    [other game mechanics aspects]

    you are wondering how high
    is the chance to get a dye?
    chance is low. let me explain.
    my description will be plain:

    take a die. oh no, take eight.
    those with 20 facets. great.
    are you ready? throw the dice.
    all show twenty? take the dyes!

    purpose: to define the possibility of getting mysterious dye lvl 5 from diania npc

    during the experiment we have exchanged adena for mysterious dye 5000 times. we have spent 5 billion adena during the whole experiment. the results are shown in the table below.

    conclusion: as you can see from the table, during the experiment we have acquired only 11 dyes of lvl 5, which is about 0.22% of the total amount of acquired dyes. if your goal is to get a lvl 5 dye, than gambling for it with diania is not the cheapest way to do it.
