How many runs did it take you?

To get cards from primal HM runs? I'm on Ifrit #88 atm and no card yet. Got garudas in 3 though. The RNG system cant be this insane. lol

Lol all things rng in this game were like that at start uP. I filled 3 mahatma from ifrit alone getting his card, but got gila and Garuda first try, as well as blue dragon and demon wall cards

I never had good luck to begin with but 89 runs and nothing to show for it. Makes me kinda sad. lol Share your luck. I'm 28/30 on cards so close.

Trust me, you don't want my luck. Pre-buff, I had 600~ fates without an atma drop, my overall card drops are horrible (don't get me started on titan hm), post-buff Alex drops from fates are at an all time low, with a single alex dropping after 350 fates of gold. Rngesus does not favor me in the slightest, I'm too stubborn to quit trying to get the drop.

I just got all primals from NPCs that I could. Odin took me about 4 kills, mog HM took me one kill and Shiva took me 2 ex kills. The rest I got from NPCs.

Are you doing EX? While nobody can prove it, the general consensus is that EX's have waaaaay better drop rates.

Ran Shiva HM/EX, Ramuh EX, and Garuda HM with nothing. And then one Levi EX clear and I got a Levi card. It was nice, but hey, RNG, nuff said. I don't have enough time to farm them anyways, so I just trail roulette whatevs and if no card drops, I move on to something else that's not a grind hell. Sometimes by the time I go through my daily quests, it's already my time for bed.

Dang... Okay maybe my luck isnt so bad then. You can keep yours. I wont ever quit either. Not anytime soon anyway.

Now Noahlimits. You sir are lucky. I got titan card from NPC thats about it. I'd like to be able to have a full hand of 2 stars + 1 rare before I start with the triple triad struggle again. lol

It's not lucky, I just grinded those NPCs to death. I have 73/80 available cards.. everything except the 400k+ gp cards, shantoto, and the four tournament cards that are only available if you win the tournament. Probably spent 40+ hours grinding cards / dungeons for cards.

ex primals usually drop 1-2 cards per run, hm primals maybe 1 card in 5 runs or less

ultima and odin have the same droprate as ex primals

if you want to farm a card combine it with mount runs and just do some ex primals

You know, it must be our hair style and tattoo causing the problem because pre-buff, I did ~800 fates for a total of 4 stones. ^^
