    Longest fail streak on stars

    Update: I am proud to announce that on my 15th attempt in a row at 45% on adamanti stars I had success, although I did pay the 10 gems for one of the medals this time, maybe that gives you a boost in percentage as with the previous 14 fails I did not purchase any via the 10 gem amount.

    Definitely unusual, but not impossible.With 50+ servers and a fairly large number of players all trying to gain a bunch of stars, someone will hit a run of bad luck. I think my longest run is about five failures trying to go from 4 to 5 stars.

    yeah i'm trying to go from 4 to 5 right now, had this hero at 5 and went for 6, biggest mistake of my life, now i'm at 4 and have failed 12 times in a row going to 5. It would be nice if they were honest about the percentages, but what can ya do I guess.

    Same exact situation here, except I've only been up to 6 fails so far. Any chance you are starring Saffron?

    25 stars to reach level 2 lol.

    also i'm trying to build another sword and i've gotten the staff the last 15 attemps, the odds of that are .... really really really low. makes no sense.

    i spent over 5,000 gems trying to get to 9 stars on my main and ended back at 8. 10% my ass.

    Lol! My longest fail streak so far has been 8 fails for 4 to 5 stars. But percentages are honest IMHO. The percentage is not based on number of tries, but percentage for each try. So if you have a 45% success rate, it applies to each try. 55% chance of fail and 45% chance of success. Each and every time. Not a cumulative percentage rate over all attempts for that star. I chuckle each time I see much lower level and power players with 7 or 8 stars on every hero and look at my 3, 4 and 5 star heroes at lvl 59. It's always just a roll of the dice.

    Hope you luck improves soon. Mine too.

    i'm sure they will say it's a percentage of a percentage like with evony you can and i have failed at 100% success rate. 12 seems a lil excessive on 1 hero, it will be a while before I can give it a 13th shot. I'm rank 1 in arena which for me I never get gems as stakes and if anyone around me does they are guild members. Dumping that many medals to get nowhere is pretty painful but i'm failing multiple cards at 90% success rate also so i guess they are just having their way with my account. Upset about my posts or notes to customer support : )

    my last 15/16 sanctify cards have either failed or been an attribute the hero can't use. My last 12 star attempts have failed on the same hero at 45%. I'm starting to notice a trend here.

    Just cleared heaven's palace which took about 4 hours to beat and changing formation over and over to get 100 scores only to be rewarded with a shayd card which gave me physical attack, I give up.

    I don't think the devs at Tynon go "just for laughs lets screw this guy over".

    If you win more cards, you're more likely to fail since probability means the more you have, the more you will have a chance at failure. As for the stars, I really don't think you're alone there. As soon as I fail on a star upgrade, I walk away from it. Hitting it like a demon just increases the fails.
