it would also be accurate to say it's less than a tenth of a percent, or less than a fifteenth of a percent, or less than a nineteenth of a percent.

I don't think the "general populace" is that confused by smaller fractions than a half...

I've popped 1210 minions so far and never popped one. I'm mainly doing it for the achievement, but will feed any and all the minions - not just the expensive ones. Fully support increasing the drop rate.

I've assigned this to the same category as the Oracle Quests - an achievement I might get in another 10 years!

I’ve popped over 6000 minions (I have the top tier achievement and have gone a little beyond that) and I think I’ve popped 2 bubbles in feeding those 6000+ minions. I would definitely love to see the odds of the bubbles popping be improved. There’s not much incentive to do this after you hit the achievement, unless Major Drills asks you to.

(thank you to for my siggie)

reminder to take a look at the minion bubble popping rate, which is currently maybe a twentieth of a percent and maybe only applies to common minions (we are not sure), and considering raising it/applying to all minions?

Thanks!

Okay, so some background!

As I started snooping, it looked like the rate was 1/100 for popping a bubble. Which, rude. You're just trying to help the little friends! It also looks like it's for minions that are rarity 99 and below.

I don't want to adjust the rarity of the items and bubble popping at the same time because that sort of messes with an experiment. So I'm going to adjust the rate at which they pop first to find a good sweet spot. And then mix in some other rarities!

I won't tell you the exact drop rate because I'll be adjusting it over the month, but I can promise you it won't be 1/100!

There is a new drop rate as of right now!

So, I finished the achievement a long time ago but I continue to feed minions occasionally when Major Drills sends me there. In all this time, I've only popped a few bubbles and I thought I just had bad luck because they were always common minions. Now I find out there was never any chance of getting the rare ones after all. I've always prioritized feeding the high-value ones in hopes of getting a good one in case I get lucky and I often feed extras if there are any on my wishlist in the group when I happen to go there. And I've just been wasting my time and sP this whole time ever since I completed the achievement. I feel really misled and kinda cheated. I'd like to propose that only minions that can actually be won should appear in the the bubbles, otherwise this activity is kinda... scammy.

I appreciate that the drop rate is being increased though, thank you!

Hi again! As it is now the end of June, I figured I'd ask you about the progress on adding in more rarities that are poppable and determining the pop rate? :)
