I realise it’s early to be asking (although there are some on the TP already) but does anyone know how likely it is to get the new minis from the new chests?

I have absolutely no interest in any of the other stuff in them, but I absolutely want the minis and I don’t know if I’d be best off buying chests (either with gold or real money, via gems obviously) or buying the minis from the TP. Or possibly trying to get them as drops but I suspect that will be much rarer than getting them from the chests, because obviously they want people buying the chests.

I know the patch notes said they’re very rare, but that’s a pretty vauge term, especially since it’s relative to the other stuff. It would be good to know how many chests other people have opened to get them.

i saw a thread with someone having opened 16 chests, but nothing.
i’d imagine rare should be at the very least up in the 50’s. but then again, it’s all probability. you could get it in the first chest, or you wouldn’t get it after the 100th or even more.

it’d be hard to tell for now, but good luck!!!

Hmm…I might just hedge my bets and try a bit of everything.

I’m obviously going to play the new content so I might get a drop (not with my luck!), I’ll buy some chests if I can afford it and if I don’t get them I’ll sell what I do get and put it towards buying them.

(And just for the record if anyone from Anet happens to see this I’m not complaining at the difficultly/random element of acquiring the minis. I was actually disappointed with the Halloween minis because with no challenge in getting them there’s no sense of achievement when you do and not really any desire to show them off “Hey look, I spent a few quid in the gem shop!” is no fun. I’m purely wondering how to best go about approaching the challenge.)
