=== Finding probability & needed money ===
 
There are 12 different types of rewards that are all exactly same likely to get. If your karma is positive, the chance of getting ''anything'' is at least 0.05 ('''5%''').
Line 38 ⟶ 34:
This means that the chance of ''getting what you want'' is at least 0.05/12 ≈ 0.004167 ≈ '''0.4%'''.
 
When using 30 gold per attempt, with positive karma, you will likely not need more than (1/probability)*30 money to get what you want. Because of the high number of attempts needed, this is a quite accurate "maximum" value. That is (12/0.05)*30 = '''7200 goldmoney''', which is acceptable for the rare items.
 
=== You want something specific from a ''present''? ===
 
Now it becomes expensive, don't do that. Really, don't do that. None of the items in the present are worth the wishing well money:
 
The chance of getting one specific item from a present is at least (0.05/12)/7 ≈ 0.0006 ≈ '''0.06%'''. That's '''1680 attempts''' or '''50400 money''' on average. Fifty thousand money! Forget this!
