    I can see the only use for the egg tickets is to on-sell to current venos. As previously indicated considering the cost involved, if i had the money for a nix Id have one already, but I dont. So they're going to have to be cheap enough if you want to sell them. I cant imagine anyone is rolling a veno these days anyway since the mystics came about.

    What I find more funny about the news thread to advertise the packs, is the picture of the fire fairy pet. Seriously you make one for 200k anyway? Surely no one actually would buy a pack to try and get one of those things.

    Apart from that, bring on the sales because that means cheaper tokens and therfore cheaper Herb Yuanxiao/Crab Meat for us all.

    Oh and as for the thread title. My veno is 84 with a herc, and my favourite char atm, and I couldnt care less these tickets are in the packs.

    Why is it that it's mostly non-venos posting angrily, and mostly herc/nix venos shrugging and saying "so?"

    I'm kinda outraged on behalf of those poor venos who toiled to save up for their hercs, and I'm sure we'll be seeing tickets pop up in the cash shop much more often... but I highly doubt they'll be much more affordable. b:surrender

    What i want to know is why people waste so much time complaining over a GAME! I bet half these venomancers who spent 200$ on these pets couldve actually bought something more better outside of this bull**** :P I love perfect world. But I'm not going to waste real money on a game, nor an item worth 200$ .... I highly doubt your gonna play PW all your life and hold on to that pet forever, So it's kind of a waste of money and to flip out over it is just ridiculous.


    I spent $60 to go see Iron Maiden in concert a while back. But I spent three hours there and returned home. Same thing goes for folks who spend money on this game, it's an experience and they get the most out of it by being the strongest and having the nicest stuff. The way I see it though, spending your cash just to get better gear in a video game breaks down a healthy barrier that should lie between video games and real life. Games should be played as a diversion, an enjoyable way to pass time, and when people pay money to cut corners and speed up the process of obtaining things that can already be obtained in-game, it's an indicator that they don't enjoy the game enough to keep their gaming experience contained in the game. Like I said though, PW is an experience for everyone, and some of us take it far more serious than others, so to each his own.
    That being said, yeah I'm a bit anti-cash shop because I feel it breaks down a healthy barrier between reality and video games (like I mentioned above), -but- I'm not complaining because I'm broke or anything (Lv. 68 Mystic w/ a net worth of over 75,000,000 coins and I haven't spent a dime on this game)

    Upset about it? No.

    I would, however, be really happy if there was a free Barb in the packs.

    Think about it. You're doing FCC or something, and a Veno comes in, and summons a Barb. Then Squad buffs with it, and uses it to actually tank. Shouldn't even require a squad slot, just a pet spot. That would be epic. Would be nice of clerics could heal it too. I'd name mine huggles. Best thing would be if you could make it so Clerics could have one as well.

    Knowing how PWI jacks around with drop rates, I doubt we'll see many of these. And seeing how venos tend to NOT drop 100 mil + at one point on one item, even if it's a herc or nix, these are going to have to sell for really cheap, or they won't get sold at all.

    I'll buy a Herc ticket for cheap. But I'm not really going to waste my time leveling a herc up when I already have a Nix to do just that on.

    i can understand your frustration, however instead of being upset at everyone else's good fortune it would be better to be happy for them and try to find a little good fortune in the situation for yourself.

    i would also be upset, but on the other hand you just got a car that to you was worth 30k to you at the time, so even if you aren't as ahead as you could be or would like to be, you are still ahead.

    Dear OP,

    You are one in three people who believes that they can speak on the opinions of everyone. This is a dangerous disease (Some believe it's hereditary) and I believe that it would be in your best interest (and the interest of everyone else) to seek immediate medical attention.

    Remember, you can only speak for yourself and opinions are based on the individual.

    Thanks,
    Tomwa

    Negatively Speaking, I'm sure all the Venomancers who bought feathers and orbs during the last sale are now facepalming themselves repeatedly. I know I'd be pissed.

    Positively speaking, just like when the Mystics came out, Feather/Orb sales will probably drop for those of you not wanting to take a huge, huge gamble. ....not much compensation.
    But since when has PWI ever been fair? b:surrender
    They made fun of me because I wasn't a R8 Psychic...and then came third cast. It's not funny anymore.

    I'm a veno with a herc and I don't care. I might even spend a dollar or two (MAX) to see if I can get lucky & get a nix. (or maybe the puppy; they're really cute!!!) TBH; I was more upset about not being able to get the giant bunny; unless I enter an Easter Egg coloring contest like I'm 8 years old again. Oh & FYI; the herc and nix pet ticket as far as I am aware, has always been tradeable (even the ones from the 9999 SOF's or feathers; it's the egg and the actual pet that can't be traded. :)

    Wait...what? The only price-worthy thing these packs hold is the pets. Why else would you open them? 0.04% chance of getting a gem worth 1.8 mil. And flying mounts for 3 races that are old and only cost like...6 gold now?b:bye

    So you are saying no one is going to be foolish enough to buy these packs in bulk to open right?

    You living in lalaland?Wouldn't matter if there was a .4% chance at a top prize of 5mil,they would still be bought by the multitudes of people with too much money and too little sense that populate pw current day.

    I guarantee on HT wc will have pet tickets being sold by days end.

    EDIT nvm days end,logged on 5 mins after this post and already saw 1 herc ticket for sale on wc lol....yeah no ones going to be opening these O.o
    How to be pro at all recent COD games,lay claymore behind you at exit to room,lie down and shoot anyone coming in front door,rinse and repeat.
    Host advantage get you killed?Never fear,with a 50% chance of spawning in behind your killer revenge will surely be yours.
    Can't aim for ****?Never fear.aim assist and cursor magnetism!
    Best of all,after a few kills the game will play itself and bump your k/d to new highs with its killstreaks system!

    :o I'm a veno with herk & I don't care. What difference does it make to me... So a year before some of the items I had were more exclusive or more expensive than they are now... I can QQ about dif things on pwi, this sale isn't one of them.


    Depending on the prices, maybe I'll get a nix now too.

    As a venomancer with a herc, I really don't care XD.

    Also, I never buy packs, I tend to be pretty unlucky :3

    If I could do it all over, or if I had a job, I'd be a 5.0 BM or sin. They are a little more popular than venos XD.

    Legendary pets are overrated. They were more useful when TT mats were actually worth something and when Venos were the only class who could solo them. Or when everyone wasnt' wearing r8/r9 gear and nix could actually deal some high damage on players. Those pets today are so far from being OP that the recent high prices only been laughable. I believe it's just an old trend that remains from old days and people not realizing that those pets are just a yesterday thing. At the same time people expect that every veno should have one of these pets while charging ridiculous money for SoF/PF. Now prices are dropping, eh? Well thank God.. About time.

    50 silver for the Perfect Chest means an average of 125 Gold to get either a Nix or a Herc.

    A 50%-off Battle Pet pack sale meant an average of 93 Gold to get either a Nix or a Herc.

    When you factor in all the extra junk you'll get opening Perfect Chests the price will come out cheaper, but overall I'd say this particular sale is pretty reasonable, balance-wise.

    Wait, whats the new problem with this? o.o
    I'm a veno with herc & nix and I got all of the herc I had been longing for for ages with ingame coins and time.

    Cant understand the raging. Before you could win a scroll of tome which goes for 200mil+ on my server. Sell it and get your herc/nix?
    Only problem seems to be that people that didnt realize that before but now its put right in front of their eyes. So ..nerd rage lol
