I'm just curious what should actually happen? is it if i spent 1x credit, OR spend 10x credit, there's an equal chance that the mod will upgrade the entire level?if that's the case then shouldn't we all be just pressing 1x so we're rolling the dice more often? personally i do not recall ever seeing some phenomena where i pressed spend and somehow thought my mod upgraded way more than i thought it would...so now during mod appreciation weekend, the chance is improved, from what to what? so far the baseline seems nonexistent so anything would be an improvement?

This sounds like how Mods initially worked, when it cost 50% as much to level a Mod. Kind of bad faith to revert this in the first patch (with the platitude that it would make leveling mods more consistent) and then add it back as a temporary event.

Just spend those 350k credits you were just graciously gifted and don't ask any questions. It's working as intended.

in a nutshell, it cost a lot less than normal to level mods atm

anyone test to see if it makes a difference to repeatedly press upgrade 10 times, or press upgrade (x10) once?

did you press the x10 option? or just press the regular upgrade option for like, way more times?

what's instant chance at upgrading mods?

its certainly cheaper to max a mod. I did it with x10 upgrades. around 350k to lvl a mk5 mod from 1 to 15.

I love how their solution to everything is to create a reason to entice everyone to buy crystals over the weekend and coincidentally have a sale on crystals at the same time.

it cost me 370k to take two 5* mods from level 12 to level 15, with a couple of RNG upgrade boosts occurring. i tried both single upgrades and the x10.

it just highlights what a credit sink mods are and what little return we get.

i won't be farming or spending any more credits on them.

I've tried it both ways and I've gotten lucky upgrades on both. What will happen is a lucky pull on a 10x will go straight to the upgrade and past it into the next. I was able to get two lucky pulls and go from 13 to 15 on a circle mod.

is there some clear indication that a lucky roll has occurred?
