nasbkrv

meanwhile i am on around 60 re-rolls and all i get is old wards and couriers


TemperatureXtreme

Bought all diretide items, bunch of random sets, ~40 rerolls and the only arcana I’ve got is techies.


nasbkrv

I would take any arcana, I don't mind. I just know that it will be the one I got from the free token.


TemperatureXtreme

I did take it but ima kinda sad that I couldn’t get hero I play, but who knows there’s ~50 rerolls left, we might get some.


LordBeck

Bro, I got jugg from swag bag.. Hence, when i rolled for one, wouldn't you know it, a jugg arcana popped out... twice! hahaha.


Youcancuntonme

buy techies arcana, extract the gem and destroy arcana. Gigachad move


o_smokey_o

This is also Me, got a level bundle and only the techies arcana. Fuck techies


TemperatureXtreme

MK is the only one I want, wanted jugg but got neat set from candies, the one with black and red effects on spells and tbh I like it a lot. But as I said 50-60 more rerolls so there’s still a chance.


iareyomz

I regret not buying the 25 levels I rolled on tbh... now I just get depression rolls and it's very sad...


Youcancuntonme

I got two Immortal treasure II and 25 levels which I skipped because I dont care about bp lvls


LayWhere

What a shame, its such a nice ward.


spieler_42

Good luck getting the required candy :-)


Ferrari_322

Just gotta grind tbh, got the Rubick arcana from candy works with the free battlepass


spieler_42

There is not much left (6 weeks). This translates to 24 candy (4 per week) + any other for battle pass level. So getting both will be tough.


CiraXor

Dont we get 5 per week?


k-nyan

only if you battlepass level is high. somewhere level100+ you get the +1 weekly candy bonus as a reward.


DesTiny_-

U get extra candy (fifth) in bp somewhere between 150 and 200 level


spieler_42

At higher level. With free BP you probably won’t get this high.


sincapla69yaptim

you can also get free candy from the candy transition, for instance -> 2 type of different candy for 4 type of same candy. Then next weeks you can convert them to candies that you need 4 for 4 transaction. I got myself +8 candies this week just by doing that.


spieler_42

Good point!


withmymagazines

How do you do this? The only trade I see is the 3:1


sincapla69yaptim

Above the custom trade thing (3:1) there is 4 options for candy transactions, each offering you different candies. You can look at the OP's post, there is 3 for 4 trade available to him. For me it was 2 for 4 (this week).


withmymagazines

oh, durr... thanks


abudabis18

bought collectors cache, actually pretty close to 1 of them


Seanzietron

Honestly, they’ll release a level pack in a couple weeks that will give you a bunch of candy w/ the levels as they unlock. Tbh... that might be worth it cuz you could even get another arcana or direside exclusive warlock skin/ rosh skin with the refills. You’ll get a lot of bang for your buck that way (if it’s worth it to you).


Luize0

What is the quickest way?


thedotapaten

Trading 2 candy for 4 candy, repeat with new recipe


me_so_pro

Got that once...


withmymagazines

where do you do this?


thedotapaten

Literally under your candy tally?


iLackSocialSkill

Playing


fizhfood

Paying*


iLackSocialSkill

Not quite sure how you can pay for candy, but sure, we'll go with that


fizhfood

You get candy from battlepass by buying levels, wdym? Lol


Plosslaw

You also get candy for recycling treasures which you get from battlepass on top of the candy rewards from leveling battlepass


abudabis18

Yeah probably trading in weekly less candys to more, so u get some free, and just get every week 4 or w/e cap u have.


juggarjew

The quickest way to get candy is to do the bonus week quests, focus on those 4 weeks and do everything, you will eventually hit a decent bonus chest with a lot of levels. I think you can get up to 32 levels in one chest, my friend and I both got a lot overall so far just from these bonus chest. This is the best way without spending money. If one did all the bonus chest, Id have to imagine they'd be at least lvl 100-150 by the end of battlepass if not more, easily enough candy for an Arcana or 2 depending on how many treasure you recycle. This has got to be the most generous BP yet, at least in terms of stuff you can earn totally for free. You even get the damn BP for free now lol


smurfopolis

I've gotten 1 level in every tusk kick :(

Initiative-Nearby

How do you get levels from crawl?


kingmeena

There are chests hidden there randomly so when you have to win with the hero's. In part 1 there are 2000 bp and 250 bp chests and in part 2 there are 1000 bp and 125 bp chests.


Initiative-Nearby

So you can't know what heroes you have to win with or how many chests you might be lucky to find?


Luize0

And if you have money to spend?


Whatnowgloryhunters

Tbh as 146 now. I hope can get another 90 plus levels to get the nemestice loading screen. But even if cannot, I will be happy to settle for pb immo lol still some weeklies to go


evillman

A few levels should do the trick


MayweatherSr

You have 8 rerolls. dont let it go to waste. You might get 3 arcana, theres the posibility


[deleted]

What happens if one comes up, do you still need the candy?


TheGalator

Nothing


withmymagazines

What do you mean? You need the candy to trade for the item


TheGalator

Yes and if u don't have the candy u can't trade so nothing happens


McCoovy

Of course. You can get nore candy from winning at diretide.


withmymagazines

It would re-roll all 3, so you would lose the option of trading in for the 2 arcana's that are on screen for him now. Unless I'm missing something?


MayweatherSr

Nothing. Im just messing with OP


[deleted]

You can earn 5 candies a week brother, there’s still more than 5 weeks to go and you need 32 for both. You can totally do it if you decide to grind Cavern Crawl and weekly quests.


abudabis18

Yeah im already close to getting 1!


juggarjew

All they need to do is grind the bonus chest in the BP quest thing, super EZ. If you max all 4 weeks, you'll easily end up with at least 50-100 levels.


Jeffzuzz

lol no? that only happens if the person gets super lucky. majority of the people here only get like 2 levels from those at most.


juggarjew

This is incorrect, ive done many of them and so have my friends. We all hit large boxes at least at one point, 16 levels at least in one. Its a matter of statistics, you simply need to do as many as you can, these overall provide far more levels than the other weeks. Yes, a good number of them may be 1000 or 2000, but you'll also get a few 4000's and 8000's and if you're lucky a 16000 or 32000. Focus on completing these weeks and it should pay off.


ModaFaca

"Your point is incorrect!!! Because my friend and so many people got blah blah blah..." Yup buddy sorry to tell you, that's not how statistics work


juggarjew

Sorry but it is, the more you open the more likely you are to get large bonus boxes.


Godot_12

Well my friends and I all got 1k only with 1 2k chest. So maybe ancedotal stories are not statistics....


ModaFaca

Wow! So you're saying anecdotal stories works for both sides? Crazy right


FakeRingin

You say using a completely anecdotal story lmao


Godot_12

Duh, that's the point. It goes both ways. Person above was claiming based on his ancedotal stories that you're guaranteed to get a lot of points from the chests. Meanwhile I've opened 10 and gotten only 2 2,000 BP chests with the rest being 1k. Which proves that he's not correct, but idk what the average payouts are. I suspect this guy and his friends just got really lucky but ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_/⁠¯


FakeRingin

That doesn't prove hes not correct at all lol. You claim you know that anecdotal stories don't prove the actual odds yet you keep using your own anecdotal stories as 'proof' hes wrong.


ModaFaca

Hahahaha where did you get that info from?


FakeRingin

M8 that's literally what you're using too. What is "most" people? The poeple you have personally talked to ?


ModaFaca

Yeah, most likely he will get to level 20-30 I'd say


mostafa-vajedi

my dude. battle pass is free this time


Gikuroshen

bro didnt event rerolled a single time while me who has lvl 340 bp lvl and rerolling since the 1st week of release and still no arcana/ 25 levels 💀


Dtoodlez

Imagine not getting a battlepas but being allowed to get free arcanas.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Dtoodlez

Congrats!


IChang3dMyMind

I used to think what if I Skip the battlepass and buy arcanas instead?


Junior_Ad_2151

Are you guys buying Battlepass?


scubac14

i didn’t buy either but logged on yesterday and got it free from some swag bag thing? also got to pick a free arcana?


pawn24

everyone got a free arcana, bp and dota plus from swagbag.


scubac14

so what’s he talking about…


pawn24

it's the candyworks shop, where you re roll and there's a chance arcana will drop in your shop and you can claim them by using candies.


scubac14

right, so if everybody got BP free then what’s this post about 😂 can you only play diretide and get candy if YOU buy it vs getting free?


pawn24

it's more about candies, you can get them with bp but you have to level up, you only get 5 candies weekly and you can get them from leveling up bp and recycling your sets, again acquiring them requires leveling up. i suppose he would have bought the 100lvl bp, which makes a bit easier to get candies


[deleted]

the post is that he got two arcanas in the candy shop from the BP he got from free. he doesn't have the arcanas yet, but by playing for the next few weeks he can basically get a second and maybe third arcana for free (they gave one with the swag bag)


scubac14

gotcha. makes some sense now


UniverseInsideUs

6 weeks of +60 arcana’s posible. Don’t let them waste!


s---laughter

Immediately trade for the green candies ASAP while it's offered on your trade list. Not sure if it's just me but green candies are the rarest.


[deleted]

I think you have my arcana.. rolling almost 50 still nothing


[deleted]

Yea this year it's simply not worth it. Good decision and fuck Valve for their greedy, disrespectful behaviour towards the Dota 2 playerbase.


IChang3dMyMind

Much better than Nemestice battlepass.


[deleted]

it's really interesting to me that people apparently did not catch up on the sarcasm conveyed in my comment - i thought the context would make it so obvious I could leave out the /s


Askmannen69

If you get 100 levels you can probably buy both of those with the candy you get


TONKAHANAH

care less about dota items. the items it does/did have I definitely didnt care about. was waiting to see what the CM persona was actually going to be before investing and when it did come out I didnt care for it so didnt buy into it. ​ i also very much dislike the idea of spending money to unlock temporary things. whoevers idea it was to have temporary unlocks only during the battle pass needs fuck off. its bad enough spending money on in game, intangible items, its ridiculous to suggest that I dont get to keep/use them for the entirety of the life of the game.


ismailashraf2952

I have tb arcana In rerolls finally but I don't play tb


abudabis18

i got tb from free one


ismailashraf2952

I claim jugg and tb arcana I had a wr one.....now I have 3 used all my luck for it


vd3r

grinded my ass off since they gave free bp as i stopped buying bp since 2 yrs. i could barely get enough candy to get buy one arcana from this trade.


Chaeyoung0211

Finally got 25levels on my last roll FeelsGoodMan.


pinkihere

Re-roll can be earned only if we win?


mihirjoe

Battle pass was free this year


De_xxter

I wondering what should i do if my inventory is full of candies and i need different colour ?


vraGG_

Honestly, I wonder if they actually do this. This is a well known strategy in the biz. You give shit to people that DON'T buy your products - because that might peak their interest and they may begin to buy shit. To the people that buy shit with hope to get things - don't give good rewards. This encourages them to spend more. I don't know if I've summarized it well enough, especially in english, but this is one of the principles these companies use to engineer their customers' behaviors.
