Platinum Pricing Changes

Attachment 274951
Legends,

We will soon be introducing new Platinum pricing and updating the available Platinum packages for Arcane Legends:

Amount	OLD US Price (40% off)	NEW US Base Price
Adventurer's Kit	$2.99 (Includes 10P)	$2.99 (Includes 30P)
30	$2.99	$2.99
75	$5.99	$4.99
200 (NEW)		$9.99
600	$29.99	$19.99
1700	$54.99	$49.99
4000 (NEW)		$99.99

The following packages will be retired: 10 Platinum and 165 Platinum.
The following packages will be added: 200 Platinum and 4000 Platinum.

The Adventurer's Kit will still be available at the same price, but we're bumping the Platinum awarded from 10P to 30P. If you have purchased the Adventurer's Kit (or it's not available on your platform), you will see the 30 Platinum package.

We still plan on having the occasional Platinum sale off of the new base prices. Also, many of you have asked for regional pricing and that's something we're looking into.

Let us know what you think!

Give us that 40% off $99.99 release special.

When is this going out?

If you guys continue to do 10k+ plat kits can you add: 6.75k plat $150 - 45 plat per $1, 10k for $200- 50 plat per $1 and finally 27.5k for $500 - 55 plat per $1?

Your 1700 plat for $55 is 30.9 plat per $1, 4000 plat for $100 is 40 plat per $1.

+1 to this one.

The idea was to place a fair amount of platinum according to the prices, not just add 2 new quantities to the usual price, when you do one thing do it well not halfway, copy the same micro payment system as all the games in the play store and you will do better, battle passes at 5 or 10 dollars with gold prizes, vanity, etc, but as always making the minimum

Can we get the missing 20plat if we bought the adventure kit prior to this update?

Still expensive fornite is cheaper or call of duty mobile and them make a lot of money

Implementing regional pricing would be a fantastic idea. Due to the volatility of my country's currency, it's a bit challenging to contribute financially. Having the value adjusted according to each player's region would be incredible!

Sweet, 4k plat option finally

Regional plat price soooon letsgo

-1 for regional prices , that’s unfair to many players imo , just because most of the countries population earn less income doesn’t mean all the players in that country have a low income , that’ll be a huge advantage which is unfair

Oh but it's very fair, every major service does it and they ban those who try to use vpn to fake their region (easy)
$100 can be pocket change or a restaurant tip in some parts of the world, whereas the same amount can be a week's pay for a job in other parts

ofc +1 for regional prices

A welcome change!

Hope they give me a reason to spend more.

No bc they already made the 40 % normal price and you guys still want another 40 on top of an even better deal. No thanks. Good enough

Possible 40% off the 99$ pack? Kinda scamming urself sts dont make plat the new gold

Why on earth do you care how much it costs. Cheaper plat means more items in game. Drop rates are so bad for.new.items you need more plat to loot whatever is coming out.

99$ does not have 40% off

It should be 89$ for 4000
And 49$ for 1700

Also some countries can’t pay with usd so change the currency to match their inflation its been years and u guys only taking usd which cost more for different countries its unbelievable

Would love to know the new pricing in Australian dollars as well! I definitely would spend more if the price matches in AUD [emoji7] Thanks!

scamming themselves? wdym? haha haven't you seen the sad people spending tens of thousands of plat and not getting what they wanted?
thousands of dollars...that's unheard of even in the most notorious gacha games these days

again what are you talking about? have u used plat in recent years?
just look at the latest event: 3 different crates now...for gear...for vanity...for pet...
all the rng has been getting so bad that I could easily argue 4k plat for 60$ is barely worth it

I'm not even sure if the value you can get for 4000 plat today is close to the value of 1700 plat some years ago

that being said this change will have the following results:

1. increase plat buyers interest/satisfaction(which has been at an all time low recently)
2. convince more people to consider buying plat
3. slight increase in the plat only item availability(again due to how bad the rng has become...soon we might have different crates for each piece of gear lol)

on the long run I don't see this change affecting the game economy that much in a bad way(and if it does I'm sure they'll just lower the rates even further)
but it will most definetly increase sts profits by a lot

Can we get that plat change in dark legend too ?

Im calling it now, the guranteed drop will increase to 1000.

Knowing sts, they will either do this or change smt about the drop rates of the "valuable items" from lockeds

The change in platinum prices with 1,700 platinum now costing $50 and 4,000 platinum costing $100—will make things more expensive in the game, much like printing more money causes inflation in real life. As platinum becomes harder to get, the platinum-to-gold exchange rate will likely rise, making it more expensive to buy things with gold. This will drive up prices for vanity, gear basically everything, making them less affordable for most players. To keep up with the rising prices, players will need to buy more platinum, which means spending more real money. In the end, everything from gear to collectibles will cost more, hurting the overall in-game economy and making it harder for casual players and normal plat users to keep up. This is all up for debate though just my personal opinion.

We will be granting Platinum to make up for the pricing difference for those that purchased Platinum within the last 7 days.

Yes, we have plans to adjust Platinum pricing for Pocket/Star/Dark Legends as well. There is no date on when this will occur, but it's currently high on our todo list.

All you gotta do is make the drop rates worse lmao. Guess what they do when they put out new items? Guess how long they sell those items? Have a fun 2 years flushing your money!

Will that adjustment based on new 4000P pack cost or 1700P?

For example, one bought 2x1700P which cost $109.98 and you adjust. Will they get 600P+ (4000P - 2x1700P) or just $10 worth of plat?

Either way it is nice you guys are willing to adjust, thanks!

Unfortunately, no. Free Platinum from offers mostly fell into two categories: player fraud/abuse and refused payouts from 3rd party providers. It was too much of a hassle to deal with. I also looked into offering video views for Platinum, but the views per Platinum ratios did not work for us.

on the contrary
platinum only items should be cheaper
if we get more plat for less money every1 will have more plat resulting in more crates being opened and more platinum only items in the auction
which translates to lower prices in gold

I fail to comprehend how you got to these conclusions honestly
what you're describing seems to be the complete opposite of what's intended with this change

Perhaps you can make a quest that takes days to complete for a few free plats. Example, completing a daily task x #days.

Once this update goes live, we're going to be granting extra Platinum:

• 600 will grant 200 Platinum per package purchased within the last 7d
• 1700 will grant 155 Platinum per package purchased within the last 7d
• Adventurer's Kit will grant 20 Platinum per package purchased within the last 7d

These grants will appear as a single Platinum Adjustment in your purchase history and the adjustment will NOT count toward Account Rewards.

It shows that u dont know what youre talking about, but two things

1. Crates isnt the only thing you can do with plat to make gold

2. If sts can change platinum prices (to make people open more locks) they can also worsen the drop rate of gears from locks

why not something like battle pass? ik u said no, but u should think about it a little better, because many companies make good money using this system :)

Can someone simplify why some people are complaining about the changes? (I dont get it) As someone who spends a lot in this game I love, I don’t see any negative effect of an improved in-app purchase rate.

Are they worried that their stored gold will get less value?
