    Praetorium has a much better chance than the Imperial dude.

    But yeah, this is the umpteenth example of how damn annoying pure RNG is. Increase the success rate by teeny tiny increments each time. It's infuriating having people get something on try #1 and someone else on try #1493. As an MMO yes you've gotta have long term goals for people but this is insane.

    I had to stop playing TT because the grind was too much. Without 60 cards to form a proper deck there's no point playing. Collecting cards was meant to be fun but the insane drop rates have made it anything but and I've no time for that.

    which insane droprates? most people who put least effort into collecting them already got 60
    70 might be "hard" to achieve, but 60 arent

    tbqh the 'pure' rng in this game is utterly indefensible. there's already developer statements that they have projected time curves for even rng-based rewards in the game; they need to implement systems to prevent unnecessarily cruel deviations to meet their own design intents. there are dozens of ways to do this without breaking the unpredictability and 'excitement' of rng

    60 Is hard to achieve, as you need to beat RNG to obtain those 60. It was already obvious you are a troll, but trying to claim the droprates are good might be a bit too obvious. Please make more enjoyable troll comments.

    I see, you are one of these guys expecting to get everything without effort and who thinks that 20-30% droprates are insanely low

    RNG is just luck. No effort. With luck you have to do almost nothing. Without luck you can spend your whole life and still get nothing. And what got 20-30% droprates?

    I think they should implement a system where you can win cards from other players that player has, kind of like those viral achievement/title mechanics in other games. It'll give players a reason to play each other and open new avenues to obtaining cards...and the drop rate for cards is not 20%, its more like 5%....for chimera....from cutter's cry only.
