Museum supply sale

[Cryos]

I just bought the first three levels of the museum supply sale and level 4 is just... researchers. is level 4 has a lot of supplies then I might get it but for now I'm gonna wait, unless someone else knows.

Doe anyone else know what level 5 supply sale looks like?

 

[MartinK12]

What the first levels look like and what is the cost?

 

[Quali]

So the latest sale info (in USD)
Stage 1 - $3.99 for 300 supplies
Stage 2 - $6.99 for 700 supplies
Stage 3 - $8.99 for 800 supplies
Stage 4 - $9.99 for 175 researchers
Stage 5 - $39.99 for 1000 supplies and 200 benefactors

This is the total supplies cost to move an artifact from 1* to 5*

 

[Cryos]

40$ for the last one, no thanks. The first three are enough for me

Ah. That makes sense. I was wondering how the quantities were determined. Thanks!

 

[forgetthis]

I don't even bother to look at the sales any more; this one is a perfect illustration of why. $70 to move a single artifact to five-star?! Yeesh. People can buy multiple other games for that price.

Besides, I'd have to have an artifact worth upgrading to begin with, and I haven't come close to winning the Nexon lottery yet. My best artifact might be worth upgrading to level three - if supplies weren't so hard to come by.

Not that I spend money on the game but I feel like the consensus is that there's no use for stage 4 as everyone I know has a larger number of researchers and benefactors than actual supplies. I also think the sheer ratio of benefactors/researchers/supplies that can be gotten is so off balance considering most people will not craft an item they want to get to level 4-5 nor will that they have enough supplies to get to that point. This is assuming of course people don't want to drop money.

they should improve artifacts quality from crafting if they want players to buy these sales, if I don't get any decent artifacts why would i bother buying material to upgrade them lol
all my artifacts are good for one bonus only at the first star but not worth upgrading even to 3 stars at all

Thanks for the heads up Quali.

So if you're one of the lucky 1-in-8,000, ie. you've managed to craft three 11%s on the same artefact, but you can't wait to earn Museum supplies the slow way...

Stage 1 - $3.99 for 300 supplies = 1.3 cents per supply item
Stage 2 - $6.99 for 700 supplies = 1 cent per supply
Stage 3 - $8.99 for 800 supplies = 1.1 cents per supply
Stage 4 - $9.99 for 175 researchers = 5.7 cents per researcher
Stage 5 - $39.99 for 1,000 supplies = 4 cents per supply (but you do get 200 benefactors also)

I'm assuming most folks have lots of researchers and benefactors available, because they don't have many (any?) artefacts that have been worth upgrading to level 4 or 5 yet...

 

[Ulysses]

Yeah, we hear you Motaz! At least TinSoldier has asked his dev team to explore 're-roll'/'re-shuffle' to improve artefacts. Link here → https://forum.nexonm.com/forum/nexo...s-feature-requests/630204-improving-artifacts

That might make it worth upgrading one or two artefacts to five star... Let's see what happens...

 

[Bootney Lee Fonsworth]

This seems like another in a long list of issues that could be pointed out by having people in-house actually playing the game, at its highest levels, without a dev build or unlimited crowns. Don't get me wrong, there have been more customer-friendly strides made as of late but it seems they have to be balanced by a mandatory number of facepalm moments.

For me at least, the museum has just become something to whittle away a few minutes making and trashing artifacts between troop builds. I have tens of thousands of fragments, and haven't actively pursued upgrades in awhile. They just happen when they happen. But while we're on the subject a less cumbersome interface would be cool too. Like having the option to mark them for sale as they pop up, then hitting one button to confirm after all five are revealed. None of this switching between multiple screens stuff.

 

[Motaz Tarek]

Ulysses yep saw that, hope this gets implemented in future updates (in the right way) as reshuffeling all stats seems unreasonable with the current rates cuz it will be as bad as crafting a new one
locking some stats that u would like to keep while reshuffeling other stats that u don't like is the key feature we need to get and they have to understand that cuz that's the point of reshuffeling feature to increase the % of ur satisfaction with artifacts
let's see what they bring in the future...

This. This would be good.
