    I think it's stupid, nice scheme to make everyone buy tons of these packages for something that might never come. Also them doing this drops prices on Zen Shop items (items in the packages), They don't care about the game really its all bout the money. They really need to figure out how long people are gonna keep paying for Zen Items before everyone gives up because of the outrageous prices. Kind of off topic there sorry :P, Ya I've heard of people buying tons of these packages and getting nothing. The package description makes it seem as if you 100% get one and that its in there, They should add 'VERY POOR CHANCE OF GETTING...'. They outta fix the odds or add some odds..

    Theres only been one seen so far. So they are infact out there and it seems like a .1% chance of getting it. They just added the mount, gave it a flashy advertisment and said here buy this $16 item for a chance to get it. Typically people would think, ookay if I got ten of these, which some people did, I am going to atleast get one of them. But they didnt. The odds for you to get this thing are ridiculously slim damn near none.

    EDIT: My guild leader has seen it, I personally havent but he has a picture of him next to it. Thus the reason I can say there is atleast one on the server. But thats one out of the millions of packs that where bought yesterday.

    I remember seeing Deity from Lost City say that he got 5 Lions from $1000 spent. That's roughly 1 Lion every 12.5 Gold Packs.

    $1000 spent just to get 5 pixelated Lions? Wow. Gotta give it to PWI though, Goodjob on the latest scheme.

    ok... i think you guys are going a bit too far now, first of all take into consideration how many people play this game, do you think they will make it so easy everyone could get one? it wouldnt be a chance of one then it would be a garantee, wich its not.

    and second, are you blaming the staff for your own actions? no one MADE you pay anything, you did what you chose to do KNOWING it was not a garantee, so before you bash on the people making sure you still have a game to play even through the rudeness, take some to put together your own actions, if your not willing to gamble for somthing and lose, then dont, and if you do dont complain if you didnt win.

    Lol, In my opinion you got some good points but when it comes to REAL MONEY some people want an idea on what the odds are before spending there money. Personally the Halloween event was easier because you could pay ingame coins not RL cash, So to be honest they should give some idea on what the odds are on getting this egg. Also note in the description of the package on Boutique it mis-leads some people making them think they WILL get the egg. Im sure it'd frustrate anyone spending RL money when for all they know.. only 2 people got it so far, Sounds kinda odd to me.

    It needs to be at least a 10% chance, i didnt cash shop but bought two packs in game for nothing and feel terrible for those who spent enough real money. Havent seen one yet on Lost City.

    You always get an egg, the egg just doesn't always include the lion. So, if you read it correctly, it does not mislead.

    Only Shinzoko from Lost City has the Lion Mount. It was annouced. However, from rumors I'm told, I heard he had 300 boxes, sold a few, so do the math lol.

    All over the world Casino's are packed with those who 'believe' they can beat the odds and pour their cash into the casino's. No matter what you may fondly believe, this is not a consequence free world we live in. If you choose to spend money on the Chance to get an item, then you are gambling.
    As an added bonus, each Charm Pack also comes with one Rainbow Egg (a Big Egg for Gold Packs or a Small Egg for Bronze Packs) that contains a random item! Within these eggs most players will receive either Buff Charms or Gear Socketable Gems, but there is a slight chance of winning rare mounts or pets. For example, if you purchased a Big Rainbow Egg you may find yourself the winner of the unique and fierce Goldmane Lion Lord mount! And within each Small Rainbow Egg, buyers have the chance of winning the cuddly and adorable Snow Hare pet!

    The Rainbow Egg is guaranteed, but they make it plain that the chance of getting the mount or pet is 'slight', nobody lied to you.
    Perhaps the greatest secret to getting along with others lies in learning to respect their opinion(s) even while you disagree with them.

    All they care about is making money so I'm sure we'll see the mount in the shop soon for everyone to buy, like what they did with nightmare. And when the expansion comes out, there might be better looking mounts so people will spend more money.

    You're probably right, most experienced players have predicted this as well and PWI's history is against them. They'll remove it soon and then shortly after it'll go in the cash shop, resulting in lots of whining from people silly enough to waste money attempting to get a lion now.

    And the best part is that this there are still plenty of mounts to come..

    However, according to a GM a couple weeks ago, upon a question about Midnight in the cash shop. They stated it wouldn't be in the cash shop anytime soon. Which means it merely has time to come out. But since the packs will seem to stay, the lion mount probably won't come to the cash shop.

    However, I believe it is a .1% from what another site said. I have yet to see anyone on it. But I'm sure at least one person has it.

    That's a good point, but they could just remove the lion mount from the packs. In fact, they might even use the packs as their easy way of slowly releasing whatever their new release is at the time, for example, it could be one way to get phoenix feathers when the legendary pets are released.

    Its funny how people think they are being ripped off.

    Farm 1.8 mil coins. Turn that into gold buy a pack. Have your chance at the eg and RE-SELL the charms. 5 golden charms = you making around 1.8mil back to try again. Think logical before you complain -.-

    Also depends on the gold prices and how patient you're willing to be. As of right now on Lost City, the majority of sellers want to sell for 140k+. And majority of buyers up to 135k.

    What I've noticed after special events is that the items end up in the Cash Shop afterwards, at which point they end up in the game (albeit for a couple million coins). I mean, Wings of Daedalus, Israfel, and Nakir's Judgement were all event mounts weren't they? And now they are in the cash shop, and all over the game for about 3-4mil...

    No LOL.

    That S> 5 lion mounts was a joke. I only ended up buying around 200 boxes but no mount yet.

    yes i truly agree, just another pocker bulger from pwi, ppl, bring an event to get everyone sill with excitement to buy heaps n heaps of pack in the hope they might get 0.0000001 % chance to get a lion mount, "sarcasm" i never bought any, and not real whatsit about weather i get a lion or not, my veno has a panther, and is very happy with it, and until way later levels in game , i think that will be about the only time i use the cash shop
    now i wamt to make a suggestion or obversation the winged swan was a halloween % thing, if im wrong correct me about that, and then little while later became a buyable mount on boutique, so im wondering after the cooldown of the event when none want to spend reall dollars buying more pack anymore, they might just make it a buy mount in bourtique......... O.o
