Quick Answer

Use the Luck Simulator as a planning tool, not a guarantee. Enter your current buffs, choose one target slime, compare expected rolls and time, then decide whether a potion or rebirth push is worth using before you start rolling.

Contents

The Luck Simulator is one of the most powerful tools available to Slime RNG players. Instead of blindly spending Goop on rolls, you can use the simulator to calculate your exact odds, plan your luck setup, and predict how many rolls you'll need for a specific slime. This guide covers everything from basic usage to advanced strategies.

What is the Luck Simulator?

The Luck Simulator on SlimeRNG.app models the public luck inputs used by the site. You input your current luck multiplier, active potions, and target slime, then compare probability per roll, expected rolls, ETA, and session forecasts. Treat results as estimates because live game balance can change.

Reading Simulator Results

  1. 1
    Probability Per Roll
    This is your chance of getting the target slime on any single roll. Higher luck = higher probability. A 0.01% chance means 1 in 10,000 rolls on average.
  2. 2
    Expected Rolls
    The average number of rolls needed to get the slime. This is 1 ÷ probability. If your chance is 0.01%, you'll need ~10,000 rolls on average.
  3. 3
    Median Rolls
    The number of rolls where 50% of players will have succeeded. This is usually lower than the expected rolls due to how probability distributions work.
  4. 4
    Distribution Chart
    The bell curve shows the spread of outcomes. A wide curve means high variance (you might get lucky early or need many more rolls). A narrow curve means more consistent results.
  5. 5
    Luck Comparison
    The simulator shows side-by-side comparisons of different luck setups. Use this to decide if a Luck Potion is worth using for your target slime.

Best Simulator Strategies

calculate
Calculate Before Rolling
Always run a simulation before spending Goop on a major roll session. Knowing you need ~5,000 rolls helps you plan how much Goop to save.
compare
Compare Luck Setups
Use the comparison feature to see how much a Luck Potion actually improves your odds. Sometimes the improvement is marginal; other times it's game-changing.
trending_up
Find Your Break-Even Point
The simulator can tell you at what luck level a Luck Potion becomes "worth it" for your target slime. This prevents wasting potions on easy rolls.
schedule
Time Your Sessions
Use the simulator to estimate how long a roll session will take. If you need 10,000 rolls and can do 100/minute, that's ~100 minutes of active play.

Advanced Tips

💎 The "Dry Spell" Calculator

The simulator includes a dry spell calculator that shows the probability of going X rolls without success. If you've been rolling for a long time without luck, this tool can tell you whether you're just unlucky or if something is wrong with your setup.

  • Compare one target at a time so you can see which buff actually changes your expected time
  • Check the underlying slime odds on the Wiki page before trusting an old saved setup
  • Use the Share Build URL when you want to keep a setup or send it to another player
  • Re-run the estimate after major updates because live game balance and source data can change
  • Treat long ETAs as a warning to improve luck first instead of forcing a low-probability session
