Poll about new Darkness and Wild bundles

I voted: "The bundles were of no interest to me", but I feel this option can have multiple motivations behind it and the correct option was missing form the poll.

That said I do find the bundles very attractive and the darkness had my interest. So why not buy darkness?

1: I am not a fan of the pets, I keep forgetting to call them out and I find adding stuff the character far more interesting. Biggest fan of new spell effects and such. I made an old post about character identity (kind of like dance, but cooler), that would probably rile up quite some purchases.

2: The dark foot print are almost not visible, so are the dark green ones and especially on the scion and in lesser form also: the witch and ranger, since they leave such a small footprint. So I feel both the pet and foot effects are two items I am not interested in. The other bundle is not up to my taste at all.

3: Reluctant with weapon effects, I bought quite a few of these and several double, due to dual wield. I am now restraining myself from buying these as I feel I have to buy 2 sort of (sees he bought the daily deal today ;) ).

Some small stuff, which add up to making me picky on where to spend points (some tech issues with effects):

Perhaps eventually the right bundle comes by for me to buy. Maybe it would be great if you could shuffle some items/ in and out of a bundle (drop down menu style as how you at some sites can buy a pc). For customers in general very large bundles with a lot of goods tend to do well beside the current themed bundles.

I also feel prices are still a bit too high (5 euros for 1 effect, 20 for a fancy one), where in most games that would do for a complete outfit. I guess that makes me far more picky on what to get and slower on spending my points. This is a plus for the bundles since you get more for value, but than ofc. those items need to be right for me still.

Lastly I feel somethings got outdated with the game changes, where some helmet effects don;t clip well with great new helmet art, which makes choosing an effect even harder. There are still weapon effects, that don't display well:

- They are too dark and especially get lost visually in certain zones.
(they don;t have to be as shiny as the latest batch, but some especially combined with certain weapons don't look too well and could use an update)

- The double bladed axe and other weapons such as bows have issues, with the effect spline. Which makes them not look too good.
(The double spline (needed for the axes, to put effect on both edges i.e.) is also lacking and I think Russel was hoping for that to be added 6 months ago.)

- The arcane weapon effect sometimes only displays the runes and no blue glow at all. On some items this gives a cool new effect, while on others it looks quite bad. Must be the one effect that gives the most random outcome on how it will actually look.

I hope all the bits and pieces of my feedback are useful and helps you guys out.

I don't get it.

"I did not know about the bundles, 252, 13.96%"

How? They are still running??? LOL

For me it was the lack of interest in the goods. The antlers were something I kind of wanted, but not so much so to buy a bundle full of stuff I didn't want.

Aside from my Regal supporter items, the only stuff I've bought have been the mummy summons, metal Mohawk, the zombie hand pet, and cat pet.

The pets were bought outside of sales, the other two were spontaneous sale buys. I had looked at the cat since it was first released and almost bought it a few times but didn't I then bought the zombie hand and soon regretted it simply because it was impulse and the novelty wore off quickly.

At the moment I have pretty much everything I could want. The two other things I would consider getting on sale are the summon statue, and spider spark... but that's pretty much the extent of my interest at this point.

I'd be more inclined to buy in the future if they come out with customizations for spectres, armours, etc.

I'd be especially interested if they could have a matching effects for the supporter packs, I love the regal weapon effect but I hope there are items which will go with it.

Protip: Make some fucking microtransactions for the popular skills in the game. That is all.

I don't like the pets. I doubt Ill buy any pack that includes one.

Most of the skill changes don't appeal to me. I love to play Summoner, I find the new skins to be boring. I'd like a much more evil look to the minions. We are necromancers after all..

As for the helms, its the same issue. I want to look evil as hell. The skull hood, expensive, but its getting closer to what I'd like.

The wep glows are pretty cool. Main reason I have not bought more is I find them expensive.

I would pay more money though if you came out with a truly evil looking bundle.

Get a Deicide album and listen to it as you come up with a few new things. I'm out here slaughtering shit, I want to look the part.

could i create a "i don't buy cosmetic microtransactions" ?

I feel it's loads more important to release new micro content rather then come up with new micro bundle deals.

At least bi-weekly, something new in the store. That's your money maker GGG, and that's where people go to customize their abilities and gear. Why is it not updated more frequently right now?

Not enough manpower, I suppose...

I would love to see more micro transactions coming with the small patches, there are still a lot of skills and items for it!

Hi Chris,

This is an obvious pro-tip that you already know for anything you really want to sell: add stash tabs to the bundle. I personally would be very, very unlikely to ever buy any cosmetic item. I'm even hard to sell for tabs. But, give me a good deal on stash tabs and a special promotion like this and I'll jump right in. That would be the only way to get me to purchase something like this. Either this or add an option to add the stash tab bundle to any cosmetic effect over $x for half price or something.

I'm not sure how prices are, but say a pack of six tabs is $15 and the special item you want to sell is $15, put the bundle up for $20-25 and I'd jump right in. I'm a sucker.

Also, I know this doesn't really fit PoE's style but I'd like 'cuter' things. I don't want an Ebony Scorption. I don't want a Green Basilisk. I don't want Emerald Rain of Arrows and I especially don't want Demon Hand Cleave. I do, however, want Flying Broom Spectral Throw, some sort of spooky aura around my head, and I especially want a cute Black Cat with some sort of cosmetic effect that it performs every now and then.

PS: Can you put the premium stash tab bundle on sale tomorrow? I promise I'll buy it.

PSS: I voted I never buy microtransactions, which has been true for 6 years up until your stupidly awesome team got me to buy stash tabs. It was a toss up between that and they didn't interest me.
