I cannot seem to get any gold keys to drop; the only ones I ever get are from the one-per-day eGachas. :(
I don't have data to prove it, but I will bet that the drop rate is variable. I'm guessing it's probably like the rate of chance time on extra stage. It probably fluctuates according to some set schedule that we are not privy to as opposed to being a flat x% rate all day. This would help explain why she tends to appear in 'clumps.' I've noticed other people say that they got her back to back, too. We can know as much about the base percentages as possible, but I'll bet almost anything that everything is variable according to a master schedule.Quote:

Sometimes they come one after another, so i complete teh first two stages of Dailies consequently, while at the other times i can't get a winnig roll even spending my full 300 Sta even on GHQ (at least, the ones i need atm to complete the last mission i want). Or i can get like 3 SR cards on Ngacha while doing N or R cards Daily mission, but as soon as i subscribe to "Get 1 SR girl" Daily Mission they just stop spawning. Also, today ive spent like 150 Ngacha tickets to finally get the new N slayer before starting to spend my Stamina that i've accumulated while i was sleeping. Almost the same shit Ngacha was doing on me te last time when i've tried to get the 1st phase N Slayer, before starting to roll the gambit slot machine. So yeah, looks like it's not a constant chance % n everything, but some hidden schedule, just like the Sunday Rotation Schedule on GHQ.
I just got one again in the second part of the event. Keep in mind that if you max her to level 100, she will no longer appear in the boxes (source: Nutaku response to a ticket, see previous page of this thread).Quote:

HOWEVER, Nutaku is very unprofessional and it wouldn't surprise me if they MANUALLY, silently changed event items drop rate from time to time.
so much paranoia
I still can't believe that the rate is flat and constant. I get that RNGs can give you streaks by complete chance, but I think the game would be more fun if there were periodic changes in rates. If you play enough, you'll have streaks of great luck, and you'll have streaks of poor luck. My theory explains this better. And it also keeps you coming back. You want to get back to the better luck you had before. It's not that hard to code something that makes rates fluctuate up or down for a couple minutes every X minutes. If players happen to be on at that moment, BAM, we all have good luck.Quote:

As for the rate increasing, that still doesn't change my theory. If the rate is too low across the board, you bump the 'base' rates. But you still could have the periodic fluctuation throughout the day or throughout the hour that lead to changes in success rates.
Well, i'm playing online games for like 10 years already, and offline games for, like 20 years, so i might say this looks too suspicious to be plain random, so i could notice some tendencies here. if the chances were constant, i either would get good?bad luck all the time, or don't get those good/bad luck streaks at certain times. in fact, i wouldn't get "streaks" at all. And if i did - that would be an outstanding event, and happened, maybe, once or twice (and be a great luck, no matter, if it is a "good luck" streak, or "bad luck" streak) not every few days. Random things are random - they give you random stuff at random rates. Not depending on what you do, and what are the conditions (missions you are subscribed to, in this case). And streaks in general are only possible, if the win chance % is pretty high (which is definately not a typical case for lottery of any sort)Quote:

Exactly. Just because it's not published doesn't mean it's not there. It also doesn't have to be in two hour intervals. There's most definitely something in the background that takes 'base' rates and multiplies them against some external factor.Quote:
