Wow. 10k Medallions are a LOT of runs!

Someone extensively tested the Caches on the preview server and they roughly returned slightly over 1% purple Marks and slightly over 4% blue Marks. I would stay away or put them at the AH after the event has passed, because they then sell for more than their actual value.

3 wolves, would have been nice to get an Orc companion, replace that useless ghost warrior or cleric since I'm not paying for the tiefling one.

I am devastated that these skirmishes could all rinse and repeat. I am a collector, I sit on the rewards from these events. Companions and BoE equipment, till there's hardly any left in AH and then sell. I sat on 4 Armored Orc Wolfs until they finally started selling for over 500k AD each, I was just 2 days away from putting all 4 up and then !*BAM !**!* Orc Wolfs were going for 40k AD. So yeah... the thought of all skirmishes repeating with same rewards as last time will certainly change the long time future of all the collectors like me. I've got tons of stuff I'd sit on for year, but now... It seems truly pointless? Perhaps they just didn't have any ideas for content that week. ! I'm hoping like hell for the sake of my sanity that someone replys back, telling me this was a 1 time fluke....

Sorry guys, to rant. I am in shock and super bummed.

ADD: I got Armored OrcWolf on my 1st run for this refried event.

And you know what? Every person who missed these events the first time around and was delighted to get a shot at it themselves? Completely disagrees with your perspective.

You're not "a collector" if you're hoarding event items to sell at enormous profit later. Sorry.

This. I loled. Devastated that you can't hoard and make a nice bit of AD quite as easy as before? We all feel really bad for you.

Between last year and this year, I've picked up 4 companions through this event and given three of them away to friends who weren't as lucky. You know why? Because THEY are collectors, they like to have a stable full of companions to tinker with and work towards full sets of things.

Hahaa I agree , I wouldn't mind but the person is complaining even though the price rose to over 500k each at one point , serves them right for being so greedy xD
