Feedback on New Microtransactions

Been loving the new MTX! It's very nice to see a new sort of direction of the possibilities you can do with them, but I do sometimes still love a good old armour pack or the like :)
new mtx are the way to go compared to days past. def an improvement and better value overall and no wasted gambles - but does this mean no more shirts?

I purchased the top-end of both Sentinel Supporter packs, usually do for each league. This said, one would be simply amazed at how much of the pack's skins I just do not see a use for; as in, not my style.

I have to agree with comments regarding the mystery box "no duplicates" issue as we have different views of "no duplicates". I get GGG views different colors as a non-duplicate, but, as the consumer, I disagree and have lost the desire to purchase any other mystery boxes.

Overall, this league's purchases, which I am happy with, have been on-sale one-offs.
A window where you could see what you have and have not collected from the mystery boxes. I'm sure A LOT of people would be happy about this.

The current system for body, helmet and maybe gloves seem to be in heavy beta right now. It doesn't feel quite right and the effects aren't good enough, too limited.

I don't always say this, but the "Ring of the Black Star" might be a little too flashy and take too long. Does it do what it's intended to do? Absolutely, but too well! I don't doubt for a second if a lot of people end up unequipping it during level phase or even maps once they seen it enough.

Shavronne's tome. I... don't know? It feels odd, but I can't quite explain how.

Unrelated, could be a bug, could go into detail about this later. I switched from one of the flare effect to my madcap character effect and I saw this very pleasant red effect around the character. Maybe look into making that official?

The soul harvester's cloak. Interesting concept but it like most of the stuff suffers from that early game dilemma where it's not as flashy as you might like it to be. Haven't gotten far enough yet but I know I have better back attachments than the 6000 kills variant.

Grim Reaper apparition. (p.s, note my bio below) It behaves differently from other apparitions. It would be nice if all apparitions had this lingering effect and also had this temporary spawn effect.
Ring of the exorcist is a bit behind in terms of when the effect triggers after the kill, but I imagine little could be done about it.

Searing quicksilver is one of the better effects, it's... perfect. Maybe make the sound effect cooler, make a little screenshake effect?
I usually do not read popular posts again after i made a comment on it, unless it's one of my own. I wish to have a Black robed Grim Reaper micro set in game one day, grant my wish, GGG
I love the kirac vault, the unique mtx are pretty cool
no duplicates on the new mistery box is great however i wouldn't have minded a higher price and slightly more environment/ hideout stuff instead of skins in different colours.
it really does feel like a scam, you get set pieces and then they don't match do single pieces and keep the higher price for that please i think it will be worth enough to not fill the box up like that.
in general some really cool concepts there!

mystery without duplicates is very good - we (I) dont have to spend 100 bucks again in hopes to get portals to combine, give up trying and discover later on that the same portals are available in shop for 15 bucks total *mad*

I think we have heard major arguments why the vault pass is too expensive. I suppose ggg has made a market research to figure out if it would make more in total with price being 20 or 10 instead 30 =)
I like the new supporter pack idea and my favorite is the Ghost-lit Graveyard Hideout.
This system is WAY better.
First of all, I would like to see more skills mtx, they are by far the best to have <3
And about the armour I would like not only a color change but something like the green and red color armour being shaped a bit differently, for example the stormrider boots leaving a more fiery looking trail on the red variation
even tho I don't buy much stuff, is the price of 50 points per box really final ? From my perspective seems like a unnecessary increase... but you guys know better than 99% of us
I LOVE THIS GAME, POE IS AMAZING, LOVE GGG, FANTASTIC UPDATES AS ALWAYS, 10/10 GAME, FUN, BEST GAME EVER, POE2 WILL FIX EVERYTHING IN LIFE

I think I've said enough, can I get maybe a tabula from hillock next league...?
I wish that the Reaper pack had an armour set or at least another scythe weapon. There are not enough scythe weapon skins in the game.
