I opened over 1,300 boxes this sale and have opened that or more on some other box sales.
Unless you consistently open boxes, you really shouldn't call anyone "greedy" for what they want to charge on items they pay real $$$ for.

True, not greedy, more like addicted. :P
Anyway they either should make it possible to get it from CS or really increase the loot chance for those things, bcz imo, 1.3k boxes and only few mounts, for those money, isn't fair to the customer.

It took me 35,000 crystals to get my first Wraith this sale.
Another 30,000 crystals to get another.

Hang on,

You spent close on $750 for 2 mounts?

1) Why 2? (Please say it's for a second account rather than wanting to sell it)
2) I wish I had your level of disposable income :D. €650 is a hell of a lot of money to be spending on a digital proprietary item. Please tell me you converted some gold at least ;)

Cheers!

Lol, sheesh you guys must be lightweights over on the EU server.

I remember Mrbates spending ~$3,000/strongbox.

Either way, I got one for me and my fiancee.

It's nothing to do with lightweights :)

The EU has it's own versions of you guys :). It's just that in Europe, the cost of €650 varies a lot. For some it may be a days wages. For others, it could be a months wages. On average, it would be about 1 week/week and a half, but is still a sizeable amount for the average EU player. Most of us wouldn't be able to justify that sort of amount on something so intangible. ;)

Very noble, or she has you wrapped around her little finger :D. Either way, I'm sure it'll be steak and something else night soon ;).

Cheers!

ps. You can buy CC in Boutique and yet you don't see everyone with lvl 13 runes.


Sure, but runes cost a ton. Had the game's prices been the same as in RU, you'd have every moderate cash shopper run around with 13s. What is stopping people is the cost of these runes, versus the effect 13s have versus 12s. I mean, it costs more than twice as much to get 13s than to get 12s, and the actual damage increase you get from this one runes level is about 1%. The difference between 12s and 13s is almost irrelevant if we do not count the weapons skin, but the cost is far from irrelevant.

To be fair, she always says she doesn't want it. Then I hear her later in the day after having the mount making "vroom vroom" sounds and I know she enjoys it. So I'm guessing a little bit of both (noble/whipped).

Hello,

Ofcourse it has to do with luck. As an example. If you buy 100 Strongboxes for 10.000 Crystals, the Chance that you get a Mount is pretty high. Because you have 100x the chance to drop it, but it's definitely not garantueed.





Wraith was about 10x chance to get while the Pegasus was about 200x.



Up the chances to get the dang battle mounts. I am personally boycotting the strongboxes till they up the drop rates.
