EPICFEST (Gacha Event)

EPICFEST is one of the Rare Cat Capsule events in the Battle Cats. This Gacha Event was added in Version 6.0.0 and includes all Uber Rare Cats from every common pool with a higher chance to obtain them. Additionally, the set includes the exclusive characters Shadow Gao, Dark Mitama, D'arktanyan, Kasli the Bane, Dark Aegis Garu, Iz the Dancer of Grief and King of Doom Phono. All EPICFEST exclusive Uber Rares have anti-Traitless special abilities, although Kasli the Bane and King of Doom Phono also have ones that target enemies of other traits.

==Further Information on Gacha Chances==
Below is a comparison showing percentages of getting certain numbers of Ubers for 11-draws in EPICFEST, a guaranteed 11-draw in a normal pool and a normal 5% Uber drop rate pool without a guaranteed Uber.
Number of Ubers 	0 	1 	2 	3 	4 	5 	6 	7 	8 	9 	10 	11
EPICFEST (%) 	35.44	38.55	19.06	5.66	1.12	0.15	0.02	0.00	0.00	0.00	0.00	0.00
Guaranteed Uber (%)	0.00 	59.87	31.51	7.46	1.05	0.10	0.01	0.00	0.00	0.00	0.00	0.00
5% Uber (%) 	56.88	32.93	8.67 	1.37	0.14	0.01	0.00	0.00	0.00	0.00	0.00	0.00
*The results have been rounded to 2 decimal places.
This shows that:
*EPICFEST is more likely to yield 4 to 11 Ubers.
*11-draw guarantee with 5% Uber chance is far more likely to yield 1 to 3 Ubers.
*EPICFEST has more than a third chance to yield nothing.
Furthermore, the expected value for the number of Ubers rolled in an 11-draw can be calculated for each case:
*EPICFEST: 0.99 Ubers.
*Guaranteed 11-draw with 5% Uber chance: 1.5 Ubers.
*5% Uber Chance without guaranteed Uber: 0.55 Ubers.
Therefore, spending Catfood on guaranteed 11-draws yields more Ubers than using them for 11-draws in EPICFEST. However, it is still a good idea to use Rare Tickets in this pool because they cannot be utilized for guaranteed 11-draws. Due to the higher Uber drop rate, using Rare Tickets on EPICFEST (alternatively, UBERFEST and SUPERFEST) obtains more Ubers.
Note that this maximizes the total number of Ubers obtained. If the objective is purely to pull a specific Uber, it is far more likely to get the desired Uber from the pool that the Uber is in. This is because despite the higher Uber drop rate, the number of Ubers is significantly larger in EPICFEST. To compare, the probability of pulling a specific Uber in EPICFEST from a single roll is 0.09% (with 100 Ubers in EPICFEST as of Version 12.5) while the probability in a usual pool is 0.5% (for a set with 10 Ubers having 5% Uber chance).
