That’s a weird post.

I like your statistical math, but I don’t know, if the offers are worth it now or not.

These are the most confusing Black Friday offers to date.

Depends on your needs.

Even if you need everything

$100 is the most time saved but the least efficient.

The value changes by a HUGE amount depending on how patient you are and how high level.

$20 is a very good offer for emblems

$5 is … weak, but still saves time and food for 4* / 5* hero leveling

I just bought the trainers and the emblems. Already nearly 80 bucks. Farmables, a few summons, a blade and a tome for 100 bucks…

No, thx.

In my opinion no.

  1. The cheapest deal is in the price of VIP pass. But VIP gives you 900 gems, 30 emblems and 90 loot tickets. It is much more than in this deal (I don’t thikk trainers are worth so much)

  2. The price of second deal is approximately the price of 4 VIPs. This would give you 3600 gems, 120 emblems and 360 loot tickets. In deal you get less gems (2400), less emblems (100) but also raid flasks, gloves and compass. I have plenty of compasses gloves and raid flasks from titans, wars and chests.

  3. The most expensive offer is basically at the price of 20 VIPs. With 20 VIPs you get 18000 gems 600 emblems and 1800 loot tickets. In this offer you get basically 13050 gems (counting EHT = 300gems, chalenge coin = 30 gems) and some other stuff that (in most part) can be produced or farmed. Tome of tactics reset symbol and Damascus blade is not worth this price IMO.

Is buying one of the emblems deal better than the two Atlantis deal? They about the same in price for me maybe £3 difference.
Gems more important for me than the Atlantis coins as just want a Wilbur any 5* is a bonus probably answered my own question as still can farm S2 hard

I agree.

But.

Traditional offers are about saving time. Anything in then can be acquired by patience.

Since players will value time differently, I tried to show the time involved.

These Black Friday sales are more in line with the shop than 2018, 2017 sales.

All the above are very poor for gems.

Needs an update with new Atlantis last 24 hour deal, but see this post for gems.
