And this means that everyone has the same chance to loot it, for example it shouldn't just be looted in the planar for examples as that would mean only rich people who have the best gear can get them as they can run for runs faster.

So - no buy, just looting in elite. Means locks do decrease prices. Elite chests don't decrease price. Everyone can open locks with grinding. Gets more gameplay. Win Win!

STS lose a lot of money I don't see that happening.

Please tell me how 'STS loses a lot of money'? Because as far as I understand i said 'low chance' I don't like STS would be losing very much if the chance of drop was for example 1/100 million. They would gain MORE income as it will mean more people will play and have something to do.
So please explain

So please explain

If your going to make the drop chance arcane chance, why would anyone bother wasting their time to open 1 crate? If your going to make it same chance as vial, well I don't need to say much more.

Elite farming is dead anyway.

Player A buys crate from CS for 10k

Player A sells unlocked crate for 40k to Player B
Player B opens locked crate.

Result:

● Player A gains 30k gold (2x his plat expense converted to gold, which is the general profit from other plat-purchase-sold items). Profits in Gold.

● Player B (Non-plat user) opens crate and genuinely loots contents. Profits in Crate Loot.

● 1 crate is removed from the game, and 15 plat is ultimately consumed, leaving STS unaffected with the same profit gain as before.

this is also can be good for locked prizes in auc. km3 farms will start again... i like the idea

Never stated that it to be the same as vial. I just gave an example of how to make it so that everyone profits.

And why would anyone bother you say? It's because it has a chance to earn you 50million in a few days instead of years.

Another reason why, because your farming elites anyway at endgame. It's just another benefit.

You do understand most people get arcanes and myths after a minimum of like 100 crates right? .-.

So ? What are you exactly trying to say lol?

Plus they must be lucky, as far as I know some people don't get any arcanes until they open like 600 crates.

Im tryna say if ur gona make the key hard to get/ time consuming its not worth it

**Hoardseeker** · 03-07-2015, 04:23 AM

It simply brings the cost of Elite chests down and u cannot make money by getting those chests

**Pillowhead** · 03-07-2015, 04:13 PM

I agree with this thread.
They should put keys in the shop for 15 plat each.
The keys won't be cheap tho, it will cost around 20-30k, because it's 15 platinum for each key.
The lockeds will be expensive to, cause everyone wants them.
The loot chance in the lockeds are not even high, the moment you'll get the mythic/arcane, you've already spent 3-6m gold on the chets and keys.
So It's a win for everyone I guess, mostly for the rich players, but everyone can try, right?

If you make it possible for these players to open locked crates, then elite golden chests will be worth very little and that will be the end of elite farming.

Your point is indeed valid, but please..How many people have actually received an Arcane item from a chest this century? :3
