Guild Wars 2

I laugh at all whom purchase items from the gem store. You are only harming yourselves with such endeavours.

Nah.

I bought my infinite axe, pick, and sickle so I could stop worrying about whether or not I had forgot my Copper Logging Axe was in hand when I was moving through Orr, or when trying to snipe the Orichalcum node at the top of the Karka hive with a Mithril Mining Pick.

I considered all three very nice purchases. If only for the convenience factor of no longer carrying five gathering tools in a bag so I didn’t “waste money” with a Mithril Pick while in Queensdale or Wayfarer’s Foothills. Or waste gathering in Orr or Frostgorge . . .

You was lucky to get one 1 Claim Ticket. But I agree with you.

How about letting players have the chance to buy Claim Tickets outright cash only. And have open world RNG chests to obtain them for free.

I only care for transactions that are like proper purchases; i pay the gems, i get my stuff, all in 9one transaction, end of story. I only despise paying in gemstore for “a chance” to get the item, because no matter what they say, common or rare, in truth its all VERY RARE.

Kreedz.8127:

$50 & Some gold = 4500 Gems

4500 Gems = 50 BL Keys

50 BL Keys = 50 Chests Opened

Results:

1 Claim Ticket
13 Claim Ticket Scraps
22 Support Reminder bags
0 BL Keys

You’ve effectively put me off purchasing anything from your gem store for a good while, Until I decide you guys have stopped treating us like stupid cattle.

Regards,
Formerly Paying Customer.

Wow you really are the original spoilt brat… only thing I see here is someone who failed to master the game of chance and proceeded to throw toys out of the pram.

You knew the risk, you chose to spend the coin.. but you did WIN.. at wasting your money and your time writing this thread.

You got a skin? That’s awesome!
For 1 skin in Dwagon Bash I spend $30 & 6k+ chests farmed to get one.

There’s a reason playing the lottery is also refered to as paying the Stupid Tax…Same idea applies to the lock boxes.

You could have just bought the skins off the broker and call it a day.

Then he’d have even less skins :p He actually got a good amount more than he would have if he sold the gems for gold.

So it went well for him. Why the QQ thread then?

Because…

Esplen.3940:

BUT HE DIDN’T GET WHAT HE WANTED. HE WANTED 10 CLAIM TICKETS, 20 KEYS, 5 MORE CLAIM TICKETS, 3 COFFEES, 2 FERRARI’S, AND A BEACH HOUSE.

caps lock included.

dude be happy u got 2 skins…from 50 bl chests i got just 10 scraps.

Please buy more gems, OP. Help Anet fund Cantha expansion.

Even thought I don’t like how they are putting the gemstore to use and have wasted myself money on it as well I’m actually feeling like you should have got 0 tickets and 1 scrap if not 0 just by posting such a unreflected thread asking for more and more without any reasoning.

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

Albert Einstein

Actually not an Einstein quote, actually a quote from a Narcotics Anonymous text. So, super relevant?

You know, content doesn’t get invalid if it ’s not coming from a famous person so thats not a valid reason. The quintessence is still there, even when it ’s not completely correct in terms of singularity.

but instead most people are hypnotized by some long lost god … like many people on Earth. The irony.

Well at least in GW2 the gods were once real…

You are in for a real shocker one day.

Here’s my advice to you. Evon Gnashblade is going to win the election. Wait until he does, then buy the keys while they’re on sale. Then kitten about spending too much money. The tickets aren’t going anywhere after the event. At least not from what I read.

I bought one 5 stack of keys and got one scrap from it. That was enough warning for me to leave that RNG crap the hell alone.

50$ for 1 skin is indeed a rip off. It’s really not any better than those My Little Pony games where you need to pay 10e to change colour of the background of the game.

Go on, go tell that to a casino.
You know you were gambling, but you still whine about it.
You are not ripped off by arenaNet, but by yourself.
