3k fusings and no 6 link

"
codetaku a écrit :

I'm going on about math. The chance of a million fusings in a row failing to deliver a 6L is approximately (999/1000)^1000000, which is 3 * 10^(-435), ie, an event that will statistically almost certainly never happen. To spell it out for you, the chance of this happening is

Almost certainly wont happen, still a possibility.
I acknowledge that's true, I was just trying to be realistic :)

I never said it was realistic, I just said it was theoretically possible :)
You know Shags is a Math Professor right?

I'll just point out that you all don't understand large numbers. There are approximately 10^85 elementary particles in the universe. So... cut it out with this "theoretically possible" nonsense. The universe wouldn't have the time to conduct an experiment of that scale so no... there's no "theoretically possible" here. If you use 1mil fusings on an item YOU WILL get a 6 link before running out. It's a certainty. No experiment would ever prove me wrong. Ever. Not in a million universe's life spans.

Come on now, did you read anything I said? I already gave the number of atoms (nice one going a step farther for elementary particles :P) for scale in an earlier post. I know exactly how "realistically impossible" it is, but as a math professor, you should know how inappropriate it is to use "theoretically" for something that isn't a literal absolute statement :P

"You all" is not a fair statement. I demonstrated that I know it'll realistically never happen.

At 20q, around 1000 fusings is average. Which means you have about a 1/1000 chance on each fusing to get it.


Eh no, that's not how probability works.

If the probability to 6L with a fuse is 1/1000, the average can be found by (999/1000)^x = 0.5 , which gives you x = log(0.5)/log(999/1000) = 693 fusings (rounded). That's quite far from 1000.

If 1000 fusings is average, probability to fuse can be found by (1-p)^1000 = 0.5 which gives you p = 6.9*10^-4 = 0.00069

This would mean that not having a 6L in 3k fusings has a chance of 0.125 or 12.5% to happen, so it's indeed normal and expected to happen in 1 out of every 8 fuse attempts.
I gave up trying to six SOCKET my Carcass Jack. Nevermind six link. haha

For the amount of time I can play the game, it makes more sense for me to buy the gear already socketed/linked.
And the white guys says, I'll have a Coke then.
You need to tickle RNGezus with some chromatics. It helps!

Probably superstition but I linked my nice Astral in around 400 total and around 100 since my last chromatic tickle :)
