Five years later following @greatleo’s strategy and was maxing out just under 100K. Kept trying and trying to break the century mark and then hit for over 105K. Won’t be back.

Getting back to the research at hand… @greatleo I conducted another test today, 100 trials of Bomb exploding on CPC-1. I tracked the mastery at 50 and at 100, and the results for each half were 33.1% and 36.8% for an overall average of 34.9%. Looks like the update didn’t change anything with regards to mastery drop rates, but it does seem like…[Read more]

@greatleo — Yeah, the HTML accepted in the forum posts is fairly limited; might only be the ones in the boxes above. I’ll try to copy directly into main post, which may be more forgiving.

@dr_ishmael @greatleo @toothgnasher — I just made a major update to the main post. I would like to include a copy of Dr Ishmael’s table, but I can’t figure out how. I can’t get the url address from his album (understandable, I guess). I think Dr. Ishmael needs to send me the url. Just noticed he isn’t on my friend’s list so am sending him a…[Read more]

@greatleo — Good suggestion, I will include @dr_ishmael‘s table in the next first page update, which is certainly overdue.
Will have to try autoplay on KPC. Thanks for pointing that out. My Thunderbird and Skulkers are the weakest of my birds, however. -

@greatleo Ack! Sorry, you both have Bomb for an avatar so I get you confused. @_@

@greatleo I’ll confirm the King Pig’s mastery amount momentarily. That’s a good find!
[edit] Yes, he gives 14 mastery points at level 41. I think I’ll switch to KPC for “auto-play while I work” farming.
Here’s an updated version of the image Leo mentioned, with wave 5 included.
For hands-on farming, repeat CPC wave 1.
For hands-off farming,…[Read more] -

@greatleo Welp, tonight’s trials leave me stumped, because they agree with your numbers, instead of my numbers from yesterday.
Scenario 1 (Explode on 5 little pigs) I ran differently, using my secondary account on my iPhone. Birds were level 26, rank 5. Drop rate: 31.4%
Scenario 2 (Heroic Strike on Big Boss) I ran identically, using my main…[Read more]

@greatleo Tick marks? On paper? Ahh, how analog. XD Seriously, though, this seems really weird, as there doesn’t seem to be anything in either of our methodologies that would explain the difference in our results.
My scenario 1 results were very consistent across the 3 100-trial blocks, with the rate for each block being in the range (36±0.5)%.…[Read more]

@greatleo I ran scenario 1 on my iPhone. Scenario 2 was automated in Andy. (I’ve added this to my earlier post.)
How did you track the number of trials? I “synchronized” my hands so that as my left hand hit “pause” and “reset” in the game, my right hand was typing “0” and “Enter” into Excel – when a WR showed up I typed “1” instead of “0”. I…[Read more]

@greatleo — Just checked — the Big Boss does drop twice the mastery. Above when I reported results with and without the Big Boss, I was assuming he only dropped one mastery. Consequently, my conclusion about his frequency of dropping was incorrect. The same frequency with twice the mastery is probably just as good or better. Sorry, but I’m not a…[Read more]

@greatleo — Very interesting data. I totally agree that my data falls in the category of “statistics” of small numbers. One question though — Do you know that the Big Boss drops twice the mastery?
[Edit]: Since GreatLeo collected so much data, I don’t think it is worthwhile to give more details about my few numbers of runs.
For the record, I…[Read more] -

@greatleo @toothgnasher @mvnla2 Great research here, guys! Summarizing your results, it looks like the chance of a mastery drop is 1 in 3, or 33.3%. And since MVNLA2’s result with the Big Boss is actually lower than Tooth’s result without him, I don’t think the type of pig makes any difference.

My run of 200 just finished the CPC test. Here is the raw data. It was an amazing outcome in terms of total mastery gained. I am not sure why I got such a high mph result. Perhaps it is the efficiency of NOT trying to kill the BOSS which, as you noted drops more mastery.
The upper left number is the elapsed time, and that…[Read more]

@greatleo – Thanks for doing the research. I’ve been running automation, but at this point most of my birds are at or near level 10, so my long tests are not as useful as yours. That said, I’ll see what results I get with 200 runs. (Level 41, Berserker9, Cleric9, Guardian9 – As noted in my video above, I’ll attack the upper character with…[Read more]

@greatleo — Well I answered one question anyway. Ran CPC 20 times with level 9 SeaDog (only one attacking) and level 9 Paladin and Princess. Your estimate was 2190 mastery per bird per hour.
My numbers agree pretty well with yours. I noticed that I also got a wealthy rogue 2/20 times. He replaced one of the stick pigs, and was not killed. -
MVNLA2 replied to the topic Mastery Points in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 9 years, 3 months ago
@greatleo — Very interesting. Did you only take one bird into the battle? Was it 2191 mastery per bird or 2191 mastery for 3?
Would be really interesting to know if you get the same results for a castle that has harder opponents in the first wave. : D (I find it amazingly easy to think up time-consuming questions for others to answer.) -

This post is a summary of the mastery discussion that occurred in the snoutlings thread. It is heavily edited, and the order of some posts have been changed. I hope I gave credit to everyone appropriately, and didn’t distort what you said.

@greatleo Most pigs drop the same amount that increases with pig level (7 at level 41). Some pigs drop double that amount. I haven’t compiled a complete listing yet, but I’m fairly certain that all variants of these pigs are included.
Brute
Knight
Mustache
Shaman
Wizard (white mustache)“Big” versions of basic pig types also drop double…[Read more]
