RNGods decided to cheer me up after going to school

(frostyvampire) #1

So yeah, the summer vacation ended and I had to go to school today. But after completing a competitive game feeling completely unlucky (what are the chances to get matched with 4 players that all have 10 hours), I got a case drop and RNGods decided to be nice to me

This was my dream card (Aimee main, no hate please) and the only cobalt I wanted and didn’t have yet. I was thinking about trying to craft it during the crafting week but didn’t do it because the 1/9 chance is too low but I guess the 0.0006% chance of getting it from a normal case is what I needed .-. And it’s shard too! :smiley:
Who thought about getting your dream card from a normal case? Never stop dreaming and you will get what you want, this is the proof

P.S. Not sure if I should’ve posted this here or in off topic. If it’s the wrong forum please move it some mod, thanks

Nicee
I was lucky to get that loadout in gold. It’s my favorite Aimee card also

(Dysfnal) #5

I hate you. If you have read any of my posts about loadout cards, you know how much I want that

@Dysfnal
Never stop dreaming. You will get it too one day. Try to save as many cards and grand as many credits as possible and next time we get an event or the crafting prices get changed, recycle them all at once and craft cobalt Aimee cards until you get it.

@defentialDriver
You should’ve recycled it and made a new card last week (maybe Remburg Proxy or a different merc). SMG Proxy sucks, shotguns are way better especially for Proxy because of how squishy she is and the fact engineers have to push all the time. But at least it’s shard and shard is sexy :slight_smile:

For all the others, thanks guys and especially RNGods, I knew praying every day will help me one day

damn I so want this card. Stark with drilled is a must on all mercs that have Stark.

@Baz
Thanks and noice. This is a really good Stoker card.
Quick Eye + AUG, Kukri and 2 other amazing perks. I hope you like Stoker so you can use it (but shame it’s fragment though)

Hey Frosty I do indeed like Harold and i was part of #TeamStoker during the REV event although i must admit i don’t use him as often as i used to.
I was real pleased to get this Cobalt from a reg Equipment case because i did think about crafting one last week but decided to just keep using my Special edition REV Stoker or my Gold but hey :sunglasses:

I like fragment as well as shard really so it’s all good.

Nothing will ever tear me apart from my Gen 1 S95, even if it is bamboo

(frostyvampire) #14

@Dysfnal
What’s wrong with Bamboo? It’s a pretty good skin and I like the fact it’s wooden.

At least it isn’t Swiss. Swiss looks so gross on 90% of the mercs and weapons. Before I got my cobalt 383 Sparks I had a gold one which was Swiss but I never used it because it was so ugly, I had to use a shitty suspect card instead

(MatteMG) #15

Had the exact same, traded it in for a cobalt stoker.

(frostyvampire) #16

@MatteMG
Wow, that was stupid. F82 is the best Aimee card

Only recycle horrible cards, like Blishlok and PDP loadouts

(Dysfnal) #17

I think bamboo is the ugliest skin for the gun, but the best for the character. And Swiss is amazing on guns, and alright on character. crown is in the middle.

I don’t like the green metal, that’s why. I would prefer crown over Swiss on the stark, but on the Grandeur (which I use a LOT) I prefer Swiss, it just looks so much better

(Dysfnal) #18

Also, blish is love, blish is life, only recycle blish cards if they’re on Bushwhacker, because his playstyle complements the Blishlok so well (line up dem headshots)

(frostyvampire) #19

@Dysfnal
Yeah I don’t like the green metal either, but I like the fact it’s wooden.
Swiss is good only on a few specific guns that end up having a lot of red on them (like the Grandeur), but on 80% or more it looks meh and on Sparks it looks ultra ugly because her guns have no red at all
Crown is the best though, looks good on all guns and all characters. But I don’t use gold cards at all. #OnlyCobalts (and special edition/bronze for mercs I don’t play much but I’m saving for cobalts for them)

Blish is pretty bad. I have a BL32 Fletcher and I hate it, I use MP9 as my primary and Blishlok only if I run out of ammo and to finish enemies.
On Aura it makes no sense because she is squishy and needs the 1 shot shotgun ability, also she is a defensive merc and should only fight enemies that push her, which means 90% of the time she will fight at close range fights. Not sure who would prefer a low fire rate SMG over an insta kill shotgun at close range.

On Sawbonez and Bushwanker I don’t even have to explain. Kek-10 > Crotzni/SMG9/Hochfir >> Blishlok

The wood part of Bamboo guns is nice, but the yellow on metal parts is ugly as fuck :frowning: I wish those parts were something like “gunmetal silver” as HTC describes the color of my phone.
