				 Re: luck events 
 
	Getting a hero isn't really a random event, so to speak: It's not affected by random event frequency, only by luck scale.Quote:

 The chance of getting a hero is equal to 3% + your luck scale. So if you have luck-3, you have a 6% noncumulative chance of receiving a hero every turn while supplies Last. Therefore, on average, you can expect to receive a hero every 16-17 turns. The chance of NOT receiving a hero in 16-17 turns is equal to 0.94^17, or 34%.
 
 The frequency with which you are receiving heroes is roughly par for the course.
