That's a nice ability. I'll be curious to see what the odds of getting an additional badge are.
got 500 blue badge hacks since getting my jam on .. here are my odds so far.
no extra badge 302
yellow badge 64
blue badge 60
red badge 52
green badge 22
total extra badges 198
so 60.4% chance to get no extra badge, 39.6% chance to get an extra badge - so i will call that a 60-40 split.
when awarded an extra badge, i received:
- a yellow 32.3% of the time (12.8% of total hacks);
- a blue 30.3% of the time (12.0% of total hacks);
- a red 26.3% of the time (10.4% of total hacks); and
- a green 11.1% of the time (4.4% of total hacks)
my guess is that it is a 30-30-30-10 split.
will likely update when i get another 500 and see if the numbers hold up.
as an aside, in a previous comment in this topic, i suggested that i might stop PvPing around rank 2200 once that was no longer worthwhile. i am currently rank 2316 and still collecting red badges au naturel, so i'm going to up that 'end-PvP' range to say rank 2500. that still gives me nearly a 200 rank runway to close the 812 kills needed to catch Ignatnic on the kills leaderboard.
