All or Nothing Appearance Package (2000 gems)

Retail Values: 2150

A modest discount if you planned on buying all the items at retail. However, the key feature is the pair of Onyx|Gold Lion weapon skins you can choose, since that can't be bought directly. So good deal if you want the outfit & sword skin and the Onyx|Gold Lion option.

Revisiting: War Eternal Supply Drop Requistion

The cost has increased to 2550 (from 2400). Is it still a good deal?

The wiki has a summary of all the items and their retail or TP values at:https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/War_Eternal_Supply_Drop_Requisition#Notes

As you can see from the wiki's list, it's a minimum of 4410 gems worth of value, assuming you would (or might be likely) to buy everything in it.


Here's the calculus I used to decide to purchase:

  • 2400 gems is the same cost for two select MountFit licenses and there are at least two I was considering already. The rest would be gravy. 100 gems is worth the cost of everything else in the package.
  • 2310 gems is the cost of two deeply discounted select licenses (1680) plus an outfit voucher (630); 90 240 gems is worth the cost of everything else in the package.

or tl;dr it remains a strong discount, the best Evon Gnashblade has offered to date(assuming you want at least two select MountFits, plus any other major item)

@"Astral Projections.7320" said:Black Lion Expedition Contract 1000 gems, which drops selections from the BL Delivery Box/ExpeditionBlack Lion Hunters Contract 1200 gems, which drops selections from the BL Delivery Box/Expedition

At current exchange rates, these contracts cost 350|420 gold worth of gems respectively. To pay for themselves within two years, they'd have to generate roughly half a gold per day, which seems extremely unlikely. Thus the economically-minded will prefer to save their gold and buy what they want from the TP.

For the Hunter's version, the most valuable option (on average) is currently totems at around 36 silver, i.e. 131 gold per year, so over 3 years to break even at today's market rates.

For the Expedition version, there's no available drop data. One interesting possibility is using it to collect account bound mats or currencies native to the zone chosen. For example, the Maguuma Wastes option has the potential to drop around a dozen bandit crests or geodes. If those currencies drop daily, then 2-3 months might be enough for various "Gen 2.5" legendary collections (the twelve later ones that are just material sinks). That's a big "if" and I'll update this when we have some data.

10% offWar Eternal Supply Drop Requisition 2700 gemsThis remains one of the best discount packages, even at the less substantive10% off. The retail value of the "big four" items is 3660 gems, a 27% discount... without counting all the other items

5 keys normally costs 450 gems, so this is essentially two free ticket scrapsi.e. if you regularly buy 5 keys at a time, this is a great deal(if you don't, this isn't a good enough financial reason to start doing so)

The Deluxe Upgrade packages are on sale for 50% off their usual gem prices. The PoF is a good deal versus retail prices; the HoT is so-so

This is a good discount package. It represents about 3400 gems of (retail) value, including 1800 gems of items that people often get. 1200 gems is even 25% off the retail price for just the name contract plus character slot (retail = 1600 gems).

  • Identity repair kit (make over kit + name change contract) — 1000 gems retail (includes 1150 gems of value, bought separately)
  • Sunspear Outfit — (not sold separately; outfits typically sell for 600-800 gems)
  • Lily of Elon/VIP area in Amnoon — (not sold separately; exclusive trading spots are 1000 gems typically)
Heart of Thorns Deluxe Upgrade: 2400 gems retail 1200 gems

If you were planning on getting a toon slot and like the skins, this is a modest savings versus buying equivalent items (although these specific ones are exclusive to this package).

  • Heart of Thorns Glider skin — (not sold separately; gliders typically run 400-700 gems)
  • Mini Rev Rytlock — (not sold separately; minis typically run 200-400 gems)
