I'm a very light gold player but have been tempted by the new LEs this time so will have to buy my first ever vault of gold to get'em. I have 4 days to do it and if a gold sale starts 5 mins after I buy my vault it will make me cry.

Some of you guys that play CC sometimes know when one is coming our way, any news?

PS just changed my in game name to Hivesy so that might help with all those request lists I must be on :)

Hivesy -- don't do it. Not until they get some of these issues fixed. And LEs don't provide the best value for your gold. I've done some analysis of crates vs LEs vs Boss events. The best use in this order are Boss Events, 3 packs of crates, and then LE sets. I can show you the math if you would like.

The math for YOUR character, not other peoples.

Im wanting a sale too.gotta be soon. Think miners right though. Your best of using your gold on bosses. For half the gold you could end up with 3 or 4 rares.

You know what's going to start happening, they are going to raise the price of gold 20% during events...

They usually start the Gold sale on the 3rd Thursday of each month. So if that's the case - you got 7 more days.

Oh damn, the gold sales really follow a trend like that? I honestly never paid attention to it ... it seems like every 3 events one will pop up ... which does average out to about once a month though.

The units can be purchased at a later time by viewing a friend or foes inventory, no need to rush. Plus, you'll still get the bonus unit.

Wait ... if you purchase an LE set by carefully choosing the right units from a friends inventory, you still get the bonus item?

Chances of remember what 4 units went with eachother to get the bonus is unlikely though.

Plus, not LE's (most of them) aren't available for purchase after they expire. Don't know if they changed that.

Miner's LE unit thread for the win...

Plus, we have you and Miner to thank for the LE threads that show all the units. :)

If your gonna start buying vaults of gold, you might as well splurge and buy 5-10vaults for the bonus gold. Don't forget to send a ticket requesting the bonus tho, or you won't recieve it. But if you can only afford 1 vault, don't waste it on LE's, as it will deplete your entire vault almost. Save for boss events IMO.

Ahh thanks... only problem is for me is that the screen keeps on GREEEEEZING! I meant freezing.

Edit: wow Gree really stands for a lot of things Gree(d); Gree(ze)

Also if you are interested in buying 5 vaults of gold, or more, in one month to get the bonus gold. The vaults have to be purchased at full price not when on sale or u don't qualify for te bonus gold

Lame ... so you'd have to buy 7 vaults while they were on sale to even qualify. Or 6 vaults and a bank truck, or 6 vaults, a stockpile, and a stash etc. Lol

Is this correct? So even if gold were on sale for 20-40%, you'd still have to spend $500-$1000+ to recieve the bonus? Not just buy 5-10 vaults. I could have swore i bought 3 on sale and 2 at full price and they still credited me 2500 gold bonus.

Last month I bought sone at reg and some on sale and they all counted the same.

Wen you say bonus do you mean the extra % it says it adds on.

No, I mean the bonus you have to send a ticket for.

Totally not true. If you buy vaults even in a sale period the number of vaults is the same for qualifying for bonus brackets. I always buy my vaults in a sale period.

Wat is this bonus. Is it just for vaults.
