Or is it 4? or 5? do people really believe this? If it is really Random Number Generating there cant be a "secrete" am i wrong. There has to be a formula for pulling the data to receive your reward it shouldnt change due to the amount. If players wanna do it for their own good thats fine but dont claim its the best and only way to do it

it is the best way to do it, but not because you'll get more shards/gear that way ;)

2 at a time works best for me. And less frusterating then going all in and getting nothing Lol. But whatever floats your boat, I change it up sometimes to 3 or whatever. Really doesnt matter RNGesus does what it wants ;)

Generating three 'random' numbers twice is just as 'random' as generating two 'random' numbers thrice.And yes, I believe CG when they state that they use the same algorithm in both cases.

Simming in multiples of 6 is your overall best odds!

Just do them all at once. It's all the same. Just confirmation bias mixed with good old fashioned superstition.

Every time I do them all at once I get nothing. I always do a few at a time now. Maybe that changes nothing but I'm not instantly pissed off this way at least.

i get more mad when i need 1 shard or gear and it takes me doing 3 at once 4 times.

my superstition is when i only needed 1 more piece of gear or shard and it took my like a total of 15 pulls to get the one. i swear it always screws u when ur close lol

I always sim the max of however many need to be simmed. I get amazing pulls, and terrible ones just the same. Since it makes no difference to the drop rates I don't want to waste even a fraction of a second on superstitious nonsense. Especially when I could waste that time looking blankly at my roster, and trying to figure who to gear next.
