Just spent my first and last $10 on gems to open a few chests. Not worth it by a long shot.
People will spend money when you deliver value, but the current suite of chest contents aren’t worth the money. Improvement needed.
Neverwinter’s nightmare chests are far more gratifying to open because the loot is better.
OK, I know this is in the area of tinfoil hats and everything, but in my experience, the results of the first BL key is usually pretty good. This got me wondering – because if it’s programmed like that, it would be pretty smart right? (you get the taste of success, so you continue gambling!). So I tested it, because using 25 keys at once rarely got me anywhere.
So, I used 1 key a day. Surprisingly, this netted me with consistent scraps, I’d say one to two full tickets per 25 keys. And if I didn’t get a scrap, I got another good result (e.g. an expensive BL item). It was slow, but at least I got my scraps. In this manner, I got at least twice as many scraps as I would opening many BL chests all at once. I’d really like to see the test results of others over, say, 25 days, but I also realize noone would be even remotely interested to replicate my crazy tinfoil hat experiment. Plus, this experiment was done before the recent overhaul, so it might be completely outdated information anyway.
I promise you, there are no secret mechanics involved in the chest openings.
Could you give an example of a secret mechanic in the Guild Wars 2 please?
There is a chicken in Tyria that you can try to kill, but you just make him angry, and you won’t like him that way.
