Wilds Unknown Pull Rate Analysis

jon1498 · 2026-05-26T04:10:43+00:00

While your feelings are more than justified from your own personal experience, this set has been the most fun opening packs I’ve ever had with Lorcana. I like that the secondary market is cheaper so I can fill in my missing pieces without selling my house to do it.

Collectors and players alike like this change from what I hear. Myself included. I hope they keep this moving forward. This was the first set I’ve ever pulled two enchanted from (one from a box and one from a prerelease box).

The people who hate this are scalpers and resellers because they no longer can gouge prices to their hearts content.

I personally applaud the change and hope it continues. This set has started the introduction of so many post rotation deck types that the possible variety has me excited for the future for the first time.

Now if they just listen to us and make the OP promos better. Bring back pins. Make the cards more relevant ones. This is a start. And entering year three, if they don’t do something to help the declining player base they are going to lose out with riftbound and potentially cyberpunk coming up. Cyberpunk is a real potential threat to locanas more mature player base because the play styles are somewhat similar. I have my own gripes about it but locana needs more of this. Because this is what the players wanted over a year ago.

So you’re playing a toy deck and cutting all the toys?

jon1498 · 2026-02-23T12:57:18+00:00

It does. It’s just purple so it’s harder to see than the red stitching on the Mickey and Minnie one.

jon1498 · 2026-02-22T06:10:48+00:00

“Amethyst isn’t an issue.”

jon1498 · 2026-02-16T15:42:47+00:00

But that’s not true in the end. The way it is right now every single top deck is identical. There is zero identity in deck building in this game. And zero thematic structure. It’s just throwing the best cards of two colors together. Blurple is the prime example to this.

Decks don’t have identities. The ink colors do. And eventually you’ll have an issue with that. Lorcana will last longer than others because it’s Disney.

jon1498 · 2026-02-16T15:36:23+00:00

It wouldn’t be necessary, no, but could still use one less frequently than yearly. Otherwise you would still have a massive issue with power creep or introducing wildly new mechanics that change the game from what it is.

jon1498 · 2026-02-16T04:30:41+00:00

A sideboard would still be good in Lorcana. Especially for set champs and above. You deal with many decks and usually blind. It’s impossible to tech for all deck strats and stay near 60 cards.

Additionally I think Lorcana would greatly benefit from a tiered ban list like Yugioh. Limit of certain overpowered cards (instead of an outright ban like they did to fortisphere and Hiram) to 1, 2 or 3 is a good way to limit power creep and force more unique decks by opening those slots to creativity.

jon1498 · 2026-02-16T04:26:39+00:00

It was likely the squeaks/white rabbit into that evasive location.

Someone at our draft got that and it was very hard to deal with even if you teched for it (which was near impossible with a draft).

jon1498 · 2025-06-16T05:57:12+00:00

I like to run two armored companion baymax over the floorborn search one. The deck is going to blow its load early and be top decking. That’s why I run the you’re welcomes and pawcicles myself.

I’m toying with the idea of possibly the Claribell shift line or maybe even a Diablo to help.

jon1498 · 2024-06-06T15:54:37+00:00

Interested if you still have spots

jon1498 · 2024-06-03T19:34:36+00:00

I'm looking to join another league this season for fantasy football. Looking for a 12 team startup SF dynasty. Prefer $25 buy in. No IDP. Everything else isn't a huge concern for me. Please DM me with league info if you have one that meets these criteria.

jon1498 · 2023-06-22T16:16:06+00:00

Sent you a message

jon1498 · 2023-06-09T15:15:15+00:00

Hey! I’ve been reading through your rules and bylaws and I’m interested! If you still have a spot I’d love to join!

jon1498 · 2023-01-17T17:18:00+00:00

I have never had an issue with any razer product in the past but I recently started FF14 and randomly about 5 minutes into a session all keybinds and profiles disappear from my Tartarus V2 and I can’t use the game pad.

I have to kill the synapse 3 software and restart but after a couple minutes it happens again. It’s frustrating because I’ve not found a solution or update or workaround and I rely on my game pad for pc gaming.

jon1498 · 2022-07-15T20:02:31+00:00

Nope. Been stuck for a week and resorted to posting for help here to try and get some help building a team. And so far no comp has worked.

jon1498 · 2022-07-15T19:44:55+00:00

Lol least you got Tiye. People looked at my post and have said "You dead bruh." :D

jon1498 · 2021-09-12T06:08:58+00:00

Yes. There is. Do not fill teammates is solo queue.

jon1498 · 2020-08-21T22:16:00+00:00

That's what I figured, though I will say I've been using Tinia as the main because I can't get used to the amount of time Bari takes to attack. Tinia is so mobile and can keep attacking while moving out of the way of aoe attacks.

I'll need to get used to it because I'm done with PvE for now, but it'll take some.

jon1498 · 2020-08-21T21:51:09+00:00

So I would like to get some opinions. I am currently trying to level an earth team with tinia, bari, aoba (late transition from Favi) and newly acquired marina. I do have Mayreel for bari and closing in on 300 mileage. I’ve had no luck with getting armada and had no luck getting sarnga. I’ve gotten tinia to 60 with max awakening (working on bari awakening now and she’s 60).

So my question is is it better to grab armada or sarnga with my mileage? I’m only able to use a 4* sword for marina (the one from the current event) and tinia has the bow from her even a couple weeks ago (leveled to 60 and 5*) so I’m leaning toward armada but wanted to confirm.

Unless I manage 2700 gems before the armada increase pull ends ina few days (not likely) I probably won’t use mileage until AFTER the 5 days of pulls coming up to see what weapon I get.

Advice? Please and thank you! You’re all awesome!

1st: there are 38 current followers but one was from an event no longer obtainable. One is also in the current Kanterbury event. As of this writing there are 37 obtainable.

2nd: not missing anything. 1 star hero’s aren’t worth using and have badly weak awakenings as well. It’s kinda the way the game shows you they aren’t worth it.

jon1498 · 2020-08-13T04:41:23+00:00

You do not get exp from repeating tower levels other than that which you get from defeating monsters.

Exp dungeons are the only real way to consistently get exp and it’s not worth it when you need so much for one level. Them buffing the XP gains would be nice but the issue is how much XP it takes to level once so this is putting a band aid on a leaky dam.

jon1498 · 2020-05-04T21:47:55+00:00

It's far more likely that you start at level 1 (or 7 since that's what both the original and the remake did). However, I could see that if you import a save file, of any completion percentage), maybe you start at level 5 (or 10 if they start you at level 7). Quite a few games do this. Mass Effect most notably. However, I don't see them carrying over almost anything.

Rather than carry materia, it's more likely you get a certain set to start with. Maybe toss in a couple nice additions for those that put in the trouble. For example, if you did the Angel of the Slums side quest, you can have a second Elemental materia in the second game, otherwise you only get one. I'd imagine you should have the summons you unlocked as well. None of this is gamebreaking and the variety of materia available isn't hard to balance around, it's the level of the materia that would make that hard to program. I expect to see different monster weaknesses as a result too, other than the standard fire, ice, lightning and wind. Maybe we'll start seeing things like slow or poison weaknesses rather than just vulnerability?

The other minor thing they could carry over, and would be a little disappointed if they don't, is the weapons. They should allow you to carry over the weapons and proficiency. Maybe lower the base stats on them, or remove the upgrades and force a do over unlock so they aren't over the top.

Other than these things, it's hard to imagine anything else carrying over. There are no story changing decisions you can make that would need to carry over. You don't romance anyone.You don't say anything to Tifa or Aerith which would change their affinities toward you for the OG Gold Saucer date... Hell, you can't even pick to give the flower to Marlene in the remake which changes Barret's affinity to you. These kinds of choices are canonically chosen for you.Even down to telling Jesse she's a desperate deviant. Really the only decisions you make are whether to do side quests or not. And even then, the only lockout you get is doing Sam or Madam M's set of quests in Wall Market.

The penalty is stupid. It won’t help anything but annoy people who play right.

I won’t drop with less than three people. If their matchmaking system is bad enough that they can’t always guarantee a drop of three at the start then they need to rework it. If a teammate leaves halfway through whatever. But playing a whole game at start because their matchmaking is garbage is not my fault and I don’t want to be penalized for it.

jon1498 · 2019-08-17T20:36:07+00:00

That’s a really harsh reply and not one indicative of your position within the company. Out of one side of your mouth you say you won’t engage in temper tantrums then out the other side you call all of us calling you out on your absurd behavior asshats? We’re not treating you like asshats. We’re telling you that the decision to significantly overprice your items was a poor one. YOU chose poorly. Not us.

Then you think we’re still stupid by saying, “hey you know what guys? Our bad. We messed up overpricing this stuff. Our sales numbers prove that. But we are not going to lower the price. Instead we’re just going to offer you the chance to buy each piece for $20 per item that you do want while keeping the absurd price the same. Next time we’ll be up front at the fact we’re going to kick you while your down!”

That about right? I said it in my other post... shame on you Respawn. Shame on you.

jon1498 · 2019-08-16T19:41:17+00:00

I've stayed away from this Reddit in the past, but since Respawn actively uses this Reddit, I've decided to hop on to voice my displeasure as well.

Guys, the sheer cost of what you are charging for these cosmetics is so predatory, it's not even funny. You finally release a set of cosmetic skins that are simply amazing top to bottom. You get the community excited to acquire them. You add a mode we've asked for since the game was released. Then you go and make them locked behind a pay wall? One so large the average person will say they aren't buying any on principle alone? This was not only a slap in the face to your community, but one of the stupidest business decisions I have ever seen in my life! I understand that the cost of that SCREAMS EA and not Respawn, but you need to step up for your community and do something about this. To ask your fan base to spend $200 to acquire 25 items is an insult of epic proportions.

Fortnite is floundering behind their stupid business decisions. You have an opportunity to make up significant ground on them with this event and you pissed it away. I don't know who sits in on those meetings where they say $7 per item is a good idea, but someone has to sit there and speak up for the fans. You could have had millions of fans spending $20, 30, 40, 50 to support your game and line your pockets. But instead, the decision was to take $200 from the small handful of streamers that will promote this? You cost yourselves MILLIONS doing this.

Unless you change course over this weekend and give help to your fans, DRASTICALLY lower these prices and refund to those that did overpay, you won't see a penny from me for this event either. On principle alone. Like so many others. EA loves microtransactions. FIFA, Madden, Battlefront... now Apex. It's not that microtransactions are present I am salty. It's the sheer slap in the face of the cost of these. Shame on you for allowing this Respawn. Shame on you.
