Cobalt Card Math?


(Black) #1

I’ve been trying to save up to be able to trade up all my cards to get a nice cobalt card for one of my mercs, however I’m not sure how to do it without my trade ups going all over the place or paying more than I need.

Assuming I have a an abundance of lead cards. How much money and iron cards would I need in order to get ONE cobalt card. Been trying to do that math for so long and I keep messing up.

444*6 = 384 iron cards.

96,000 (Bronzes) + 48,000 (Silver) + 24,000 (Gold) + 10,000 = 178,000c

This is assuming you have all iron cards. Factoring in lead to iron trade-up’s too it would be this:

34446 = 1152 lead cards.

192,000 (Irons) + 96,000 (Bronzes) + 48,000 (Silver) + 24,000 (Gold) + 10,000 = 370,000c

So this is why I’ve always got 0 credits at the end of the week. Grinding like a scrub for BL33/2 Fletcha.

Aren’t you happy you asked? :smile:

Cobalt Math?

Cobalt Upgrade = X
X = Too Much

Bet you can do the rest :smile:

Good lord that is making my brain hurt.
It seems like I have better chances of accumulating 100,000c, and buying a whole bunch of cases where I might get silver, gold, and cobalt.

Yeah. It’s not very appealing, especially if you play multiple mercs regularly. Sticking with bronzes until better stuff shows up at random these days - just not worth the hassle.
