 5-sided die 21 times, getting 3 twice, 4 once and never 5. Even better: drop a 8-sided die 150 times and not getting 8 once. Edited March 8, 2014 by truthless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even better: drop a 8-sided die 150 times and not getting 8 once. Sure, I'll do it. But only if you go out and purchase the dice for me. I don't have a D5 or a D8 just sitting around. I will also ask that you pay me since sitting around, dropping, and recording die rolls is not my idea of a fun past time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure you also won't live long enough to throw the D8 a few million times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its random, nothing says I couldn't do it on my first try. I'll take 9 USD min. per hour and I expect to be paid at the end of each day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
