4. ✨ Optimal Opening Order for Wardrobe Unlock Items
· The order in which you open Wardrobe Unlock items is very important. Following this sequence is most efficient:
· 1. Weapon Unlocks: Since weapon skins are the most numerous in the game, use weapon unlocks first to reduce the weapon skin pool.
· 2. Dye Unlocks: As there aren't many high-value dyes, open dye unlocks second to reduce the dye skin pool. (However, if you have very few dyes and don't buy many weekly packages, you might open general unlocks first.)
· 3. General Wardrobe Unlocks: With the weapon and dye skin pools reduced, open general unlocks to increase the chance of getting high-value skins from other categories like outfits, gliders, and minis.
· 4. Armor Unlocks: Finally, open armor unlocks. Many armor skins, including Gem Store items, are high-value, so you can expect a high return on investment.
