It takes around 100 USD on average to buy a Prestige skin with the current system.

On average, you'll earn around 4.28 Mythic Essences per Ancient Spark, assuming you haven't gotten all the A-tier rewards and the exalted skin.

That translates to approximately 35 Ancient Sparks to hit 150 ME, and approximately 14k RP/100 USD.

But if you're a whale that has all the A-tier and S-tier items, you can expect 9.13 ME per roll, this cuts the price down by over half, what a deal!

Why should they even bother with 1350 RP skins when they can sell the same thing for 5 to 10 times the price?
