RafaCrossover Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Hi, I just bought the donator status for 7 days, but i think it's a sh#@* (sorry for the word) because the rate of get a siny it's very high even with the ds, maybe your guys need to put something more this, because i do not return more to buy that.

Initial shiny rate is not communicated, but, just as exemple : 1/10 -10% -> 1/9 1/8000 -10% -> 1/7200 1/15000 -10% -> 1/13500 1/30000 -10% -> 1/27000 Well, as you can see, if you "just" bought the ticket, it's "normal" you got no shiny atm.

RafaCrossover Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 But your guys need to put something more attractive when you the donator status if you want more people get one at least Link to comment
frogbussoms Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 It's illogical to shiny hunt with current mechanics. Link to comment

Some even after no luck for years prior. Then there's assholes like Trev who have found 6 in the past 2 months. Link to comment

LOL I think you misunderstand the shiny mechanic of donator status. It increases the rate BY 10%, not TO 10%. It just means you are 10% more likely to encounter a shiny than previously. Note that if the increase was by 100%, it would simply double your odds of encountering a shiny (you wouldn't encounter shinies 100% of the time). i.e. 110% x 1/8192 = 1.1/8192 200% x 1/8192 = 2/8192 = 1/4096 Anyways, since the rate to find a shiny is so low, you will hardly see the difference that the 10% makes. The donator status is something that slightly rewards players for donating money to the game, just speeds up the overall grind by a small amount. It is not intended to have a large impact on the game, because we don't want overt paid-to-win mechanics. edit: Also, the item is for donating to the game... DONATING. You shouldn't expect much in the first place. Edited September 12, 2016 by Gilan Manrick, LifeStyle, Summrs and 2 others 5 Link to comment

LOL It's unreasonable to expect anything more. Beyond that, you're looking at pay to win. Put yourself in the shoes of someone who can't afford Donator Status for reasons out of their control, and consider how you would feel if everyone else were plucking shinies out of the sky. kloneman and Skysha 2 Link to comment
RafaCrossover Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 Its true is better they keep the donator status without change, because then the game will become pay2win and i dont like that, better try to put new content (: Link to comment
frogbussoms Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Well I strictly play pokemon to hunt wild pokemon. I don't PvP ( Flame me if you want ) , for some reason I find A LOT of excitement in catching the "rare" encounter rated pokemon. Finding pokemon with great IV's / nature also is highly satisfying to me. I Have spent my past 500 game hours in the grass strictly searching for good IV poke and searching for my first shiny. With no avail. Personally I think the mechanics are bullshit but, I would be saying otherwise if I had a different perspective. Manrick 1 Link to comment
