    Boost

    Why the hell do we have so many failed boost in "world boss"
    i ended up spending 3000k before i noticed most of it was one failed boost.
    Is it like a 10% chance of boosting sucessfully?!

    You just answered your own question.

    "Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
    "How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
    "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

    What I find works best is just set a limit on what you're willing to spend. Based on your power level and the event, calculate what you think your average profit is. Only boost as far as you need to in order to maximize it. For example, if you're low or mid power, you may end up blowing more creds on boosting than you can reasonably expect to make back. Not boosting gets you lower rewards, but it's all above the line. Usually there's a happy medium in there somewhere, but the odds of success seem to go down the higher you go, and the prices go up. Sometimes you might click 3 times and end up at 60, sometimes 60 clicks and end up at 20. It's a crap shoot.

    I usually don't boost,...because if you are looking for the bigger returns the odds are really stacked against you! you can get really carried away tapping that credit boost thing,.. and before you know it you have spent far more than you wanted too,..to try and get the boost that you wanted,.. and stacked against that is the small amount of returns at the end,... but on the other side I have known peeps get really lucky by only spending a reasonable amount of creds to get there boost that they wanted,... it is a crap shoot Just as Danni said,.. but I think Clint Eastwood had it ryt when he said Man's just got to know his limitations

    I never boost on Rag. No return on investment. On Cerb and Baal only when needed to insure a kill. On HP whatever I need to get as high as I can.

    I boost 80% on just about everything, but I have a process that makes sure I retain the credits I need for talents and other credit expenses.

    Ragnarok is the only event where sometimes I don't boost 80%, partially because the rewards are usually not enough to justify the cost.

    Heaven Palace in particular is valuable for me to boost fully since I can usually achieve a 90+ score.
