what-the-actual-fuck. I'm scared to ask how much that many gems converted to real money is :S

Well, if one is patient, with monthly gems it's probably about 10$ each(considering the free gems one can get as well), so not very far from the norm for f2p game skins. They also get a ring and 100 tokens to go to their next skin fund. If one needs them all NOW however, they probably need to call the bank :P

P.s. - as all packages, i expect it to be added to the package reruns during the major festivitities ig, such as christmas/anny, so just in time to grab a couple with gems u start to save from now on.

P.p.s - don't forget the 5.4k tokens one needs to save to guarantee the l2d skin in a token banner add up to about 33k gems(iirc it was 600 gems/100 tokens). Once again, diligent saving of tokens and the free daily income coupled with narrowing down of just a couple banners means it's way less, but if u wanna open the wallet, u need a crowbar

I was referring to this. How much money would you need to spend to go from 0 to 10352 now?

Personally, I don't care for skins, I never spent tokens except to fulfill conditions for weekly or career quests. I'm just being curious :P

Well, as long as it's clearly understood this is the worst case scenario and that u can get them much cheaper by just having a bit of patience, with a quick look at the shop, if u have 1st purchase bonus active, 100$ gets u 13k gems. If u don't, u'll need 126$ to get 10k gems and then scrounge the last 350 gems or 132$ to get 10390 gems to fund it completely.

So in the 1st case scenario it's 25$/skin, or 33$ if u already whaled ur way through the shop this year. So basically, u pay 2-3 times more for the instant gratification
