Won't take a chance of wasting 15 plat to get a lv 2 stuff though. I hope sts will give some feedback.

Yes, a crate can be opened at any level, including 1.
Does this mean that they will give a lv 1 stuff? Oh well, I'll give it a try then.Quote:

This should have a feature to convert it into vanity and untradable. Im sure people wouldnt mind if they had the option to convert this, when I looked at this it looked like vanity and as I scrolled down I saw that it wasnt. I saw this on rutgar before this came out and thought how awseome it would be to have that, would be cool if we could convert it, or make it all just vanity
Plus this vanity would match my ign "Elite". Oh did I say vanity didnt meant this gear-.-
Really accidently put vanity instead of gear but I went alon with it
Ty for not making them op. It would be way worse if they were to ruin all the current gear in place. Imagine the threads if this gear was best current available
If these boxes would contain one piece of the sets as a vanity item I'd spend Platinum on it. But, as a lvl specified (of the character that opens it up) item with these stats that I've seen at the ones in Auctions... No, thanks!
They really do look good, but I wouldn't use them with these stats.
So.. You have lvl1 XPoff characters too? :DQuote:

I'd love to have lvl1 Legendary armors!!!!!
Apparently my fellow rouges arent double checking stats. The heroic stability armor is on par with the best rouge armor to date (demonlord of stability), and the best helm (agile ranger of stability). Not to mention at this point, its FAR cheaper.
The heroic stability fancy armor is one of the best armor for rogues! I just bought the level 21 versions and put my level 16 versions on sale.
This mean i can stash the crate and wait for another level cap.Quote:

You shouldn't have to pay to open these chests.
You just have to look at the trading store in game now and the first 32 items in that category of sale are these chests. Just goes to show that it was a bad call to make winners pay for their prize. And people are selling them for next to nothing once you have paid your sales fee.
If anyone can explain the reasoning behind this idea of paying for the opening of your own chest, I'd love to hear it please.
wow this is cool. i will buy this crate
Yes I do have a level 1 toon. Such a shame that all those cool stuffs isn't available for level 1. I don't get why though. You can get a lvl 1 legendary armors, there is 2 available atm. Stuff from the bundle which is Forerunner n Stormrunner.Quote:

I think it's a cool idea, as it involves everyone in the process of a player purchasing a plat pack, rather than it being a straight player/STS transaction. Not to mention that in most cases players now get a little coin each time this kind of plat pack is sold (i.e., opend), since the plat spender is most likely getting it from the CS. Sure, it may not be much, but it's something. You can't say that about the chests in the plat store.
Yeah, that would kill the whole idea of this marketing strategy. The whole point of this was to confuse folks, and I'm guessing it worked. It's much more tempting to pay plat to open a chest that is already in your inventory rather than just go to the plat store and buy one. STS has counted on this fact, and I'm guessing it resulted in much more profit for them. I think it's a brilliant idea on their part. Nothing they did was wrong here. It's just a brilliant marketing strategy. I think I would have preferred if the chests were a little more rare though, but then again that would mean less plat for STS as fewer chests would be opened.Quote:

I must admit it made me play the game more than usual in the hope that I might be lucky and get one of these crates too. If I had known it was going to cost you a heavy price to claim, I wouldn't have other end so much.
But why pay extra gold on top for the chest in store and then the plat to open it, when you will be able to get one from plat store for just the plat only? Unless of course you are one of the few elite that has a huge amount of gold and plat to burn. Sadly most of us are not so cashed up.
