and just exclude the immediately duplicate from the re-roll pool, re-instate it as soon as you re-roll

I don't have the figures so I'm just feelycrafting here but excluding a mission up to 4 times potentially leaves it too open to rerolling and stacking certain missions again.

I definitely like the idea though, I too am fed up of rerolling kill 54,124,217,543,922 players 593 times in a row. ;)

I just rerolled a mission 4 times today because I didn't like it, but I kept getting the same mission in 4 consecutive rerolls. The reroll's function is to allow the player to get a NEW mission that is different from the current one, because why else would you want to reroll a mission other than because you do not want to do it?

The Solution:

• Add a Diminishing Probability Cap. When rerolling the mission, you 100% cannot get that same mission. On the second reroll, the mission would have a 75% chance of not appearing. Then, on the third reroll, it will have a 50% chance of not appearing. Then 25%, and eventually have it back in the mission pool completely.

I believe that this is what was missing during the early implementation of the Missions update, where players were able to "exploit" the game's reroll mechanic to gain an absurd amount of highly rewarding missions.

This is in reference to HERPSAC's suggestion under the Bug Report Category.

 

Thank you for your time!

Why not just remove the initial one from the pool? Problem solved whike keeping the purpose same

Because that definitely makes it too easy to stack certain missions.

This has reached the threshold, adding it to my queue.

Id like to see a similar mechanic to the expeditions. Select a mission provider and you get an 80% chance to get a mission from that person. Maybe in the spirit of fairness make legendary 5% epic 10% rare 20% uncommon 25% common 40%. You still get a point drain but people can get a better chance at the type of mission they want.
