No worries, my friend. This game is known for a few things, and offering beginner’s luck certainly isn’t one of them. This would end up being another revenue for me to offload a chunk of food and recruits as long as I have dupe 5* as chip to use it with. Will be pretty important as I get closer to finishing up the researches and perhaps look to constantly put some more hams into other uses.
A few posts above I had an analysis done regarding the best way to receive a copy of all the vanillas. I’d still have to say it is TC20, and running multiples of them, not just because of odds, but time, which is also valuable commodity that cannot be overlooked.
HA10 - You get 52 chances a year at 4.75% - 5% chance of landing a S1 vanilla that you are looking for.
TC20 - Each one you put into running TC20, odds of pulling a specific 5* is 0.25% every 2 days. It’s approximately 182 chances a year for one building. With multiples, even more chances.
With the current setup and restrictions, TC20 is comparatively much easier to refill, have multiple locations, and can be queued, where as HA10 is harder in that aspect.
When you have relatively little to no vanilla 5*, each HA10 would likely bring someone new, but as you whittle down the numbers, like you are at 13/20, and in one month’s worth of time, struck out on getting someone unique, even though your next ones might strike gold, my thinking is that TC20 will still be the one to make the delivery despite the low odd each single session, just because of the flexibility it has.
The way the game released Season 4 so quickly after Season 3 (where 1 had a long hiatus before 2 and a smaller, albeit still a good few months before 3), made me think they are going to try to kick it into show me your money overdrive and already started putting season 5 in preparation. It’s sickening.
