There’s been so much talk recently about RNG in the traitstone farming process lately. I have really loved to see it.
The reason I say that is because this recent discussion meshes well with what I have coincidentally been working on, which is building teams then farming my silly arse off in various kingdom to see what soul / traitstones I can get in a 20 minute period.
So what I’m thinking is if anybody has a particular team they’d like tested (provided I have it reasonably built up), let me know the build and I’ll run a 20 minute test for you then post the results (and video).
I figure if I’m doing it for myself anyhow, I might as well satisfy the curiosity of other people who have been genuinely wondering if they have been snake-bit by RNGesus.
Let me know what you think, suggest your teams, kingdoms, etc. And if you have any notions about how I can do this work in an efficient and scientifically valid way, I’d appreciate hearing your thoughts as well.
An interesting idea, but I do see one problem. Seeing as how different teams take different amounts of time to complete any given battle, and that 20 minutes is not very long, I would suggest instead going a certain number of battles with each team, which would make the test a little more statistic. Even posting how long it took to do said battles. Otherwise, the results of traitstones will be skewed.
Yeah that’s what I meant. 20 minutes is not long at all. That’s how many battles on average 5 or 6, maybe 10 at the highest. How many traitstones are expecting to receive from that?
You don’t have to prove anything to me. I didn’t set out to discredit you. I’ve rather enjoyed your videos and think you should keep it up. All I’m saying is if you only spend 20 minutes like most people will, then get bummed out when they don’t strike it rich, doesn’t prove anything. You could do it for different time periods and see if the rewards change any for you. Start with 20, then go up. Just an idea.
An hour or two would be better, but still not representative. What it can speak to more, however, is how different personal experience versus expectation can be. Its more of a “how lucky am I” as opposed to “how rare is x”. So long as you are clear about that, it is fine. Just trying to stop potential severely skewed data as being taken as “the way things are” for less informed members of our player base.
