    Its no need to work for your gear. Just wait and buy it... Sad.. really sad..
    Anniversary packs for 3 months and now this.. Whats the point? Buying everything you can get in the cash shop is lame. Im glad im lvl 100 now so I dont have to waste my time on getting gear. Ofc I got a lot of anniversary packs things and I cant really complaint that much, but I feel really sorry for the lower lvls who dont spend any RL cash with crazy gold prices and charm prices, its probably worse now then ever... Quit sale for equipment please, keep the mounts, fashion, charms and all that ****. But gear should be so ppl can enjoy the game and work for it... b:angry
    Pride comes before a fall! b:bye

    I saw in another thread that the anni packs are being removed next Tuesday. Where does it say that, officially I mean? I am going to miss them. b:sad I loved the tokens.

    I'll believe that when I see it. And even if they do remove them, they will be replaced by the Black Friday packs, which I'm sure will remain in-game passed Black Friday.

    So, the amusing thing to me is, the irony of the name.

    The "anniversary" pack: available in the CS for well longer than what one would think appropriate for celebrating any anniversary.

    The "Black Friday" pack: available in the CS for over month, before the "official" Black Friday, and well after the winter holiday so many are shopping for on Black Friday.

    Perhaps my understanding of why these packs are called "Black Friday Boxes" was flawed, as I thought "Black Friday" was The big one day sale the day after Thanksgiving. So I'm thinking "Self, once again, what a terrible misnomer for these gamble boxes." That is, until I had a look at Wiki and saw the OTHER "Black Fridays." The Wall Street Crash of 1929 (because of the time difference called "Black Friday" in Europe), or in 1869 'a financial panic ... caused by .. speculators' efforts to corner the gold market.'

    And now I say, how apropos! Black Friday, indeed. b:surrender

    Not calling you a liar at all. Spoons say how long the Black Friday packs will be in for? I just can't imagine the game going to having no packs in it at all. Ah, memories of the good old days. Back when everyone could afford to have an equal chance at getting good stuff.

    <----Playing Devil's Advocate:


    Lunar and Frost and the like though no longer have any meaning.

    Would it not seem that these packs are **** over the higher levels? What is there to work for? This because now you can gamble and hope to get end game items with as much as a click.

    Example --> Takes 30 days (without COF) and millions to farm a Cube Neck in advanced cube. So, now what is the point if you have the $$ to buy the packs?

    Those who cannot charge or whom are unwilling to charge.....where does that leave them?

    Although I am not sure I can say that I agree with you 100%, I can say that it is just about true.

    IMO, it would not be much of an issue had the 2x drop rate nerfed the prices of HH mats....a main source of income for many.

    I dunno.......I know a guildie who farmed HH for MONTHS for HH100 mats and then packs can out....I have never thought of evening having HH100 weapons, but now with enough coins (and if I would decide to charge) I could get the mats in one click -_-

    <--- not getting HH100 weapon unless something magical happens

    But I have an issue with "free" HH100 mats when the drop rate is so low. It is not meant to be "bought."

    Farming the other weapons are easy imo, especially once you get to the right levels....

    Dang so I wasted my carefuly writen reply to Roses.....

    Here is the summary.

    Rose, if by one click you mean 5000 clicks, I would have to say "you may have a point", since the tt100 mats only have a 0.02% chance of dropping from the packs.

    Since everytime you click you have a 0.02% chance, there is no guarantees that you would only have to open 5000 packs to get one of the mats, since there are 4 possible mats, to get the one you needed you would be looking at 20000 packs....... at least, unless you really lucky and get it on the first click. (same with boss drops, you would had been very lucky and gotten it the very first time you did that boss).
    Too often we loose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown, BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap that mother#$@%#^! upside the head.
