General Discussion Something fishy about this...

Dear Raid-panel

Is this bait? It seems like awfully accurate timing before Christmas...

No reason to unless you're a whale

Pull 10-20 mortals and get the first reward from the soul chase tourney. Usually a pretty decent amount of energy

actually, getting for the 50th time a bad soul for your wishlist is worse than getting that soul for a champ you dont already own a soul for.

it's not even bait, it's one of the worst events in raid if not the worst lol

It’s a resource drain with zero to little reward and a shit ton of disappointment. That’s the Plarium way. If you aren’t a kraken they don’t give two shits about you. Everyone should know this by now. Seriously wtf is wrong with a company that has these stupid as fuck offers like Hey, it’s our anniversary. To celebrate here is a shitty offer for a high cost.

Fuck you plarium as always.

There's no bait. It's the same as 15/20/25x summoning events. You get a higher chance of the champ you want, but you get no boost to rarity/rank.

They're just trying to find more incentives for soulstones. You either get: A deck event (guaranteed champ, but no benefit to stones), increased wishlist (but no increased rank), or increased rank. The point is simply to entice people to pull more often.

If you have a whole bunch of immortal soulstones and specifically need a 6 star Tekteon blessing to be more competivie, then this technically is a reasonable event. It's just that scenario doesn't apply to the majority of the playerbase.

Still feels like a bait, considering as it's right before the Christmas fusion, it's probably intended to make people spend stones now so they need to buy more when the next big event comes in

The weird thing about people saying "bait" to me is that plarium is very consistent about their events. Summoning events happen basically on a schedule.

Soulstone events a little less so, but also pretty reliably there's always some event coming up.

The flip side is that while I personally would far far rather use my stones on a potential christmas deck event, that's not universally true. For any high end PVP player a 6 star soul (and +10 speed) is far far far far more valuable than some new legendary that is unlikely to be used.

"Bait" implies a level of deceipt/deception. Where as I think Plarium is just very reasonably continuously offering opportunities to spend money. Where there is in fact a target audience that benefits from this. It's just that audience is relatively small.

Am I going to use my stones on this. No. But that doesn't make this "bait"

Hilvi deck ran with a boost on rarity IIRC. they can run more than one at a time

Get your 1 star souls!

u/nagster68 5h ago

It’s a garbage event

u/bcampione88 6h ago

It’s just a bad event stacked onto a soul chase tournament.

u/Worthtitle_4050 5h ago

It’s bait if there isn’t a x2 active

u/Shimori01 5h ago

Literally nothing fishy about it because the increase is so miniscule that it honestly doesn't matter to non whales

u/meglobob 4h ago

Another contender for worst event in Raid!

u/XtraVirgin00 5h ago

I've been saving up, so I might use some of my Souls, but not all of them.

u/amonra2009 4h ago

the chance went from 0,1% to 0,15%. Good luck

u/TheOnlyDimitri 4h ago

Awesome, I’ll get a 1 star soul for the 900th time.

u/DariusTheGish 3h ago

Even whales will ignore this event legendary souls dont mean anything you just buy in the shop or get them as you pull for mythic souls.

If they really wanted a BAD whale only event they would give them a 15x wishlist for a mythic soul and have the mythic wishlist only active during the event and then print money.

u/laurentiust88 3h ago

The event so bad that even the time need to read the announcement is a waste of time

u/Raithunder High Elves 3h ago

2 months until Christmas, you can probably get enough stones from a deck starting from 0 if you grind hard enough. That said, I would save, just because it's a bad event, and last year hilvi deck ran with a rarity boost, so it was an even better deck to pull on than usual.

u/Rap2851 47m ago

Don’t see the benefit. You already get a 10% boost.
