So is the pick hoodoo, to roll, wait 5 minutes if you got a silver egg? But if its gold hammer the lever? Anything to that bullshit? lol
I can tell you what I saw which was 3 whites first minute, 2 silvers second minute, and 3 gold 3rd minute. I wasn't really buying into the whole thing but maybe there's something to it.

I had 35 stones saved up on an alt account.

7 rolls spread a minute apart. All 3* and 4* garbage.

I'm going to drink a beer and watch an episode of Stargate Atlantis before rolling a few times on my good alt account. Later tonight after a few more beers I will roll on my main account.

I'm so glad I did those initial rolls tonight on my throwaway alt account. I would be pretty pissed at throwing away 35 stones on my main. =)

HOW TO ROLL REM: Simple version:

1. Roll once.
2. If you get a gold egg IMMEDIATELY ROLL AGAIN.
3. If you get a gold egg IMMEDIATELY ROLL AGAIN.
4. Check step 3.
5. If you roll 3* or 4* wait 60 seconds before rolling again.

Long Version: When you start a dungeon your game connects with the server and you receive the full list of drops for that run. You can put the game on airplane mode and finish the run. There have been multiple cases where people start the dungeon at the exact same time and get identical drops. This led to the theory that the "randomness" is more of a time stamp governed algorithm. Such as all dungeons requested from the server at specifically "12:12:30 pm" (made up time) end up getting drops a,b,c. GungHo had to split up metal dragon times to cut down on their server load. Think how many people are hitting the REM when godfest pops up. They can't handle millions of unique requests so it was streamlined.

Instead of thousands of people wanting a unique roll it was broken down to a few seconds gets you a specific flavor.

(Made up time chart)

12:00-12:30 3*
12:31-12-50 4*
12:51-12:59 Gold Egg
1:00-1:30 3*
1:31-1:50 4*
1:51-1:59 Gold Egg
2:00-2:30 3*

Nobody knows the exact amount of seconds you have to work with. That variable has not been pinned down and is something Gungho can alter very easily. The simple chart is just to explain the idea.

Basic idea is that you have a few seconds of a window in which if you roll you get the same level of crap.

As such if you get a gold egg you should immediately hammer the again button and try to crank out another egg. If you managed to hit the beginning of a "gold egg window" you might be able to squeeze out a few in succession. My personal best from using this method over the last 4-5 months has been 7 gold eggs in a row.

If you roll a crappy 3* or 4* do not roll again for a short period of time. I do not know how long you should wait. The method I read about says wait 1 minute. Frankly 1 minute is about as much as my brain will allow me to wait so it works for me. It might be 40 seconds...or fluctuate randomly. Who knows.

The whole point of this exercise is roll immediately after getting a gold egg and pause if you don't. That's it. I've had some really insane luck with my rem rolling by sticking with this method.

Hopefully you're on a good episode / arc on Stargate Atlantis... and hopefully my above streak took out all the bad shit for you. Good luck!

Cost me 4 stones but I got a Hera-IS today too. Didn't feel like a long run so I did a glass cannon double horus. Lucifer, Blodin, and Hera-is... not a bad day. Only ones I really want right now that I still need are the ever elusive Grodin, Neptune, and Ama.

cleared zeus dios and got 5th stone...

went for a roll...

Archangel Lucifer. Thank you and good night PAD. JP and US accounts are now Lucifer enabled :p


As an unimportant side note... I had Hera use "Mischief by God" on her first attack. So if you guys do notice something different from what I post, please let me know

Did four rolls, wll keep the rest of the stones I bought for stamina refreshes and descends at later dates.

Got a Uriel, the mandatory Failio, Titan (thanks RNG), and Shiva. Floral what? At least I can field a fairly absurd grindy red team once I get a few boatloads of XP. As long as I don't need to finish any dungeons the same day I start them....

Edited because late night typing on phone leads to comprehensability failure.

Ran through Zeus Dios with an Astaroth team, 2 hades, Neptune, dark Ceres...it took almost an hour and 4 stones.

Now time for sleep!

I even used sorrows method. Rolls were minutes apart. Shitty luck! I'd rather of had the 125 box space extra.

Mandrake

Undine

(This is where I broke down and bought 30 stones)

Cupid

Dark Angel Metatron (Immediate reroll)
Earth Golem

Dark Angel Metatron (Really? Immediate reroll)
Blue Odin
Fairlio

So some weird luck, but I guess it could have been much worse. I tried the minute apart after a non-gold thing with the stones I bought, and it kinda worked? Maybe.

Dark Metatron followed right after by Blue Odin? The two rarest rolls back to back.

Hell I dropped $150+ going for Dark Metatron before I gave up =)

For my account, those rolls are almost too good. Like, I don't think I have the right gods to make a whole team, so Blue Odin is sort of a waste. (I have Hermes, Michael, Ceres, Hell Queen Persephone, Anubus, and SoD Lucifer.) Dark Metatron + SoD Lucifer seems facerollingly obvious, but I'm not sure how the rest of that team would go.

The Haku should be interesting, though. I remember enjoying borrowing Isises, and I don't have an Isis or Horus to call my own.

I highly question these rolling methods i used up 30 stones back to back and pulled mostly crap (highlander, blue healer girl, GOdin, highlander #2, red titan, and another random crap i cant remember).
