Asking blood too be guaranteed loot is unreasonable. I dont agree with that. But as some1 opening evry lock that comes out,atleast 1 guarantee pull,sometimsz 5,6 (been lb all 3 weeks of winter just from opening locks) its crazy to spend 6k play/keys (same thing) and get 0 blood items.Originally Posted by Kakashis
5ok is a little bit too much maybe a 20k plat costume set. Also in limited qty.
Lol I think he/she is just joking around. What on earth would be worth that kind of money.
i agree w the blood guarantee thing, right when blood gears came out people wanted them in guaranteed loot lmfao which isnt very logical
Though, i can say as a plat buyer, these locks are not worth opening
I also agree that the drop rate for envelopes is hella low, seeing that it costs 9.9k envelopes for 1 item in the vendor. As a hardcore main, its gonna be tough to get wisp + badge
What do you mean no? I knew the player who told in this thread that he got 2 mythics in 2 guarantee, he by far means he got only 2 mythics in 2 guarantee ( 6k locks ) without any other loot aside from guarantee itself.

6k plats and getting only the loot of guaranteed that probably is around 40m is.wild.
Hey Cinco,
I’m not talking about guaranteed loot, I know how that works. My issue is the random drops. After 6,000 platinum, not a single Blood item, while others get multiple with far less.
Is this really working as intended? Because after the platinum price changes, it feels even more rigged than before.

Sorry for misunderstanding your complaint.
It is always the case with RNG - sometimes it takes more pulls, sometimes fewer.
This doesn’t feel like bad luck, it feels like the drop rates are off.
If this is how it’s “working as intended” then the system clearly needs an urgent review.
Unless, of course, STS doesn’t care about how much money customers lose or how much you’re profiting from it.

We monitor this stuff pretty closely and know that the results vary from player to player.
You indicated above "others get multiple with far less" - which I take to mean that you have seen various Blood Star items drop for others at lower pull counts. Is this correct? I don't want to misunderstand you again. If you are saying what I think you are saying then it does indeed chalk up to RNG, and there is no favoritism / disfavor related to locked crate loot chances.
Hey Cinco,
Yes, I’ve seen multiple Blood Star items drop for others with far fewer pulls. This is exactly what I’m referring to, a huge disparity in what players are getting with similar or less investment.
If RNG were truly random, the results wouldn’t be so extremely skewed. The fact that some players are getting multiple Blood items with a fraction of the pulls, while others get nothing, suggests there’s something wrong with the system.
So it’s not just RNG, it feels like something is off with how the rates are set. This isn’t just luck, it’s a pattern that’s hard to ignore.

How about adding new arcane items in the store for 1,500 plat each or 2k plat each which is equal to around 300-400mil gold. The only down side to the player is they don't get loot from locks when opening since they aren't opening locks, the arc item is just placed in the store for that plat amount.
If you are wondering where 500 plat is equal to 100mil comes from its your arcane awake gems, 10 plat each 1 gem is 2mil. 500 plat is 50 gems, 50 times 2mil is 100m. Something to maybe test out, I do feel it would decrease sales though honestly since people who play HC can just insta buy them and the people addicted to gambling will just buy them too.
Click the spoilers!
I think it’s really simple. People are not happy with their personal ROI when it comes to opening event crates. STS has admitted that they know its a crap shoot when opening (…“the results vary…”). Players are only guaranteed the “guaranteed loot” if they open a full round. What the player base is saying is that some people are spending hundreds of more dollars on opening round after round after round and only getting the guaranteed loot while a small amount of players are getting multiple arcane and mythic drops throughout the round PLUS the guaranteed loot. It seems like a rip-off to those that are less than lucky.
My POV: I put my TRUST (thats a key word here) that I would loot at least one blood item when I opened crates during the halloween event. I opened multiple full rounds and not one blood item. I did loot a few sb and krak, but I didnt need any of that gear. So all that money “wasted” on something I could have just purchased outright in the beginning. If I only knew that the drop rates were going to be a little (lot) screwy, I would have opted to purchase the item pack as I ended up spending just about the same amount. So disappointing!
You guys profit on our time and our hard earned money. Listen to your player base and figure out how we can TRUST STS with our time and money. Fix your drop rates or find a way to make sure our ROI is guaranteed to be mutually positive. You are losing your player base and also pushing your big spenders to look elsewhere for their entertainment. I, personally, am not afraid to drop money on something that I enjoy, which I am positive you can tell in my plat spend history over the last year. Moving forward, my hard earned money will be directed elsewhere (and I am positive there are quite a few others out there as well) until this is corrected…simple as that. You guys are smart. You can find a way to appease your audience. Dont be greedy.
I think there is a term for all this…
“Youre shooting yourself in the foot”
Nah,rates are absolutely off with these locks. Many keys got sold and opened, many people open locks, and you can see blood and even Sb prices didnt take big dive. RNG still should work on math-more you open,bigger chance is next one is winner. But not on this rigged lock made so we wud buy more of 100$ packs. (Btwn i paid 130$again i game) Because your on website shop isnt working for us in Serbia, and cherry om the Cake are Lyndseys generic answer for evry complaint/report we send to support.
Its time fornyou guys to stop making feedback posts,because somehow you manage to aggravate players with your "suck it up,i domt care" answers.
Last few feedback posts were fiasco,people raging and it ending up you closong them.
You guys lost your way months ago,and should listen to whats left of your supporters.
+1 locks rn are so bs, tried myself again since its always about RNG as cinco said but havent got any luck from 4k plats, tried the aura locks, pet locks, 15 plat gear locks and class locks and got absolutely pink everywhere and pink eggs lol, im good from buying again.

The RNG is extremely bad and has taken a dive lately, youre right, i knew that once i spent 50k plat to acquire frostfire arm for my hc , kinda insane
Also i am curious @devs- does killjoy really drop killjoy badge? ive farmed 20k envelopes, elixir running entire time and no badge- do you know how many killjoys you have to kill for 20k envelopes? Shouldnt it have dropped?
Dropped 1 2 days ago without elixir running random maps, hardcore mode tho.

Rot is hardcore and also has worse luck then me, and that's hard to do.
