Posting this in its own separate topic so it's easier to find in searches.

A lot of people don't know if it's cheaper to buy feathers/SoF from cat shops/auction house, or if they should convert gold and buy the packs themselves.

If you calculate the probabilities, the battle pet packs average 26.8 each according to pwdatabase. My experience matches the pwdatabase figures (26.9 and 26.7 for my herc and phoenix).

There's a 2% transaction fee for buying gold. And 1 gold will get you two packs. So the average cost per feather/SoF works out to:

(gold_price * 1.02) / (2*26.8)

So for the following gold prices, the corresponding price per individual feather/SoF is:
(Stealing Brael's formatting)
Gold Price	Normal Price (50 silver per pack)	Sale Price (40 silver per pack)	Sale Price (30 silver per pack)

Example: Say you can buy gold for 438k (list price at the auctioneer). Look at 438k on the above chart and you see the corresponding SoF/feather prices are 8,335 and 6,668 and 5,001.

If there is no sale, that means buying the battle pet packs with gold means on average you're paying 8,335 coin per SoF/feather. If you see it priced for less on a cat shop, you're better buying it from that shop. If you see it priced for more, on average you will be better off buying the gold and getting the battle pet packs yourself. I say on average because you could get lucky or unlucky while opening the packs.

If pet packs are on sale for 40 silver each (instead of the normal 50 silver), then the magic number is 6,668 coin per SoF/feather.

If pet packs are on sale for 30 silver each, then the magic number is 5,001 coin per SoF/feather.

Usually the cheapest way is to buy gold from the auctioneer and buy the packs yourself. If you've never bought gold from the auctioneer before, try these references:
http://pwi-wiki.perfectworld.com/index.php/Gold_trading
http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=236351

If the price of gold is over 1 million, just start at 100,000 and multiply all the numbers by ten.

    Damn... my averages for my legendary pets were no where near the 26.8/pack. I got 22 avg and 23 average, for herc and nix respectively.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    Wait, so is it cheaper to buy catshop/auction house or with gold?

    Check the price of gold, and look it up on the chart. If the price of SoF/feathers at a cat shop/in the auction house is cheaper than the price listed, on average it's cheaper to buy from there; if over, it's cheaper (on average) to buy gold to buy pet packs.

    I'll bump this for the informative post detailing battle packs vs. buying POF/SF outright.

    Even when I bought my herc ~ 22M over a year ago it turned out packs would have been cheaper. Wish I had found a guide like this.

    Ah thanks ^_^

    That was actually really handy, but for plenty a time the hoarders of the PF's / SoF's keep the prices at a solid 7500-9999 coins price each :l

    A bit ridiculous really.

    Solandri, maybe you should extend the table now that gold price ceiling has increased.

    Solandri, maybe you should extend the table now that gold price ceiling has increased.
    I already added a comment regarding that before I left for the holidays. For gold prices over 1 million, you simply multiply all the prices in a row by 10 (add a zero at the end of each number).

    I'm reluctant to lengthen the table because the post is already really long by forum post standards (nearly 30 kb). If it were formatted as a regular post, it'd be over 20 pages long.

    I would add that the more packs you buy the accuracy of the ratio increases.

    For example buying 100 packs will give you a more accruate ratio than buying 50.

    The reason being that there are 5 different denomination possibilities of SoF/PF per pack which can really mess with the accuracy of the ratio with a low number of packs

    I opened 424 packs last night and my ratio was about 27.5 SoF/PF per pack.

    Last year I bought 40 packs and the ratio was about 22 to 23 SoF/PF per pack.

    ~Edited~ Just opened another 492 packs today. Got 13330 SoF/PF which is averaged to about 27.1 per pack.
    I **** bigger than you...

    Shut up and play the game.....Damn

    While the formula on the first post remains accurate, the chart itself hasn't applied to us for a while now.

    I considered making a new Legendary pet guide since the sticky we have is pretty outdated too (and thus replace it) but I don't want to end up hogging all the sticky spots b:surrender

    It'd be fine. TBH, I feel a good few of the current stickies are kinda outdated but still have handy information and/or could easily be combined so the veno section isn't like General Discussion was for a while with 27579278529571814914814891 stickies and 2 non-stickied topics.

    I can add a link to this thread from the useful links, calling out the formula in particular. Altho it might be better to generalize it for all veno related cash shop items (legendary pets x4, cages, etc).

    Discussed with Kossy and I'll put together a general pet guide that will include all the stuff from this thread, the legendary thread and the pet numbers thread to clean up this section a little. Links, credits and such will be provided but it'd be good if you add the links too.

    I'll keep an eye out for it and add it to the useful links page once you're done. I'll probably remove any of the pet links you use from the UL page too, since we're nearing 30 links for the pet section.
