  • Most people are complaining/mad because of the price change yes. Majority are mad that HK had 12 whole hours to get the ninjas half off. Others had an opportunity too, but less time. RIP LA never had a chance. Most people wouldn't be mad if this was avoided in the first place.

people should stop being jealous then, they are mad someone else got something good and they didn't. I'm on the LA servers so sure I could have gotten a cheap 5* 5ksm if we got this, but you want to know what I say to the people who got a chance for cheaper ninjas? I say congrats. Simple as that, I don't care that oasis made a mistake, not surprised by now either. I don't need to be mad that I can't get what others could, that's how life works, don't be jealous of others, be happy for them that they were able to get such a good deal off of the mistake oasis made instead of being mad that you can't abuse that mistake as well.

Charm Material boxes put it in perspective better imo....Average of 160-180 (barely over 8 foodsacks at 3 point average) coups from sakura's gift....125 coups from the shop that is always there....

I don't think most players are jealous because people got ninjas cheaper, but just angry at how unfairly they are being treated. Imagine going to your favorite store and you heard that they had a deal on an item you wanted, but as soon as it was your turn to get your item the price was no longer a discount. I imagine most people would be angry at that point not at the customer who was in front of them, but how the company handled the sale. I understand mistakes do happen, but this was handled incorrectly. They could of just allowed their mistake to play out the rest of that 24 hour period. Then after that period instead of raising the price of foodsacks why not change the redeem price for the ninja?


Instead they changed the price of foodsacks, which now overprice adv runes and who know what else (didn't look into pricing). So many ways they could of handled it, but changing the price of foodsacks wasn't the best option.

  • It was not. The one with Killer Bee was indeed 10 coupons but the event originally started at 20 coupons/foodsack.

It's been 10 Coupons since last year.

Just posting it again, because the last one got deleted due to "Advertising".

It was deleted on another thread, so either the mod hasn't seen this thread yet or the reason why they took it down was false
Was covering basis.

No, fool. Oasis told people when they were first asked that the prices were intentional. After ppl complained, then they turned around and said sorry it was a bug.

People do have a right to be angry but the way the majority of people are voicing their thoughts sounds like they are jealous and bitter. There is a difference between how you explained your frustration (which is acceptable) vs. responses like this "oasis you $uck, you scammer, give me compensation, etc." Back to your example of sale at a store, it pretty much looks like a customer that can either try to understand what happened and make an informed decision to proceed their next move vs. a customer that automatically protest.

Do me a favor and please search for the 5/25 foodsack price --if you have time that is, as I can't seem to find it myself. If it is indeed 10 then I stand corrected. Regardless of the previous price, we sincerely apologize for any and all inconveniences this situation has caused all of you and if you feel like it, please leave your opinion and feedback of the matter here in this thread.

thats generaly how sales work. they are there for a time and then they are gone. if you have ever tried shopping on black friday that scenario can happen the first person to grab the item gets the sale, the 2nd has to wait for restocking after the sale ends.


the price for the normal items increased, and unless u r a whale u shouldnt be buying the items there even at the normal price, so again, there is no reason for people to complain as if they have half a brain they werent buying those items anyway. 25 points for charms, 2.5 points average per 10cp means 100cp for a charm pack, right now we have an item in the shop that gives 50 packs for 4kcp, so 20% off vs 36% off, so yeah, you shouldnt be uying them even at the normal 10cp per food pack.


and as i said in my previous post, they reduced the cost of the ninjas this week in the event which helps f2p who arent spending in the event.


also your example is bad, its not the first person got a sale and the 2nd one didnt. the first person went to the register and the register bugged out and showed the wrong number, the second person got the right number, why be angry when you are getting something at the normal prices just because someone else got them at lower prices?


no1 is making you angry but yourself, just stop being angry since your anger wont help you at all, it will only make you look like a child whining about not getting what you want.

    no1 is making you angry but yourself, just stop being angry since your anger wont help you at all, it will only make you look like a child whining about not getting what you want.

Generally sales advertise whats going to be on sale and how long the sale will be. And Sakura's gift is one of the best ways to get cheap ninja's for f2p if they know how to save coupons. Jonin Minato was what little over 5k recently there and if you saved up 9k coupons you could of got a very good deal on 5k Madara. Shusui was like 4.5k and speed of light was like 2k. So yes the event was very good for f2p even if you wanted adv runes considering they were like half off store price.


'also your example is bad, its not the first person got a sale and the 2nd one didnt. the first person went to the register and the register bugged out and showed the wrong number, the second person got the right number, why be angry when you are getting something at the normal prices just because someone else got them at lower prices?"

*I am angry at the fact arena and other cross server events are riddled with 5k Madara because no one seems to have looked at the event/rewards before it made it to live servers. And my example wasn't bad. Clearly stated that's not how good businesses works.


"and as i said in my previous post, they reduced the cost of the ninjas this week in the event which helps f2p who arent spending in the event."

*Plenty of f2p spend their saved coupons on Sakura's gift. It's one of the best events


"no1 is making you angry but yourself, just stop being angry since your anger wont help you at all, it will only make you look like a child whining about not getting what you want."

*Honestly didn't have enough coupons to even get anything there. Mad about the fact how they are handling the situation and if you have been with this game for 2 years+ you will see Oasis's bad track record of handling these types of situations. Remember the promised mood scrolls in group wheel? I do, but that's been over a year now. Are you really saying you 100% agree with how Oasis is handling this issue? If so maybe you should be a GL if you aren't already one.


EDIT: It would seem that you joined the new forums when they were released and I assume you remember what happened. I just don't think you understand what this will do to the meta? Other regions will now have the upper hand on regions who didn't get the opportunity to get the 5k Madara (who will now be everywhere) and Shusui. After this though I will no longer respond. As stated I am mad about how they are handling the situation not over jealousy. Even if the pricing stayed I still wouldn't be able to get any of the ninja (maybe speed of light). Redeem prices should of been changed not foodsacks. That's all I am saying and yes people do have the right to be mad. This was a pretty big mistake and should've been avoided before it went to live servers. Just the simple fact it took 12 hours to detect (HK servers) is not good. If you are ok with that then good for you. I have a right to be angry (not jealous that will get you no where in this game) and if you aren't angry you are in the minority. As I have said Oasis has a track record of poorly handling situations like this and you should remember.

There's one video of 5/25/2017, it unfortunately doesn't show the food sacks and I searched quite a bit, there doesn't seem to be a video other than 1 that show cases the events for that period.

That said, I never remember this being more than 10 coupons & I've been playing since I think around September-Oct last year? It's been 10 coupons for that period.

So, I referenced my spreadsheet of past event costs. Here are the past prices for Adv Refine Runes. And sacks always cost 10 coupons, adv runes always cost 6 points. And until 5.0 the points per food sack was just shy of 2 points/sack (1.9).

12-21-2017--- 30 coupons per rune

1-18-2018--- 30 coupons per rune

2-15-2018 --- 30 coupons per rune

3-15-2018 --- 30 coupons per rune

4-19-2018 --- 30 coupons per rune

5-10-2018 --- 30 coupons per rune

6-14-2018 --- 30 coupons per rune

7-12-2018 --- 30 coupons per rune

8-9-2018 --- 30 coupons per rune

9-6-2018 --- 20 coupons per rune (drop rate changes to 3 points/sack)

10-4-2018 --- 40 coupons per rune (sack price raised to 20/sack)

If your question is the one in the picture then no, it will not damage the gear. It is safe to do that.
