Guide Horse's Breeding Prices

So @jpresent just told me my prices are correct but my calculations are wrong so I'll try to update them as soon as I can

 

So, where's the update?

 

I still don't see my mistakes and jp didn't point them out so I'm going to rule that out as we come from different backgrounds of mathematics

 

wat

 

The average cost of breeding a horse

 

Isn't the real price
Black: 1-3 le
Chestnut- 15-20 le
white-60-90 le

I'm autistic cause I'm not sure.

 

This thread is for the breeding price

 

I know. ;w;

 

It's ok, a lot of people get confused by numbers

 

So I worked out the price of a black horse using some Algebra and a graphing calculator, and I found that it would cost 240 EB before subtracting brown horses, just as you calculated. I didn't try the Chestnut Horse or White Horse and I won't unless you would like me too.

(This may have been asked but) is it wise to deduct the costs of brown horses from the total costs? I find it unlikely that anyone would be actually selling brown horses, much less for the same price sold in Ternaves.

 

People used to sell them pre gavel just for the lulz but you have to subtract the cost anyway because it's the breeding price

 

But like you're investing (on average) 240 EB to get a black horse. Yeah, you also end up having 4 brown horses, but since if you can't sell them you don't get any emeralds back for those, they myaswell not exist. So in the end you've basically spent 240 EB to breed a black horse, so that's pretty much your breeding price.
I get where you're going with the true breeding price, but practically it's not going to cost you 144 EB to breed a black horse, it's gonna cost you 240.

 

I'm using 10 horses to start it but for the blacks you can also do it with 6
After breeding the 6 you'll have 3, then you breed again so you have 2, breed again and you statistically should have a black.

 

Oh... of course! You can reuse old brown horses for more breeding... why did I not realize that sooner lol I'm so stupid.
So nvm your calculations are all perfectly correct.

 

Awesome just got my first horse... im behind the modern people i see

 

Unless you’re unlucky and all ten horses go one tier lower :>

 

What does luck have to do with it

 

If you breed 10 black horses, getting a brown horse doesn’t decrease the chances of the other horses becoming brown too, so you could end up with all browns remaining if luck of the draw isn’t on your side.

 

Statistics
I calculated the average price

 

@Yuno F Gasai
Your saying if I wanted to breed horses till I get a white horse not racist I would have to buy on average
317.25 BLACK HORSES again.. not racist
