TH activation rumour

[Delvish]

Soloing in Dyna every day on THF I noticed its way more difficult to proc TH 8 from TH7 than it is to proc TH 4 from TH3. TH4 from TH3 happens in the first few attack rounds on THF but if I pull with all my TH gear on i very rarely see an upgrade from TH7 to TH8. I think the higher the TH is, the lower the chance of upgrading.

It could've been something of a random occurance, but my most successful day in Dynamis was the day before Conquest tally when I had my TH gloves in for upgrading. Down to only TH on the boots, I got more Forgottens and over-all currency during that one day of TH4 in Dynamis than I have any time since then as I move up to TH6.

Also I have a rumor to contribute. Certain TH levels have a negative effect. Seriously, whenever I hit TH8 in Dynamis even with a stagger, I typically receive 1 piece of currency.

Was farming HQ organs in sea last night; every TH5+ gave no drops; went 18 mobs straight without a drop of any kind (to include crystals <.<)

I'm sure I speculated on something similar to this when they first changed TH. I said it seemed to be like COR rolls, with more power from certain levels of TH, but not scaling as you would expect. Devs did post their testing of TH9 vs TH10 thugh and 10 was better than 9, they said. But that doesn't necessarily mean that 8 is better than 7 ;p

Forgive me if it might drift off topic a tad, but i heard that th is simular to dropping marbles into a spinning roulette table, if the table has ie. 10 slots and slot #6 is ,lets just say a O. Bronze piece, th 1-12 would equal to additional marbles added to the table respectively to score slot #6..... the other idea (and probably more favored) i hear is that th simply increases drop % XD. Can someone pls clear that for me? Other than that it sounds like an added level of th should always increase chances theorectically right?

The first scenario you described is simply a reroll, which is the currently accepted behavior of TH1 and TH2 (i.e. TH1 gives one extra chance (or marble in your scenario) to get the drop, TH2 gives two extra chances). However, higher tier TH values don't follow the same formula, and seem to give a static increase in drop rate. The exact behavior is still not understood, but every rumor about TH decreasing for certain values is completely ridiculous in my eyes and I wouldn't pay it any attention at all.

Oh, I agree, but sometimes enough coincidences do make you think
