View Full Version : The chance and luck

I was wondering if it was a bug, or not. But after writing down every single chests (silver, gold, copper) and bundles (from Platinum store) that I opened, I did not receive a single pink. Here's what I opened at the moment.
Looted chests:
- Silver chest: Opened 52 times, not a single pink.
- Copper chest: Opened 36 times, not a single pink.
- Gold chest: Opened 16 times, not a single pink.
Platinum/gold purchasable chests/bundles from store:
- Founder's mystery chest: Opened 75 times, not a single pink.
- Founder's weapon chest: Opened 28 times, not a single pink.
Total of chests/bundles opened: 206.
All of them were opened on my account, but on 2 different characters (to test the rate).
Items received: Greens, and rarely purples.
I'm not complaining, or telling anything bad (makes me feel bad), i'm just wondering if it's a bug, or if the chance/luck of this game is really low and depends on the characters.
_________________________
-Edited, I opened even more now. Again, not a single pink BUT received a common. This is making me really upset!
-Edited again, opened few more. STILL not a single pink!
-Edited, 30 more. STILL NO PINK.
-Much more added. No pink as usual.
Thanks!

It's annoying :/
Your not alone. Wasted.all.my.plat around 400 and.only.one founders weapon 3chest...

I suggest give us the option to buy the item instead of doin a gamble which makes us lose more...

Spent around 30 hours of farming, 400k, and only managed to get 6-7 noticeable pinks (trollbane, wyrmbrone etc). This excludes founders though, I managed to get a full set from that. It took forever though, and I FULLY regret doing it.
Sadly, in the future I will be regretting not getting 100 sets of founders, because I promise you they will be rocketing in price.

If you guys just quit buying these things by the hundreds then STS will rethink their policy concerning them and may just give up the goods for direct purchase. When you spend hundreds of plat and hundreds of thousands gold on them they would be foolish to get rid of that. Quit buying them.

Fix what? Nothings broke. I got a couple pinks out of them, rings and amulets, so they are there. Just because you haven't scored any does not mean they are broke.

That's what i'm saying. Some players never have any after 200+ chests, like me. There's maybe some issues on some characters, they should have a look, or increase luck. Put yourself at my place, you'd do the same. Don't get me wrong.

No, I wouldn't. After 5 or 6 I would quit buying them.

At least in SL and PL we used to be happy on getting that pink color flash on that screen ( man I love that color anywhere I see lol).
Now even on getting elite gold chest I feel may be some epics lol.

I purchased one founders chest for 7 plat, it was the one with 3 armors and I got one pink founders armor. Figured I would quit while I was ahead at that point, but maybe I will try a few more times to get a helm and weapon.

Bro just convert the plat into gold and buy the founders from cs as its tradeable. U were lucky first time, but now u might just be wasting plat cuz the pink rate in founder chest is so low; cs is cheaper and a guaranteed chance and you have a choice of the pink u wanna buy. Also plat might be useful save it :D but its ur choice.

I guess I got lucky again. I decided to try for the matching helm, and I bought 3 helm chests and got it on the 3rd try. So now I got the matching mage set for lvl15 (helm and armor), and it cost me 28 plat total. In CS it is over 80k, so I think I made out well. I bought the staff in the CS as it was only 3800 gold.
Now I'm just wondering what's going to happen with the founders stuff. Will it become vanity? If not, I don't know if it will even be worth much as it's not the best gear for any level. It's just unique and nice looking, so IDK. Would be nice if it converts to vanity.

Turning it into vanity is the only thing why it would survive in my inv, else soon it will be just low lvl junk

Because that pack ALWAYS give you pink set.
And it is not founders, it's forerunners.

Yep I had hope untill I hit 200k gold waisted. These chance packs realy arent worth it I bought founders helm and armor in cs for less then half of what I spent on the chests. Im sure prices have went up since then so not sure how much it would cost u now.

Yeah, I know. I don't buy Chests anymore. I just farm for them now.
