In the last 3 weeks I've bought three 300 mana gem packs and one 600 pack set and only pulled the guaranteed rare cards from each, all rare cards that I already owned. I don't have that large of a collection, so pulling the rare that I already have, and only one rare at a time, is really disheartening. Random RNG is random. Some people getting ridiculous runs of things is actually part of random, noone would organised that.You can't "adjust" RNGs and keep them random, so you need a different system in place over the top to deal with duplicates. That is planned and noone has backtracked from that.

I'm sorry if it seemed like I didn't comprehend how they (RNGs) worked.I still would love to be able to use the purple crystals for something different. Like being able to purchase specific cards with then instead of "blind packs."

This is my deepest wish for this game -- set people up for success so they stay engaged. In addition, I would like to see greater respect for player's time -- in other words, do away with 4 hour recharges. Asking people to spend 30-45 minutes of their day every 4 hours is making the game work -- not fun.

Any of the 3.x battles take 10-15 minutes if you go for objectives, even with the best cards. The 2.x nodes can take 5-10 minutes (2.3 sometimes longer) and 1.x nodes take about 5 minutes or more when you factor in load times. That's easily 20-30 minutes under optimal circumstances.

Mainloop25 said: But I looked at your calculations and they come out to about 20-25 minutes to clear your nodes, which is in the range of my 20-30 minutes, so I'm not sure what you're disagreeing with?What I was disagreeing with was with Ohboy's incredulity that it could take the average player can easily spend a half hour clearing nodes. I can point to my alt account that don't usually touch for PvE events because it takes me so long to clear 3.x nodes, unless I have the day to spend watching TV at the same time
