Highlight
Promo Beginner pack has the best value. If you are only willing to spend a little bit, this is the one to buy.
Some of the packs have items that are not cannot be bought with Jade so those are base on personal judgment.
Ultimately, what to buy depend much on personal preference and need. The analysis below is merely a guide.
Willing to pay a little?
Much of this website has been geared towards F2P but life is usually much easier if you are willing to pay. In game or in real life lol.
I think paying even just a little bit is a great way to support the game. Especially when some packs cost only a small amount but have quite high in-game value.
Here I am trying to analysis the current packs on sale in Onmyoji.
Game Economics
The main currency in this game has always been Jades. With Jades, players can exchange Coins, AP, etc. If I remembered correctly, S-Jade was introduced before of some Chinese Law governing online gaming.
There are quite a few packs on sale in the game for a various amount of S-Jade. With different items in the pack, it is hard to immediately see the value of the pack.
In the analysis below, I have broken down the pack into Jade Equivalents (Jade Eq.). Essentially, this means roughly how many Jades does it cost to buy the same items in the General Store. By doing so, I can compare their Jade/S-Jade value and, of course, the higher the number the better.
In addition, there are some personal preferences in the calculation. For example, Exp Boost Pack has no Jades but I like the 100% Exp Up, which can stack with 50% Exp Up for extra experience. This is a good pack for upgrading fodder and get your first G6 DPS faster.
