Well actually it's easier for me to get rubies now with the daily missions- although they are not much. But a good introduction

That's a nice offer, but I'm already VIP 6. Otherwise I'd probably take you up on it.

But, I'll be honest, I think getting three out of five golds in that pack was a godsend. I've bought that pack before and it is usually closer to 1 gold card and 4 silver cards... or 2 gold cards and 3 silver. I did get one diamond before. I think I've only bought about 10 packs so far.

How about the people in the forum? What have you been seeing when you buy the Lucky Stars pack?

And, ebc, I do have one question. Before this new patch (1.6.1?) you had it so if you purchased a "Legend of the Gods" pack, it would guarantee one epic, but the rarity wording has been updated to not guarantee that. Does this mean that you might not even get an epic if you purchase this pack? You also don't put the chance down like the other cards (gold = common; diamond/legend = high chance), what would you consider epics in this patch? Rare?

I bought about 10 packs and I think the best I got was
3 Diamond, 1 Gold, 1 Silver.
6-7 of them were 1 Gold 4 Silver as usual
The others 2 Gold 3 Silver, I think one was 1 Diamond, 1 Gold, 3 Silver
I'm just slightly annoyed right now I keep getting the same cards.
Today I finally got my first Pierce trigger!
Still waiting for Enchantress and Gargoyle.

Just interested, what do you all think about some kind of trade system?
At least Silver cards and Gold cards could be made tradeable with friends or something.

That means:
4 Diamonds (156 rubies)
11 Gold (165 rubies)
35 Silver (175 rubies)

That's 496 rubies for 24,980 gold. 24980 / 496 = 50.36 gold per ruby. As a reminder: The cost used to be 39.975 per ruby.

As for a trade system? I dunno... it sounds like something real (too) easy to abuse.

Trade system would be dope. I feel it might be in the works. It makes a lot of sense.

Side note, the Enchantress isnt that good. I dont think... Its very situational.

True, and the Gargoyle got nerfed. It isn't my go-to card anymore. /cry

I just want 3* quests thats all. 3 Skeleton Archer can't be that hard in 10secs lol. Well they are if your only AoE cards are Maid, Storm Elemental and Lich ^^

Got Gargoyle now! And this booster had 1 Dia 2 Gold 2 Silver.

The content of packs doesn't change, means you still get epic from the pack guaranteed. (We will try to improve description of epic again)

We just improve the descriptions on the packs, because players misunderstood the change. From the statistics, we see there is 100+ Legend cards given out per day in packs purchased with coins.

ecb_admin.

Is there any way you guys can guarantee that with purchases of the Legacy of the Gods (Epic) Packs that we will get an Epic we dont already own?

It is a very big investment to spend $75 ish to get an Epic Pack. And i just got another Phoenix card. That card is awful by the way. Even if it gets reborn is gets wrecked immediately. It is too weak.

I would absolutely buy more packs if I was guaranteed Epics I dont have already. But as of now, I dont see myself buying another one. Its not worth it in the slightest.

Its a small favor to ask when spending such a price. Please consider.

Your well-paying customer,

Really? That is good to hear.

Suggestion on how to describe your packs:

Lucky Stars
Silver card (60% chance)
Golden card (30% chance)
Diamond card (8% chance)
Legend card (2% chance)

Legacy of the Gods
Golden card (55% chance)
Diamond card (30% chacne)
Legend card (12% chance) - guaranteed at least 3
Epic card (3% chance) - guaranteed at least 1

Or, you know, what the actual chances are.

You don't need to describe epic cards, you already have those in the description.
