So, I've been an (almost) free player since day 1. When my favourite character (SW) turns up in this episode, I wanted it bad. Some quick calculations meant that I will need to be sitting at master cavalier farming rubies like crazy to even get a chance for one half (fyi you get about 3500 rubies if you repeat streak 1-6 until you level up to lieutenant.) I had a go and gave up pretty quickly once I realised that it is almost impossible to farm rubies at lieutenant rank.

It wasn't long before I was reaching out for my credit card.... and regretting it pretty quickly.

Each tier promises increased UR base rate and time and again as I move thru the tiers, crappy cards turn up. 10x 13x 15x 18x.... and all i was getting where R3s. When I got to the final loop 10 card pack with a promised 40x base rate, I was pretty confident that a MTM SW is in sight. but alas, 3000 mobacoins and all I got was a freakin x2 BB and 9 other R3s.

The damage: 8600 mobacoins in total.

I might be naive that I was going to get an MTM SW. It was probably never so easy. I still want it badly though and is contemplating whether to continue fishing - at 3000 a pop.

Could anyone who have experience give any advice? How much on average do you spend before getting a MTM R5 in any episode. I just want to predict my chances.

Will update if I do go for it.

PS does anyone know the UR base rate?
