Skewed ratio of common heroes to uncommon in farming in past week

[Unicorn111]

I noticed that I seem to be getting a lot of common heroes (1*) during farming compared to uncommon (2*). I just noticed last week and started keeping track. I received 112 heroes farming last week and only 18 were uncommon. Before I go off on a rant about how SG is evil, I want to know if others are experiencing this or if it is just a run of bad luck.

112 heroes farming last week and only 18 were uncommon.

(112-18 )/ 112= 0.8392

is +12% ( base 0.75, see notes ) so normal RNG not even bad RNG

Note

emphasis added

@Gryphonknight

• All troop drops appear to be ~75% 1* / ~25% 2* Hero drops appear to be the same 75/25 mix.

@Gryphonknight

Hero drops are different–the rate appears to increase with WE across the map, although not quite as fast as WE increases if I recall correctly.

Thank you for the comment and for the link. I figured it was just RNG Doing its thing, but I figured I would ask for people who know more. Thanks again

It seems natural the something common would show up a lot more often than something uncommon.

True.

But.

Empires has lots of weird ratios.

1:1

@Gryphonknight

50%= 3*
50%= 2*

Flat 10%

@Gryphonknight

40% 1* other color= 0.4 x150 XP= 60 XP
40% 2* other color= 0.4 x390 XP= 156 XP
10% 1* same color= 0.1 x180 XP= 18 XP
10% 2* same color= 0.1 x468 XP= 46.8 XP
= 280.8 XP per finished hero in extra low cost training (RT11 or TC11)
