    *laughs* No Sir. I was not lucky enough to get costumes.

    ^This. Everybody seems to be so upset about these events and everybody has their reason for it. But not everyone gets the same amount of luck in these events. Some might end up getting a lot, some people didn't see anything worth while. My friend managed to get full bank of crafting, I didn't get nothing but couple of items worth of 500g and crafting stuff to last me for couple of trying on masterworking.

    Kyra is RNG. You wouldn't go to casino with expectation to win jackpot do you, same here. Yes, I wanted a permanent dicoball didn't got it, but my friend did. But I did got +15 scroll and 60lvl scroll, so I had RNG gods on my side. And btw, red Kata was all about mats.

    You just previously pointed out that "wasn't Kyra enough" when it came down to costumes. While I understand how RNG works and there is no reason to be upset about a number game here, the point I was trying to make is about the over all unhappiness of a lot of players when it comes to these events.

    Some, are fairly upset about the fact that it was too much, the prices on crafting mats went down. Now another event, possible drops again.
    Others, are fairly upset about the fact that its not enough. The mount is not good enough. The rewards are not good enough.

    Can't please everyone. While, I have my own point of view on this subject, I'm glad that Enmasse is even doing these events at all.

    I did collect a lot Kyra, but I didn't went all crazy over it. Skipped days, because I was just physically tierd. I did 90% only red for mats and got plenty. So prices went down, boo hoo, they will go up in time. Yes it's hard to get gold via selling stuff, but people making it seems like it's their day job or something. Most people will complain about things, because they can take game as part of the entertainment.

    Yeah, I'd wait for the next one. I don't know if EME has ever changed the contents of a jackpot weekend before, but this event is virtually pointless - there's nearly no chance that you'll break even buying keys at even the normal, pre-jackpot price.

    Just to test things out. I used 250 keys out of the 7k I have and I got only one lousy jackpot worth 20k gold, that's it.
  • KanayuuKanayuu ✭✭✭
    Pretty sure EME just lowered the jackpot rate at this point.

    I really feel this event goes to show how out of touch EME is with their game. Alk and feedstock events were perfectly fine in the past. But we literally just had a kyras event fill the market with more consumables than people will probably use in the next year. The jackpots themselves are crap and the actual [filtered] jackpot rate is just another kick in the face. The only item worth getting from the event is a smart dyad, but instead it's in stacks of 1, instead of x2/3/5 like in the past. The character mount doesn't provide any benefits and looks like pretty ugly.

    To really put this event in perspective, strongbox key prices were actually higher before the event than now during it. Please consider redoing the event.

    They can't change the jackpot after the event has gone live.

    What they can do is make the next one better though.
  • xXJAJAXxxXJAJAXx ✭
    Yes, it has happened before. The question is whether EME is still in touch enough with the community to revive the event. In TR, keys are worth LESS right now then they were before the event even started. That is quite a problem.
