Ok I Did It.2854 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Anet, Is this item permanent in the game or a temporary limited time thing, even though it costs more i would invest in this over BLK's every day of the week, but kinda want to know if its perm or temp.

RoseofGilead.8907 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I would be very surprised if this ends up being a permanent thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I don't think they would sell packs of them if it was permanent. I'm sure it's one-time use only. Good until you get find the Skritt, likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blanche Neige.7241 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I hope it will be a permanent addition to the Gem Store. I never was a big fan of the BL keys, but this item I will certainly buy regularly if it's a permanent addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Presler.2561 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 wish this was removed asap! Gamble with gems even more :/ is this what guild wars is becoming, follow the big gamble simulators to make all the money in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blanche Neige.7241 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Gamble maybe, but at least, unlike the BL chests, you have a guaranteed unlock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far, the ones I've checked cost 400 gems or more on the TP.This is equivalent to a Guaranteed Wardrobe Unlock, only much cheaper: 200 gems, versus 15 statuettes (~2700 gems) or ~1000 gems if you roll for them using BL Keys.The loot might be randomized; that doesn't mean it's anything close to the same sort of value proposition we see from BL keys.

Blanche Neige.7241 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Before opening those, make sure you have unlocked all the cheap items (like dyes) you can buy on the TP.You can use this site : http://immortius.net.au/wardrobe-unlock-analyser/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloodstealer.5978 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Make sure you take a good look at the item you drop... I got a lovely Dynamics Glider.. only unlocked it once before so, I guess I cant be picky. Same thigs have happened with the wardrobe unlock from the BLC's.. at least you get the chance of a refund from support when it happens with BLC like I did.. will wait to hear from support on this though.

(It's almost certainly not affected by Magic Find either, but I've not actually tested that.)They actually do have a chance to scale if there are a lot of players around. I saw an elite knife tail gang skritt in one of the larger events in Cursed Shore yesterday.It does however not matter if you can kill it or not. The buff that holds the chance to spawn a skritt isn't affected by the spawning itself, but only reduces whenever you loot a package.From what I've seen happen yesterday the technical side of things is that you loot a(n auto-open) package from every skritt you kill, regardless of who spawned it. The buff doesn't care how many skritt you spawn but will tick down every time such an auto-opened package detects a buff on you and gives you the appropriate loot box. If you don't have any buff when after looting a skritt, the package will just drop a trash item (fur) in your inventory instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugo.4705 Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Mmh is it attended or not? When doing farm trains, skritts from other players spawn, when I kill them I have the suspicious bag item popping at the screen like I'm looting it, but when looking in my inventory have nothing after 6 skritts killed.
