Have you ever wondered about your summoning result in FEH overall? On some banners, you may be very lucky, but on some other banners, you may not. But overall, how did you do? In theory, the more summoning you do, the more likely that the result will average-out over time. However, will that be the case in my situation – where I only summon sporadically on few banners?
I wish FEH has some kind of built-in features that keep track all of various summoning stats. Unfortunately, the game has none of that feature. I think if they have this kind of feature, many players will have their mind blown when they see their stats.
Taking Notes
I started taking notes of my orbs balance in FEH and my summoning results last year. I keep track of it once per week in Excel. It’s very simple as I don’t want to spend too much time on it. This is how I do it. Every monday, after the end of Colosseum season, I recorded:
- My orbs balance
- Orbs that I spent
- List of 5 stars heroes (including 4 stars special) I got
My first notes were on March 29, 2021. It’s almost a year now. Here’s my orbs balance.
Here’s how to read the chart. Red bar is my orb expense – summoning session. Left Y-axis is the amount of orbs that I spent. Blue line is the visible orb balance shown on the top right of FEH’s home screen. Green line is the orb balance within FEH’s owl messenger (kind of like a bank). Yellow line is the orb that I can still get by playing the Chain Challenge, Squad Assault, etc that I haven’t finished. The line chart is stacked. Right Y-axis is the total orbs that I have.
As you can see, I have the most amount of orb at this time – close to 1,500 orbs if I were to collect all of the available orbs in the game. The most I spent was 500 orbs on Legendary banner last May – trying to get Legendary Azura (I failed to +10 her at that time – needed 3 but only got 1 with 500 orbs).
I couldn’t stop myself from spending the orbs last December. I had spending sprees – over 700 orbs spent on multiple banners in the last month of 2021.
2021 Stats
From 3/29/2021 – 12/31/2021 (about 9 months)
- 55 5-stars heroes
- 10 4-stars special heroes
- 2,452 orbs spent
- 146 free summons
- 40 forging bond tickets
- 35 special tickets – Golden week, Summer celebration and Black Friday
Per my previous analysis, average luck players spent about 37 orbs per any 5-stars heroes on legendary/mythic banner and 32 orbs per any 5-stars heroes on regular banner.
Before I did this analysis, my initial gut said that my gacha luck was not good. It turned out to be true. Since free summons and tickets can only be done on the first summon of every summoning session, they value 5 orbs each. So, converting all of those to orbs, my total spending in 2021 (since 3/29) was 3,482 orbs. I got a total of 65 5-stars heroes (including the 4-stars special that turn into 5-stars heroes). That results in 53.57 orbs per any 5-stars heroes (including the 4-stars special). This is more than 1.5 times of the average luck players. I had to spend more orbs per 5-stars heroes than average luck players. 🙁 In other words, I’m getting less 5-stars heroes when I spend the same number of orbs than any average luck players.
What about you? Have you ever analyzed your own summoning results?
