It's all random, so players should not be bitter over what happens.

For example, our guild encountered Sagitarrius Pure twice so far. The first time, a guild mate found her, after killing a Fallen, and me and 1 other guild mate were a part of that previous battle and became a part of the Pure battle as well.

It just happened that I did the most damage and finished off Pure during that battle. Afterwards, all 3 of us got her.

I have Higoyumi, which increases the chance of encountering Pure. So for the second time, I was a part of a Fallen battle and then went out to play the story and I encountered Pure then. Only one other player was in the Pure battle with me and that player did the most damage and finished off Pure. Afterwards, that player got Pure and I only got a candy. LOL

I would have preferred a maga or something else, but there's nothing I can do about that, as it's all random. If I did more damage to her the second time, then maybe I would have increased my chances of getting her maga, but that should not have taken away the chance of my other guild mate from getting her. As in my first encounter, the 2 other guild mates who did less damage to her than me, also got her.

As the game info says, the chance of encountering and obtaining Pure and/or her maga is random. Dealing a lot of damage to her helps increase your chances of getting her or her maga, but it's not guaranteed. The only guaranteed 5-star cards you can get are the ones in towers with 100% negotiation rate and/or when you tarde a specified number of items for them.

For guild events, it has nothing to do with whether you are the one to find her or finish her off. It also has nothing to do with whether you already have one or not. And by having one already, it does not take away any chances from another player to get it. It's all random and based on luck.

I read some of the above comments and I just wanted to share my experiences. The discussion is good and I'm sure there are others out there who may have different experiences that may lead them to believe that there are other mechanics in place, but I believe that it's all random and there is nothing else in place, as I also doubt that Zynga would put that much more effort into the game's coding. From a time and profit perspective, it would be a waste of their time and resources to put in extra coding for more mechanics, as having more rules in place do not increase profits. Leaving things random and based on luck would be easier for them and would motivate players to spend and continue playing to try and get Pure.

Please feel free to comment and good luck in your guild events for both Fallen and Pure and/or their magas.
