Sakai Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I've been told that the packs also have a chance for merits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas Titan Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I finally got around to buying one today to try it out. I got 2 team inspirations, 5 converters, 1 respec and 1 build snow beast temp power. Needless to say I will not be buying another. Total waste of 25 million. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MunkiLord Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I agree. I've found the other two packs to be much more consistently worth the influence. 1 The Trevor Project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they designed the packs so that on average you will end up with at least one winter-o, but the problem with averages is that sometimes you are below average. Who run Bartertown?

So just for sake of my sanity I went ahead and bought another one, I got 2 Inspirations, 1 Snowbeast, 1 Experienced, and 1 Respec. I must be drawing the short straw. This time I will seriously not waste the INF again. HA HA HA 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first netted me an IO with the other two giving me pretty this type of thing. From now on, I am either using merits or just buying Winter IOs on the market when I want sets from those garbage packs. I don’t mind spending Influence, however. I can’t stand wasting it.

cyvert Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I buy these things in stacks of 10, 30 or 50 and routinely get more than that in winter IOs (or ATOs if going for super packs instead). I dont recommend buying one and hoping for the best, they arent a cheapskate's game. Get some real dough and let'er rip. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm going to buy twenty of them when I get home just for shits and giggles. I will share my results. I'll also buy 20 each of the two cheaper packs to see how they compare. I realize with such a small sample size it won't be definitive. But I'm curious, bored, and need an excuse to blow some influence.

MunkiLord Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 So I bought 20 Winter Packs: Team Inspirations 18 Brain Storm 520 Candy Cane 55 Boosters 1 Winter IO 26 Snow Beast 7 Experienced 4 Unslotter 28 Free Tailor 2 Reward Merits 200 Converters 7 Respec 1 Winter Ward 1 Windfall 2 Frost Bite 1 Bought 25 each of the other two packs, didn't record everything I got from them. But the 25 Hero/Villain packs got me 27 ATOs and 125 Merits and the Rogue/Vigilante packs got me 26 ATOs and 275 Merits. Spent a billion total on this and while I haven't done the math, if I were to sell all the IOs and use the merits for converters I think I came ahead. But this was tedious and now I have a tone of team inspirations dirtying up my character items. 1 The Trevor Project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyvert Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 That looks about right as far as turn out goes typically. At that amount you almost always come out ahead by a bit. The whole bit is tedious but alot of the methods for making influence via the market are a bit on the tedious side. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robotech_Master Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Not to mention 13 million Inf in Rare Salvage from the Brain Storms, 60 million Inf from turning the 200 reward merits into cash, and all the extra Inf and drops you could get from farming for a couple hours with the Windfalls on...

Texas Titan Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 So I went ahead and had some extra Inf and tried it again.....this one kind of makes up for the first two loser packs. LOL 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
