TOPIC: New Magnetic Wand for token draws? Cool!

Assuming that mix for 200 pulls and perfect distribution (two very large ifs) my pulls would be

50 uncommons
70 rares
70 Trophies
5 minor transmutes
2 URs
1 Relic
1 5K bar
1 10K bar

I would be a very happy camper with that outcome.

I could save 5 sets towards a 3 or 4c and still make 5 fleeces.

Then again, i probably used up my quota of luck for several years with my pulls at WYC.

If there are that many monster ingredient tokens, perhaps we'll have one or two transmuted tokens again which actually require them next year instead of having them be an optional ingredient. I thought that added great value to the Monster Ingredient Tokens.

That would be a fine way of dealing with it.

I'm also looking at about 200 pulls and would be ecstatic if I can hit the aforementioned numbers. It would be my best Gen Con other than that one unusual year. Last year I pulled my first ever UR out of the Treasure Box with about 150 pulls. Still have yet to see a 5K or 10K bar.

I wonder where dragonorbs fall in the numbers.

I'm not sure what the problem is that we're trying to solve. As an optional ingredient, trophy prices are propped up at 300gp. They fluctuate but seem relatively stable, except for the Gertz shortage.

Last year monster trophies seemed to run about 20%. My percentage was about 18. I heard others say theirs was around 15. 20 seemed a consensus estimate. If so, my hypothetical 200 plus would yield about 30 more trophies or just over 4 sets, assuming even distribution. At the same time the lower percentage of uncommons means fewer tokens towards Elven bismuth and oil of enchantment. A potential negative impact on the balance of recipe ingredients.

My percentage last year was around 15%. I'm glad it's a lot higher this year!

My prediction: 0%

Has a Wish Ring ever been in the treasure box?

Jeff said a few would find there way into boxes.

IIRC there used to be 2 25k bars in the treasure mix. I saw one pulled on a Team Synergy run.

Maybe that will be the number of orbs.

I doubt there will be any orbs in the boxes.
