Capturing Red and Yellow Astros

In this post, I would be sharing only 1 thing: how to capture yellow and red Astros.

First of all, do take a look at the Astros I have

 In the first glance, I only have 5 reds and 6 yellows, it doesn't seem a lot. I only played for 2 months.
And some of the reds I already have duplicates, not to mention the yellows.


However for those players in my server, if you ever check out the world chat, you would have realised I would be receiving at least 2-3 yellows everyday consistently. Yes to many, it may be deemed to luck.

Anyway, just read on.

What should you do?

Your objective is to make yellow and red Astros appear in the astro panel.
The very first thing to remember is not to click One-click Capture.

What are the stuff the appear in the astro panel: misfortune, green, blue, purple, yellow and red astro.

The earliest a purple can appear on the astro panel is when your light goes from circle 2 to circle 3.
The earliest a yellow can appear on the astro panel is when your light goes from circle 3 to circle 4.
The earliest a red can appear on the astro panel is when your light goes from circle 4 to circle 5.

A higher astro (purple or yellow) the appears when the light shifts from circle 4 to 5, the possibility of obtaining a yellow or red would be higher.

How to have a higher chance of circles lighting up?
1. Do your own clicks
2. Anaylse what happens
3. If you can, just download a free video screen recording software, which records what happens on your screen, play it back and you see the sequence even better.
4. It is never a requirement for all your circles from circle 1 to 5 to be lighted up before you can obtain a better astro.

If you need yellow or red astro, it is obvious you need either circle 4 or circle 5 to be lighted up first.
In order to do that, you need the light to travel from 2-3 and 3-4

This is the part whereby you will need some patience. Look at the astro panel when clicking the circles. Circle 1 to 2 would be your testing area for determining which astro/astros (may be more than 1 type each other) appearing on the top panel, can have a higher chance of the light shifting from circle to circle.

For example, if a sniper edge appears and the light shift from circle 1 to 2, the next time sniper edge appears, click the lighted  circle 3,4 ot 5

Some ask what happens with misfortune, check if this sequence works for you when you restart everything from circle 1.

1. click circle 1 (misfortune appears on astro panel, and circle 2 is lighted up)
2. click circle 1 again (misfortune appears on astro panel, circle 2 is still lighted up)
3. click circle 2 (misfortune appears on astro panel, and circle 3 is lighted up)
4. click circle 1 again (misfortune appears on astro panel, circle 3 is still lighted up)
5. click circle 3 (misfortune appears on astro panel, and circle 4 is lighted up)
