Lumina Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Some people are playing a lot. Some people are buying skins (to players or to klei depending of skins), some are crafting/trading skins in game. Some are doing a mix of all the different options.

ZeZesRevenge Posted August 27, 2018 Author Share Posted August 27, 2018 I play the game quite much but still hasnt got anything beautiful yet. And can I obtain old event Items and such? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And can I obtain old event Items and such? The current skin system is garbage. Even if you play a lot, the odds of the higher rarity are so low you're lucky just to ever see one. And it will likely not be a skin you wanted. So if you want a specific skin, you'll likely have to buy it. You can not get old event items unless they're tradeable. Otherwise you'll have to wait for the event to return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And can I obtain old event Items and such? Currently you cannot get or weave old event skins. Maybe they'll be accessible at a later point, but nothing is confirmed on that. But the winter and halloween skins will likely return this year too, at the same time as last year (again, likely, not surely). Getting nice skins takes quite... long. They are extremely rare.

ZeZesRevenge Posted August 27, 2018 Author Share Posted August 27, 2018 I will get elegant skins at some point but... I want forge skins.I do not think forge will return so I won't get forge skins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumina Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Forge will return, i'm pretty sure it was confirmed somewhere here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, devs wrote about this - all events should back. 18 hours ago, Sinister_Fang said: The current skin system is garbage.

I play since closed beta - never got elegant head skin only from event i bought // I have 2k hours in DST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowDuelist Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I play since the game got out of beta, 1800 hours in, and got about 3 head skins and 5 or 6 elegant clothing. You get them, its just pretty hard and takes a very long time. The market has waaay too pricey items, I wouldn't recommend unless you really really want a specific skin you are not able to get otherwise. The best thing to do IMHO is to weave and buy events skins: You'll have a lot of stuff to play with, they are quite easy to craft if you play during the events, and if you buy them, they have reasonable prizes while you help the devs to continue support the game.

Zeklo Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I have 2,707 hours in the game. I've only gotten 2 (maybe 3, can't remember) elegant skins from normal gifts. Your chances of getting elegants is much greater during events as the chests grant 4 items (and might have a raised chance, unsure). That said I have a total of 70 elegants. Primarily by purchasing the skin packs during events, or grinding for spool during events. Those last options are your best chance at getting (certain) skins, though not all skins can be obtained like this (and doing so can take a lot of time). Acquiring a complete collection of non-event skins will require you to visit the steam market for less than ideal prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeZesRevenge Posted August 28, 2018 Author Share Posted August 28, 2018 So I will be able to collect my collection even it is nearly impossible, right? Thank you guys for informing me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you really play a lot you should have 4 skins per week. At this exact moment I have 545 hours in DST. I have 220 skins, because I'm very active.

Crystal Kourosh Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 getting good skins is pretty much based on your luck as an example when i bought the game i gifted the second copy to my friend while he has far lesser playtime he got 3 elegants with 130 hours of play whilst i have about 390 hours and the best ive got was the "austere endtable" which i got very recently also from personal experience the most players the most likely you will get a gift i played with my friends for an hour and i got 2 gifts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear about this situation a lot, and after long breaks from playing the game it seems like one of my first few gifts are usually a spiffy or better. Of course, there's not really any proof... but it seems like a fairly suspicious coincidence to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also noticed this... two friends of mine, who rarely ever play (we play once every 2-3 month, or even more rarely), get a lot better skins in average then me. And just you said, it could be coincidence... but it's a bit much of coincidence in my opinion. But who knows... Btw, as I played on a Klei Official someone just go the bumble spear. I don't know how much hours they got, but they didn't know (yet) how rare this skin actually is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
