    The %ages had to be added because of LAWS in some countries.

    And they told us that the chance of every masterpiece was the same, because otherwise they had to EXPLICITLY state that to not break the law.

    So, yes, this is not just a break in trust, it was illegal.
    The loot box scandal or news. Not announcing %s is , I believe, classified as gambling. It's not to say that there are % within the %s. With the bugs in this game I'll assume there are bugs with the monetary purchases as well , but we just don't notice them. I've never been on the average or high end of mythic gains from packs with each set. You hear that people get 1-3 mythics in 20 packs but you'll never hear someone get 7-10 mythics from 20 packs. I blame myself for spending money on this game as it was my choice in hoping there were 2 sides of the coin.

    Actually you do hear people getting 7-10 mythics from 10 packs.

    Yep, you do hear it every now and then. I have actually gotten 3 mythics in a single EMN pack before.it happens, I think people are just quicker to post negative opens than positive ones (or we feel we deserve the good breaks, and don’t deserve the bad ones, so the bad ones are news).

    Another lie put out by D3 is the fact that masterpieces will be available in the RIX packs with the update. They are not. So much for transparency.

    @Brigby, any word on the grapevine about this issue?

    I'm bumping this because we still haven't gotten an answer.

    @Brigby @LakeStone @Oktagon_Daiane do you guys have a response?

    Yup, now that GenCon is over, first core event is done, and first patch is out, this needs to be a priority.

    perhaps they were given the same exclusive priority as the old legacy masterpieces (good luck ever acquiring those).

    News for me, never happen to me yet. I only miss 8 M19 myth (rest I have), and I am out to hint down MP now. But if I already have the specific MP? Wait for another pack-rotation?
    Why are MP not craftable? I don't buy any booster if my chances are between 0-2% to get a new card. Until now EP are the only way and that way should be clear to go, or I will not pay anymore real money.

    Looks like Brigby has responded in an independent admin post.

    haha I'd hope not, you're getting a full refund and you get to keep the pack you purchased ;)

    So he is confirming that this was not an issue for any other packs, correct?
