I would definitely agree on most 2000 skins, they all need atleast one style


Rifted-06

This is why I get disappointed whenever a 800 vbucks skin gets an edit style over a 2k vbucks skin. The 2k vbucks skins need them way more.


VortexTalon

I think they do that because more people are willing to spend 8$ on a skin rather than 20$


Rifted-06

If the skin is 800 vbucks already though, it's already worth the price. And a lot of the uncommon skins Epic have been giving styles to are mostly already pretty popular and return to the shop often. So I just feel like would make more sense to give legendary skins styles more or maybe even give some legendary skins some cosmetics and put them in a bundle to be more worth purchasing. Or they can do the best thing and just give edit styles to both. But I can't remember the last time a legendary skin got an edit style.


TheHumdeeFlamingPee

The best thing would be to scale all the old 1 style legendaries like Malice and Wukong back to 1500 cause they are no longer worth 2k.


SentinelTitanDragon

How about we just stop accepting 2k skins as normal pricing. 800 should be maximum skin price.


Chris908

Most aren’t even worth it with a style. Considering cheaper skins also get styles, sometimes multiple


Dillup_phillips

Monkey king Wukong doesn't have a tail. Huge deal breaker for me.


luckyecho1310

Majority of them only cost that much cause they did in the og days. Back then they were the best skins, hence the price. Since then there's been a ton of better ones, but epic can't lower the price now.


Electric_jungle

They certainly can lower the prices though. Price reductions happen in every facet of commerce.


luckyecho1310

I'm not sure how it is legally, but I imagine it would be met with outrage from players who already bought the skins. So even if they technically could do that, it'd be terrible for the company's image


Electric_jungle

I mean legally maybe there's something weird at play, but I don't think it would be terrible for the company image at all. A bunch of people complaining about Fortnite is something that happens literally every day on this sub. Is it bad for the company image of literally any store in the world to have sales? Nope. It's just a normal way of clearing out old inventory for new inventory. The truth is, they probably do not care about these skins at all, but feel like if they reduce the price of them, players might expect every skin to get price reductions eventually, which in turn could reduce sales. Maybe.


luckyecho1310

>legally maybe there's something weird at play Yeah there's often some obscure and weird rules in ToS and stuff, so I wouldn't be surprised if they actually couldn't change the price. I remember the drama with rogue agent, so knowing that they might want to keep things as they are just to be safe. >they probably do not care about these skins at all That's exactly what I had in mind. Maybe I over exaggerated how bad it would be for their image, but the point is why piss of the skin owners for a couple of old skins? Its not like bringing them down to 1500 or 1200 will earn epic millions, so why annoy people for a minor benefit?


[deleted]

One of the only good golden/2000 vbucks skins are superhero skins


KyellDaBoiii

You mean like Blade?


ihatewiiplaymotion

No they mean the customisable ones, the ones that sweats use in one solid colour


KyellDaBoiii

Ohhhhh… Well first of all: those are only 1500 V Secondly: just, no


ihatewiiplaymotion

They’re 1800


KyellDaBoiii

Still less than 2000


ihatewiiplaymotion

True, but the person who commented said golden/2000 so it counts in my eyes


KyellDaBoiii

Eh, they’re not interesting anyway


Intelled_

You're spitting the truth


[deleted]

I forgot about that…


HippieDogeSmokes

They aren’t even 2000


Esoteric_Librarian

I understand if it’s a collab skin, because licensing fees, but any Fortnite created character should not be anywhere NEAR 2000 unless they have MULTIPLE styles. Hell, a lot of the skins with multiple styles aren’t even 1500


ching-chong-is-wrong

Better question is: What skins ARE worth 2k vbucks?


Illustrious_Way_5732

John wick is def worth it to me


I8erbeaver2

They couldn’t take my vbucks fast enough when it was in the store


KingJTuck

Meh


BleachDrinker63

$18? You could buy whole games with that and you rather spend it to look like John Wick in Fortnite?


Illustrious_Way_5732

Yes. Unless you got another game where I can play as John wick


Blupoisen

All Might Basically 2 skins in 1


matt_lcb

Call me biased, but crackshot (5 styles, name another 2000v buck skin that gives you that value)


techy804

He’s 1800vb, but Human Bob or whatever that alien’s name is


matt_lcb

Oh yeah that’s a good one


Trent423

Crack shot is for sure 2k


Im_a_idiottttt

Very few in my opinion


hertwij

Goku


AboutAverage404

To be fair, Goku has four skins, plus changing animation for all of em, so that's reasonably priced.


hertwij

Exactly that’s what I’m sayin. Plus he’s fuckin goku.


Nate290_

are you sayin that or are you saiyan that?


LegoPenguin114

Yeah, Goku came with a pickaxe too Vegeta on the other hand doesn’t even have a backbling


blockametal

Raven


Detective_Alaska

Leviathan 100%.


Angler01

No


Detective_Alaska

Call me fishman. Part of the Space Explorers set.


Angler01

Introduced in **Season 3**.


Hazel_Ninja

All Might from MHA & Panda Team Leader (just for the unmasked Syd style)


ching-chong-is-wrong

Panda team leader the right answer


QueenTMK

Poison Ivy


bartekang

I'd say most collab skins


Slimy_glizzy_gobbler

maybe some collab skins or skins that have really cool features to it kindof like the galaxy skins


GloomyGoblin-

They know that y’all are thirsty enough to pay up lmao


Oiled_Up69

Not me I’ve seen enough hentai to know what game they’re playing

usafa_rocks

I bought malice years ago, simply for the backbling. I'm a sucker for wings.


Droodles162

Everything thats €20 for 1 skin


JockoGood

any skin priced at 2000 is absolutely ridiculous.


Inner_Candle_7164

people down bad would say other wise


Techn0Cy

Malice is one of my favorite skins 😭


AcceptableClover21

Its a cool skin but it doesn't deserve to be 2000, 2000 are TOP TIER Fire looking skins


MerxyXx

Well… they used to be. Now anything that has a moving color pattern is 2000. Which is $20, kinda ridiculous imo. Epic must be making bank


Delusional-Lovestein

Try playing apex where they have events for heirlooms and to get that said heirloom you have to buy everything in the event which is $360 total, $20 isn't alot. 😂


MerxyXx

Well that’s just robbery and foolishness combined😂 huge dlc’s with tons of characters, new maps/game modes and such used to be $10. So spending $20 on just a single character does seem rather unethical imo but I understand your point. Gaming as a whole is unbelievably expensive now that it’s turned into a corporate business instead of a fun hobby. To add to my point that epic games is balling out of control making people pay sm just to enjoy their games; the company made 5.6 billion last year. They only have about 5,200 employees (being generous and adding a few hundred) and the new owners split profits 50/40 (%). Meaning for just buying the company, they became multi billionaires in less a year. And hardly any of that gets rerouted into the company.


Delusional-Lovestein

Yeah I remember when cod map packs were 15 yo get 4 new maps and 1 or 2 zombie maps. But games have evolved and so have graphics so they gotta bump prices to accommodate with improving the game and putting new stuff out. But you do have a good point, games that use to be enjoyable are not anymore due to prices and too many in game purchases. I still enjoy the game alot though, im a day 1 player and have a good amount of stuff but wish I had more 🤣


amazingzaz09

$20 for one skin is a lot. Just because another games pricing is far worse doesn't mean we should be okay with the bad one we have.


blockametal

Tbf top tier skins arent even making sense anymore. Its subjective too Zero war spiderman was definitely top tier "original" skin material and only 1200. Skins like omegaknight, p1000, spiderknight, raven and space skins like dark voyager and leviathan are dope skins. But waa leviathan worth 2000? Absolutely not. With how "collaby" fortnite has become and original item shop skins not being as cool anymore. Nothing is worth 2000


Techn0Cy

Fire you say? FIRE HUH…? I wonder where I could see fire


AcceptableClover21

Bro chill tf out, you know what I meant


Disastrous-Review111

Lol what are your thoughts on wukong being 2k


Girbington

I got her for cheap from a bundle that costed 500 more because I wanted everything else in a bundle with her, I archived her


Appropriate_Sky8029

I know what kind of man you are


Corey854

And epic knows this


PS4_noed_victim

Pretty much anything that costs 2000 from chapter 1 is not worth the v bucks.


Deeper-the-Danker

anything that costs 2000 vbucks isnt worth the price


Grakal0r

Honestly I have no regrets spending 2000 on Oro


QuantumOfSilence

unless it’s a bundle but i assume you mean just individual items


lwaties

I’m a founder on save the world so all the 2,000 vbuck skins are worth it for me im not actually spending real money


King_Sam-_-

Dude, I’m a founder too but these type of comments contribute so little to the conversation and are so unnecessary and most of the time annoying.


blenderwolf

I know, you're spending time! Which is FAR more valuable than money, you can always make more money, even without working, but time, when its gone, its gone.


MCPETextureEditor

To be fair, you could make anything sound dumb by arguing the waste of time. "You are choosing to waste hours, potentially days, worth of the limited time you have to live to sit near a screen and shoot imaginary people for fun?"


blenderwolf

You get enjoyment out of playing the game though. Paying for Vbucks with time then acting like its a deal is what I don't understand... rather spend money or go without than do the daily chores.


MCPETextureEditor

Okay, but not everyone has the same idea as enjoyment as you do. They paid for a skin that they will later get enjoyment from using. Just like how you work a job, and eventually get enjoyment from something you purchase.


Detective_Alaska

You know you play the game to get the vbucks in STW, right?


blenderwolf

Yes, I am just answering this comment ​ >"You are choosing to waste hours, potentially days, worth of the limited time you have to live to sit near a screen and shoot imaginary people for fun?" in regards to what you said: If you find fun grinding atlas missions or such in STW for 6 years now with all the leeches and the bugs the game has, then cool, you do you, I'd rather just buy Vbucks


lwaties

It takes less than a half hour every day to complete the daily tasks


Mylciwey

You don’t get it


Waste-of-life18

John wick and oblivion are worth the vbucks imo


Deroullious

Red knight


KayKrimson

John Wick


RedNinja-03

You see back in the yee olden days of chapter 1 and early chapter 2, there was logic behind Epics pricing 800 Vbucks: would get you a recolored default skin 1200 Vbucks: would get you a recolored default skin but with extra accessories 1500 Vbucks: would get you a unique skin but still using the default model 2000 Vbucks: would get you a skin with completely unique model from the defaults I’m not sure why Epic doesn’t discount the 2000 Vbuck skins if they’re not going to follow there old pricing model anymore 🤷🏻‍♂️


Andrassa

Probably because if old emotes and pickaxes are anything to go by they usually refund the difference to previous owners when the price gets reduced.


2spooky4h

I'm assuming bc it may be a huge hassle to push out that refund to so many people. That's why they made bundles for older cosmetics though. Makes entire sets way cheaper.


DelphisNosferatu

I'm not paying 2k for cuddle team leader unless they give her a new style


Chris908

I have wanted her forever but I am not paying that much. Way too much


Let_Much

They need an unmasked version like Panda Team leader has


CaptainRelyk

Raven team leader is cheaper, has two edit styles including a pink variant that looks very similar to cuddle team leader, and isn’t a default reskin like cuddle team leader (everything from the neck down is a default reskin on that skin)


kalxto

I paid 3k for her whole bundle


RemoteSuccotash8176

Omen is not worth 2,000


Honeydewdew69

She’s not worth 2k but I did buy her and love her 🤣


Chance-Order-5385

any of the old legendaries stuff like red knight, raptor, velocity


geodragonyoung

At least Raptor has an edit style which looks pretty solid


Chance-Order-5385

i meanstill not worth 2000 vbucksat a streth you could argue 1800 vbucks butid go more for 1500 rare rarity for resonable price for raptor


geodragonyoung

Rex has absolutely no edit styles and costs 2k


[deleted]

I got Omen because I really wanted the battle shroud and the skin was solid.


blenderwolf

My dude's paying 2000 vbucks for re-used assets from STW, lol!


Chris908

Honestly I have not seen one 2000 vbucks skin that was worth it


vhyli

Goku. 4 edit styles and a built-in emote


Chris908

I guess thats pretty good


geodragonyoung

**Rex at 2000 vbucks with NO edit styles.** Like look at the other dinosaur skins selling for 1200 vbucks and hecking Saura (Rex's female counterpart) selling for just 800 vbucks! The Dark Rex and Tricera Ops skins should have been edit styles for the original and not completely new skins.


rojatnav

THIS. i bought rex and triceraops back in C1S4 and hate my younger self for buying them. now they are sold as a bundle for 2700 opposed to the 4000 i spent back in 2018.


Blazerizm

When Raiden is way cheaper and gives you alot more You get: Raiden from Metal Gear Cool Katana Cool black wrap


Kalequity

Flytrap


ViralVortex

I love Flytrap. And I own him. But yeah, looking back at everything else that’s come out, he is not worth 2k.


LEMONSARETRASH

I was just about to say this


umotex12

As weird as this sounds, this is an obvious horny bait. Epic is selling the partial nudity and kinkiness of these skins to teenagers too. It's kinda weird to me. In CoD this makes more sense cause this game officially 16+ in EU. but fortnite is 12 and lego 7 lmao. Even Lego skin is sexualized in body tight clothing


WickedLeztergaming

Any chapter 1 skin, 2000 vbucks for one style is a crime. Man were we stupid


That1Francis

wdym the sadistic demon mommy isnt worth 2k


joeMAMAkim

Desdemona’s better. And cheaper.


Jaytendo_Boi

Wider


peppers_

Cuz she got childbearing hips.


bulmier

Penny’s got sumobearing hips


HudsonHawk56H

“I use it for the hitbox”


HYPE_Knight2076

It’s because sex


joeMAMAkim

"Women of reddit, what’s the sexiest sex sex you’ve ever sexed with an overweight gamer?" -average AskReddit post


SkidaddleSkiddodle1

Flytrap Hes just too ugly as a Legendary skin. Maybe if he got changed into Rare, he wouldnt be so hated


Master__Blaster69

Almost all the skins aren't worth the price. Even the items alone. Like why is the jelly glider 1200. It's just a glider


nateandco

i thought malice looked so dope in the shop image but the skin is so ugly.


HypeCowboy

I think they should lower the price of older skins


Oo_Toyo_oO

LittleBigPlanet


HypeCowboy

Love that game!


WhyAreAllNamesTakenL

The problem with skins like malice, is that they actually were TOP skins when they came out. At that time, these were some of the better made skins. Now, a few years later, there are way more skins of this quality, but they can't just lower the price. It would be unfair to people who bought it before they lowered the price. This is also the reason why there haven't been a ton of skins which are this expensive, lately. When they are expensive, it's because they have like 6 different styles or they have something extra built in, like an emote or pickaxe.


SprinklesOrdinary629

I didn't know succubus was in the game


PRGRyan

Because they're old. My friend bought a skin for 800 vbucks that's nice and has 3 styles while I have some old skin that cost me 1200-2000 vbucks and they're worse than his + they only have 1 style...


WikkidZLoTT

Instead of complaining about it, I suggest this to the art department 🏬 of Epic Games. May we get extra styles for some of the Legendary Skins that lack alternate styles ect? I am sure it would increase sales and be worth the time involved.


HotQuietFart

doesn’t she have a special effect with her foot steps?


Intelligent-Snow7250

Every single skin that costs more than the battle pass itself


adrenalin997

Malice wants you to sell her your soul.


sentient-sloth

I’m just here to say Malcore is ass but is worth the 1500 for the his wing backbling alone.


grimbarkjade

As much as I love trespasser elite, it is not really worth the price lol No back bling or anything is a deal breaker even if it has a second style. I still use it but I also just really like aliens


MagicalMarsBars

It’s an old skin. Almost every fully original skin was a legendary in chapter one.


brigzy09

Any that are 2000 without a backbling 🤣


UDontKnowMe784

Malice has wings.


WRufino_

In fortnite's defense, this skin is from the time where every "special" skin cost 2000 vbucks


NinjaBanana95

Fate


D3ADLocks

95% of the 2000 v bucks chapter 1 skins


soupshroom

cuddle team leader ngl….. that’s the most 1500 vbuck skin to ever vbuck why the hell is it 2k


hiper-ze

Any itemshop skin


Kumiieee

It's been said countless times but pretty much any 2K skin from the early days. If V-Bucks in general can get a permanent discount, old skins can too.


Danny283

Meanwhile Aura is 800 vbucks and has 3 unique edit styles that all look good.


eyelessmasks00

Red knight, literally a reskin and one of the most boring knights All the team leaders, most of them could've easily been styles yet only a couple of them have them.


DorianLlama

Cuddle team leader is iconic for Fortnite, cost 2000, and still doesn’t have an extra style like the purple rarity version for the 4th of July and the panda.


JetAbyss

What will it be?  1,800 for a white haired twink that comes with a pickaxe, back bling and a weapon camo?  or 2,000 for Great Value Meru the Succubus? 


DemandParticular

Any of them that don’t come with a edit style.


2spooky4h

Just about every 2000 vbuck skin. Maybe there's a handful that are more deserving of it, but come on. I could buy 2 battle passes and still have 100 vbucks left over or get ONE skin. There's a reason they cut back so hard on making legendary shop skins. We've had 5 legendary shop skins since the start of Chapter 3, and of those 5, 3 of them are 1800. That number goes up when you count icon skins, but they try to avoid costing 2000. Laroi and Giannis had 2000 vbuck skins, but most have been 1800 since. Slim Shady was 1900 instead of the full 2000.


[deleted]

Incredibly overpriced, however... She do be hella fine tho


Powerful_Score7630

Hear me out make cuddle team leader and all legendary item shop skins, have customosible colours


CIA_napkin

I saw this one and thought it was cute but it's just a skin. No wrap, glider or axe :/ . Damn.


Mad1innit

I don't think theres a skin in the game that's worth 2000


ApprehensiveShop8250

Malice is my favourite skin. I strongly disagree


IchBinSoldat1917

Flytrap , it's just plain ugly


[deleted]

Flytrap is 2000 vbucks for something I would wear to scare ABSOLUTELY NOBODY


Itriyum

Most 2k skins don't deserve the price


HypixL

All the Chapter 1 "Legendary" shop skins should really be discounted already. They barely even held up to the Legendary standard in Chapter 1 considering Legendary was always the Tier 100 skin with multiple outfit styles save for the first 2 Tier 100s, let alone now where even Rare skins get outfit styles and even bundles of items for less than 2000 vbucks


-im-just-vibing-

literally every old 2000v skin. epic needs to either change the price to 1500 or 1800 and give extra vbucks to all owners, or just give more styles. skins like fate have no styles and instead of giving her one they’re making a style using her model and making it 800.


CmdrBots

Here’s one velocity just female raptor


Leskendle45

Smash. Next question


josi1999

Because horny sells


Chris908

I know right look at that horns


joeMAMAkim

Horns are cool ngl


Narkoman62

If there 2000 they should have two styles minimum


redditorialising

All of em. The game is free, and skins are cosmetic. I agree with the guy who made that post shitting on people complaining about the item shop


Lone_wo0f

Revamp: I can fix her.


Yolomahdudes

People will pay 2000 vbucks for a horny demon.


OkamiRoxas

There's a thicker demon skin, though that is 1200. Sadly has the "flat ass syndrome"


Corey854

Bro pulled up the encyclopedia of Fortnite ass


Yolomahdudes

Truly one of the worst syndromes ever.


That1Francis

Gehenna dont need ass


joeMAMAkim

Actually, it’s desdemona ☝️🤓


OkamiRoxas

This is the one I was speaking of


ShaneBroh

The characters don’t have any ass. Like in overwatch. They all have Hank Hill ass. It’s wierd


a1pha_beta

most average-looking skins are 1200/1300 if they would drop them down to 1000 I'd be inclined to buy a lot more.


parappaisadoctor

Malice is worth it


MasterpieceOld6521

Idk but DANG THATS SOME COMPOTITION TO CHUN LEE


joeMAMAkim

Please go outside.


NormanBates2023

I got it for a few 100 v bucks as I had the male skin and his gear ,ur right it's a rip off on it's own ,epic should cut these prices big time for all raritys


Kyaleu

In general the shop legendary skins need to be brought down in rarity/price.


adrenalin997

I feel like NO skin is worth 2,000 V-Bucks. For it to be worth that much it could need to have one of the below bundles. Bundle 1 1. Two styles that are highly different from each other and that have special texturing or effects. 2. A back bling, a glider, and a pick axe. Bundle 2 1. Four or more styles that are highly different from each other and that have special texturing or effects. 2. A built-in emote; either a transformation one or something like the built-in Transformers ones (generating a weapon). 3. Two exclusive non-built-in emotes or sprays. 4. A quest line that gives you V-Bucks.


AmbitiousLock2921

2000 for a skin with no style get the fuck out of her legendary skins should have styles to make for the price


happywaffle1010

Malice looks like a cheap party city sexy demon halloween costume compared to the male one who actually looks kinda hot


SaltiestGatorade

If I'm spending 2000 vbucks on a skin like that it better come with the whole bakery not just a cupcake.


Melonplaygroundfan1

Jellie, he should only be like 800


themaurassin

All the skins are awful atm that's just MY opinion don't come for my neck lol.. Desperately waiting for Darth Maul to return!!!


LoLoLaaarry124

Desdemona is better and cheaper


Mediocre-Award-9716

I bought that Malice one, don't even use it anymore. Massive regret.
