I'm glad you brought the comparison between the price of a full AAA game and the insanity of Raid prices

[LordBouz]

Its ridiculus that the mercy resets after the event...

[dougsmith]

Completely agree, Nubkeks. I have gotten nearly every prism pull I could get through events (at least 30 at this point) without a single leggo. I've been waiting for the mercy system, and this is a joke. In fact, they just lowered the chance of me ever getting the one champion in the pool I ever actually care about! This is the most egregious "we don't care about you unless you spend money" move Plarium has done - worse than "please buy Xena." Please give them the feedback that this is a slap in the face to the vast majority of their player base.

Don't Hype the PR hydra accessories, They gonna nerf it if they see us Happy

Nubs was feeling sassy today…”ope they have a trunda key we’re f****.”
“Hindsight’s 20/20 huh guys.”
“Mercy system is trash.”
Completely agree with all of them, but this was the funniest video from you in a while nubs😂😂

[xJPolley]

If they're going to have the mercy reset each event, they should at least not have the shards auto pull. That way people could save however many to benefit from it eventually. Then again, I don't understand what's so hard about just letting it build up over multiple events.

The reason this channel is my favorite out of all the CCs is because Nubs speaks his mind. I love that you say what you think. All the other CCs are too censored when it comes to language. I was raised by pirates, so I curse like a sailor. Glad to hear some colorful language in Raid videos, I curse at this game at least 20 times a day! lmao Thanks for the video and the honestly Nubs! See ya on the next one!

The hydra chests are bloody fantastic. I got so much great protection gear. Delighted with the change

[feltymcfelted]

“Hindsight is 20/20 huh guys?” Took me out! Lmaoooo

[mikehernandez]

Cyberpunk is like wine. Gotten better with age, dlc's, and bugfixes. Many, many bugfixes. Glad you are enjoying it!

I think some of your prism shard logic doesn't quite work out. Whether they code it this way or not, think of the pulls to be broken down into buckets (A, B, C). B-Pool has a 4% chance of hitting and the A-Pool 2% chance. You can break down B-Pool to say each Legendary has a 2/3 percentage chance of hitting, but for all intents and purposes when you hit that Wukong, Samson, or whoever, you are hitting the B-Pool at that 4% clip. So if the goal of your summons is to hit that Headliner, you're still pulling it at half the rate of a B-Pool Legendary.

Hydra clash change sounds good. Like a lot of things in RSL that seem good at first, might not be good in the long term or have unintended consequences that turn out to be crap.

[paper_lions]

The personal hydra rewards are great for people that do billions in damage, not so great for people that do 100m. After the first couple of chests, you are looking at weeks until your next accessories. If they had just added rewards for 4th and 5th place, it would have been better for everyone. This is mostly just better for people that already do billions in damage.

A complicated fix that increases imbalance.

[nevyns]

hydra is not really friendly content, requires a lot of specific champs to get anywhere on it.

[KresnikOSRS]

From my f2p perspective, I just take it as a slight improvement to the odds for the prism events. I just ignore the new whale mercy rule since it'll never apply to me and compare the event before and after. Instead of a ~1% chance at a faction unity champ it's a 2% chance which is 2x odds compared to before. So Plarium essentially gave a minor improvement to the system for no extra effort so it's a small win! It's unlikely I'll get the champ still, but that will always be the case with shard pulling based events (excluding guaranteed events).

The expected outcome is still an Epic, with a chance at a cool lego and that's how you should evaluate these events when determining if you want to participate or not. If you go into any pulling event with an "all-in" perspective expecting to get an exact champion, you're going to have a bad time. People get too worked up about RSL odds like they forget their playing a gatcha game made by a casino based company. Play the odds if you want to, but remember it's a game of chance at the end of the day so have some fun, roll the dice, and hopefully lady luck blesses you and if she doesn't there'll be a new shiny champ to go for in a couple days or weeks ;)

[swamb]

The real problem is that there is still a large group of people who gladly spent thousands on Raid. Plarium can only set prices this insane because there is a market for it. And yes anyone can do with their money what they want, just saying this is the main problem of Plarium's behaviour

[benpaterson]

The whole reason i do the hydra clash is for primal quarts so I was really hoping for more of that

[diceonrice]

Im so happy you bring back those wixwell nasty comments. Lol. People just love to hate. Even before the infinity shield even with poor shield growth HH has always said other part of his kit is useful too.

[rhunl]

I didn't know that "Nub reads mean comments" was the content I needed. 🤣

[richardcochran]

this was the first week I went over 100 mil on hydra and the rewards were nice

[dylanshavefeelstoo]

What you mentioned about cyberpunk and spending 30 bucks on that hits so close, I've spent a few hundred on raid since I started six months ago, now anytime something looks like a good deal I'll be thinking about buying a game instead! Cheers

[martinprovo]

I was looking forward to seeing your coverage--par for the course, Plarium does a half thought system.

There is absolutely no reason to reset the mercy each time.

I was actually hoping they were going to do a gauranteed champion event system along with a mercy, i.e. open 15 prism, gaurantee a legendary/headline champ and if you pull that champ before hand, ends the gaurantee.

Either way, there should be no reason the mercy resets. All that does isnpunish F2P for not spending, and this is coming from someone that buys prisms when I feel the pool has a drastic upgrade from my account's roster.
