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%''').


This means that the chance of ''getting what you want'' is 0.05/12 ≈ 0.004167 ≈ '''0.4%'''.

When using 30 gold per attempt, you need (1/probability)*30 money to get what you want. That is (12/0.05)*30 = '''7200 gold''', even without karma, which is acceptable for the rare items.
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 gold''', which is acceptable for the rare items.

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%).

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 gold, which is acceptable for the rare items.
