Snake Medals III

Who would've guessed that bubble-popping shit would turn out to be the best event all month?

Can't wait for someone to do the math and figure out that the 1,000,000 points for the AAA will cost around 750 potions...

...and people will not pay more than 200 for it lol

On the upside, lots of SoE/+ and SoW/+. God knows, I need fodder, lol.

That's no upside for me... I'm still sitting on a ton I need to sell...

Wish I had a decent amount of ep to offer you, but I'm currently broke, lol. Otherwise I'd take them off your hands pdq, my new form won't level itself.

This cracks me up... just when you think it can't get any worse... Snake King Medals III!

I may try to get some of those colored stones again, but more than that, this is another one I'm sitting out.

I guess we can expect the next event to be one of the battle orb events with a BP30 cypher AA as the end-of-the-road prize.

Ugh, another awful event, with insulting rewards. I saw the 1000000 for the AAA and just started laughing. The best thing about this event is that it's just a week long! Not like the previous shit fests that have have dragged on, and on, and on...

No idea if it's really true, but I always think of the "Snake King" Event as a "filler" event. Just before they release changes or some new feature, for better or worse, they hold a Snake King Medals event.

Although I thought that last Faustian Trials had the stench of a snake king medals event without the slots. But at least Faustian had the extra Exp point per energy use.

Why can't they recycle that Repudiate Lab event? I think that was the one where you could choose a square in a grid and try to find an enemy summoner, instead of going in a strictly linear path. Something along those lines...

I liked that one... I'd at least like to give it another try.

They got rid of that format because people figured out the most efficient way to proceed was to NOT find the enemy summoner until ckearing all of the other squares. That's not the way they wanted us to play it

Oh good, the tranny's back...

Anyone get a sense yet of what the average multiplier is on the bonus spin? Unless it's huge and/or unless they start giving medal drop rate bonus time, the cost of the AAA is going to be ridiculous.

At the rate that I'm finding medals, the AAA will cost me 3750 ep, although perhaps my sample size is too small. At 581 energy per refill, with 3 ep spent on missions costing 16 and 17 energy, I found 800 medals. Extrapolating from this tiny sample size, I expect it to cost me 3750 ep. I could free up 86 more energy per refill, if I could only manage to save up 3000 jewels to get a reset.

That was with a prog??

Without a prog. However, a sufficiently high level player who has not leveled up by doing missions could probably get the AAA at a reasonable investment of 150-200 ep, with a prog.

I have a prog, the A+ (3x medals), 939 energy points, and currently 55k points, i spent 30 EP to get those so to get to the AAA can cost me somwhere arround 600 EP so the invest wont worth.
Now at the end of event i will se top ranked persons and again i will wonder why they prefer to spend EP for nothing, what reason...
Atleast this event give me crystals so i can do some divinity battles for free, i already got 40+ crystals

So Armitaage, the 150-200 EP spent that you mention is a dream
And forgot to mention, i have all missions completed   so i do it at 20 energy cost...

I was referring to someone who has a cost of 5 energy per tap, who has avoided leveling by doing missions. It's not as if those don't exist, although they're probably rare.

One other detail that I didn't mention in my initial post because at the time I had incomplete information about it. That 800 I got was including a few taps in bonus time, though I didn't have enough ep to drop during bonus time to truly take advantage of it. At the time I wasn't paying attention to the details of the bonus time, which is why I omitted it. Bonus time does increase the drop rate, and it does so for 5 minutes.

Ps: Mo, that last point about it costing you 20 per tap proves my point; someone who has hardly ever run missions and is at about 5 per tap can do it for 150-200 ep.

Ah so I did see correctly, I was tapping too fast but I swear I kept seeing raid crystals pop up, didn't even know they were

Yes, ive done the math, and using best case scenario estimates on drop rate, bonus spin, and how long to get the 30k from the prize board, it's over 400k energy points. Using more likely estimates of those parameters, and it's over 500k

Energy per tap doesnt come into play because medals and points are scaled to the energy you use

Yes and for Armitaage, another point, those who use 5 enery/tap they also get less medals than me, and second thing, those missions wont stay forever there at 5, they will progress fast and get to more expensive missions, i already was there so i know how they run

For you guys i will make a complete estimation after i reach 100k points with all EP spent and all details including all bonus times that occured randomly so you guys can do the math for each step ur interested in...now going to have some afternoon sleep

If we already know the AAA will cost at least 400-500, your decision to continue is odd since you just complained about the people who spend ep for nothing

Awesome! I hope they add the "jiggle" effect so whenever you spin the slots, she start's a-jigglin' LOL

Yes but it wont cost that much and we both know it, of course i would push if it was that much, but until then, i'm not rich like others to affrod to throw away on window 500 EP

I think we're having a language problem here. It will cost you at least 400-500 to get it in the event, not the marketplace afterwards. And like you said, since you don't have 500ep to throw away, why spend anything? Why bother going to 100k?

Yes but i did for the slot other prizes and souls and crystals and some xp, and i also got lucky in slots with point multiply and got at 326k points with 100 EP spent, i dont do all 1k bet rewards, after i get special prize i reset, so if i will still be lucky and slots pays me the same, i can get the AAA with 300 EP or less cost
