    That's not uncommon, really.

    At least you duped one. Took me 18 5*s before I got a dupe.

    I think I had 15 or so before I even had 4 different classes and even then it was 1 champ in 3 of those classes.

    I think my first 6 or so 5* were cosmic.
  • DRTODRTO Member Posts: 1,691 ★★★★★
    My last like 6 5* pulls have all been mutant, it happens.

    Newer players always seem to get caught up on the classes. You shouldn't be worried about that man, you should be worried about bad champs.

    My main squad always has two mystics on it, sometimes two mutants. Class isn't a be-all-end-all for your team.

    And you shouldn't expect to have usuable 5*s so early either. I've opened 10 crystals and only use one of them..

    Sitting here with 22 5* and not one cosmic..although looking at your selection i'd rather none sorry to say.

    I love posts about RNG and people that don't have a clue what RNG means.
  • SoulreaverasSoulreaveras Member Posts: 63 ★
    Last time I checked RNG meant Random Numbers Generator. So yes I know what it means.

    The RNG is suspect at best. Sorry man it comes around if you stick with it lol.

    They rework the RNG every time the add a new champ to a crystal. 👍
  • NikskiniNikskini Member Posts: 237 ★
    My first 3 5* pulls were mystic magik,iron fist and then again got magik but then again that's not bad at all

    Just roll with the punches buddy, just because you pop 3 crystals doesn’t mean you’re guaranteed a god tier. I feel your pain but there is nothing wrong with the RNG. It provides balance to this game

    how exactly one having bad champs and other having good ones will provide balance? there is no real balance in the game. rng supposed to make you want to open crystals, basically like gambling

    Which is why it provides balance. You ever played a mobile game where you can literally spend your way to the top in a matter of months? Not much fun being F2P. This sort of rng and champ pool means you aren’t guaranteed a thing even if you spend. I had terrible rng for like my first 10 5*. Last 2 months all I seem to pull is god tiers, it’s just the way it works.

    Have you ever played a game where you can literally spend your way to the top in a matter of months? Yeah not much fun. You could be a whale here and pop 10 crystals and not be happy with 1 pull. RNG keeps this on an even keel for the most part because you’re not guaranteed a damn thing.
    My first 10 5* were complete trash, my last 10 have basically been god tier. It’s just the way it goes

    but you can still spend your way to the top here as well - just spend more. balance for me is when there are no champs that are better then some other champ in any situation. like why would I take dpxf over domino in any fight? absence of such fight means no balance

    Rng is rigged i open a 2nd acct on saturday . My 1st 2 premium crystals i pulled a 2 ---3 star chanps corvus and sentinel, My main account i just got a corvus and dont have a sentinel. The alliance i join has 3 players level 17--- 2 of the 3 have (2) 4 star champs from the premium crystal
  • godsquad891godsquad891 Member Posts: 779 ★★
    have well over 30 champs still no mutant or mystic dupes
  • rcm2017rcm2017 Member Posts: 677 ★★★
    But i dont understand why rng is used across 3-5* champs. Example I buy a deal to pull a 5* to get a 5* aegon and i pull a 3* KK, thats just absurd because I paid for a 5* champ. I can live with that i paid assuming or believing I will get a good 5* and I get a 5* KK. And the 5* drop rates are just too bad to be even discussed when they use a pool of 3-5* champs in a deal.

    Just my 2 cents*

    It’s not that I didn’t get a god tier, or he’ll even a mid-tier. It’s the fact that I got a 4th Cosmic. I’m only level 42. Just this week got my first 2 R5 4*’s (void and Magik, both awakened). HAPPY with those pulls. My 3rd will be my awakened Hyperion when I finally get my 3rd cosmic class cat.
    My issue is with Diversity, or lack there of. Having nothing but 5 * Cosmic drops, means little to no progression via ranking. I might be able to rank 1 of them sometime. But with all the class cats you get (which I seem to pull more skill and science types) I’ll hardly ever have the resources to utilize if all I get is cosmic.
    My main concern is with the lack of diversity.
    And you need diversity in your roster to really be able to progress at a decent rate.

    You are level 42 with 3 5*. You don't need diversity right now.

    I don't typically agree with @Demonzfyre but here he's totally correct.

    I don't even know if I had a bloody 4 star at Lvl 42, and 5 stars didn't exist at all for sure then.

    New players like the OP will never know what it was like for those that have been around since the beginning. You can progress so fast now that you aren't "ready" for the reality that is "you can't always get what you want". Accept the fact that every crystal you open will likely end in disappointment. Then when you DO get a god tier pull, you are that much more excited.

    To @Soulreaveras

    While frustrating, your pulls aren’t that strange. I had a single Skill 5* champion for almost a year and a half. There may be problems inherent in Kabam’s version of pRNG, but your results aren’t an example of such problems. You have champs that many of us as veterans would have paid dearly for at your level.

    To (some of) the other folks on this thread:

    Ease up a little. The guy is L42 and, while he may have come on a little too strong, there’s really no need to be asinine or to editorialize.
