    I always enjoy this one. But If I could make one suggestion, for future consideration. Allow the varying rarity levels to work both ways.

    For example, one Very rare will give one Rare pack.

    How about something like 8 rare packs, will make one Very Rare. Given the odds of getting a lower pack, this could be a boon, to sell more, as people will buy them up even more, to race to the big ultra rare super duper ship pack, or even for some consoles they may want from the lower ones.

    The current down grading is fine but what the system actually needs is actual rewards for people who have all the event ships with nothing to spend EPIC ones on. So increasing the value of the lower rarity devalues the packs overall where we already have a devalued exchange for dilithium in the worst rate right now.

    I agree maybe turning in an epic tokens for some lobi, or a ship token or something in addition to the existing ships.

    What would be nice about it is if possibly it had Legendary, Promo, and/or Lockbox ships under the epic section. Possibly some of them like a random one for the day and then at lower rarities something like the admiralty system the way it has the pass tokens where you can change the selection on some of them to something different. Basically something to add value but not give away the farm. On the character basis I could see how the options would still allow for value to be kept in the different ships and also bring back the value that has been lost from the packs that has dwindled over time. Especially being you can fly any ship on any character it will definitely bring demand in and the rate at which the epic ones drop I don't see any downside to them doing it like this.

    The Phoenix's prize list is a bit stagnant & stale, Infinity lockbox is obesely bloated, & that's why for this event I come for the upgrades anything else is gravy.

    Well you have to understand that Mudd's Market is the successor to the Phoenix pack but the Phoenix pack is VERY good at helping control the dil exchange which is exactly what it was designed for.. To either be a way of converting money to dil or removing dil that can otherwise be converted for money.

    If it didn't serve that advantage it wouldn't be a thing anymore.
