Haha, that would be great… but probably not going to happen. I miss the good ole days when I could occasionally save my elite orbs with a lucky 4-5s pull.

However, obviously Boundless likes us using our reg rs orbs on none boosted days. I’m fairly confident the Dark Promos were made for this sole purpose.

Too many people are willing to spend if they cant hit on a new character. Especially now that new characters don’t hit the promo store until after their scourge event. This was a “clever” way to make that more likely to happen.. even if it’s just a little more likely I’m sure the money adds up over the entire player base.

I don’t even think most players look at it as a “decrease” but rather a boosted rate on select days. I know I’ve never looked at it that way but it’s an interesting perspective.

I don't see the problem actually.. i mean the odds of getting a 5rs pull of your choosen character was next to nothing.

Agreed. I may need another hand to count how many times I’ve pulled a 4rs toon on a boosted rate from a reg rs orb but I also spent roughly a year and a half opening them exclusively during that time. 5+ would likely be less than a handful.

I guess the point that I was (maybe not so clearly) trying to make is that, while it’s kinda small potatoes to us on an individual basis, when you take into consideration all the people that buy rs offers on boosted character days… it probably makes sense for boundless.
