50% rare up REMINDER TO ALL!

[DoubleCannon]

Starting in 20 minutes for 24 hours! Goodluck to all with finding that rare you want!

For me I will be spamming tundra with team mates in hopes to get twin brand!

P.S. I will feel stupid if I was wrong on the timing but it's suppose to be midnight japan in 18 min now? so 50% should begin here EST time at 11:00am (thursday)

bill nye the science guy! BILL BILL BILL! lol

[Limbo_lag]

Oh. Didnt know it was so soon. Thanks for the heads up :D

[Skyly HUmar]

you mean gl not finding anything as usual? lol. I doubt 50% drop rate will do much, but lol sounds good for stones in exq and aq. so thats something.

[Crysteon]

Today's the day everyone goes ham with 250% Drop and 100% Tri-boosters, lol.

Still.....RNG would give you nothing more than grinders and red weapons most of the time.

[Gama]

id rather get a 50% exp boost.

[Z-0]

I think 50% RDR rate will do a lot. 50% RDR over 24 hours is pretty significant. . . I think the reason drop rate boosters are so useless most of the time is their limited time (although they still most definitely work if you stack them high during something like an exit burst, although it's still probable you won't find anything lmao).

[DoubleCannon]

just did 1 run of desert aq... and WAY more rares dropped for everyone. mostly red's im sure but i also got 76 stones and 28 A-caps lol. regardless I will take 50% rare all day! I still like getting ??? weapons :) just cause that odd tek may be a 10*

[Coatl]

I once had a triboost + rare ticket boost + team tree rare boost going at the same time in a +78 Tundra Advanced Quest. No one can say they don't work after I picked up twenty *7s.

Try using 250% rare ticket + 100% tri + lucky rise + rare up on drink + tree boost.. with todays 50%

Now that would be epic

[Cyron Tanryoku]

Dat 0.10 rare chance

[jooozek]

can't wait to get ingame and collect all the 赤 ubers

just so you know in some situations rdr is a trap

[DoubleCannon]

Dat 0.10 rare chance

you know.. has anyone actually proven how the drop % actually is? if this is like PSO style with a 1/10000 then giving yourself a 400% boost is basically making it 1/2500 chance.

And my best guess is the system is a 1/xxx rng style. thus if it was set 1/1000 and the rare number is 568, with a rare boost say 400% = 4 times less the max number put in so now its 250 numbers with rare number say 165. you have a much better chance at getting that rare number. There is real code behind rng. and just makes sense the rare boost would work like this.

[jooozek]

quest logs aren't hidden you know
well, extreme quests aside

[MetalDude]

Best way to guess rates is number of finds along with rarity of the enemy in question in comparison to other rares and their target drop. Basically, if one 10* had 1000+ drops logged, you can usually expect it to be pretty reasonable. Anything between 100-200 is pretty damn hard to get and anything below that, you might as well kill yourself.

[BIG OLAF]

Oh neat, something I won't be able to take advantage of because everyone I know is already in full parties, taking advantage of it. Cool!

Congrats!














*cries in the corner* T_T

[Coatl]

Two ruin charms so far today.

[Reiketsu]

Wow, I'm jealous ;_;" Congrats!

Tried my luck as well with 250% and 100% tri booster and I got about 30 rares in one Ruins AQ run. Some 9* Twin Mech, 10 untekked ones which were only junk and the rest red weapons except for one. Amaterasu was the only good thing in that huge pile of red crap lol

[UnLucky]

Now let's hope Falz hits so I can not get those rares

[Zorafim]

...I guess I should hunt those ragne units or something.

...

*reads comic books instead*

Jesus

yes this is what caught my attention

[Exiled_Gundam]

Jesus

yes this is what caught my attention
Each grind costed 12,500 meseta and 4 grinders. Then I bought 8 grind risk protect (around 230k each), 2 grind success +10% (around 320k each) and 1 grind success +20% (770k). After I +10 it, left 1 grind success +10% and 1 grind success +20%, and 3 grind risk protect. Close to 300 grinders spent too (and I cant remember the number of grind risk +1 used). This one hits grind risk -3 when going to +7, and for +10 it's -4

[MetalDude]

-4, seriously? I mean, at the very least you're pretty much required to use full protects, but what the hell man. If this still stays around by the time 11*'s become the norm, I quit.

Good thing the price of full protect dropped quite a lot compared to last time (was 1m+ each last time)

................... a flame visit with 7 abilities!?... 7!!! I have only ever once managed a 7 affix item.. and you... you manage it on an uber rare. What.. the hell lol

[UnLucky]

burn 5, elder soul, dark res, r-def, t-def, r-atk 2, lucky rise

not as good as a proper 2s affix, but it does have RDR (though he's got the Vraolet for that)

[DoubleCannon]

i cant believe i never knew about varolet's potential! tomorrow i am going to buy one and potential it to lv 3 asap for boss drops :)

[otaku998]

Though, mind me asking what are those 7 affix?

Edit : nvm, didn't notice Unlucky post.

Only increases chance of rare items being boxed iirc.

[ArcaneTechs]

赤い weapons all day everyday

your right, doesnt increase rare drop rate like everyone thought

[Walkure]

Need to see the distributions of results to see if it's that bad.

Currently, for 10*'s, there's a chance of going down -3 from a grind, but the most common result by far is going down -1. That's what makes a +1 protection more cost-effective for a full protection for 10* weapons at the moment.

Without estimates for the distribution of succeeding, failing with -0, -1, -2, -3, -4, it's not quite knowable how expensive it is to take up a 12* weapon yet. Because they're currently still rare, there isn't enough data on grinding to know that well either.

If/when 11*+ weapons become the norm, there will at least be a volume of data collected so that there's at least some idea of how to minimize costs on average.

[BlankM]

Guess I'll save up more boosters for next week. All I got from 250%+100% boosters were reds, Latria Rain, and a Dahgash Talis after 20-30 ruins runs.

Oh I guess I got an 11* unit from XQ. But I can't sell those. :(

[Z-0]

I found...

...absolutely nothing. Except that 10* Talis from Dagacha, I guess.

[Crysteon]

I did 80 floors of Forest and Dragons XQ with some friends, using 250% rare drop tickets + 50/100% Tri-boost + Lucky Rise set + Lv 7 Rare Drop Tree Buff...aaaaand what did I find?

Just a stupid 11* unit for Rangers/Gunners I cant even use....oh yeah, and around 600 first tier stones and 8 second tier. The fuckton of pyro weapons I got do not count, because they are cheap as fuck atm.

At least I got rid of that bunch of cubes I had rotting in my storage >_>

[Neith]

I got a Red Double Saber and a Safoie 15 disc. Go me (that was using a 250% rare ticket). :lol:

[DoubleCannon]

Only increases chance of rare items being boxed iirc.

yes this is exactly why I want it. bought one with lucky rise and made it lv 3 potential. on boss drops i want untekked rares not crappy tekked ones like i got.. during boost day, gwana daggers.. 0 abilities... excubed lol

[LordShade]

boxed yasminkov 9000m and ragne launcher :D

sold both for around 9mil profit all up, was awesome.

[Rien]

The rare boost didn't feel like a rare boost

But then this only refers to rare drops, not rare spawns.
