April Fool's Skill-up Event (v2)

[u/WootieOPTC]

Similar to last year, let's have a thread to report our success rates, to have an idea of the skill-up going on.

Skill Up rates will vary between 2x and 4x

For reference, Global rates :

Base rate	Skill-up x2	Skillup x3	Skillup x4
23%	46%	69%	92%

Now, for today :

Session	Starting time PST	Duration	Theoretical	Practical estimation (samples)
1 (ended)	00:00	3 hours	Skill-up x3	Skill-up x2 (116/299 - 38.80%)
2 (ended)	03:00	1 hour	Skill-up x4	Skill-up x4 (395/446 - 88.57%)
3 (ended)	04:00	7 hours	Skill-up x2	Skill-up x2 (106/233 - 45.49%)
4 (ended)	11:00	1 hour	Skill-up x4	Skill-up x4 (456/505 - 90.30%)
5 (ended)	12:00	7 hours	Skill-up x2	Skill-up x2 (26/63 - 41.27%)
6 (ended)	19:00	1 hour	Skill-up x4	Skill-up x4 (149/160 - 93.13%)
7 (ended)	20:00	4 hours	Skill-up x2 or x3	Skill-up x2? (18/35 - 51.42%)

Please, when reporting, add the "session" number (the timeslot) for easier reference for people checking the comments. I'll try to update the table regularly based on the comments, although I won't be there for the last 2 sessions since they will start at 5 AM and 6 AM here (but I'll probably update the last slot since it will last till 10 AM and I'll wake up in the morning)

• "Theoretical" is based on the event from past year, where Bamco gave higher success rate during the shorter periods.

• "Practical" is based on all the comments from this thread (that I add up) plus mine; however since most people don't feed the exact amount required to max a unit, expect those numbers to be a bit below the actual rate. For a bit more "accurate" samples (but much smaller), you can refer to mine below (as I don't feed more than needed to max a unit).

Personal samples

Session 1	Session 2	Session 3	Session 4	Session 5	Session 6	Session 7
13/28 (46.4%)	62/66 (93.93%)*	17/33 (51.51%)*	24/28 (85.7%)	1/4 (25%)	Wootie, 44/46 (95.7%)**	Wootie

*added Moerderbarsh as well since he used the precise numbers

**added Legru, since I was sleeping but he had the precise numbers

PLEASE, post NEW comments for NEW data (do NOT edit your previous ones)

I sort comments by time (from recent to oldest) and once I've added the data, I upvote the comment to mark as "read" (for me), to not waste time and keep up. If you update an old comment, I simply won't see that data and won't be able to add it in the table. So please, whenever you have new numbers, just post a new comment with the new data :-) Thanks.

Thanks to everyone who contributed !! See you next year xD

Thanks for the input (you're the first after 15 minutes in, and the only within 25 mins xD). From your small sample, looks like the regular skill-up x2, likely :p (it's definitely worse than x4, but hey, it's still x2 ^^)

To think I turned on the game on the last minute of the good skill up.. and lost due the booting time

[u/WootieOPTC → u/tadabola]

ouch :x

Well, you'll still have a final session that you could enjoy (unless you're in Europe u_u).

brazil here... thats midnight... I hope I remember... gonna set an alarm or something

[u/WootieOPTC → u/tadabola]

midnight is doable, imo ^^ And quite worth it, since such a high skill-up doesn't come around often, usually at anniversaries xD

Alarm is a good idea, though, volume down your alarm maybe, not to wake-up the neighbours/family if they're asleep around that time usually x)
