Does anyone know the criteria for getting free rolls on the Golden Pig Machine from your friends? It doesn’t seem to happen on a very consistent basis for me, so I was curious if anyone knew the secret.
ThanksThis post has now been repurposed to serve as a summary for the thread, which has covered many interesting points about the Golden Pig Machines and the set items that come from them.
Rainbow Bar
- The Golden Pig Machine (GPM) and Golden Arena Pig Machine (GAPM) have separate Rainbow Bars.
- Cheap Rolls (3 LC) on the GPM and Common Rolls (5 LC) on the GAPM advance the bar by 2%.
- Expensive Rolls (20 LC) on the GPM advance the bar by 20%. The GAPM doesn’t offer a corresponding high-cost roll.
- When the RB is full, the next roll is guaranteed to give a set item, after which the bar resets.
Free rolls on friends’ GPM/GAPM
- Normally, there is a 24-hour cooldown between free friend rolls. The GPM and GAPM have separate cooldown timers.
- If you do not have Facebook friends, there is a 48-hour cooldown between free rolls from Piggy McCool.
- Because these rolls are on a friend’s GPM, they do not advance your Rainbow Bar.
- However, if you have a full RB when you take a free friend roll, you will receive the guaranteed set item and your RB will reset.
Friends rolling on your GPM/GAPM
- Friends rolling on your GPMs advance the Rainbow Bar by 2%, the same as Cheap or Common Rolls.
- Since friend selection is random, it is possible that none of your friends will roll on your GPMs for a long period of time; the more friends you have, the more likely one of them will be given a roll on your GPMs. After 24 hours, there is a chance that Piggy McCool will roll on your GPMs to fill the gap.
Free video rolls
- Normally, there is a 48-hour cooldown between free video rolls. The GPM and GAPM have separate cooldown timers.
- Free video rolls advance the Rainbow Bar by 2%, the same as Cheap or Common Rolls.
Legendary set items
- The GPM and GAPM are the only sources of set items.
- Cheap/Common and free rolls have a 5-6% chance of giving a set item.
- Expensive Rolls on the GPM have an “increased chance” of giving a set item. (We have much less data on this, but what we do have suggests that it’s at least 12%.)
- For a given amount of Lucky Coins, you will get more set items from Cheap Rolls than you will from Expensive Rolls.
- See the table below for stats on set items.
Rainbow Riot
- Rainbow Riot (RR) begins after filling a Mighty Eagle’s Stamp Card (defeating the Golden Pig 7 days in a row).
- RR lasts for 15 minutes and affects both the GPM and GAPM.
- During RR, the chance of receiving a set item is tripled to about 15%.
