Ambush at Zana costs 12 chaos? For 4 strong boxes??

I did this once and I doubt I will ever do it again. I don't know how 4 strong boxes could possibly be worth 12 chaos unless your absurdly lucky getting the best ones. Otherwise your probably getting mostly regular strong boxes which is nothing more than a couple extra rares.

Buyer beware.

Well, what if you get Cartoboxes in Shiphyard? Then it's worth it, doesn't it?

Imagine if they added something that was "worth it". What would people be doing other than that? Right. Nothing. That's all they would do.

IF and ONLY IF you get a carto box is it remotely worth 12c. My friend spent 4ex~ (which is more than I have in my entire stash) on zana's boxes and never found 1 carto thus far in the league.

But its not even 12c if you get the cartos.

Its 12c + however many chaos/currency you spent crafting the boxes.

TBH, I don't know if these should be priced around the highest possible outcome. Average players will almost NEVER use any of the special zana mods. They are all waaay expensive, and rich players don't give a damn about the prices anyway.

If they removed the carto boxes from being added via zana, and gutted the price down to like 2 chaos, then it might be used a bit more.

Like... ALL of these zana mods are Waaaaay expensive.

Anarcy 8 chaos? Should be 4 at most.
Onslaught? 8 chaos, seriously? Should be like 2 alchs or a chaos at most.
Domination... 10chaos ?!!? Should be like 1 chaos.
Rampage should be like 1 fuse at most...
Beyond being 12c? I'd say this one should be like... 6 chaos.
Nemesis... for 1 exalt, I have no comment at all for this.
Torment and bloodlines being 3 exalts each is just... I don't even know what to say.

Does it always spawn 4 boxes ?

The cost is obviously balanced around (full) groups :)

The prices are perfectly balanced...

It also gives you the ability to drop/chance a league exclusive unique.
It's RNG gamble like everything in this game. If you get a carto box in a 77-78 map you it probably pays for multiple ambush tries.

So making everything not worth it so no one does anything is the right thing to do?

I'm not saying you should make currency every time you use something like a zana mod, just that it's a fair gamble. If someone is going to lose a fair amount of currency 9 times out of 10 would that be considered a fair gamble or simply a bad choice?

That is the assumption I am going on yes.
