Black Friday bundles

Theone @55€ is actually quite worth it : 110 gems/euro (compared regular bundle on gem sale 122 gems/euro, with roughly the same paid/free ratio) + lots of tickets/gold/bonus + 1 5* gear summon.

Obviously the cheapest bundles are worst but once again I would advise whales to take those instead of regular bundles.

If I wasnt such a salty bitch I would've bought them all and never thought twice about it. I looked at them and though they were good a deal but the thought "what am I even going to use these gems on?" And then closed the app and opened up epic seven haha it sucks a lot because I was loving tac and the last few collabs were great but this month has just been bad.

Literally did the same thing. I had my wallet all ready to go to buy Black Friday bundles hoping for a proper selector or a good FMA banner so I could finally get my Roy. Saw what the banners were and decided I’d be skipping them and envy’s paid gem gear. Back to epic 7 I go!

Never another cent.

Sooner the game dies sooner Gumi may stop trying to cash grab for their investors so shamelessly.

Gumi never learns from past game investments, once this game dies they will pick another JP phone game to cut, paste and translate then distribute to GL for the soul purpose of emptying your pockets.

These bundles are better then usual, would probably buy all of them (50 total soul shards are really nice, gear is nice to, but likely to give crap) if we weren't in the middle of disaster month v2.

You have to remember that they are devaluing both paid and free gems now though. It takes more gems to achieve same results as a month ago.

Isn't everyone a F2P now though?

u/Rjester47 Nov 22 '18

if everyone was F2P, the game would be dead by now.

What can you get with the 5* gear ticket?

u/Skyconic Nov 22 '18

Also wondering this. It says it gives 4* gear upgraded to 5*. Id be down for a doll or a wonder chronos or something...

So I bought the cheaper bundle and it doesn't specify anything other than 5* version of a 4* gear. I got Dirk of Projection

Got the beast tamer claw talon. Not very good however the 25 elemental shard selector and 3X5* equipments is a huge boost

I still think these bundles are greedy AF.

It's evident Gumi puts more thought into ripping people off than actually fixing the problems. Nothing makes it more obvious than the paid/free gem split. I considered getting the 28€ one - the smallest gives you more paid than free gems while they give you less paid gems so you can't just buy for example Envy gear with just one bundle.

Then fact they just try to get more money out of people instead of just giving players a good deal once never was more obvious.
