Tracking number of fights per battlecrasher

[Snooj]

Some people have shared in comments and discord how many fights it’s taken them to get all the battlecrashers. Instead of scattering that data, let’s have a single thread for it. Excluding data from the first day since the drop rates have since changed as per Change to this week's Battlecrasher

Spreadsheet here. Screenshot below:

Short version: The first 9 battlecrashers are fast to get. The tenth hurts.

If anyone has additional data to share, comment below and I’ll add it and update this table. I’ll try to update it regularly.

I am no longer updating this. The numbers are stable enough.

Explore 1 (in case PvP appearance differs, as it does with Gnomes)

He appeared on battles 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 14, 30, 39, 43, and 82

Should subsequent days be edited to this post (or a new one)?

15.11.2021. - 1; 4; 6; 7; 8; 11; 16; 41; 53; 78;
16.11.2021. - 3; 11; 12; 15; 24; 26; 27; 28; 32; 36;

I will add different days to the same table. But, I am excluding yesterday since the drop rate changed as per

Change to this week's Battlecrasher

Hello Adventurers, We’ve been keeping an eye on King Heliodor’s appearance rate for the Kingdom Pass, as well as reviewing the feedback we’ve received. We’ve adjusted his chance slightly, to increase his chance to appear early on, and so the decreased chance is not as sharp as players defeat him. He will still cap out at 10x per day though.

Interesting distribution — I kept the chaff to better visualize the appearance rate.

I’m thinking it’s a pretty easy-ask for most people, so I’m pleased with the battlecrasher overall so far

EDIT to also say it’s all Explore, since I just realized you’re tracking that.

[Snooj]

Thanks everyone so far!

I changed some of the tables. Seems everyone but me was tracking which fight # each battle crasher appeared. I was tracking the number of fights between battlecrashers. So, the main big table now shows what everyone else has been doing, fight # each crasher appeared.

@AMT

in case PvP appearance differs, as it does with Gnomes

Hold on, PvP and explore have different rates?! I thought it was the same.

Well, I’ll track explore and PvP too for those that have that info.

[AMT]

@Snooj

Hold on, PvP and explore have different rates?!

I’ve always assumed that, since I see so few Gnomes while doing PvP (which I tend to do easily 20k points worth of weekly, peaking at 60k) when compared with the appearance rate during Nysha farming… But if it’s just my selective observation, please ignore the distinction

I got my 10 in these battles. Half were Explore 5/6 and other half were Explore 1.

10, 13, 16, 21, 23, 24, 25, 36, 37, 38

I seem to keep drawing the short stick on that 10th crasher: coincidence, or could it be related to me doing Explore1 with Ironhawk x3? (à la GaP rewards being affected by speed/timer)

@AMT I’ll Ironhawk now for mine — hold tight on the test!

Phew

That…
…took awhile longer than yesterday

[AMT]

Food for thought huh… what was your previous approach? Phoenicia?

[AMT]

Also: ditto on 6 gnomes found in the process, which seems above normal for non-vault weekend

[Magnusimus]

Last time was Explore 12 so as not to waste mythstones, mixed with PVP to get to Tier I (only Day 1).

Today was the only pure-Ironhawk session. Dunno if it’s actually significant or if my small amount of battles yesterday was the true outlier

[Snooj]

Updated screenshot in the post! Thank you everyone!

Averages have come down which is good.

Ughhhhh I hope not. I dont think so, though. I have been running Dust Devil with Ironhawk on explore 1 as well. Yesterday my numbers were like yours: took me 41 battles between ninth and tenth battlecrasher, and you 43. But today it took you less at only 22 battles. …I only needed one.

I admit I wasn’t entirely rushing though. I was idly playing so not super fast, but still quick enough.

[AMT]

Will look into how long the hunt for 10 crashers takes tmr, if I keep getting short-changed

Nov 17:
Recorded total battles to encounter battlecrashers, not battles in between each:

4, 9, 16, 21, 23, 28, 29, 34, 51, 56

Mix of explore 1, explore 12, and PvP. Didn’t count gnomes, but I saw several. Probably should, since they are (allegedly) rolled first, so a battle you got a gnome is not one that could have ever generated a battlecrasher. Not sure if they interfere in any other meaningful way (ie., would the best model to be deduct gnome encounters from eligible battlecrasher encounters when calculating totals or something else?).
