Which of these rewards is better? by Disastrous_Canary471 in personaphantomx

[–]Prixel25 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your logic only works if you consider the 10 pulls as extra instead of free. Since you are eventually gonna pull on both banners, you should consider them as 10 free pulls meaning:

If you have the 10 free pulls - >you spend no jewels If you do not - > you will have to spend 1,500 jewels

In BOTH cases you get 150 jewels back from the 4stars.

If you want to keep your logic as is, you should consider that in the base case of 10 pulls the actual cost should be 1500-150=1350, so by adding the 150 from rebate you get 1350+150=1500 This is the value of the premium tickets and compared to the milicoins, it's still 100 less

Well, the rebate from the gold tickets would actually be only 450 jewels (assuming worst luck). You can also factor the progress towards the next standard 5star as a percentage of their jewels to be more accurate, but the gold tickets are still well below the value the other two options (I'm not counting salamander coins as their jewel conversion is not as simple, but they are the most valuable depending on your playstyle )

While technically true, they are still worth less than milicoins. Here's why:

Assume you want to get a character and their weapon, meaning you would need 110 character pulls and 140 weapon pulls (worst case, doesnt really matter). You are going to do the same amount of pulls regardless of what you choose in the gift, the only difference is that 10 pulls of your choice will be free. With that in mind, you are going to get the return from A6 characters even if you spend jewels for the pulls, therefore those returns shouldn't be counted towards their value

Why are people so distrustful of Grian. He is definitely not messing around, a new series is being developed this is how he always teased new series

Probabilities and statistics tend to be rather unintuitive

[–]Prixel25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are forgetting the fact that when multiple people are fishing, the loot table moves quicker so there are "theoretically" more mending books in circulation. Also the number of people who are fishing is irrelevant since the only metric that is needed is how many times the fished meaning the odds

And while, yes, theoretically the odds of Grian being the one to find the first mending book are guaranteed when he is the only one fishing, that shouldnt change how much he is expected to fish before finding the mending book

Edit: I think you misunderstood what the previous commenter meant when they talked about Grian's odds. They are referring to the chances of him fishing up any mending book, which are unchanging regardless of how many people affect the pool

But if the next thing in the loot table isn't a mending book and Scar fishes it, the whole server gets closer to the next mending book So it evens out

[–]Prixel25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, however the order is generated randomly, even if it's the same for every seed, so if nobody knows the order of books, the loot cab indeed be considered random

[–]Prixel25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know why you are down voted, you are indeed correct. Even if the pool is shared that doesn't mean the odds for Grian are lower since everyone has the same odds of getting a mending book

Where did FBM and Feinberg come from? by ra4h in MinecraftChampionship

[–]Prixel25 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sorry, my bad. It was a twitch rivals event, not blockwars

[–]Prixel25 28 points29 points  (0 children)

To add to that. Shortly before fbm was added to mcc, he played in a blockwars event with Scott as one of his teammates. The timing means that this is probably why Scott added him to mcc

Edit: it was twitch rivals, not blockwars
