No More damn stickers!!

CP stands for Community Portal.  Meaning you can get that missing sticker item through and only a Community Portal event.  And those events, usually happen....what?  once a month? or once every two months?

I am right there with you.  Im missing about 100+ stickers and it drop rates are extremely frustrating.  That is why, at this point, coins really dont mean anything to me, its all about filling in those missing blocks from the sticker book.  The Portal events where they say the pay out is a "Legendary item" - it is actually not true for high rank players. High rank players who meet the CP minimum quota, will only get coins.  That is why, when the RED chest is labeled as "Special item" - I actually prefer that, than coins, rather than the bogus "Legendary item" prize.

At this point, I have given up analyzing on what the actual EA/PopCap metrics looks like.  It is so random that there really is no science to it.

I just grind for my weekly 50 rainbow stars for the 3 item chest.  Then do it again for the 30 rainbow star chest, ... then the 10 rainbow star chest.

Then, grind another 50 in preparation for the following week's chest.

Thats what? 140 rainbow stars.

For you and other high rank players, Its all about the grind for rainbow stars.

I'm lucky I'm not collector or perfectionist.

I see so many frustrations in this department. This definitely needs to change for future GW3. 

If you put promotional packs for these stickers (like the infinite packs) Even if they cost 500,000 I would appreciate it very much.

Don't feel bad, most of us have clocked over 1000 hours on this sticker book. Quite a bit more time than just hitting 5455. (*sigh* I miss the simplicity of GW1.) I also am a completionist so I understand how you feel, though I am a ways away from having to worry about low drop rates. (1000+ from completion)

What I want before this game is left on permanent auto pilot like GW1 is a Super Amazing Stupendous Pack. (Yeah, they have a weird naming scheme.) Anyway, for XXX coins you get ~2-5 stickers (pack size negotiable) that can be ANYTHING you don't have. That means RUX, IT, CP, Holiday, CC and regular. The price WILL be more than earning them individually but still fair. (Right, Popcap? You would never be unfair in pricing would you?) The only things not there are the deluxe upgrades and Unicorn Chomper. Once the game is thrown into auto pilot everyone should have the right to a complete stickerbook. It will cost coins but at least it is possible. GW1 has a real issue with this, since none of the Holiday or Community items can ever be earned again. GW2 has even more "event" specific items to obtain. So yeah, new sticker pack that can drop anything the player is missing. (This also means there would never be any consumables in the packs.)

Wait until you're really close to finishing the sticker book (excluding RUX, IT and CP).  Getting one sticker from a 35K pack feels like winning the lottery.
