Drop Rate x1.5

Drop Rate x1.5

Postby Meb » Mon Dec 29, 2014 1:55 pm

I've tried combing through the forums to search for this answer but have been unable to do so. So if there is already a topic that addresses this please give me a polite shove in the right direction.

If no this is my inquiry:

Does the "Drop Rate x1.5" just mean that the total DROPS are x1.5 or that the actual DROP RATE is x1.5?

I've been trying to get bonus cards through stage 5 for a while now and it seems that no matter which case (drop rate x1.5 or normal) on average I only end up with 4 or 5 chests.

I only did a small test so it may be may answers are skewed by a run of bad luck, but it is also based on what I've noticed while trying to 100% complete levels.

I did 5 runs each (drop rate x1.5 and normal) for Return of the Weaver in 25. Temple of Blaze. I used a double Hayyel dragon team w/ 2 7* and 2 6* dragons, only used Hayyel's skill to recover health, 5 coin spun until the end.
For "drop rate x1.5" i got the following number of chests: 5. 4, 4, 6, 6. Average of 5.0 chests
For the normal runs I got the following number of chests: 3, 5, 5, 4, 4. Average of 4.2 chests

P.S. Of the 46 total chests I received on these 10 runs I did not receive a single gold chest.

I usually get max 9 chest on all drop rate x1.5 by lowering my Lines:5 and Bet:5. Takes forever some times but that's what auto-spin/Netflix/YouTube is for lol. I usually check on the battle and if hit 8 chest turn it back up to max.

Hi Meb, the 1.5x drop rate bonus stages will have 1.5X higher chance to get the matching chests thus getting a reward card per each spin. The maximum chest drops in the stage are also increased to 1.5X of original.
Enjoy the game!

Thanks. I was just curious.

I can't field a team that I can autospin the chapter 5 quests with. The closest I can get is a dragon team with dual Hayyel and use his Full Heal skill when needed. Unfortunately that also means everyone has a high attack so I usually burn through it even on Lines: 5 and Bet:5. My concern wasn't necessarily about not getting all 9 chests, more that I felt I got the same number of chests with the same exact team on the same exact level whether or not the increased drop rate was active.
