  1. I like the Arcane idea however instead of any Arcane I would rather see a dedicated one that adds 2-3 Capacity per Rank. This would create an interesting trade off where you would need to sacrifice advantage from regular Arcane for some extra wiggle room.
  2. Than you but can someone take a look at Krios Signa? It seems to have colour channels messed up.
  3. Can you take a look at Krios Signa? Pretty sure it has colour channels messed up as stated in few posts.
  4. While we're at it, helmets could use separate colouring as well.
  5. Or you can search for someone with good roll to trade Liches.
  6. It's cute how people automatically treat this as a new standard and not as an exception. Well, maybe it's truth, time will tell but for now consider this: Heirloom Collection never meant to be cheap, in fact artificial value increase via inclusion of Royal Aya and Platinum is obviously intentional. Why? To limiting availability and therefore give those skins "luxury goods" status. Those are not some everyday Deluxe skins - this is Prada or Gucci of skins, this is limited edition commemorative Rolex. They aren't intended for everybody, just only a small group of players dedicated enough to dish out such a sum of money. Otherwise they would end up as just another cheap piece collecting dust in closet. Oh, and don't get me wrong - I'm 100% ok with it as long as it's once-in-10-years thing.

  9. Or it could be 3.500 x 95$ vs 10.000 x 30$. We don't know enough even to speculate numbers. However, story of The Boring Company and 20.000 and their "It's not a flamethrower" sold for 500$ a piece shows that there is a market for such things.
  10. Aye, this is my main concern as well, although from my understanding it is a deliberate action. Artificially bloated price limits availability to give those skins "luxury goods" status and make them more rare - from my understandings, it was never aimed at everybody, only a small group of players dedicated enough to dish out such an obnoxious sum of money. That being sad, I do hope that DE will add more purchase options but I wouldn't keep my breath for it.
  11. ^This. Plus Twitch drops are nothing new, last years goodies (as well as many minor things) were also distributed this way, never had a single problem with claiming them.
  12. And why do people these days so entitled to have everything? I do believe that Heirloom packs have mainly commemorative value and were aimed at very small group rather then everybody. As long as this a one-in-10-years thing I'm fine with it.
  13. Yes, exactly. Just as Gucci or Prada purse is no better then any well made purse. Price tag is the limiting factor. That's the very definition of luxury.
  14. That's the point - it never meant to be fairly priced - it's collector's item, luxury. You're either dedicated enough to buy it or not - nobody forces you. Is this ok? No, I don't think it is. Those skins are beautiful and I wish they would be more accessible for all but it's what makes them even more special.
  15. Quite the contrary. Luxury goods are defined by their limited accessibility. Rolex is no better then any other well-made watch, yet it's price is disproportionately higher, thus you don't buy a Rolex unless you're a passionate that save for one over time or suited well enough to afford it. This is another thing that people don't get. To quote, it "celebrates 10 years of Tenno valor". Not your 10 years in game. It can be compared to collectible coins made to commemorate a specific occasion.
