    That's a lot of math, but there is a shorter version. When planning to get your 5-star, always expect to spend around 160 wishes to do it (counting from the last even 5-star). Yes, the video implies you can get it sooner, but you shouldn't be relying on that. IF you get it sooner, then just consider the remainder a deposit for your future pulls. That way you will make it easier for yourself and less frustrating if you miss an early 5-star.

    Early pity is a really sore point for me, as someone who constantly hits soft pity I have only gotten 2 earlies and that was a 5050 loss and a skyward blade on standard... meanwhile people around me are getting 5 stars at 4 pity double 5 stars e.t.c, although I do feel grateful for the number of 5050s I win, but a 35% chance of an early is way bigger than I thought!

    • @nyuuh
      @nyuuh ปีที่แล้ว +7

      IN terms of budget in total, yeah that would make a big difference, and i think (no calc done) is that even if the do lose the 50-50 early on and get to pity for the guaranteed, it's more likely better value since they got around 2 5 stars in 80-100 pulls intead of winning but doing it at 77 pulls. accumulatively, it matters - especially when you also use standard characters like mona, jean, and even more so with diluc (when reaching c4 he has a good powerbump) or Keqing. ah let's not discuss a certain C6 of reviving everyone... :)

    • @Vidmiloo
      @Vidmiloo  ปีที่แล้ว +130

      Keep in mind that averages do not directly lead to results. It's more likely you start off with unlucky streaks of repeatedly hitting soft pity before you get lucky. In Genshin, this feeling is made even worse, since pity leaves you with less wishes, giving less immediate chances to balance out your rates with better luck.
      Lucky streaks are probabilistically inevitable, but nothing dictates when exactly they'll occur, other than bad luck pushing them further away.
      Hopefully your lucky streak comes soon :)

      I really don't think there is really a flat 35% chance. it more like 30%. like soft pity, the pre pity seem to tilt toward early pull (0-30 yield more gold than 40-70). since the math we care about is the average pull, we ain't evaluating the likelihood of them but their weight in the probablility so 35% might be it probabilty weight than how likely you are to get early... that or i am very unluckly because i really don't believe 1/3 pull are early.

    I appreciate your pointing out that characters and weapons can be bought with Starglitter. I think a lot of players don't recognize that by holding onto Starglitter, they can guarantee that they get certain 4 star characters or get Blackcliff weapons which are sometimes the best F2P weapons for dps characters rather than pulling another 7 copies of Thrilling Tales.

    • @Pingu2010
      @Pingu2010 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +14

      Regarding weapons, the blackcliff series rarely outperform other F2P options - and if they do (which is "rarely" for better accuracy than "sometimes"), it's by a margin so small spending the starglitter isn't worth it, unless that allows you to free up a weapon for another character you plan to use simultaneously. It mostly has to do with the passive being pretty meh except against horde of weaker enemies against which it's "okay" - but it still doesn't provide much value because the enemies are squishy anyways.
      In short, there's a reason theorycrafters advise against spending starglitter on weapons. It's not that they're bad, because they can be good - it's just that they're often outclassed by other options as I said previously. If someone wants to purchase them, that's absolutely fine. But I just wanted to mention that for future readers.

I still almost couldn't bring myself to finish it when I heard the expected number for when you get a 5* LMAO (While I kinda dropped it this year, I played Genshin almost since launch and I got a total of ONE (1) character before 80-something. I also only ever won two 50/50s so I guess my luck being terrible is now mathematically proven lmaoo)

    my biggest brag in genshin is that whenever I want a 4 star and wish for them specifically I get the banner 5 star more often (i.e I had to spend to get Yanfei and I got Zhongli at 0 - 10 pity with a 50/50 twice)

    It took 6 months to reach pity based of full time finishing daily commission. In some patches let's exclude the amount of chest in overworld, compesation gems and web events you could get between 1.2- 1.5k primogems but if you reach mid or endgame point that can finish abbys 2 weeks rotation all floor 9-11 9 star and floor 12 either 3 - 9 star depends which endgame point and character you have you could basicaly get 1.3k - 1.8k primos every 6 weeks. So in general you can reach soft pity 2 or 3 months faster base on the overall grinds to get pity rate but if we include the former 3 we exclude it can at least make another around 10 - 20+ days faster to reach pity.

    Wanted to mention the standard banner does have its own wierd system when it comes to 5*s. If u go to hard pity basicly put 70 plus wishes in to get the 5* drop it will always be the opposite of what u got last time u went to hard pity. Example if you got qiqi last time you wished at 70+ wishes and then next time u wish and it goes to 70+ you will get a weapon like skyward harp for example. Now lets say u get an early drop at like 50 or 30 wishes that wont change your hard pity one it will still flip flop between weapon or character depending on what u last got at that point.

      @leonardomeloni69 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@Vidmiloo hi one question
      since the probabilities for either banner are the same before soft pity, can we consider the amount of wishes as one big pity system where the probable averages count if you will put in 800+ wishes?
      Example: I will have 800 wishes. I would like to Pull Elegy, EL, and 5 copies (2 of Raiden, 3 of Nahida). In the best case scenario (winning the 50/50s vs not winning at all) using 75 pity as average and 65 for weapons it would take about 505 pulls, while in the worst case scenario 1140 wishes.
      Using your probabilistic averages it would be 740 wishes, meaning with 800 wishes I should be able to get everything. Im using the real average for the weapon banner for this calculation, while the 94 wishes for the character one.
      Can we consider also the weapon banner probabilities as if they were one with the character banner ones? And use the probabilistic average for the weapon banner too? In this case the needed wishes would go down to 658. After all, the basic probability is the same as the character banner until soft pity hits.
      TLDR lol: do you think 800 wishes can be good enough for a serious attempt?

    • @Vidmiloo
      @Vidmiloo  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@leonardomeloni69 The odds of reaching soft pity on either banner are the same (about 35% of the time), but the baseline odds for the weapon banner are higher, as well as it having a higher expected number of 5 stars obtained with respect to the desired 5 star. The banners have to be looked at separately, especially since the weapon banner is even more prone to variance.
      About 2 in 3 5 star characters (67%) are the desired rate up. 1 in 2 (~50%) 5 star weapons is the specific desired rate up factoring in epitomized path. Overall, the average for the weapon banner comes out to be approximately 106 per desired 5 star, or 132 assuming you go to soft pity twice. I'd stick to the 132 assumption for the weapon banner generally, especially since you're not going to wish on it nearly as much as on the character banner. That's why it's safer to assume worse than the average here.
      This means for your scenario, the average wishes comes out to be about 733. Since you're above this average threshold, you have a good shot at getting everything. Even better odds if elegy and engulfing lightning end up on the same weapon banner by some miracle.
      Wish for the characters first before you go for those weapons though. If you end up wishing too much on the weapon banner early on, you might miss out on one of your constellations.
      TLDR: It's about enough, but don't start with the weapon banner.

      The issue is Venti and Elegy are probably coming in 4.1 according to speculations lol

      Then Raiden in 4.3 and Nahida in 4.4
      Or maybe İ have to choose what to sacrifice between C2 Nahida, C3 Raiden or EL/Elegy
      The fact is for Raiden Hypercarry İ dont have any 674 atk weapon, Bennett is on Skyward blade and Sara on Sac bow for now.
      Since the Harp is on the standard banner İ thought about pulling Elegy for her, and a part of me is hoping to get some more 5 star weapons of the standard banner, ideally aquila favonia or harp
      By chance do you know the damage increase of Elegy vs Sacrificial Bow?

    Great video! The infographics and clear explanations were great! I really look forward to seeing more content from you.
    One question - was the omission of information about the hidden character/weapon balancing system a decision you made? By that I mean the system that ensures you receive a similar number of characters and weapons over time, before rate-ups are considered. I'm guessing it was, since you appear to be quite knowledgeable about the gacha system otherwise. Do you think it was too complex or distracted too much from the important points you wanted to make? I think it's quite an interesting topic, but not terribly relevant to actually giving advice for gacha expectations.

    • @Vidmiloo
      @Vidmiloo  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      At the time, yes, I did choose to leave it out, since it's exclusive to the standard banner. Not exactly a priority in terms of primogem spending, but that itself is an idea that definitely could have been conveyed in this video, which then might have brought the character-weapon "even split" fact into conversation.
      There's quite a bit of analysis that, in hindsight, I wish I included in this video, rather than mostly state the facts and provide a few words of advice, and overall i'm not too happy with my wish videos anymore, but hopefully their main messages can get across to people as to what's important to remember.
      Glad you liked the video, more content is (slow but steadily) on the way!

      @happy_ice_cream 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@Vidmiloo Correct me if my info is outdated, but I'm pretty sure it's not actually exclusive to the standard banner! It's the reason that ~45% of 4-star pulls that aren't one of the three rate-up characters on the limited character banner are weapons, and only ~5% are characters - the balancing system makes it much much more likely to pull a weapon for off-rate pulls, because the rate-up pity system ensures that the on-rate pulls are characters. I believe it works the same way for the weapon banner - except characters are more likely as off-rate 4-star drops.
