Hextech Crafting

HowlingGiraffe··2 votes·363 views

I feel like riot should add a feature to crafting so that you can re-roll a champ you already have and a skin or two for them to have at least a better chance, if not a guarantee, to get a skin shard or permanent that belongs to that champ. That might remove the gamble of it but it would be nice to re-roll skins and champs together but i really just wanted to know what everyone else thought about this idea.

Hextech Crafting needs reworked in my opinion:

  • The odds for getting a single skin are not 1/692 like they should be. The droprates for legacy and ultimate skins are much lower. A youtuber opened 10,000 chests(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=an-OQa1ddrU) and still didn't even get all of the skins. This is an issue but the bigger issue is that Riot says the drop rates are "random" which is a clear lie.

  • The amount of duplicates is significantly higher.

  • Gemstones have something like a 368/10,000 droprate. I've watched youtubers spend $300 just to get 10 of them.

  • Everything cost too much Orange Essence. For skins I want, I'd have to sell 5-6 skin shards. For something like DJ Sona, I'd need to sell 10.

  • The Hextech punishment system is frustrating and doesn't encourage better behavior. It took me 70+ games to get through a restriction, and then I took another soon after. I don't know when or if the punishment will end and there's no reason to even bother trying to be nicer due to it.

  • People who have every champion should not receive champion shards and no one should receive shards for skins/champs they have.

The every single thing I would complain about.
