Actually, the minis do have a use: split them into four stacks, abdbthrow the four stacks into the mystic forge. You'll get other random minis, that you can sell on the tp
Awesome video brother! Super 5head move from you to use the beta for such interesting tests^^ Great to see you posting again, welcome back! :) Hope you are doing great and have a nice one!
this amount of karma is not coming from the jade bot. The "best" way is with idle farming in LW S4 bc you can buy something called 'karmic retribution' that gives you karma per kill. Then u go to known farm spots and just wait for mobs to respawn.
Interesting research, thank you! To clarify: Did you get 57mil karma BACK after opening? (through karma elixirs) And if so, is the average gold profit calculated without taking this karma return into account? Edit: after rewatching a couple times you answer this in the video. It's 4am here, soz
So these boxes were not that bad back in the day because the Karma you got from them scaled with karma boosters. I would sometimes get more karma out than I put in while using all the karma boosters I could get my hands on combined with my account bonuses from achievements.
Raid+Strikes Bosses, Karmic Retribution for LSW4 maps gives karma per kill, Karma Jade Bot Upgrade, and farming Wintersday, you‘ll have more Karma that you‘ll ever need
@@ginster458 great thank you. I knew most farming methods and I commented in hope of learning something I didn't. Jade bot upgrades is a really good thing I've neglected. Cheerio
Given the amount of people that are most certainly in the exact same situation as you with a ton of karma, I think there's no way Anet would put another gold-generating karma sink into the game I think, because of how much gold it would instantly introduce. You're probably fine to just spend it on orrian boxes.
I forgot about those lol..... nearly a stack of the mini which i remember being the only reason to open for a chance at it. Lots of shards is nice for people who make and sell legendary weapons but yea not overly worth it.
I played the game a ton so that is definitely a big factor but Raids, Fractals, WvW, Icebrood Strike Missions, Wintersday events, LWS dailies and Tequalt are all great ways to make karma. Hope that helps :)
The results are very bad imo, you could buy medium gloves with that karma and disolve them in mystic forge, salvage them for leathers and sell leather, you would get thousands of gold for that amount of karma spent. I've done my own research on about million karma spent that way, and i get 100 gold back for 1 mill karma selling leather, so 43 mill karma would give you around 4.100 to 4.500 gold depending on the current TP price.
@@tadelloso That's great news! I currently have three Lege weapons, and 5 armor pieces, and haven't found a use for my Karma. I'm still looking to finish the Binding of Ipos and a few more armor pieces. How can I use the Karma?
So from your RNG it's one gold for 70192.4615159 karma. Oh also obsidian but can you turn obsidian into gold? I have too much obsidian and it's useless to me at the moment.
but when do you even need karma? i have tons of karma useless just buying pact supply daily,, still have a lot of obsidian shards so basically only need to turn karma into gold which means buy these boxes or what? do people wait for wintersday or smth
What you didn't track is whether the first half you opened was worth more than the second half, and that sort of thing. I'm almost certain that the rewards diminish the more boxes you open. When I first started buying these they were very profitable, but it has long since been a net loss to buy them, on a consistent basis. I think they track how many you've opened and give you an increased percentage to find valuable items until you hit a certain number opened.
TLDR: don't do it it's bad, it's been bad since gw2 came out and it'll continue to be bad, it used to be better however since back in the day all the karma boosters actually worked on potions
Let me guess: You are afk farming? Both your videos for volatile magic and this one look like it :) No offense, I do it too. Hands down best income for karma and vm!
If you want to waste your karma gambling go and buy some amulets and salvage them. I get that it s for video but if anyone gets antything from it, it s that you used one of the worst method of gambling present in gw2.
