[Merry Christmas] 5+ Star Gacha Ticket Plus Thread

[sniddy]

I see a little of both sides, leaving it so upto RNG was kinda a dickish move

But yeh a free 5* was nice, especially if you don't have many - chance of a 6* stung a little when you don't get it but....hey still 5* for free....

Some people are just a little too salty for my taste in this thread

Well, you know this thread has high value if it even got their attention

[Rupturez]

I've read whole thread after reading on 4chan there is some shitstorm here... and wow.
People are angry that their guaranteed 5 star ticket gave em 5 star? I would understand if by magic it gave you 2 star or something. Granted some got a dupe (be it 5 or 6 star one) but you still can use it to level up equipment (or if you are lucky skill) slot. Yes it blows to get a dupe, but you've paid nothing for it and you've spent no collected FG resources to get it. I know "grass is greener..." and all that nonsense but some of you are taking it way too far

It's not a guaranteed 5* ticket its a 50/50 ticket and that is part of the problem. Do you think salt would have happened if it was a 100% 5* ticket? No. It would not have, people getting a dupe would shrug it off since everyone got a gold. Hell they would even be happy. But now we leave a present up to the RNG gods and heres where it goes wrong, you see there are a lot of long-term players who played since release or a couple of weeks after it, those said players might have even bought some gems (or not if total f2p) before guaranteed deals became a thing, but never pulled a rainbow. Not a single time in 7 months. They have a lot of golds to bolster their ranks, more golds than they might even care for. You wouldn't know the feeling, you have pulled atleast 3 rainbows though sheer luck. The "veterans" however now see so many people with maybe not even a quarter of their total play time pull rainbows left right and center. To further fuel their frustration they pull a dupe gold.

Now I fully know that it is WRONG to be angry, I can't help but FEEL this way and curse my eternal bad luck. I am HAPPY for the people that got something good but still feel MISERABLE myself about the entire present and think it was INCREDIBLY DUMB TO MAKE IT RNG.

I'm not telling you to agree with me, hell I even know myself that I should be grateful. I just can't feel grateful because of the always and forever bad rng luck. I'm only asking for people to at least understand that much. In a couple of days we will shrug it off, like we have been doing for 7 months but at least understand that we feel stabbed right now!

I totally agree with this, the tickets are RNG enough, making it more RNG with rainbow vs gold tickets is a dick move.

Do you think salt would have happened if it was a 100% 5* ticket? No. It would not have, people getting a dupe would shrug it off since everyone got a gold.

I'm 100% positive that there would still be salt.

Would it have been any better for you if the ticket was 94% gold and 6% rainbow or whatever, like how it normally is in DMM? I know a lot less people would be happy with their rolls if that were the case, but if we're gonna go with this "everyone or no one" mentality, surely worse rates is the answer, right?

Slight correction, I took another look.

DMM 4*+ tickets have a 1.5% chance of giving rainbows.
5*+ tickets have a 7.5% chance of giving rainbows.

We got a FIFTY FUCKING PERCENT chance and people still aren't happy about that.

If you don't understand my sentiment now you never will. Never once did I state that lower rates was the anwser you just missed my point completely.
We have different opinions and I respect that, I'm not going to make an effort to convince any people, I already said it in my previous post, I don't ask for people to agree with me.

Your point was you have no point. You're just angry that some people are luckier than others, even with 50/50 odds and veteran status.

There's no solution to that without pissing off someone else instead. You're just ranting for the sake of ranting.

[DMAsh]

I myself wouldn't be salty if I got a new FK out of this ticket. But no, it had to give me another dupe Oncidium, for the third time in a row.

I ONLY HAVE 3 FLOWER KNIGHTS OUT OF THE WHOLE FUCKING POOL! HOW IS IT I KEEP GETTING DUPES OF THE SAME ONE!?

You're partly right and partly wrong. My point was that RNG in a present is a bad idea.
But i'm growing really fucking tired of this so I'm leaving now for christmas eve. I wish everyone a happy christmas.

I think this thread should be renamed "Merry RNGmas", because that's quite literally what it is.
On a side note, my roll was Iris...
Useful Battle Ability?: No
Waifu pick?: No
New Girl?: Yes

...Well that's one good thing out of three. Still would've preferred something better, like a 6* (which has a 100x increase in chance from normal gacha if the ticket odds are accurate), or, as people have been saying they SHOULD'VE done, pick-your-own 5*.

Also, to the people saying we have no right to complain, you're right.
But we'll complain anyways.
