    Let it go. Devs will never let something so exploitable exist. That's why they "fixed" it. Their word is law. *shrug*

    Since when lockboxes are considered real content?

    WHY??... wouldn't that make you normal sized ??... basically canceling each other out... either or, back to the AH waiting for the costume pieces to slowly go down to "normal" pricing... 8D
  • jaazaniah1jaazaniah1 Posts: 5,543 Arc User
    Not really a big thing. That's just more of the same. It's nice to have tweaked power sets, better to have thoughtfully implemented new content!

    No no no, you see when you used the shrinker and the super mag together it was like having a few stacks of enrage growth so you were not a giant but bigger then normal and it was really useful for making toons without enrage a bit bigger.


    Ok i have a better pitch if you guys dont want to bring the shrink mag combo back at least make another one in the Z-store that makes you slightly bigger but not gigantic.

    Or maybe put few more feets in the Character Creator's height slider....

    Already suggested shortly after the devices were fixed. I think the devs said they would look into it?

    That won't do.

    If the slider is changed, a large amount of folks will immediately make their toons taller. The folks who want to have a toon taller than most others won't stand out.

    Changed the quality of the Swashbuckler costume item from purple to gold.

    Does this increase the rarity or reduce it?

    So this is the sword that comes with the 20 key pack? I thought it was the costume box you get from the lockbox.

    Put it this way....... the sword comes as an added extra when you buy the new key pack. It's not really a drop but more a free gift type of deal. You don't have to use any of the cosmic keys to get it, it comes with the pack.

    You mean it's the only reason to buy that new pack.

    No. It’s one of a bunch of reason to buy it. You also get mods and oh yeah...keys.

    Just an extra couple of reasons to buy it.

    yeah those bundles are cheaper than buying keys normally.

    No it's not, it's the same cost. A pack of 10 keys costs 900z in CO. The only difference is the bundle has extra stuff, in this case aside from the costume piece it's filled with a bunch of clutter.
  • ealford1985ealford1985 Posts: 3,582 Arc User
    But if you buy keys, they are a much better deal.

    You can sell the extra items and make some Gs, or use/unlock them if they are something you actually wanted (thereby saving yourself some Gs from buying them from others)..... thus making the pack cheaper in the long run than the 10 packs.

    Maybe because they had 2 packs relatively close together?

    Wouldn't it be cool if the new space/Nemesis content could only be unlocked for each customer by buying a key pack! ;)

    and i have seen that each time the stuff has gotten less useful and more just filler, i mean they did put a side kick in one a few times but now its not the case. with this last one they did not even put on in at all. But then again they did put out two for the fire revamp so maybe this next one will be back to the usual. Seeing as it is single blade maybe a rabbit Samurai or something kind of different like a stave fighter or a reformed Cult of The Red Banner who throws spears or something.

    No, that wouldn't be cool. They don't need more advice on how to make the game even more about wallet warriors and gambling.
