One of the several signs in my station says;
A good tattoo ain't cheap. A cheap tattoo ain't good.
Amazing how many ppl will settle for garbage because his "cuz can do it in the garage fer $20".
This is why I don't mind that boxes are overpriced. Whales can spend their piles of money and support Trion if they want, but they won't get a significant advantage over me. I drop some money into the game from time to time, but I get my loot from just playing.
cornucopia boxes treated me Really good last night bought 5 and got 3 named weapons both the best of the event and 2 of one of those.
It's all RnG tho i've bought plenty without out getting any at all in the last almost 2 years and I don't think they're over priced either, but I do think the price raise to 600 on the epic mod horde was crappy tho or at least I don't remember it being that much when it came out, lol
reminds me of happy wars.....
Never mess with paid gambles I used play another MMO had the gamble system ever heard of Atlantica Online? lol that gamble system robbed many rich addicted people I'm sure. In that game i"d just buy the things you could get directly sell it for in game money then buy the item people spent 1000s to get where i spent maybe $50. Unfortunately no auction house in defiance but probably for the best because be bots and gold er scrip sellers. The gamble system is made for people that have more money then brains because the game company wins 75% of the time just like casinos the house wins way more than the player.
For the people who spend hundreds of dollars only to get ripped off by RNG, just remember that their is no such thing as a game changing item in Defiance. Unlike 99% of MMOs out their, no one can make them self invincible through the raw spending of money. I don't spend money on defiance any more and never will, and I have no problem with whales spending thousands, because all they get at the end of the day is a bit more scrip than me and maybe a few hundred damage on a weapon. I can casually pick up a purple FRC big boomer that does 30k damage modded without any hassle. Then comes the whale who spends $500 to get an abaddons touch that does only a tad bit more damage, hardly any difference. So I just laugh when people say in clan chat that they spend a few hundred on boxes to snag a jackpot or spent a few million scrip on a HF AR, because it's all a joke. None of the lockboxes are worth it and never will be.
