Sunday packs are always worth buyng. But for regular ones… are they worth it?
You spend 300 gems weekly and get 120 diamonds and 2400 shards = 24 diamonds.
300 gems = 144 diamonds
which means
1 Mythic = 8333.3 gems (via regular 50 gems packs)
1 Mythic = 2381 gems (via Sunday 50 gems packs)
On the other hand, if you have access to VIP chests:
1 Mythic = 100 VIP chests = 4500 gems
So, how do I spend my gems?
Regular 50 gems Dungeon packs | VIP chests |
---|---|
Can target a specific Mythic | Random Mythic* |
Can’t pull new exclusive Mythics | Can pull them |
Higher gem/Mythic ratio (8333 gems) | Lower gem/Mythic ratio (4500 gems) |
No risk of pulling a dupe/unwanted Myth | The risk increases with number of Myths you own* |
Perfect for targeting old Myths | Perfect for pulling new Myths during their exclusive period |
Need to wait for a wanted Myth to appear in Soulforge | Perfect for newer players with few or no Myths |
Can use jewels to craft Celestials (2 stones for 300 gems) | Get lots of Arcane/Celestial traitstones, Epic/Legendaries to ascend |
*not valid during exclusive periods
If I had VIP 5, I’d save 4500 - 9000 gems for future Myths and spend surplus on regular Dungeon packs.
