Take your time resetting until you get pleasureable RNG and log a good run in.
I have no idea what this means. What is 'resetting'? Are you talking about escaping all of the characters and re-entering the battle? I think escape is only 40% chance.
Also not sure what is meant by RNG in this context. As an afterthought, I can look at an outcome and say I got bad RNG, but how does a person know ahead of time if their RNG is 'pleasureable'?
Lol ok, so resetting means pressing the little button in the top left and retreating because RNG was bad (ex: you lose a toon because they got focused down, etc).
RNG (random number generator) is exactly what I just described. That would be how let's say in P2, the main tank hits JE with every attack it has, because it's random and happens to go that way. You don't like that, so you retreat completely and start the run over. This time, it will be different, because it's generating random numbers, it spreads attacks evenly amongst your whole squad. Consequently, you get about 5% in before you lose a toon, whereas the first time let's say you got to 2% before losing a toon. The 5% run is much better and couldn't have gone much better (based on your opinion), so you decide to keep that run and finish it off til all your toons are dead.
Basically it comes down to your perception of your capability. If you think you could be doing better, then rng is bad and you want to retry. If you're doing very well and can't imagine how it could go better, then you can assume you had good RNG.
