If you've ever played RAID: Shadow Legends, you know the thrill and often the frustration of pulling shards in hopes of summoning a legendary champion. The game's RNG system can leave players feeling disheartened after numerous pulls without landing a coveted champion. To mitigate this, Plarium introduced a feature known as the "Pity System," but understanding how it works, its effectiveness, and its impact on free-to-play (F2P) and low-spender players is crucial. Let's dive into the details of this system and see if it truly helps.
What Is the Pity System in RAID: Shadow Legends?
The Pity System is a subtle mechanic designed to boost your chances of pulling higher rarity champions, specifically Epic and Legendary ones, the longer you go without summoning one. Essentially, if luck isn't on your side for an extended period, the game adjusts the odds in your favor until you finally get a desirable pull. This system aims to prevent those disheartening "dry streaks" where players might go through dozens or even hundreds of shards without a good champion. While Plarium doesn't openly advertise this feature in-game, it has been verified through datamining, developer statements, and numerous player experiences.
Sacred Shards
For Sacred Shards, the base chance of pulling a Legendary champion is 6% per pull. The Pity System kicks in after 12 pulls without a Legendary. From the 13th pull onward, your odds increase by 2% with each subsequent pull:
- 13th pull: 8% chance
- 14th pull: 10% chance
- 15th pull: 12% chance
Is the Pity System Helpful for the Average Player?
The effectiveness of the Pity System isn't straightforward. While it's designed to help, many players report that the system's benefits are often realized too late, as they might already have pulled a Legendary champion by the time the increased odds come into play. This raises the question of how the system could be improved. Having a Pity System is undoubtedly beneficial, especially in a gacha game like RAID: Shadow Legends.
For F2P players, the constant grind and farming for shards without landing a Legendary can be incredibly frustrating. The Pity System is a necessary feature, but it could be enhanced. For instance, reducing the number of pulls needed to trigger the Pity System from 200 to 150 or 170 could make a significant difference. This adjustment would help players save more shards regularly and make the system feel more impactful.
To enhance your RAID: Shadow Legends experience, consider playing on a larger screen using your PC or laptop with a keyboard and mouse through BlueStacks. This setup can elevate your gameplay and make your journey through Teleria even more enjoyable.
