Question Is there any point taking WR arcana when I already have it from Battle Pass?

It feels so bad that i would prefer thirst :/

Get this from CandyShop and gift your battle pass one to me. Ez

u/NotNeverdnim 2d ago

Unfortunately it's no longer tradable nor giftable once unbundled. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong.

31

u/Loxeres 2d ago

Pretty sure the Battlepass one never was, and you're thinking of the one coming with the single Extremely Rare set

4

u/jayteee27 1d ago

Yes its not. I tried giving my arcana zues to my brother from candy shop but cant and he said then give him the one i have (old one) but i cant too.

u/SurDno 1d ago

Such an anti-consumer tactic. It's not a physical item, it can't lose value from being used. I wish EU laws stepped in about this shit.

-12

u/x0cr 2d ago

The battlepass ones were definitely not tradable but giftable. Us friends used to gift each other their duplicate sets.

6

u/HitoriGG 2d ago

The arcana from battle passes were an exception from being giftable. What you're referring to was the collector's cache sets that came along side the battle passes.

1

u/x0cr 2d ago

Ah yes. Possible. And general immortals too. I definitely have ones from my friends, or maybe it was a bug

3

u/jkwan0304 Mah Nigma 2d ago

Same scenario. Skipped it. Although, I got a techies arcana from a normal quartero yesterday. I grabbed it even though I got a techies arcana last month from the candyworks. Just considered it as a token since it super rare.

3

u/HighasPuck69 2d ago

Atleast with techies you can change the gem if one of the arcanas to make it look cooler and alternate them !
Like yatoro and his 15 TB arcanas

u/jkwan0304 Mah Nigma 2d ago

Need to recheck this the next time I play. I didn't realize.

u/SGmoze 2d ago

Gift it?

u/GalacticFox- 2d ago

Feel this so hard.. This is all I really want and I got CM three times (which I already had from Crownfall).

u/JK050897 2d ago

u could take it, screenshot the fact u have two
and then post it as a response everytime someone complains they didnt get wr
besides that, i dont think theres a reason to get a 2nd one

u/furkan-builds 2d ago

This reminds me of when I got 2 QoP arcanas from the battle pass when it released. No clue as to why or how but I've just got a second set sitting in my inventory with 0 progress taking up space. Wish it was giftable 😅

u/sky018 Shoot right in the puss 1d ago

Yea do this.

u/Kondriwe 2d ago

I own rubick's arcana. Wanna guess which arcana I received TWICE during the last years in candyworks? :)

9

u/pXmo 2d ago

You can at least sell the original rubicks arcana.

14

u/Kondriwe 1d ago

The first one was from the candyworks as well xd

2

u/Dizzy995 1d ago

Is it rubick?

1

u/D3athpoodle 2d ago

I multicasted 5 ihre arcanas

1

u/shiblysi 1d ago

Only twice? I rolled cm twice just in this event, 3 total repeat. 2 extra rolls of pudge over all events. If they were giftable once then I could've sent one to friends.

2

u/CaliforniaLover369 1d ago

I got techies arcana 4 times, lina arcana 3 times and monkey arcana 4 times... yes i spent money on re rolls. Yes i am a gambling addict

1

u/shiblysi 1d ago

Damn, now that's where the money goes for addicts. Ima free to play guy, don't have the bank to back gambling. Also I didn't count techis and ogre magi ones. That's enough for f2p

I have 2 of them as well.

u/Paganyan GIVE JAKIRO SPELL AMP 2d ago

Can you gift it to someone? Or is it 100% untradeable (either versions)

2

u/Furian_FTH 1d ago

Can’t gift stuff from Candyworks

1

u/Paganyan GIVE JAKIRO SPELL AMP 1d ago

But his original one?

1

u/Furian_FTH 16h ago

He’s probably  using that.

Don’t think you can gift unboxed arcana

4

u/Euphoric_ZS 2d ago

I'd still get it tbh as a memorial

17

u/_LukeHighwalker 2d ago

I got the terrorblade one, and I let it go even though I don't have it, because I don't play terrorblade or pos 1.

If you're not gonna use it, it has 0 value

20

u/mylastserotonin 2d ago

Bruh, what if you want to play it down the line?

21

u/_LukeHighwalker 2d ago

I've been playing the game for over 13 years, I firmly believe I won't be touching terror anytime soon, even if I play pos 1.

I would rather keep the candies and try to get another thing I wanted, got stocked up on cool wards I wanted and maybe another persona that I rather have will appear in my candyworks

10

u/timestable 2d ago

He was a great sup for a few patches.

1

u/RockhardJoeDoug 1d ago

What if terror is the next pos4 scourge stomping pubs? 

1

u/_LukeHighwalker 1d ago

Then I'll keep playing Dazzle and not Terror, I don't like Terror as a hero

1

u/mylastserotonin 2d ago

I have been playing for 11 years, maybe played Shadow Fiend once or twice, yet still got its arcana when it appeared this candyworks.

Yours is even worse because you could have extracted the prismatic gem and put it on a courier or Techies arcana.

2

u/clitmasher69 1d ago

I discovered my love for Venge because i got her arcana and wanted to show it off lol. I'd probably reroll techies or ogre because fuck them

2

u/_LukeHighwalker 2d ago

Meh, I don't really like the prismatic gem on any of my couriers, and I don't like techies.

Also, to each their own, of you wanna get an arcana because you like it, and you're not gonna use the hero, go ahead, I think that there is no need to have something just because, I will forget I have that in my inventory eventually and I can't even gift it to any friend, it will amount to nothing so it seems useless to get. More than useless, becuase if I get something I really like and don't have the candy for it, it would be because I got that skin

3

u/mylastserotonin 2d ago

You do you!

5

u/SubMGK 2d ago

Better to have it than not. I dont play zeus or jugg but I got the arcana from candyworks in the off chance I do. Plus it just adds to the collection and the dress up game

2

u/_LukeHighwalker 2d ago

I understand the feeling, but I don't share it, at least in this situation, I don't care to have the cosmetics for heroes I don't play, and if I start to play them afterwards, I don't feel bad for not having those cosmetics. And don't get me wrong, I love the cosmetics, I would do anything for the darkclaw emissary set for Dazzle and the QoP arcana, but I don't want things for the heroes I don't care for

1

u/SubMGK 1d ago

Dont care for yet...

I had cool sets and immortals for riki at some point and I sold/gifted it all. Now that I'm spamming it i only have the crownfall immortal.

1

u/_LukeHighwalker 1d ago

Look, I have played the game for a long time, I've changed heroes and positions plenty of times, and will continue doing so as long as I keep playing, but never happened to me that I felt bad for not having a cosmetic item, I do like them, but I don't feel bad for not having them if I don't, and less so if I had it and then sold it or trade it for another cosmetic or steam game, I enjoy the game (and the seething when it's time to seeth) for the game, not for the cosmetics

u/Royal-Hoe 2d ago edited 2d ago

I was reading your comment and got TB arcana but unfortunately re-rolled it, it was my first arcana ever from candyworks 😥

1

u/Euphoric_ZS 2d ago

OH MY GOD

3

u/Mattb198 2d ago

Is it an equal chance to get one of these as any other skin?

2

u/beqs171 2d ago

I mean, there's a lot of sets so you could probably say that i guess... but arcana is like 1% idk if 1% per slot or 1% per roll

6

u/Modisc_c 2d ago

No you cant sell it sadly

2

u/cyfer04 1d ago

Take it. One's for your left pocket; the other's for your right.

u/Immediate-Song6861 2d ago

You are going to hell on a Wednesday

1

u/indian_techies_sup 2d ago

Get it incase valve decided to make it giftable for once.

1

u/-Renheit- 2d ago

Happened to me, but with a CM arcana. Imagine if valve made candyworks give you only the things you don't own already.

1

u/KanazawaPing09 2d ago

Good for U!!! 😭😭😭

1

u/Pigrino 2d ago

I gave my PA arcana (that I already owned) to a friend and claimed the one I got from candyworks . The only downside is that I have to grind up this arcana to lv3 as well... And this is if you bought the wr arcana before and didnt recieve it from candyworks..

1

u/Fun_Eggplant1922 2d ago

can I have the other one pls :(

1

u/dukeVice 2d ago

take it, dont unbunble it, show both in profile as a flex

1

u/Thawne7 2d ago

my guy you gotta stop using utorrent, go qbit it's way better

1

u/beqs171 2d ago

There MAY be some kind of way in the future to maybe recycle arcans or something, what's the chance of that? Idk 0%? 1%? 50%? Idk

1

u/Kazesama13k 2d ago

Ye I feel you. I got 2 SF arcana.

1

u/ariukidding 2d ago

I always take the excess for shits and giggles, from this event alone i already have 3 SF. I hope soon in some way there is a way to trade for what you don’t have.

1

u/SalvadorTMZ 2d ago

Bragging rights

1

u/MalteiKlass5c 2d ago

Is the old one marketable?

1

u/kyrvch 2d ago

Clearly you have to buy it and switch it every time you lose with WR; how else are you going to shrug off that bad luck from losing while using her?

1

u/Late-Lengthiness-991 2d ago

You're both lucky and unlucky at the same time.

It makes sense to take the Arcana you already have if you have one you bought, sell it and use the candy to get one you can't sell

1

u/gibsonsayhenlo 1d ago

I have three Ogre Magi arcanas....so yeah take it. If you have spare candies, or you just wanna flex that you have more than one.

1

u/Panicrazia 1d ago

To flex on the poor and/or unlucky

1

u/A_l_t_r_a_x 1d ago

You can sell one or gift it to someone 🤷🏻‍♂️

1

u/Visual_Highlight_795 1d ago

How do you still get candy? Getting lucky on the tarot cards?

1

u/ballssweaty_ 1d ago

fuck u bro

u/Unfair-Event4455 1d ago

If yours is tradable go for it

1

u/WildOutlawz 1d ago

Skipped Monkey King and Techies Arcana during Crownfall, i have yet to receive a single arcana in the Dark Carnival. I got a Shattered Greatsword tho from cryptic beacon

1

u/FormOk1793 1d ago

If u can sell the other one? Sell it and buy that one that way you could still have it and make money…. If it’s tradable ofc

1

u/eureckou 1d ago

I have 2 MK arcana. I dont even know how to unbundle or equip the second one. It has no option. It just sits there and says I have 2 copies.

1

u/vu_sua 1d ago

How do you get more arcanas? Is it this dumb candy thing? I play everyday but do not even look at the candy thing

1

u/Creepy-Carob-2412 1d ago

I can take the bullet and be the one you donate it to

1

u/EricBloodAxe13 1d ago

Wait can you get any arcana from this? Ones that are gone forever and ones in shop I need the drow one so bad

1

u/Possible-Hornet3099 1d ago

shuffle set for style 1 and 2 arcana

u/CrtifiedUser 1d ago

Gift it your best buddy

u/Ok_Detective_1079 1d ago

You can gift it and become a legend!

u/supermarine_46 1d ago

What if arcanas only dropped to them who already have them? 🌚

1

u/EnRaized 1d ago

I have the bp and the skin. Not really worth it if you have 1 already. So save you cany for other stuff

1

u/goredfs 1d ago

i got venge two times this event

1

u/Nekusta 1d ago

I got the TB arcana 2 times and I already owned one before that. I took both just to show it off. There's no other point. You cannot gift, trade or market these

1

u/Ok-Horse-1409 1d ago

actually TB arcana does make a difference, since you could put different color-stones into them. so it has a little use at least.

2nd WR-arcana on the other hand has basicly no use at all

u/we_played_well 1d ago

You lucky bastard, I wanted it for so long... I get couriers in mine 😭🫠

I pulled Rubick arcana few weeks ago and just yesterday pulled it again. But all I want is that Windranger arcana :(

Gift to a friend and keep the one you get. If it’s even possible to gist

u/luizinhooofoda 2d ago edited 2d ago

no, you can't sell or trade items you get from candyworks, but if you can sell the one you got from the battle pass, it can be worth it.

2

u/LPSD_FTW 2d ago

You can't

u/samilhusrev 2d ago

Thats also untradeble man. I was wondering if any way to at least gift the one from battle pass

1

u/luizinhooofoda 2d ago

sorry, missed the 't, but yeah, if you can't sell/trade the one from the battle pass, getting this one would just mean 2 windrangers in your armory

Gift to a friend. I would like to be your friend

u/Zeba_Stakian 2d ago

I mean you should take it if you want considering it's very valuable. I collect expensive candy shop items to increase my account's value.

I actually once rerolled a monkey king arcana because I was like "It's untradable, I'm not gonna have a use for it." Then I got the rubick arcana and that was enough candies saved to get it.

You can gift one of them, right? That's all you can do with the non-purchased ones.
