DO not buy any battlePass chests in General Discussion
OpinonatedAlpha

    I have bought 30 chests to try to obtain at least 1 rare, or ultra rare.
    I paid 100 dollars and I see them going for 160 dollars on the community market. How is this fair? What is the point of buying chests
    when most people buy it individually in the market to save money. I really want that DP set and why is it worth more than 1 arcana? Why do I have to pay
    100+ dollars. Gambling shouldn't exist in dota. It's a scam to earn more money and very greedy.

    I really l hope TI prize pool goes down this year. I won't be paying for any grind compendium again or treause as it's a waste of time, money
    and you got nothing from it. To those who try to make money on this game get a job. Thank you

          If you're expecting to get something marked "rare" or "ultra rare", it doesn't matter how many times you try, you don't even know the percentages, and even if the percentage for those drops were 5% and 1%, no amount of bought chests would GUARANTEE you getting any of those items. Actually, even if the percentage for getting both was exactly 99%, if there's no PRD system involved, you'd still not be guaranteed to get any of those items, even if you bought thousands of chests. Meanwhile some other guy buying only one chest can get both the rare and the ultra rare, with only one try. There's no justice in gambling.

          What is the point of buying chests when most people buy it individually in the market to save money.

          The point is to spend less money than you usually would for a set, and have a chance to get something worth much more. It's effectively gambling.

          I really want that DP set and why is it worth more than 1 arcana?

          Because currently there are more arcanas in the pool than there are those DP sets, it's considered valuable by the community and it's not easy to get it.

          Why do I have to pay 100+ dollars.

          Because you want to get it without waiting for the price to go down by it becoming available all over the place. You want a luxury, pay for it.

          Gambling shouldn't exist in dota.

          Then remove Phantom Assasin I guess. But seriously, why do you blame gambling when you're the one who made the mistake? You want something that goes for 160$, you spent only 100$ to try to get it, didn't get it, and you blame the system? It's all your fault actually.

          It's a scam to earn more money and very greedy.

          Nope, it's not a scam at all, it's actually a pretty low risk high reward thing, but it is the way valve earns money to keep this FREE TO PLAY game running. Nobody forces you to spend 100$ on chests, jesus, how can you blame other people for being stupid.

          I really l hope TI prize pool goes down this year. I won't be paying for any grind compendium again or treause as it's a waste of time, money and you got nothing from it.

          Nope, you get whatever it says you get, and there are different circumstances to get different things. If you spend 100$ fishing rare and ultra rare things and blame the system on not conforming to you, it's completely your fault and has absolutely nothing to do with the actual system you're faulting. As I said, somebody might get both rare and the ultra rare when he buys the first one, that's literally how RNG works.

          Valve's making money on this game, and that's their job. Meanwhile, if you thought that gambling with treasures is a decent source of income you're completely batshit insane, but at least you've realized that. The system is set up in such a way that some people will profit off of this, but at the same time, there'll be 10 times as many people who spend the money equivalent to buying that juicy new set from the market - not getting it in the end.

                    I would treat buying chests like I dot the lottery. I might buy one just for the hell of it, but I would never be as retarded as the OP and buy them over and over in hopes of an outcome that is HIGHLY improbable.

                    FFS you dont even KNOW the god damn chances on the chests.

                        Can't you buy the those chests at all without the battlepass? I assumed they would be in the treasury tab.

                            anyways what you should be doing is sell every treasure you get, and buy the individual items from the steam market. its not worth it to open unless u open 100+ chests since thats what those people who are selling individual items are doing (and they have the ability to receive rare items with higher probility unlocked)
