Hello everyone,
How are you all? I hope everyone is fine and doing great in their life.
The Winter Festival is already here, and today we are going to talk about the Winterfest gift boxes that are available in Splinterlands. You still have the remaining month of December to buy these gift boxes. In this blog, I am going to discuss whether it is profitable to buy these gift boxes or whether you should stay away from them.
In the screenshot below, you can see the 5 Winterfest gift boxes that are available for purchase. The first one is the Basic Gift Box, which costs $5. After that, the prices increase, and the most expensive gift box is priced at $100. So if you are planning to buy any of these gift boxes, this blog is for you, as I am going to explain whether buying them actually makes sense.
To understand the value, let us first look at the Starter Pack pricing. A Starter Pack costs $1 per pack. Now, when you buy the Basic Winterfest Gift Box for $5, you receive 4 Starter Packs from Conclave Arcana along with 10,000 glint. In my opinion, the value of this box is already justified because of the glint itself, making it a decent deal.
Now let us look at the Standard Conclave Arcana Pack, which costs $4 per pack. If you decide to buy the Generous Winterfest Gift Box for $25, you receive 4 Standard packs along with 50,000 glint. Considering the pack value and the amount of glint provided, this offer looks quite attractive for the price.
In addition to this, the Generous Gift Box also includes a free exclusive skin. Not only that, but it also guarantees future skins, with a total of 5 skins that are yet to be revealed. If you are someone who likes owning exclusive items that are not tradable but still unique and visually appealing, then these gift boxes might be worth considering.
Now let us talk about what glints are actually used for. Glint is a non transferable in game currency in Splinterlands. Players can earn glint by participating in Modern or Wild ranked battles, or by burning soul bound reward cards. These are currently the main ways to earn glint in the game.
The amount of glint you earn depends on multiple factors, such as league, rating, and battle performance. I will leave a link to a detailed blog where you can read more about how glint rewards are calculated during battles.
Glint can be used in several useful ways. One of the main uses is drawing cards. You can draw Common, Rare, Epic, or Legendary cards using glint. A Common card draw costs 300 glint, while a Legendary card draw costs 70,000 glint. This means that if you collect 70,000 glint, you can get a guaranteed Legendary card.
Glint can also be used to purchase chests. There are Minor Chests, Major Chests, and Ultimate Chests. A Minor Chest costs 500 glint, while an Ultimate Chest costs 10,000 glint. From time to time, Splinterlands also adds new items that can be purchased using glint.
Even though glint is non tradable and non transferable, it is still a very valuable in game currency due to the number of options it provides to players.
Also I am sharing my battle history from terracore base. We used 8 attacks which did not made us happy this time as you can see in the screenshot below. It was poorly executed but at the end of the day I just have to collect the attacks again and be back soon.
