Kill Switch update: The issue affecting Baermar Uraz's Ugly Sweater has been fixed and the cosmetic has been reenabled in all queues with this update.

Amount of games to grind just for this skin

If you ignore paying 20 bucks for this skin and want to grind for it when it becomes available with shards, then it is gonna take you a very long time

Say your player level is at 89 with only 35 shards, and you grind to 100, you earn about 46,200 xp which took you something about 90 rounds which in total for earning shards is around 3,300

Now your back to devotion 1 and want to grind all the way up to level 49, the amount of do you earn is about 298,890 xp which per game is about possibly 600 games or less which you earn about 21,415

About 24,715 shards you've earn and it's still not enough, to earn the last remaining shards you earned about 147,000 xp which per game is about 290 games or more just to earn the last remaining shards with just enough to get the skin for, which how long did it took in total?

Combine every xp and divide that by a course of just 500 that'll be about 984 matches in full total

Almost a full 1000 games that you have to grind just for one legendary set that looks like it can be a very rare with no unique mori what so ever

Idk why they thought it was fine for them to increase a legendary set which the only unique thing about it is you changed snug into a poodle

    • consider that many online games do not offer this possibility. It's very normal for Devs to AT LEAST ask you to play a lot to unlock a skin. (my opinion)

    Don't forget that it's a SET. None of those "incredibly valuable" pieces can be used outside of this skin.

    Why not sell different dogs at the price of another weapon? Why have them attached to a skin?

    I think it is fine. I dont think you should see the Shard-prices as a way to grind for certain things. I would rather considering Cosmetics for Shards as things which you can buy if you accumulate a lot of them, but it was never the goal that you grind for Skins. You are meant to pay for them, since they are income for BHVR. And if you can wait, you can also get them without paying money.

    But you are not meant to look at a skin, see that it costs that amount of Shards and calculate how much you have to play/grind to get it.

    The fact that is is a Legendary Viseral, despite not being a different character or having a new mori, make it even worse.

    This is an ultra rare at best.

    It's good for older players who have those sorts of shards built up. But yeah, newer players will be waiting awhile unless they pay. I'm glad the shards option is there at least
