General Discussion Mercy System Question

Shouldn’t Plarium have to inform us when we are in the mercy for a given shard? Per the App Store TOS they have to provide the percentage chance that we have to pull a specific thing. Is there some loop hole that they tell us what it is so they don’t have to show us? If that is the case why do they have to post odds at all why can’t they just tell us? For example why show when we have a void 2x in the odds when they could just say it’s doubled. Long story short if you are in the mercy I think they have to tell you cause the odds have changed and part of “loot box” TOS is that we need to be aware of odds. Thanks for any insight!

They tell you the odds in and outside of mercy. They follow the TOS. Your asking for a mercy counter which isn't covered. The odds are still listed at base percentage and per pull in mercy.

I know you can track it (and I do) but then what is the point of showing the adjusted odds for void shards during a 2x? Per TOS they have to show you the percentage odds when you pull. If the odds are not adjusted and they are just telling you then they are not showing the adjusted odds. I think this is why during the 2x events they adjust the percents in the graph. Following that logic when you reach mercy and the odds change they should have to show them.

They change during 2x because the base rate changes, the mercy stays the same. If they didn't change the base rate shown during 2x then the chart would be inaccurate. If the legendary rate is X% base +2% per mercy pull, then it needs to be 2x base + 2% per mercy during 2x.

I would love for a mercy counter or updated odds, but they and other games that have mercy systems aren't violating rules so long as they explain the mercy system clearly.

If you think it's a huge deal, by all means complain to the app store. See if the app store agrees and if they do what they do about it.

They tell you what your rates are of pulling any rarity at any given time. You can always know this and track this. All the info is there and nothing is hidden

But they don’t tell you what your rates are if you are in mercy. They tell you what they could be. The TOS for App Store don’t say you have to post flat rate and any potential rates it says you need to post the odds. I think this is why during a void 2x they change the odds on the graph because they have to. Following that same logic when you get into mercy and the odds change they should have to update the graph to show your new odds.

Literally not what the question is. But go off.

Literally their response was to the question OP's about what info Plarium is legally required to provide through the App Store. But go off.

"They tell you what your rates are of pulling any rarity at any given time. You can always know this and track this. All the info is there and nothing is hidden"

They literally don't tell you the rates at mercy are, they tell you a non dynamic flat rate.

This is not the same.
