214 Mister_Rawr Members 806 posts 5,710 battles Report post #11 Posted November 7, 2016 I'm going to go out on a limb here and bet it'll be significantly more than 200k FXP. As a "premium(?)" she's likely to be the fully kitted version, and as such I'm guessing the number is going to end up pretty close to 325,000. Just my thoughts... -R Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have very, very little sympathy for Players that skipped entire lines. The camo... is what it is... I have it on Hatsu simply because I like it. Its an aesthetic with some bonuses... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
729 X15 Alpha Tester 2,162 posts 6,844 battles Report post #13 Posted November 7, 2016 With the free XP I'm just glad they warned us now. On the other hand my worry is that you can effectively buy it with converted XP. I, for example, have just under 2 million of it laying around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
589 [NAVAL] jmanII Banned 1,416 posts Report post #14 Posted November 7, 2016 (edited) Considering how much a Tier 8 costs in store, I am guessing closer to 500,000 FXP. Lets see, that is somewhere between $60 and $80 USD for converting (25 or 35 to 1). Sounds about right. Goodbye Iowa, hello Mighty Mo!

On the other hand my worry is that you can effectively buy it with converted XP. I, for example, have just under 2 million of it laying around. Thats not a worry, thats the point. Theres no way to rack up large quantities of it in short times. You either have the unspecified amount already, are damn close to it, or you buy it.

I think it will be a very significant amount. Wouldn't shock me to see it upwards of 500k, just to try and moderate the pay to win mantra. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn't shock me to see it upwards of 500k, just to try and moderate the pay to win mantra. WG looks like they are trying to limit access to her and at T9 thats a good thing.... right? I find little difference in buying doubs to convert exp i have earned to buy her as opposed to dropping down Cash for whatever she would be in the shop. Its a smart way to limit access and I would bet we will see more of this in the future. They should have done this with the Saipan imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
