Are you happy with the 1% chance of an event skin in the regular event cases?

Only if you limit it to one card

sure, if you want a shit card your chances go up to 5 times more like to get raped than to get a card.

Imho most mercs have 3 good cards, one for each primary.

I’d rather take 3½ leads from regular equipment cases, than one from a Suspect equipment case. In fact, I would rather have the old 0.3% chance and have them drop instead of regular cases, than this new system. My poll-choice would therefore be the non-existent “No, it should be a lower %.”

(Btw. They are called ‘suspect equipment cases.’ Event cases are the 100% drops.)

Opened 50k worth of cases for week 1 (cus what else am I gonna spent these on). Got two irons. gg Nexon

And for the same amount of credits, you could have bought 4 boosters, giving you a 40% chance of a guaranteed event case dropping, instead of a regular case. gg.

so it’s Nexon’s fault you have bad luck? This week I bought two 5 expert case bundles and got 2 golds out of eaach set.

you don’t know if it’s 40% … no one wants to confirm this. You basicly don’t know what you are buying. And even if it’s 10% for each booster on top of the 30% you need for a case drop at the end of a match… how 50k credits is ok? You play the game… appreciate it and shit on your time :smiley:

We do know that, because Exedore confirmed this on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Dirtybomb/comments/4dmqis/are_drop_boosters_even_remotely_worth_10_rate_of/d1srkxw

At default, the event case has a one percent chance to drop, instead of a regular equipment case, adding 10% for each booster. So your drop chances pr. booster to score an event case after each match is:

0 = 0.3%
1 = 3%
2 = 6%
3 = 9%
4 = 12%
5 = 15%
6 = 18%
7 = 21%
8 = 24%
9 = 27%
10 = 30%

[left]Yeah it’s fine, not a great improvement from before, but I want these to be rare anyway.

BTW, the reason they cost 3.5x more is because they give you skins for only 4 mercs so it’s actually cheaper. Though, you will get less event cards at least they have a better chance of being one for a merc you want. Plus you don’t need to spend credits to buy them either…

It’s the other stuff that makes it really worth it, boosters for guaranteed cases, 1 guaranteed in Elite 5 packs, 2 guaranteed in Elite 10 packs, awesome.[/left]
