let the disagreeing begin . but lessening the chances of the top prize in the crystal an putting tht percemtage as a even lesser chamce to obtain a nexes is ridicules .. oh ittll be awesome for the 1 in 1000 tht get one every now an thn . but it shouldnt come out of the small chance tht is there add it in take the 0.2 percemt chamce off the 3* end ypu cant use then in act 6 . . anyways . let the yae sayers destroy this opinion now ..

You just now have the chance at a nexus version of any of those baked into the chance. It's not a bad change, but not exactly a good one either.
I never complain about this game but this feel like giving 1 more spit to beggar
But I’m definitely curious how it’s gonna play out
I think it's either 0.8% chance for a 6* OR 0.2% chance for a nexus.
I don't think you can add them together and say it's a 1% chance to get either.
Think of it as a chance within a chance.
You have a 1% chance to pull a 6*. Within that, you have a 20% chance that “winning” the 6* will yield a Nexus crystal with an 80% chance of it being a basic 6*.
Consider a coin flip. There's a 50% chance of heads, 50% chance of tails. The odds of getting either a head or a tail is 100%, 50% + 50%. Of course. But why can you add them? Because the odds of getting heads is not completely independent of the odds of getting tails. Instead, they are mutually exclusive: you can only get heads or tails but not both. So there are only two possibilities: Heads or Tails.
But suppose you were to apply to college, and you applied to two colleges A and B. And suppose you were told you had a 50% chance to be accepted to A, and also a 50% chance to be accepted to B. Does that mean your odds of being accepted to college are 100%, 50 + 50%? No, because those are not mutually exclusive events. There are four possibilities: you get accepted to A, you get accepted to B, you get accepted to both, you get accepted to neither. Adding the two double counts some of the possibilities. Your 50% chance to be accepted into A "includes" some of the chance to get accepted into B, because the chance to get accepted into A but not B, plus the chance to get accepted to A and B, must be 50% (that's the odds of getting into A at all).
In this case, the odds are mutually exclusive. There's no chance of getting a 6* basic AND also a 6* Nexus. So the total odds of getting either is the sum of both.
