no? You don't refund the characters, that'd be pretty abusable.
All it does is fill it back up
okay, thanks.

Waiting for Jr and Morton/DK to show up for the moment. Not going give much of an effort for the Jr ranking with the high ends.My second 10 pull was pretty poor but at least I hit on Ludwig which'll help me with the ranked cup. Now to wait for Bowser Jr. to show up in the shop...
If you want to keep the sub to gold pass, spending the coins in gold characters seem the better option. For someone like me that will let the gold pass expire, im saving coins for the high-end characters.Annoying question with some annoying logic - I having been saving up coins to get to 12k on the off-chance one of the high-end characters I still need (Dry Bowser, Peachette) pop up in the shop. But if we assume the cups will follow a pattern moving forward, then I guess each new cup will have a High-End character in the Gold Pass presents like we did last time with Metal Mario and this time with Dry Bowser. And since we know spotlight characters aren't obtainable off-focus, then next cup will probably have Peachette. AND since spotlight characters can't appear in the shop, does it even make sense to save up anymore? Should I just buy Gold characters who I would be less likely to roll in the pipes anyway?
Basically, what are y'all doing with your coins and should I buy Rosalina who is staring at me intently today?
Just wanted to add I've seen two separate people on Reddit say they've seen Spotlight characters in the shop for 16,000.Annoying question with some annoying logic - I having been saving up coins to get to 12k on the off-chance one of the high-end characters I still need (Dry Bowser, Peachette) pop up in the shop.

Yeah my Pauline is doing not much at all for me at all this cup!Honestly I wouldn't waste 12,000 coins in a single High End Character when I could buy 4 Supers with that money, or even cheap vehicles to level up them and help me to raise my score...
I literally cleared out the entire pipe of all High-End stuff. Ended up with Peach (Kimono), Mario (Hakama), Quickshaw, Badwagon, Purple Oilpaper Umbrella, Cloud Glider, and a bunch of new Normal and Super stuff I needed.
Of course this completely drained me of every single ruby I had, and required a lot of grinding and use of Quick Tickets to earn even more rubies, all of which were spent on the pipe. I went big and I scored big, but it will take awhile before I can do that again.
Thankfully I won't need to pull on the second Tokyo pipe now. I hope Shy Guy (Chef) is the second featured character of the next tour so I can save up again.
Only hacking away my sanity and stash of rubies. I basically played for almost the entire day, squeezing every single spare ruby I could get.
I'd say slip stream. At least a rocket start bonus is guaranteed.Rocket start abilities seem to be the worst right? Like it benefits you once the entire race, not even that significantly, and if you can't manage to get and hold a combo off of it which is tough on a lot of tracks it's like a non-factor.
I've gotten one this whole tour so...how in the heck are we supposed to get the lightening one.... I think I only ever got it once out of 5 billion races. Also, the AI seems to be really cheap this tour. Seems like i am getting screwed near the end constantly and never had any issues prior tour or in the beta.
Try to hang out around 6th place constantly. The new lightning oilpaper glider increases your chances of getting one.how in the heck are we supposed to get the lightening one....

Do a track where you have a driver that can get 3 items and fuck up the rocket start and then just drift into walls the wrong way. That's what I did at least and it only took about 20 races, though I backed out of some if I got a bullet bill.I've gotten one this whole tour so...
...cross fingers and hope for the best?

Currently sitting pretty in first on my leaderboard with 21k point. I'm sure that won't last though as only 5 people on my board have started the ranked cup so far.
Hopefully Bowser Jr and/or the lightning oilpaper show up in my shop this week.
I just played Rainbow Road T and stayed in 8th for a few races. Took much less effort than hunting for super horns.how in the heck are we supposed to get the lightening one....

I picked Kalimari Desert with Morton (who gets 3 items), equipped the new lightning glider, and also kept veering off into the off-road areas whenever I could to slow myself down to 7 or 8th place. After a couple tries I had gotten enough lightning bolts to complete the challenge.
Only 8 people have started in mine and I'm somehow in first with my first run 15.7k. I can probably win if no one has The high ends.

That's not how that works. There's only one non-spotlight High-End character in the pipe. It doesn't matter if you got Dry Bowser or Hakama Mario: you're not getting any other non-spotlight High-End character out of that pipe unless you reset it.I'm desperate for Hakama Mario. I think I'm gonna save my Ruby's until next week when he's the Spotlight. I've already got Kimono Peach.
His appearance when he's Spotlight rises to 1.35% from 0.34%. Thing is, when he's Spotlight, if you get him once then you can't get him again. Whereas if he's not Spotlight, you can get him multiple times (0.34% each time).

If you want multiples to fill out his skill guage, you should still wait for the spotlight.
e:
basicall this is how pipes work, i think this is everything relevant
-There is a spotlight character, kart & glider. These are set in stone based on the pipe ie: Kimono Peach, Quick Shaw and Purple Oilpaper Umbrella. They have a little over 1% chance of showing up on a given pull. There is only one of these, per category, in the pipe so if you pull Kimono Peach then you'll never get another Kimono Peach out of the pipe unless you reset. They are guaranteed to be somewhere in that pipe if you keep pulling, it just no guaranteed when in those 100 pulls you'll get them. Resetting after pulling will let you get them again, following the same rules.
-There is 1 non-spotlight high end character, kart & glider you can pull at about .3% chance. While you are guaranteed to get your character, kart & glider if you keep pulling on the pipe, you cannot guarantee which one in each category you will get. If you pull Dry Bowser, then that's it, you cannot get Metal Mario, Peachette, Hakama Mario or another Dry Bowser without resetting the pipe.
-In contrast, the Super rarity has 9 characters, 7 karts and 4 gliders you can get. If you get Bowser, then you can keep getting Bowser up to 8 more times or you could get 8 different other characters. But once you pull 9 Super characters, that's it, you're not getting any more Super characters until you reset the pipe.
-The same applies to the 32 Normal characters, 26 normal karts and 16 normal gliders
These Tokyo tracks are lovely.Fuck
my desire for Mario Kart 9 has been gone for so long
this game is bringing back in full force
As a Dev that's made a Kart style racing game, what do you think of Mario Kart Tour?Was able to get Dry Bowser from the gold gifts before my free sub expired. Whoop!
