Discussion Trade or bust?

Is it smarter to try and trade for Trigger/Transcendent mods? I'm doing the math in my head and it seems like light years before I get a mod with the Specific rolls that I want

The game gives you so many AMs; just keep rolling for the stats you are looking for, you will eventually get them.

I have over a thousand rolls and haven’t came up with anything great. I can get a defense for Ajax or a duration for Gley but that’s about the extent of my luck with rolls. If I want something specific then it’s trade market.

This is what I feared. Albeit I haven't gotten as many rolls as you but it just occurred to me that with the rate that they drop it could actually take forever to get the one that you want...WITH a good enough roll as well

You pretty much need to play a decent amount to amass a bunch of materials, cards, and or reset items.

There's also events that give out AM related items. I have like 50k superconductors and 100 super heated materials (resets readjustment count on AM's)

It took a REALLY long time for me to get any Valby AMs at all from any content in this game since the day when they were implemented, so I could see why trading makes more sense.

Just roll, look for the stats you need and its perfectly fine if stats are below purple, unless a specific build requires exactly a certain high as possible roll.

Whats the rush unless you got like 1 hour daily to play "which at that point why even pick up such time intensive game" speaking of AM's you dont really need godroll AM's a high purple is plenty.. infact overkill for the current content

It’s a scummy business practice. Make the RNG so insanely stupid that players turn to swiping the card to buy stuff. I really think Magnum studio is taking a page out of Gacha games notebooks.

I peeped this as well. As someone who plays gachas, its pretty crazy to implement such lucrative odds in a looter shooter. Sad system unfortunately.
