Axwack Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 How often does the discount for platinum show up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)supernova_girlie Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I hope I don't get in trouble for saying this, but it's been rumored that if you don't play for 30 days or more, there's a 50% chance you will get a 75% off coupon the next time you log-on. I cannot confirm this, because I'm addicted. I've only gotten two of these in almost three years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)robotwars7 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 once in a blue moon. though there's a theory that if you don't log in for a few days, you'll usually get one when you do log in. I'm on console, so we only get market coupons, but the theory apparently works on console as well. there's no solid evidence for this though, just going off what others have said in the past.

o0Despair0o Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 (edited) Not often enough. If I had a 75% discout for every 10 20% discounts I had so far I would have a metric butt-ton of 75% discounts.

-Gundam- Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I'd back the theory that the RNG for Discount Coupons is tied to not logging in. If I go a few days without logging in, I'm almost always guaranteed a 20% discount. If it gets up to a week, then 50% discounts are more frequent (though I'm rarely off that long). My son plays rarely, and sees more 75% off coupons than me, though still not very many. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervara Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I have no data to back this up but I believe higher % discounts [50-75% off] pop up when you are low on platinum. I only buy plat when I get very low and a 75% off discount is active. I've had quite a few, maybe 5-6. All of which we awarded via daily reward when I had 400 or less platinum.

I think you're on to something here! I notice that when I have less than 30p I get coupons like crazy and I end having to scramble over to trade chat.

Christopaz Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Being in a third world country helps with the chances too (this is just a conspiracy theory). Ever since I started playing again, I get at least one -50% or -75% discount every week, and I play every day. Only used one of it though, kinda short on bucks right now.

Mover-NeRo Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I get one about once per month. Sadly i am not using them since i have enough plat. Tennogen discount would be nice :X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wargthewarg Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 It's a reward to those of us too lazy to be at 900+ login-day rewards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilServant Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 In 4 years I got it once when I was in Holliday lol. Newer seen it again :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlusteredFerret Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 (edited) I seem to get 50% discounts pretty frequently, like at least once a month. Use it to buy 370 platinum and keep my balance topped up (spending quite a bit on decorating my Landing Craft lately). Occasionally I'll splurge and buy the next bundle up - can't remember how much that is. Haven't seen a 75% discount yet in the 9 months or so I've been playing.

I log in daily and I get them pretty often. This month I got a 75% one and 5 days later the 50% one. It's just a matter of RNG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
---Merchant--- Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I get one every month,if it was 75% discount on prime pack or something,sure why not. But plat itself is easy to get for me,so I ll never have reason to use such coupon,even if it was 99.99% discount and I had to pay 1 cent for million platinum. Market discount or prime cosmetic pack discount,that'd work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)de_sch0sch Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Seldom, got only one in 10 months or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)RhinoCharging00 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 (edited) Since I re-engaged with Warframe most recently I've logged in 114 days consecutively, and I think I've had 2, possibly 3, of the 75% discounts, and 2 or 3 of the 50% discounts. Which is not great, but I guess it can't be too frequent or there'd be no consistency in the market as prices would be fluctuating so wildly.

Orgoon Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I frequently get 50% discounts whenever I'm really low on plat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dEjAvU5566 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 When you don't think about, it shows up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)de_sch0sch Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 On a side note: I'd love to be able to save them up until I acctualy have some plats to spend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Cynicaid Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I get them almost every time I log on with the desire to not deal with people. Meaning I have no plat and would sooner log off than look at the trade channel. A 50% discount pops out and I just go "It is just one of those days."

Salenstormwing Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Not often enough. I got a 40% recently though. And a 50% a month or so ago. But yeah, it's not often. It's RNG. Pray for RNGesus to bless you with a 75% off coupon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually see them once or twice a month. 50% discounts are relatively rare. Usually see them about once every three or four months--though I've had 3 in the last two months, but I also had a month off I hadn't planned on, which might have skewed things a bit. 75% discounts are exceedingly rare. I've had...three, I think...in 6 years. Rare enough I can't really remember how many and when. I almost never buy platinum at 20% off. I sometimes buy platinum (about one third to one half the time) at 50% off. I always buy platinum at 75% off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
