Clearly needs a 2nd attempt but with stat-selected amulets. For science ofcourse.

better than my attempts, bought the wrong ascended trinket

Ah yes, the predictions that cost me all my channel points, because whoever did them factored in "theoretical gold" from the karma spent on the gambling. thanks for reminding me of this.

I wish the boinking happened all 22 times. HOW HAVE YOU NOT YET LEARNED THAT GAMBLING BAD

@walidawad3122 3 года назад

The stat select advice might actually help, since in all the amulets you got 1-3 stabilising matrixes, but on the stat selected one you got 10

@ndasss6299 3 года назад

Wait really? What's the stats

@walidawad3122 3 года назад

He picked minstrel's but Idk if the actual stat themselves make a difference, I think it's just a matter of having them

@smcoool 3 года назад

Selecting stats helps on armors and weapons since u can get the inscription or insignia back when u salvage them but amulets and trinkets dont have insignias to begin with so it didnt matter :)

@walidawad3122 3 года назад

@@smcoool I thought so too but if you re-watch, you realise that for the first 21 he only got 1-3 matrixes. Never more. However the 22nd the only one that was altered in anyway was the only that strayed from the pattern of 1-3 matrixes, giving 10. Given that stat selection was the only new variable, I'd say it was most probably the cause

@smcoool 3 года назад

Thats just how RNG works though selecting stat didnt effect that

@jakejewkes2122 3 года назад

That thanos edit was pure gold..19 in fact lol 😂

@ghostymytoasty7007 3 года назад

This is actually depressing. I did the same exact thing a week ago. Spent 20k worth of eternal ice on ascended amulets, salvaged about 50 amulets in total. Didn't get anything. Just depression. Edit: You know what, watching you fail 22 times has inspired me to try again, if the odds are truly 1/20 than surely if I try 10 more times I'll get it. Edit2: NOPE STILL DIDN'T GET IT, DEPRESSION IS BACK. Also stat selecting as far as I could tell did not influence the drops. That said only tested it 10 times.

@GeneralAblon 3 года назад

Technically, you lost gold, cause you could have converted it to volatile magic>trophie shipments>gold, at a FAAAAR better rate probably.

@Dahkeus3 3 года назад

Yup, "opportunity cost", basically.

@JachAnen 3 года назад

Exactly what I was thinking. He had a sure way of converting it to a certain amount of gold and save his salvage kits, while they were free, he would have bought them if he didn't have them, so their cost should still count towards expense

@sleepypotato123 3 года назад

wait, how can I convert karma to volatile magic

@GeneralAblon 3 года назад

@@sleepypotato123 using ice shards, which you could get from bjora/strikes, you can spend the shards AND karma, to buy season 4 currencies, like kralkatite and the sort, and then convert it. Also works great for preparing for skyscale.

@ShadowkeeperTei 3 года назад

I think he got about 18 gold from the stabilising matrices (not factoring in the ascended salvage kits). He'd have gotten about 58 gold converting them to volatile magic from the same amount of ice shards, except he'd have only spent 295k karma.

@nizada290 3 года назад

I'm convinced that following "I'm doing for the memes" this man can do anything

@quiquaequod322 3 года назад

If the odds of getting a Salvaged Excellence truly are 5%, then the odds of getting at least one when salvaging 22 amulets is 1 - ( (1 - .05) ^ 22) [ ^ = "raise to the power of" ] which ends up to be about 68%. So your chances were about 2 out of 3. Tough break.

@asdasdasdasda8899 3 года назад

'We won wooo! ' seem painfully happy xD

@Dopeteddy 3 года назад

imaging using all these iceshards on LW4 currencies and using the Trophythingys to gain ez profit. But i like the gambling part of it :D would be funny if you would have gotten like 3 of those 400g things or sth :D

@derda8840 3 года назад

Is there an difference between salvaging 20 of these at once and for example salvaging 5 the 1st day 5 the 2nd 5 the 3rd and 5 the 4th? I mean is the chance higher to get this 400gold thingy when i salvage more in a short period of time? No, right? Because it always is a 5% chance. And that's why the magic number is 20.

@derda8840 3 года назад

That's exactly my luck in such things. Finally a guide i can rely on because it shows the truth xD

What I've seen as a better "Karma to Gold" is buying the Trade Cache's in the Crystal Desert. Unfortunately that eats up trade contracts... quite horribly, but it's consistent.

@Akronox 3 года назад

Where did you get the idea it is a 5% drop rate? Even if it was I think you need roughly double the amount amulets you used in the video to "guarantee" a drop.

@Rizon1985 2 года назад

But if you lose at gambling, you need to keep gambling. Because when you lost you were below the odds; on continued gambling it will mean your chances of winning or now much higher than before. I'm sure that's a valid way of thinking and there isn't a theory using actual probability math disproving it.

@Scyz0n 3 года назад

Would have gotten it on the 23rd attempt, guaranteed.

@derda8840 3 года назад

Btw i needed 39 salvages to get it. Stats selected. For sience!

@ghostymytoasty7007 3 года назад

@johnvonhorn2942 3 года назад

The chance of not getting any is 95% * 95% * 95% * ... 22 times = 0.95 ^ 22 = 32%. So the chance of getting one or more is 1 - 0.32 = 0.68 = 68%.

For anybody interested: If 5% chance to get Salvaged Excellence is indeed correct, and you salvage 22 ascended amulets: this is the distribution of how many times you would get "salvaged excellence": 0 Salvaged Excellence: 32.35% chance 1 Salvaged Excellence: 37.46% chance 2 Salvaged Excellence: 20.70% chance 3 Salvaged Excellence: 7.26% chance 4 Salvaged Excellence: 1.82% chance 5 Salvaged Excellence: 0.34% chance 6 Salvaged Excellence: 0.05% chance 7 Salvaged Excellence: 0.01% chance Congratulations Muk, you are in the bottom 32.35% today. For Nerds: Expected Value: 1.1 Standard deviation: 1.022 (Unreliable, we have low sample size) If you want to know how this was calculated: look up Binomial distribution on your favourite math site or Wikipedia

@neverstuckalone2689 3 года назад

I have salvaged hundreds and hundreds of ascended gear, mostly rings from fractal runs and never got any of the higher worth materials from it. I am probably the only person who did not finnish that achviement where you need to salvage ascended stuff to get higher end material. I just given up on it.
