Dreamreaver.4908 Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 In general, "rare" in this game has been taken to ridiculous levels... It's actually anti-fun at some points. To me, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I killed the mushroom every day (without missing a day) for 3 years and didn't get one. I know at least 40 other people who killed it multiple times a day for over 2 years without a drop. Of the 7 people I know who have them, they bought them on the TP, not a single one was a drop. Talking to the few people on GW2efficiency who have them, none of them got them as drops, they bought them on the TP. I don't know how they are getting listed on the TP, but they don't actually drop in game.They dropped before but maybe not anymore. This is one of the reasons why i am not buying gems for gold conversion. No more.A guildie of mine dropped the invisible boot box 2 days ago, on eu, tangled depths, while waiting for the morning meta. Another dropped aurilium infusion the same day, next meta AB (we ran a meta train). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, it matches well with my bare hands ^^Hi Mil: I guess that's fair enough point and we all like different stuff. Personally I just begrudge any player spending such a crazy amount either gold or gems on a skin that isn't really a skin at all: I mean how much creative artistic design, and coding goes into making an invisible skin? lol - but we're all different and if you like bare-footedness invisible skins then I'm happy for you. But really the drop rate is sooo infeasibly low from those Treasure Mushrooms to get such a skin, and of all the awesome things in the game you can purchase with gold, its insane the prices they command in TP for what they are, merely due to the scarcity. But yea I'd prefer better just chuck them in Gemstore as an optional purchase for 450-500 gems and put an infusion drop from Treasure Mushrooms: Maybe an invisible infusion would be nice !?! :lol: :lol: :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vyrulisse.1246 Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 No. Games like these NEED extremely rare and sought after items that are obtained in the game or earned through insane gold grinding and buying it yourself if you can. This game actually needs more of that kind of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the whole point. To make it less prestige. Unlike infusions or legendary weapons with high stats, the slippers are totally cosmetic.Auras are cosmetic too, and those are prestige items...so what is your point?@Ubi.4136 said:@Mil.3562 said:Ok since i am not playing WvW anymore, i will try farming for them.

It's inconsistent and annoying. And it was an outrage back then. And now I see 80% defending this kitten attitude...People have always been defending this, just like they will defend all prestige items that are subject to RNG...I will defend it and I don't even care about such items, but I do care about the design decisions and the ramifications of changing something because of a vocal minority.

Adding it as a skin was as simple as creating a new item, whereas hiding a slot requires them to change the code. The old code has always been a hurdle for them and whenever they want to do something like this, it seems nobody knows how and it takes months just to get started.

They can literally make money off nothing. Its like selling air, some people would buy it.Or dehydrated Water, to rehydrate just add water. People buy this stuff.Another thing.... its for the user immersion into the game, no one can see your invisible shoes inside a meta blob, can barely see my Norn swinging his Sunrise amongst all the visual clutter.

skoda.4619 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Ye sure, just because you can't save up the gold to get it if you want it that much, we should put every drop that's attainable in-game and gives players prestige on the gemstore so theres nothing to work towards anymore. If it's too much work i guess you don't want it that much.You get mystic coins and laurels if you just log and if you really want to buy it for gems, buy gems and convert them to gold.Stop with these silly ideas.

Sugar Min.5834 Posted November 27, 2019 Author Share Posted November 27, 2019 I wonder if most of those invisible footwears listed in the TP are from ANet? It actually make sense.The footwear costs about 3k gold in the TP and when you convert those to gems, based on 50g = 200 gems, it cost around $150 real money.If it were to be on the gem store and selling at 2k gems, it's only $25...Greedy.
