After using around 100++ Forgotten elixers throughout the week [Bought for 400k each] , and running for hours and hours , all I got was a single firebug elixer aura , didn't even loot a single glintstone aura . Is this how you reward your players for grinding hours and hours + the plat / gold cost ?

Please make the glintstone aura drop rates reasonable to grind for . It's an humbe request.

@Cinco Since you made vanity drop rates too high , why not atleast make the glintstone aura drop rates reasonable ?

Higher drop rate = price goes down, and more rip my eyes that bright
The payout in this case should always be less than price / elix cost
since you are also getting tokens, and many people using it not with aura
but token in mind

I've run 100-120 elixirs too, got nothing (from unlocked crates too), I already know pve in this game got ruined, but it was one of my favorite events to grind, not anymore lol, easier just buy auras and everything u want, instead wasting so much time for shet events.

P.S.: Tbh I started run event just to level my pet, imagine, after 100 elixirs it leveled only from 66 to 79 level haha, what a joke, pets getting so low xp now.. :/

So you mean to say give no value for player time and effort spent running hours tirelessly + loosing a lot of gold / Plat

About the token thing , don't talk about that , those tokens are literally no use after u have bought the bound vanity weapons , locks and jewel chests have insanely low chances , so not worth opening .

Its not what i think, it is how it is
The price adjusts itself, more drops = less people want to pay and viceversa
The price stabilized itself at around that price means people who bought
elix are mostly comfortable with such drop rate, mixed in with the fact
that half of the runs comes from people that does not expect an aura drop
and they simply wants token.

And by comfortable I mean the X drop rate when the elix is Y gold each
If you want to learn more, idk take a course on it or something

Also, tokens are useless for you, and you only, and you don't represent half
of the population, not even all the "buying elix to run for aura" community

Also is token really useless? Are you sure about that?
250 token literally can get you over 5 plat worth if items
if you buy lockeds
Without elix, you get 250+- tokens, with elix, you get 1500+-
1250 tokens equals to 25 plat, which translates to almost a
million in gold if you buy forgotten elix.
You say that's useless? Hilarious

You say you used over 100elix, so that means you got 100m+-
worth of locked opening if you spent it sparingly. Thats more than
what a single aura can ever get for you.

But you ignored that

Focus on what you got, not what you could but cant, be happy
enjoy the game

This event is supposed to be vanity event not a trash lock opening event .

Correct, but when you choose to use elix it's basically gambling.

It will never satisfy anyone if you consider tokens to be literally, 0 gold
and not fair to do so because there are indeed good loot in those lockeds.

Take jarl event for example, people saying jarl elix are good because
it gives you a ring every 20m worth of elix while the ring worth 30.
But in this case, you have more, tokens, and gold goblin spawn chance
And those actually weight majorly for most players. Thus if you just
focus on aura as the only difference it makes, ofc it will be "not worth it"
But again, the price settled to be what it is now because people who used
elix are satisfied and accept it.
And is ultimately incorrect to enforce your own value, eg, tokens worth nothing
when taking about profit and gain.
Sure it is going to make it sound more convincing, but it is heavily biased, misleading
and incorrect

I just remember the old days of lock farming, when there was certainity that you would be payed well for your hard work without additional investment , I feel like that is what made the game fun. Now it's mostly just gold loot farming & gambling with elixers.

Same xd, making like 1% of people mega happy and the rest

Maybe make valuable items drop more in the future event, but
now it's a bit too late and people with aura will hate it. Also imo
glint auras and fireball is really making my eyes burn. Especially the
firebug

If this is the price now , I don't know what prices will be after the event .

Hey man, learn to let go, here and in game.
If you don't care about what other people treasures,
Why bother? You already know its a bad deal if you
just want aura. Why do you keep pushing youself in it?
Chance of looting aura is same for the first elix and 1000th
You are "loosing gold" everytime you use elix

Let go, cut the lost, or take it like a man

you don't see the frustration that majority of the people facing .

nobody got enough time nor gold to run countless elixir .

This is the main reason why people quit ,its not like we doing jop here .

Running all day (with elixir)but not got anything .

try it and when you don't loot any aura ,come here and quote me

The best time to gold conversion imo is hoarding stuff like elites/normal awakes, rare lb vanities, plat eggs etc..

Those will give u the best bang for your buck down the road.

Mainly, with less effort.

Unlike farming so much with gl and gear(unstable as gear can be killed as and when sts sees fit) gl gear up and down.
Or running events like this with elixir where luck determines along with so kuch effort and energy spent. Why?

Just buy stuff and play hoarding legends.
Pve too expensive, pvp too dead, events for lb /plat tier only(only some plat rewards worth the time and effort ).

You want cheese, so you went to McDonald's and ordered cheese
burgers for 3$, you threw away the bun, lettuce, paddy and complain to the
manager: "3$ for just this? Just one slice of cheese?".

Ofc, 3$ just for a slice of slice of cheese is expensive. Supermarket
nearby sells a 10slice pack for 3$. If you just eat cheese in the burger
you gotta spend 30$, which is what you are doing right now.

I enjoy this event much more than pure gold event such as Jarl
and pirate thing. Why? Look at what I got just from 2m worth of
elix! Flamestrike, wyrmbone architect and more. I love it.
Im happy, I never expected an aura anyways.
If i don't even care about those awesome bound weapon (
Buns, lettuce, tomatoes and paddy) , I shouldn't
run this event. As I won't spend 30$ to get 10 burgers (elix), just to
eat the cheese (aura)

Not all events are ment for heavy grinding for gold, events like
this are equally, if not more valuable to players like me who
got other stuff to do. Not all events have to give mad profit.
There will be plents of other events that gives mad loot, cheers

am pretty sure you just played for the bound vanities which can be purchased from token vendor

spent like 20 elixir at most and didnt played the event .

but speaking of myself i probably ran 100+ elixir since the event started ,even wasted elixir on first 6 days before they buff drops .

all my time and effort seems to be wasted .

how long do i need to keep playing for a aura drop ?

its not like i got unlimited gold to waste on elixir

you talked about the cheese part for buying 3$ ,well atleast i got the cheese to enjoy

and this will be the last time i will say dont quote me unless you spent same time and gold as i did

am confuse how can you compare in real life situation with a game without any reference ?

if am getting 10 slice of cheese from a certain shop at a cheaper, why would i go buying a burger consisting a single slice of cheese at a same price ?

we are not stupid for your information .

let me rephrase whats the main issue here

we are actually complaining about the drop rates of aura and we know drops chances are increased whilst using an elixir .

people have spent 100+ elixir but still it doesn't seems to be dropped .

speaking of me i already brought all the vans before i reached 30 elixir ,tried opening locks and yay ty for trash

bound vanities are worthless anyway

I thought bringing in real life example would help you to understand
Since all the reasonings were stated way before the burger example
But you didn't get any of that

So let me summarize it... Wait nvm im tired
Can never wake the ones whos pretending to sleep

All i can say is maybe this event isn't for you
The most wise decision is to stop now knowing
you already got what it has to offer.
Or keep going until you get the cherry on top, worth it or not

you have played only for the bound items
and me i played to loot aura and in my case i didnt loot any due to less drop rates .

you are happy with your bound vans after grinding the event for a specific time

am disappointed after wasting 100+ elixir also wasting time .

we complaining to devs to increase the drop rates and

on the other hand you roaming post to post with your ideology how things are meant to be .

just a simple favour stop what you doing since its not helping anyway .

we know its a gamble when going for aura and yes we accept to try our luck but how long should we keep going ?

you see the problem here ?

Yes, and that is the exact reason why I never bothered to start
Escape the mindset loop of "oh i spent hundreds of millions already"
I will loose gold if i stop now i cant stop now
Thart with the perspective of a bystander
The elix gives more than just aura, the purpose is to let casual players
can get their vanities much faster. So regardless of you like it or not,
the value for casual players should be taken into account of the payout.

Going back to the burger example, if you want to stuff yourself
full with only cheese in a burger? Prepare to pay a lot for that
So sit back, enjoy the burger, or buy a whole pack of cheese
in the right event

I hope sts make a deal with incense burner,
For example : i will use forgotten elixir 100 pcs , or 150 pcs forgotten elixir after that i will receiving my incense burner if i used already 150 pcs forgotten elixir or its up to developers how many it is. Maybe random aura or chest can choose my aura what i want to take . While running with 150 elixir pcs, if this player got special aura the incense burner will be back to 0 after he got 1 from the boss.

I feel sad for those who really love playing the event with using huge of elixirs. They deserve some love and caring from the sts developers .

Sad to say my friend just 2 elixirs he was used he got glint aura. While other players done using 100+ elixirs above no good drop from event.

i totally agree about the basic of economy and how the market adjusts the price it self linier to the economy and time sacrifice the players have spent,but i think i have to disagree a bit here since i believe unlocked gorestomp crate is different than normal lockeds so u cant take it as locked gorestomp,i found that after opening about 100 or so of unlocked gore crate it actually has significantly less goods (arcane/mythic/set/heroic) drop chance,or i might just unlucky hehehe

After using around 100++ Forgotten elixers throughout the week [Bought for 400k each] , and running for hours and hours , all I got was a single firebug elixer aura , didn't even loot a single glintstone aura . Is this how you reward your players for grinding hours and hours + the plat / gold cost ?

Please make the glintstone aura drop rates reasonable to grind for . It's an humbe request.

@Cinco Since you made vanity drop rates too high , why not atleast make the glintstone aura drop rates reasonable ?
