How much would you be willing to pay for metallic dragonborn.

Just out of interest (and to maybe give an idea to the devs). If metallic dragonborn were put into the Zen store instead of being a lockbox drop, how much would you be willing to pay for them?

Alone (with a reroll token similar to the Dragonborn Bundle)?
As a goodie pack (As/similiar to the Dragonborn Legend Pack)?
As ultimate dragonborn bundle with both dragonborn races?

    Last I heard their bonuses are broken, so zero. If they worked maybe 10-20, but I'd really debate it since I already have dragonborn.

    IF the metallic dragonborn will be put into Zen store as the best lockbox drop then they should also put into Zen store all legendary mounts from previous lockboxes.
    IF this happen (doesnt matter if only dragonborn or mounts also) i will buy it/them for sure and then i am OK with any Zen price cos it is basically for free if is obtainable via ingame currency without need of real money spending.

    But be reallistic, it will never happen. Lockboxes (Ench Keys) are one of the best Cryptic´s income and also the highest AD->Zen sink.

    I would pay $10 - $20 for any individual race, but I would never pay the money for those collections. If they sold races individually I would be all over that but I essentially never have $60 - $100 just laying around that I can dump on a game, and even if I did I would rather buy a full game for it.

    Nothing, because I am not bothered about having one, Classes I tend to take one of every type but am not a min-maxer so have no need for either dragonborn, race simply isn't important enough to me for me to pay for. Plenty else to support the game by buying :)

    Nothing. I loathe the dragonborn race. It's one of the few races I dislike in Faerun. Draconics.. now that's a race I'd pay for, provided the racial traits remain true to DnD.

    I guess you mean Draconians? Yeah I would prefer them too. But they are Krynn, not Fearun (and it doesn't cound that the RoT Storyline was stolen from Krynn).

    I really hope that the metallic dragonborn will be available in the Zen store eventually, even if that means all Lockbox openers (all 5 of them) will scream bloody murder. I like the looks.
    I wonder how well this experiment (race in lockbox) is doing?

    Well, let's see here. The ones that show up in the AH, usually for 17000000 AD (ie ~$350), fly off the shelves. I see tons of Dragonforged Lockbox award messages. So, people have told Cryptic in no uncertain terms that we, the playerbase, resoundingly overwhelmingly definitively definitely want more races hidden behind lockboxes. So, expect more of this in the future.

    Honestly I wouldn't be surprised to see classes/paragon paths etc. inside lockboxes in the future.

    That said, the fact that Dragonborn are banned from using 99% of the head slot visuals pisses me off quite a bit. I would love to see proper Draconians, but given how awful the tieflings are with clipping issues, I wouldn't expect much from them.

    Nothing. The fact that they put a playable race in a lotto box was a pretty crappy thing to do. The chromatic Dragonborn are enough for me, and I'm not completely happy with them either. They feel rushed and unpolished, especially when they were supposed to be the selling point of a very expensive pack.

    Oh yeah, on this point and while I'm complaining about the Dragonborn head slots, how about the fact that they have zero racial quests as well?

    Personally, I am very happy with the current dragonborn that I have. I wouldn't pay anything for metallic simply because I wouldn't use it. heh

    I won't be original, nothing. Tbh I find their shiny scales kinda over the top, I like chromatic ones better - and I got those only because they came with an account unlock bag.

    I'd pay $5 for a shiny reskin with color variations available for my dragonborn. That's about it. I hope I get one from a lockbox someday so I can finance my everything else.

    Zero.

    Fix the game before asking me to pay.

    I would probably pay about 20$ or so the typical price of a zen shop card. I love my Dragonborn Character but I would love Metallic if only for sentimental reasons as I used to play a Silver Scaled Dragonborn Sorcerer in my old D&D compaign in highschool.

    Don't insult me with blatant greed and mind games designed to exploit psychological weaknesses in people.

    Just as a fair warning, this didn't post in the forum you meant to post it in. I mean, I assume so anyway, because I can't imagine how you don't associate those attributes with Cryptic. :P

    well once they fix the +3% hp and then implement the changes to regen/lifesteal. They may be BiS for tanks specifically the new paladin which gives damage based on HP. If so this might be the cheapest you see the metallic dragon born

    Just with a reroll token, probably 20$ or so.

    In a pack of similar value to the other dragonborn pack, likely 100$.
    Neverwinter players are stubborn things....until you strip them down to bone. (Cursed players, my flowers, MINE!) Oh how I plotted their demise.

    yeah, them lockboxes are the best scam i have seen in video games. The more i open them the more i get disapointed. I sometimes have to take time off game to recoop on the amount of money that i have lost. I miss when it was a for sure thing and also miss having End game items that you can work up for. Its liek games have become into a chase game. Why fight to keep up ? worthless to even try.

    Seems like the interest is waning. At least the price in the AH is.

    They should just be included with the dragonborn pack. Nothing more than additional skins and a slightly different bonus. Currently not interested in it, getting bored of the limited customization features of the DB race.

    Actually the price got down to 8.4 million during the very first cluster of these that were posted. So, no, the prices haven't actually really changed at all.
