1 skin out of 24 chests-20usd paid for gems (22 keys bought 2 more dropped from chests).
Now not going to complain about the skin drop-its a rare item and whatever (the skin i got wasn’t the one i hoped for but oh well).
But i would like to issue a complaint about the useless garbage that i ended up with. the mountain of SOULBOUND gathering gear-why aren’t these ACCOUNT BOUND like the rest of the items?
Having 6 toons i could spread them out and not clutter one toon’s pack with them, and since they can’t be sold i can’t even recoup some in game cash for the real world cash i spent.
Please for the love of whatever god you pray to PLEASE REMOVE THE MYSTERY TONICS…i don’t use them and they are just fodder…again a useless item that cannot be sold, yet oddly enough are account bound, as are the boosts but the gathering equipment isn’t account bound? why not?
If people are going to complain about something complain about the return on investment that isn’t being met-tonics that serve no purpose and items that can be used but restricted to one toon are silly and reduce any value the chests might have. Neither the tonics from the chest nor ANY of the gathering gear can be sold.
I could have spent all my gems on the boosts which would have been far more valuable than wasting them on the chests since there isn’t anything else of value in them but the boosts.
If you want to fill them with trinkets and baubles that are this crappy please at least give us the option to sell the junk or pass it on to a lowbie alt who might make use of them instead of what we have now.
Skin rate could be better but again i’ve no desire to waste any more money on tonics and gathering gear i don’t need and can’t give to an alt because its bound to me only and can’t sell because its all soul/account bound.
I don’t mind the buying of gems with real money but when you use those gems to open chests that are really full of worthless junk its just stupid.
Really the stuff in the chests is right up there with the prize in a box of cracker jack…but at least that prize you could sell
(and for anyone interested i still have 28 chests if anyone wants them-free since they are only worth 6cp each on TP and its not worth my time/money to post them)
