We want to give you extra Halloween Lucky Packs!

So here is how we will accomplish that feat. From 12:01am Friday 10/27 through Maintenance time Tuesday 10pm 11/1 any RO account that purchases 10 Halloween Spooky Packs will get 1 free! Every RO account may qualify twice, and combinations of Crates or Packs count towards that 10 total. All free Packs will be granted through the Code the Redeemer after maintenance.

Sorry Boxter given packs don't count.

Thank you for your support this month, we know it has been a little rough with the IDC move and RWC and waiting for the updates. We wish you a safe and fun Halloween weekend.

How about a "Cheaper to Upgrade Event" instead of extra Lucky Boxes? D:<

This would have been nice to know earlier... :/
But it's a nice offer ^^

Btw, any way that you could post a more accurate patch notes?
There are some things (like accurate changes to Eden Merrit Badger) that aren't stated in the actual Patch Notes.
(Don't get me wrong, I very appreciate it that Inu posted the most important informations, but I would like to have a few on the rest of the notes, too ^^)

Cool event overall, I always like free stuff! Not sure if I can swing this one, but this and the recent WPE/groove pack one are both cool.

It would be nice to do this at the start of the box event if you do it again though. Or maybe do a retroactive bonus of one box and then make the 2nd box available only from the point the event is announced.

I'm guessing yes, but that's a good question, does that count as buying 5 or only 4?

Of course it is planned like this. When sales is decreasing after the hype dwindles down, gotta push it back up again with something. A bit of a push for you to click Buy 3000 WPE :(

Seriously... nobody knows about marketing here?

Yeah... and I'll probably spend another $100 on RO this month.. =\ Spent $50 already. :( And VIP just ran out. I can wait on that at least. Hopefully they'll do another VIP package special. I loved the 4 months.

Heim,

I appreciate the business & marketing strategy of these bonus incentives, but I don't think the "Attention iRO-Mart shoppers: blue light special on aisle 6!" is best way to go about it. Have you considered offering the 'bonus incentive' from the outset of the box event? You might increase the overall volume of boxes/crates sold!

Speaking for myself, this current promotion strategy is going to make me 'wait for the impending incentive' rather than buying boxes/crates outright and getting burned on the next events. "Fool me once....etc."

Yea, this really would have been so wonderful to know before now. seeing how as some spend what they can as soon as they are out, and wont be able to qualify to get extra free ones cause they cant drop more on them T.T

you don't trade the spooky packs in. You trade the stuff that comes out of the box in to get new boxes ^^

Just wondering, how many people have actually gotten something good out of these things?

Altogether I must have opened over 50 boxes (including the boxter redemptions), 95% of them were nothing but party buffs and M.Amp boxes. The other 5% were scorpios and slot ads.

Every time there's a lucky box event I shoot for prize medals, and I usually get at least one set, none this time. Freaking sad.
I think we should just lose the party buff scrolls altogether. For good. As in never see them again. Posted Image
