Ok Facebones here. Back with another thread about the disappointing drop rates in the new Winter Festival map. And my concerns about the Winter Item pack.
I have run the Festival map more than 15 times now on several different level scales. Level 10-30-40. I haven't had a pink drop for me yet. But when some one lower than I joined a couple times they have received pink drops. What are others experiences with the drop mechanics? What level were you or the person who got a pink drop. Please only honest info.
Now my issue with the Festival item pack. I have purchased 3 now. And no reindeer. In the description it says either the snowman emblem or the reindeer pet. If I have already received the snowman emblem should that not make my next pack purchase include the reindeer pet? It doesn't say there is a chance at pet. It says one or the other. If I knew it would be a rare chance at the pet I would not have purchased 3 packs totalling 90 plat just so I could have 3 snowman emblems. I think the description should be more clear. Because your chances at getting the pet are quite a bit lower than the emblem and the description does not indicate this.
Over all I am pretty disappointed with the holiday content. As it is the holidays one would think there would be a more generous nature to the content. But to me it seems more like an added waste of plat. I had no problems with spending some plat on it at the beginning of the release. But as it continue's and my luck has not changed I feel the intentions were less than generous.
With the release of Voleria with it. And the fact that people would be spending a lot of plat to gain experience there I would of thought the Christmas content would be less of a plat pit than it is.
I don't know if my luck is just terrible or if this is the case for everyone. But I would likely have a different opinion if my luck with the Item pack and drop rate were better. I want to know if anyone else has had the luck I have or lack there of.
I guess after thinking about it for an amount of time my consensus is that anyone who has purchased multiple Christmas Packs should have received a Reindeer pet. What is the harm in at least doing that?
