Anyone using the fireworks?

[Mr. Bufferlow]

I bought way too many...took me awhile to figure out they are unlimited. +200

I shot off a few the day they came out. Im not wasting quicksilver on them. I think it was cheap.

Agree, they are pretty weak IMO. I thought they would work like the other Com Event Swag and ended up buying a lot more than I intended. Fortunately, I still have almost 10,000 quicksilver so no worries.

i dont have that much, I didn't have a character at the beginning that was strong enough to do some of them, and a couple of them I just turned and left cos the comm balls. I couldn't see where I was supposed to go, so I said EF this, This last community event had SO MUCH quicksilver tho -- I have a bit left over.

I wonder if I can sell them back? Just occurred to me that most of the transaction screens have a buy and sell mode.

hey, good idea

Definitely one of the most pointless creations by HG to buy IMO.

I think they're a waste of Quicksilver. I bought 2 just to check them out. 1 time use only, not that impressive an effect.
Instead of selling different one-off colors, sell different types of effects.
Honestly I'd be okay if they were more expensive but were a recipe you could build from materials. 10 ferrite dust, 10 phosphorus, 20 carbon or 10 condensed carbon and for color, 20 gold, silver, copper, indium, cadmium, or emeril (10 if activated is used). 20 chromatic metal gives random colors.
Players who do multiplay could create shows for one another.

[Mr. Bufferlow]

I tend to agree, but essentially the com event items are intendeed to be un-necessary extra items you can choose to accept. If they break that wall, you have the non-participants throwing fits. There are some folks who are completely negative toward the Com Events even being a part of the game.

They're definitely not unlimited!

They may have changed things. When they first came out you could buy as much as your quicksilver allowed. I made that mistake thinking it would stop at some point but I ended up with a lifetime supply before I realized my error.

I had a whole storage cube devoted to my explosive amount of fireworks.

I've had a few fireworks parties at my bases every now and then. Maybe I should plan another one.

Holy good night - that’s one hell of a necro.

You get +++ points for the date but —— for the topic, net is a wash. 0 necro points

[frazzled]

Almost never. Used a few when they came out. Sometimes when I get them as rewards.

The only time I was tempted was at the end of the first couple of expeditions. Most multiplayer moments I ever had were then in the Nexus as we celebrated. I WOULD have used fireworks then, but they can't be planted in the Nexus. So the one time a really would have liked them, I couldn't.

I got some as a reward, my Grand-kids have fun with them. (They have a creative game) They do have a nice base by the ocean I put together. So they are just fun. Wonder if they could be used as a flare in a group setting? VR
