no more chasing silly azz gnomes for me
es for meKeep opening the orbs of chaos are more frequent
Ya these 1 common card are a joke, it should be at least 5 gnomes!
Only Cedric loots are buffed not the small gnomes drop.
Unfortunately Cedric is the one dropping those x gnomes card
Despite their rarity, I am sorely tempted to blow Major Orbs of Ascension on the Gnomes and Valraven. Which, one imagines, is precisely the point: encourage players to use the resource that most strongly limits their ability to craft Zuul’Goth, so that they stick around for even longer.
I am tempting on using it on Guild Guardian or even better for next guild Guardians that there are rumors that they might come.
I have to sigh and admit that last night in something like 15 total matches I got:
- 5 gnomes
- 2 Vault Keys yielding a lot of garbage but a Major Orb of Ascension
- 6 Arcanes
It made me think though: if I get just one good prize out of the gnome weekend I’m pretty happy. It’d be neat if the Vault had a difficulty spread like Bounty, where if you buff Cedric’goth to higher levels your prize pool is increased. High-end raid boss fights are a crapshoot, but I can’t deny I wouldn’t take a 10% chance at Cedric’goth if a win guaranteed a major chaos orb.
I am glad i didin’t use any orb yet, with the addition of pets and vault buff, i can now think of crafting zuul. Yesterday i crafted my first power orb and only need 1 major blue or 2 minor for a 2nd power orbs. Still 6 to go after this but this is a good start, if we look 1 or 2 month behind, this would still be mission impossible
Thanks for the vault buff again dev!
Lots of people are competitive so they do not want to see the same person win every time. That would be my guess.
OK, I’ve used quite a few Vault keys. I’m really not seeing much of a buff. The orbs are nice, but I’ve received Growth orbs in both cases. More often, the BUFFS look like this…
I got more lucky, i catched 1 major blue and 2 minor blue from vault
In the end I opened 20 vault keys this weekend, rewards from cedric were:
- 60k gold (x4)
- Minor orb (x9)
- Major orb
- 20 gem keys
- 2500 souls
- 100 gems
- 250 gems
- 50 diamonds
- Cedric
Seems orbs are way more common, and everything else much rarer… And I got lucky getting the highest gem reward once! Still missing the pet gnome troop though
I used 37 keys and I’m also missing Pet Gnome.
Perhaps you could recalculate the gem value of vault rewards after people get Cedric to Mythic? Each time he drops after mythic (15% of the time so far for me) it’s literally like only getting 100 souls.
Please return Cedric to his rarer drop chance and boost the common gnome drops to x5 at a time to compensate. It’s ridiculous that I now have LEGENDARY Cedric at Mythic buy only a few copies of the COMMON gnomes.
I think it’d be nice if they gave Cedric the Guild Guardian treatment: Mythic copy + 4 copies and it’ll stop showing up as a drop. People can then appreciate the improved frequency and at the same time eventually stop pulling extra.
+1 to this! Can we get that in 3.5?
Edit: I would like this applied to all Vault troops. When I spend a Major Orb of Ascension on Valraven, I don’t want to keep getting it!
should be done for all troops
