Don’t buy em, and maybe they’ll stop making em.

I learned my lesson.

There were literally at least 5 topics about this and in every of them people suggested no to buy them, otherwise RngNet will think you actually like to play lottery with real money for virtual things.
“A fool and his money…”
…as the saying goes.

least you’ve learned your lesson, its only a matter of time before Anet will do something because with every new event more and more people get screwed over and start refusing to feed them money.
Well we are all know.. and dunno how and why still ppl using their cash shop inc my wife.
Also my wife bouth alot of ’em ( about 40ish ).. I told her you are spending our money for nothing. But she dont want to belive me.
Result ?
I’ll answer that with my wife’s words after 40ish crates .. not with mine, since if i start to talk about it, sure my words not will be very polite or acceptable…
“Arena.Net is very greedy thief nothing more than that… They are just wants our money with false hopes and broken game.”
I’m happy to pay for a weapon ticket directly, i will not pay for an rng box.
Anet, just sell the damm tickets directly. People would buy them and you’d not have so many kitten ed off players
Mhm, Give me something guaranteed and I will be more inclined to buy it. Otherwise, I will never buy a chest or keys for them.
Err just a point, you assume that the odds of one cool item are not less than .1% (per crate presumably) yet you only bought 10? Chances are still heavily in favour of gaining nothing.
The whole fool and his money thing applies aptly here if you can make an assumption about odds, then get annoyed that you didn’t get anything with distinctly unfavourable odds.
Other than that I agree, no more RNG please.
I completely agree… RNG is just terrible. If it wasnt for RNGiwould have had the christmass mini quaggan. Even now im still haunted by the fact i missed out…
If it wasnt for RNG i wouldve bought nearly anything they put in the gem store.
RNG items are the inly ones i NEVER buy, i just aboid them…

I try to warn ppl about it:) My roomie did the same.. such a waste tbh… very unfair in my opinion.. he kinda dropped playing gw2 due to all the LOW RGN:) I understand him, but still enjoy the game for all the other things it got beside RGN..
I’m so tired of people kittening about gambling and losing.
RNG is RNG.
People dont gamble because they like to gamble, people gamble cause they like to win.
If people were smart, they wouldn’t waste money on random chance. Yes, you could possibly win the jackpot, but odds are you will not.
Statistically speaking, gambling is always the incorrect decision. Here’s a very simple example: If you play just Black or Red, your odds of winning at Roulette and doubling your bet is ~47%, and losing is 53%.
This means, statistically speaking, you will end up losing money. And Roulette actually has some of the the LEAST unfavorable odds. I dare you to find a casino game with odds that DONT favor the house.
Spoiler Alert: They dont exist!
But why then do casinos exist? Why is there this gambling in the world, be it an airport slot machine or a box of randomized loot in a videogame?
Because people buy it. And as long as you are willing to spend your money, they’re willing to sell it to you.
ANET did not mislabel or misrepresent, they clearly stated it was RNG, thus your only gripe should be with your own decision.
Consider yourself lucky you likely only wasted a pittance, and look at this as a learning experience. It’s a much cheaper version of the lesson thousands of people learn every day at Las Vegas.
TL;DR The people who complain about the problem, are the cause!!
