Lamonte Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I just got one of these out of a grand toy pack. It's purple con with what looks like the gold emblem. From what i've read, it's just a quest to watch a shroud video on nar shaddaa and rewards choice of Major Experience Boost, Major Valor Boost or Credit Boom.... Was this item changed at all? Why is something lame like this a gold item? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the gear set is in collections so you can account unlock it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elracor Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) And the gear set is in collections so you can account unlock it. Yeh but tbh I'd suggest account unlocking the Datacrons so you can complete the missions on alts. Edited November 5, 2015 by MFollin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrwellworth Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 IIRC they took those datacubes out didn't they, because of complaining about buying quests. I'm surprised they can be found in the new grand packs. I always thought they were kind of neat, and rad that you could get a set of gear if you did them all. Was it a bronze toy pack? I may try to finish my collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamonte Posted November 5, 2015 Author Share Posted November 5, 2015 Was the grand toy pack. 100CCs. Was hoping for a kolto strike, but did get some nice regens. This shroud's didn't make sense that it is gold con considering the reward for each cube is very lackluster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamonte Posted November 5, 2015 Author Share Posted November 5, 2015 I haven't opened it, so no idea if the rewards have been changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamonte Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 Found and old 55 page rant post on the shroud's encrypted datacubes, with bioware responding ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hey everyone, Our plan with the Encrypted Datacubes was simply to see if packs would be another avenue of getting story content in the game. It will always be the Cartel Market teams goal to look for new and interesting things to add into the Cartel Market which are not gameplay impacting (avoiding pay-to-win, etc.). With that being said, we have heard your feedback loud and clear on this and we have no plans to place the Datacubes in the Cartel Market in the future. Thanks! -eric ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If there was so much hate generated by these items, why would they still have this in the grand toy pack? Not to mention its all old story that anyone can watch on youtube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
