As for the chests, if you have a good suggestion of what they can be replaced with, I will be sure to pass it on
I'm thinking but maybe we could start with, why are they in the droppool in the first place?
I mean look at it from this point: There is a tombola coming with 3 new sets.
In order to get these 3 sets (or 1 or 2) I can either play for free and hope that I am really, really lucky to get everything or I can use nuggets to get a much better chance of getting the items I want.
So nuggets means real world money and if I invest into a game with real world money I want something out of it. For 150 nuggets which roughly translate into 3€ (or 4,35 AUD
) or even 800 nuggets (16€ = 23,23 AUD) I would like to get one of the items from the sets in that category.
I certainly don't want a chest for those 3€ containing items I can buy regulary from the town shop. Same goes for the premium chests, I don't want to have paid 16€ for an item which I possibly can find at work or otherwise is more or less useless compared with the actual tombola sets.
So I paid once for the tombola and I got a few chests and that feels like a bummer. Until the chests are removed I won't pay real world money for it again, just doesn't seem worth it.
Another thing is, you display what each tombola category contains, but nothing about the chests, at least, if there are chests to be won, say all what they could contain.
And finally, if you would only remove them to be replaced by something else then I would suggest more XP potions (there was/is a 25% one listed on the ID database), the longer premium features (like 2 weeks VIP package?) and the smaller reskill potions (on normal worlds).
Ideal tombola should look something like this:
Common Category contains the buffs like now and additionaly the hats and scarfs.
- Uncommon Category costs 25 nuggets/bonds and contains shoes, belts and higher XP potions, bond letters.
- Rare Category costs 100 nuggets/bonds and contains pants and jackets.
- Very rare Category costs 250 nuggets/bonds and contains the horses/saddles or rifles/weapons, the set chests and then maybe the shiny premium chest and reskill potion.
