Guild Wars 2

For me the consortium chests were a massive disappointment, I spent ten bucks on gems and tanked my in game gold to buy a pack of 10 chests thinking that It would give me the best odds of getting some cool looking skin. Turns out they are all butt ugly and worse yet, many of them are just clones of each other which sucks the aesthetic fun out of them as well.

As a result I will NEVER been investing real money(or even gold) towards gems in the future if a ‘random chance’ is involved I dont care if there are freaking ascended items inside not only were they a huge let down and a waste of money but when all was said and done I didn’t even gain a enjoyable change to any of my characters visually.

My suggestion is in the future, do your RNG chests with bind-on-use skins but take the time to add interesting soulbound skin/skinkits to your style tab of the gem store so there is something …y’know….NEW there.

That or take all this island garbage and give me my kitten 1400 gems back you cardsharks. (well I did sell the ugly light tiki head skin for 35 silver or so.)

Perhaps you should have done research as to what you could get from the chest before you purchased them… ? I know there was information about them on Dulfy.net.

Never heard of dulfy but that wasnt entirely my point, why have a style section in the gem store and not put new skins in there? (or hell even more town outfits.)

These chests are a lottery thing and they appeal to the gambler type of players. Probably they saw the success they had with the chests for Halloween, so they decided it more worth for them this way then just put them in the store.
Personally, I would buy style things and minis, even weapon skins but I am not gambling. So they lost me for a buyer if they continue this.

I bought the miniatures in Halloween because they were a sure thing and you could store them safely.

I’m not paying for items that have no collection slot or are not unlocked account-wide, and I’m not paying for random chances.
