Staggering. I mean, people are allowed to do whatever they want with their money. That said, considering WG can assign whichever value it wants into it's paid digital content I just can't understand as well how much value someone would get out of some of these bundles. What's more is that popularity of such bundles may be encouraging even more of these practicees, though that's a story for a different time. 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

421 [CRF] sonoasailor Members 953 posts 8,927 battles Report post #12 Posted January 29 (edited) Is Wujing the new Makarov? People want to know! Edit: What I am saying here is that it seems that the Wujing is popping out of the crates as many time as the Makarov did in the earlier event....I know it's the Alsace clone, and I kind of like that ship anyway. The Makarov is the Nurnberg, and the Nurnberg is one of my favorite glass cannons in the game, tho I prefer the earlier hulls with more torpedoes.

13 _CrocJaw ∞ Members 19 posts 10,339 battles Report post #13 Posted January 29 Got my first Journey to the West container by checking in every day. Opened my container and received 250 Doubloons. Nice haul for just showing up and playing a few games. Went to the Armory to check prices and discovered they are 1250 Doubloons a piece. Thanks for the warning on what you might get for your 1250. You talked me out of a bad deal and I appreciate that. Thank you. Truthfulness should be encouraged and I applaud you. 1 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

421 [CRF] sonoasailor Members 953 posts 8,927 battles Report post #16 Posted January 29 Against my better judgement, I went and bought the 6 crate pack od the Journey crates in the Armory.. They dropped 20 Lunar Warrior camos, 1250 doubloons, 8 days premium time and the Bajie, the Wujing AND the Sanzang. Probably have used up all my allotment for the year of good RNG....now how the hell does one play a CV... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The in game free containers are just regular containers...the purchasable ones are premium containers & have an equal 1250 doubloon drop rate for the 1250 doubloons purchase price.

Wukong is essentially a Charles Martel but with deepwater torps, torp reload booster (instead of MBRB), spotter plane (instead of fighter), and Def. AA (instead of the choice to run hydro) and no speed boost. Both Bajie & Wukong released last year. These new Pan Asian premiums Sanzang & Wujing, from what I can tell, are a copy/paste Saipan & Alsace. It would have been really neat if they gave Sanzang & Wujing some Pan Asian flavor, like aerial deepwater torps on Sanzang with high flood chance but the inability to hit destroyers, or Wujing with some tweaks to make it different from Alsace. Something. That being said, if you really love your Alsace & want a premium version of it, Wujing might be right up your alley. Protip: Sanzang benefits from having either Da Rong or Quan Rong as a commander, they have improved Survivability Expert & Demo Expert, the fire chance on those HE bombs get to 72% with Demo Expert & flags. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
