Guild Wars 2

I’d really like to not play the RNG game, as I believe gambling with real money in a video game is a terrible marketing decision for any company to get into. Reminds me of that awful Atlantica game.

So how about a deal? I give you so many gems and I can pick the dye I want.

I bought one of your dyes with an exclusive chance to get something nice, what do I get? A common dye I already had, so I spent real money on your game for NOTHING.

So yeah I’m complaining, but I am also saying that I would give you money if you would just had a RNGless option.

I’m willing to bet they make more money than RNG than they would without it.

Just buy your dyes from the Trading Post then. There’s no RNG associated with that.

Unfortunately, the TP option is the only way to reliably get these dyes. I’d rather buy them from Anet, too, but as long as RNG is a factor, I won’t be giving them my money.

OK so I did some gameplay for a couple hours yesterday, I made about 3 gold

I wake up, check the TP, the price of cyanide dye jumped 5 gold in a single night

so i’m actually BEHIND

help

Maybe so, but not from me.

100 gems = 5g
800 gems = $10 = 40g

Cynaide = 35g = 700 gems

No, no you can’t. Monetization Manager wants you to gamble for dyes, so don’t buy them at all, otherwise they’ll keep making crappy RNG items and selling them for gems.
