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.
