Familiar Gacha Economy System Create a Machinations economy diagram for a Familiar progression system with two independent progression layers: Familiar acquisition and rank progression Ability optimization through rerolling and tier upgrades The diagram should focus on resource flow, sources, sinks, converters, and final player goals. Resource Sources Create resource sources for: Free to play and Premium These sources generate two currencies: Currency 1 Egg Tokens Currency 2 Ability Stones Represent both as separate resource pools. Familiar Acquisition Loop Egg Tokens are spent to perform Egg Pulls. Use a Drain node to consume Egg Tokens. Use a Converter node called: "Open Eggs" The converter generates Familiar rewards. Familiars are distributed by rarity: Common Rare Epic Legendary Store each rarity in its own Familiar Pool. Familiar Rank Progression Familiars can be ranked up. Ranks are: Unlock / Rank 1 Rank 1 to Rank 2 -> Any same rarity Familiar Rank 2 to Rank 3 -> Any same rarity Familiar of the same element Rank 3 to Rank 4 -> Same Familiar Rank4 to Rank 5 -> 3 of the Same Familiar Represent ranking up as a chain of Converter nodes: Rank Up → Rank 2 Rank Up → Rank 3 Rank Up → Rank 4 Rank Up → Rank 5 Final output: Rank 5 Familiar Ability Optimization Loop: Make sources for Ability stone as F2P and Premium Ability Stones are stored in an Ability Stone Pool. Ability Stones are consumed through an Ability Reroll converter. Each reroll generates an Ability. Abilities are categorized by Rank: Rank 2 Ability Rank 3 Ability Rank 4 Ability Rank 5 Ability Ability availability expands with Familiar Rank. Higher ranks unlock additional ability pools. The player always seeks the highest available ability rank. Represent this as a progression chain ending in: Rank 5 Ability Ability Tier System After an Ability is generated, a second roll determines Ability Tier. This is independent from Ability Rank. Represent this as a second Converter: "Roll Ability Tier" Possible tiers: C Tier B Tier A Tier S Tier Use Gates to enforce rarity restrictions. Common Familiar Allowed tiers: C B Rare Familiar Allowed tiers: C B A Epic Familiar Allowed tiers: C B A S Legendary Familiar Allowed tiers: B A S The player always targets the highest possible tier. Final output: Optimal Tier Ability Pity System Epic and Legendary abilities use a pity counter. Every reroll increments a Pity Counter register. After 20 failed rerolls: The next reroll is guaranteed to produce an ability from the target ability pool. The pity affects Ability Rank generation. Tier generation still occurs afterward. Represent the Pity Counter as a Register connected to the Ability Reroll converter. Final Player Goal The final progression goal is: Rank 5 Familiar + Rank 5 Ability + Highest Available Tier These three outputs are combined through a final Converter: "Max Familiar" Final output node: Maxed Familiar Diagram Style Use standard Machinations notation: Sources = Source Nodes Currencies = Pools Spending = Drains Transformations = Converters Restrictions = Gates Counters = Registers Layout should clearly separate: Familiar Progression Path (left side) Ability Optimization Path (right side) Both paths should converge into the final Maxed Familiar output node.
