Can someone calculate the probability of this??

    3x3x3= 0000000000000.3736255.72626.7666% chance. Am i smart now?

    You are smart enough to get 3×3×3 wrong.

    But I must admid, from a pure probability standpoint, (3%)^3 is correct. Even if it is completely irrelivant.

    Whenever someone says something like this, and on these forums it is often, I wonder how it could possibly be that the calculated odds of something happening three times in a row is irrelevant to the question of what the odds are of something happening three times in a row. What *is* relevant to the question of what the odds are of something happening three times in a row, if not that?

    Very 1st reply to OP was indeed correct, although immediate reply back from OP insisted that it can’t be. I assume since no additional followup that OP now realizes those odds are indeed right.

    Other debate between Giulia and Thicco all comes down to misunderstanding when said (3 times 3%). Intended it to imply (3% multiplied 3 times with ITSELF) but just didn’t say it technically in those words, NOT that the more consecutive 4*’s in a row you do the better the odds would have been to have pulled them like that.
    So that is where the “even if it is completely irrelevant” came in (talking about his misunderstood semantics).
    He wasn’t saying that the correct (3%)^3 is irrelevant.

    PHCs have a 3% drop rate for 4*s

    That means to get 1 is a 3/100 chance.
    To get 2 is 3/100 x 3/100.
    To get 3 is 3/100 x 3/100 x 3/100 which is 27/1000000 chance or 0.000027

    Sorry but you're wrong ... I get what you did there but getting consecutive 4*s has low probability on it's own .... And getting 3 consecutive 4*s ... Well 🤷🏻‍♂️ .... I am sure it's lower than what you stated.
    Or am i wrong? 😂😂 I am dumb ... I don't know 🤦🏻‍♂️
    You are wrong. Each crystal has the same chance, it does not change each crystal.

    What did you do in-between 45s to get 9 units?

    My man here asking the REAL questions

    No, no you're not.

    I love this forum. I really do. Where else could you get a multi-page thread with people trying to teach other people how to multiply fractions? It's like Yahoo answers for fourth graders. If you don't know how to calculate probabilities, go check out BrainPop. It will save you a lot of money and confusion in this game (and be honest, the game is a slot machine).

    Opened arena crystals before opening the PMCs .... The units sometimes load after a few seconds ... Like i got 45 units but just 36 got added and got 9 laters when game refreshed

    So.. if you know that he's wrong.. you must know how to make the calculation yourself.. so why don't you do that?

    Who cares about all this math talk, someone in the middle of all this answered it. What hasn't been answered is this... inquiring minds wants to know.

    Each crystal has a 3% chance of getting a four star regardless.

    However, before opening any crystals the probability of popping three four stars simultaneously would be 27/1000000.

    If you popped two four stars then looked at your new probability it would be a 3% chance for your next crystal to be a four star because the other two four stars are now given.


    Their is a much greater probability that the guy that got these crystals is pretty happy.

    I did lol ... I opened arena Crystals before that ... I don't know if it's just me but almost every resources takes time to load on my phone ... Like i can get 100k gold and it'll show only 80k until the next refresh/interface change

    Tnx to this post. I can see lots of mathematician here. My mom will be proud if she knows this.
