It was the Diesel pilot ecr if anyone was wondering

It's so thrilling and fun❤️‍🔥. Not so much for the Citadel though 💔😭🙏🥀

BUFF CHUNGUS

If you are wondering I am the same person who posted on Disc don't report or sum 💔

If your at tier 6, yes. BUT if you have 3 mechs with 20E capacity I suggest you skip Solis.

If you have a solid 16E weapon from an ecr (for example I got Gemini 16 and Pod 16 from ecr) then DONT get it solis here. Wait till you get to tier 8 and buy there at 5* as Solis is a solid 24E mech.

If you have NO 20E mechs and in tier 6 then you can definitely go for this.

Don't gamble and if you're in an even lower tier, DONT get this, you have better things to do.

It's done.

In case you don't remember, I made a series of posts asking people to send screenshots of their implant shops, for a month. Now it's almost been another month since my last post (lol) I have finally finished the analysis! Let me refresh my Grade work:

S*: Most desirable implants. Ex: Hornet Venom DMG, Ability Cooldown, etc.

S: Implants that bring out a good weapon/mech's best performance. Ex: Volti tick rate, seeker bonus damage

A*: implants that are necessary for max efficiency in top sp and boost efficiency. Ex: BB dmg, CB dmg

A: good implants for good mechs/weapons. Ex: DW ability CD, revoker dmg

B*: good implants for non meta stuff. Ex: disruptor radius, Suppressor Reload

B: Good implants for mid/bad stuff. Ex: Solis CD, Viper Mag

C*: Implants for Bad mechs/weapons but still necessary to not make the mech suck. Ex: scorpion CD, Quad Rocket radius

F: mostly implants for epic implants

The Implants with the Most appearances and Least:

Most frequent:

1. Helix Rack Reload — 18
2. Versa DMG — 18
3. Fusion Cannon DMG — 18
4. Repeater Range — 17
5. Nomad Dash Distance — 17
6. Strike Rocket Reload — 17

Least frequent:

1. Bouncecritter Chance — 1
2. Bouncecritter Rebound — 2
3. Cryo Launcher Radius — 2
4. Bouncecritter Reload — 3
5. Blast RPG Mag — 0
6. Storm Rack Radius — 0
7. Podgun Reload — 0
8. Chaingun Reload — 0

Now, obviously this analysis is to see if the shop is fair or not.

So, is the shop actually fair?

Honestly? Yes and no.

Looking at all 310 screenshots, we found 1,860 Legendary implant appearances. And the interesting part is that the numbers don't really show the shop favouring or avoiding certain grades. The distribution we got is pretty close to what we'd expect if the game simply picked from the 194 Legendary implants at random.

So no, the data doesn't really support the idea that the game sees your good implants, knows what you're looking for, and then secretly lowers their chances to make you spend more A-Coins. Statistically, the shop looks fair.

But here's the problem: fair doesn't mean good. 💀

There are 194 Legendary implants in the pool, and a lot of them just aren't worth 3,100 A-Coins. Using B* as our cutoff for something that's actually worth buying, only 41.85% of the implants we saw were B* or better.

That means 58.15% of the time, you're getting something below the B* cutoff.

And that's why the shop feels so bad. It's probably not rigged, the pool is just insanely diluted. Even if every implant has completely fair odds, you're still going to scroll through a ton of stuff you don't want before finally seeing something worth spending your A-Coins on.

So I guess I was wrong about it being rigged! Or was I? You see in the database you can see that sum implants appear is clusters. That is, if an implant appear to someone, there seems to be multiple other people with the same implant in and around that day. This is interesting but nothing much to note.

The reason I started this whole series in the first was because I was feed up of seeing fuse mortar reload like 8 times in a week and complained as a post. It got taken down, and I started the waiting and tried to prove it with statistics. Well in that I got the SR reload I was waiting for and also witnessed its nerf lol.

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO PARTICIPATED! YOU helped me achieve my selfish dream of trying to prove something even though the result might have been obvious. I am sorry for putting it off for so long instead of updating as I said in 1 or 2 weeks but it took a whole month lol.

SPECIAL THANKS to u/Ill-information-828 u/Solera_MA And various others who have been sticking with me since Day 1!

Big Love to you ALL, THANK YOU 🥰🥰😊❤️❤️❤️

Tl;Dr : I analyzed the implant shop and it was mostly random! Who would have thought? Thank you for reading the post if you did! ❤️

Lacewing's about to be 10X more annoying 💔

(I gambled for Lacewing twice and did not get it🙏✌️✌️🙏🥀🥀🥀)

Hated em since Day 1. Both bots and players pissed me off so much 💔 they did so much dmg at rank 4 8E 😭🙏

(I did not get them 💔✌️)

You can buy so much of the things on this event for credits(CR6, CR10, PB6, PB10, Mimicker, and the BC10 and 12 were like free) so hypothetical you could buy allat, get 3 tokens and get CR12 and Lacewing, although it will take a ton of credits lmao

Guys this post will be like a box to leave your contributions like for the next week. I don't plan on posting any other post after this that isn't about the finished analysis.

I made this post because some of you wanted to continue.

As always, all I need you to do is send me a picture of your implant shop, the most recent picture. Going into the game right now and taking the picture would be most appreciated.

These pics will be used to determine whether the implant shop's choices are truly random or not.

Analysis is underway, as I am busy I still need a week or two to finish the thing.

Thank you for all of you who have contributed all these days, I am truly grateful for your support. ❤️🔥

I have a lot of credits so I have been thinking what to do. I can't rank up anything with my 1k acoins... all the 16E weapons are inconvenient to use... because I can only use one. I don't have any good 24E mech as well. The only weapon I am seriously considering is reaver to pair with Citadel. What to do?

(I have 2 leg implants for reaver but only a 4* epic pilot. Also I am open to any 10E weapon suggestion I.e CR10, H10, Reaver10+8(both have to be purchased for like 1.5 mil since I can't rank up Citadel rn. 2nd pick is an old one but only new mech is Citadel)

What about overdrivers? I have two leg implants for Reavers...I have revokers as well.

Hope there isn't any strings attached 😭🙏
