I have never played Total Mayhem before and I love it and hate it at the same time. I have fun playing with Ana and Winston but I would like to play with other heroes, what other heroes are good in this mode?

Sombra is great if you really want to be the no fun police. Hacking and EMPing away abilities is a godsend here.I have never played Total Mayhem before and I love it and hate it at the same time.

Sounds like it should be double the cost instead of triple then.The idea behind why event legendaries are 3000 coins to buy but return 200 as a dupe (the dupe return of a standard legendary) is pretty simple, because they want to make the acquisition of the legendary skins rarer and event limited while not skewing the economy they've set up between standard drops. It's the same logic as to why legendary coin drops are 500 as opposed to a full 1000 -- it's not there to give you a full legendary of your choosing as that would make the regular legendary drops worse as a result, and having a dupe give you more than a legendary coin drop would skew the reward scale there as well.
So the idea is that as far as loot boxes are concerned, a legendary pull is a legendary pull, but the ability to purchase them is there as a last ditch effort if you REALLY want something specific and have the coins for it, but it'll be at a premium as it's for a limited time for the rotational event.
I got that one too in one of mine. One of the few legendaries I don't have yet, but still hurt nonetheless :/got the sun-ra zenyatta in my event loot box lelelelel
Lmao. Brother got 100 boxes and got 3 Lucio skins in a row. Dude is devastated. Lucio 4 times, Zarya 3 times, Symetra twice, and the rest were regular legends. Shouldn't of paid to gamble on that.
There really should be logic in the loot boxes that prevent dupes of legendary items. Every time i've gotten event boxes, I always get dupes of the same few skins, while others never show up.
I think it's closer to this: https://youtu.be/liR4yuAjMCcIf the Soldier dance is a reference to that mining video, it's done really badly. I thought it was just some bad Dad dancing.
As they have more and more of this timed events, the chance of getting the latest skins gets lower and lower. Not going to fall into that trap. Will keep playing at my pace and accumulate gold and buy 1-2 items per event I really want.
"You can earn free loot boxes by playing Arcade matches."
Nope....
I'd rather self-mutilate myself than to go through this shit any more. Fuck Arcade. The Uprising event was the only tolerable mode ever cause each match was a guaranteed win, the rest of this is a frustrating piece of time waste. 5 matches. 5 losses. Fuck this.
Play Mystery Heroes if you're not good enough to win in 3v3 and 1v1
whew level up box

Mystery Heroes is one massive RNG roll though.
That Lucio skin is so good.whew level up box

I've played OW since the closed beta and I never opened a box w/ 2 legendaries.

I don't know how ya'll can buy loot boxes. It's such a rip off. The last ten free boxes I opened had jack shit in them so I can't imagine paying for that.
It's the good ol' gacha trap, you slowly become accustomed to it and before you know it you're spending hundreds of dollars every new "event" for that new shiny.
It's kinda amazing to see how Blizzard trained their player base to buy into it.
No its not. I played over 20 matches yesterday and would get 200 xp per match. 600 xp on matches that lasted longer than usual.
Has someone worked out the math on how the odds are made for event loot boxes? Like if you get a blue result, it randomly selects from the pool of blue items (which includes the event stuff) or there's a slight bias in picking event items from the pool.
I also can't tell if I'm getting more duplicates more often because of changed drop rates or just because of my owning of items obviously increases the chance of something being a duplicate
Mei is an absolute inmortal annoying beast in Total mayhem. Winston is incredible too. Tracer is bullshit as she has always been.
Following these threads is always both fascinating and scary. People basically frustrated that skins seem to have become rarer, while at the same time more and more seem to straight up buy 100 boxes.
Makes you wonder how far Blizzard is gonna push this.
It'll only become worse as long as the player base is okay with it, heck it's always being defended with either "it's only cosmetic" and "these whales keep the game alive for me". Very little regard towards the predatory nature of gacha mechanics.
I'm fine with the way they are handling loot boxes. Come at me.

I actually LIKE the way they handle it. I like the thrill of the chase and looking forward to the next set of time limited shit. It makes my actively happy.
Suck it haters.
Suggestion: Less dupes and more dupe currency.
Suck it lovers.
Ugh fine, as long as it's not too much cause I sustain myself on the salt generated by these events and I don't wanna have to go back to DOTA 2 for my necessary salt intakeSuggestion: Less dupes and more dupe currency.

Lmao I didn't just discover it I've been knee deep in it since Diablo II.Congratulations, you have both discovered the joy of gambling. Blizzard will be happy with your patronage.
People's outrage over the "gambling" involved in getting free cosmetic items for playing an enjoyable videogame is mystifying to me.
I agree that loot boxes should not be pushed on kids, but c'mon. On a list of the videogame industry's sins, this doesn't crack a top thirty.
Still no event Legendary from leveling up. Fucking hell.
