Halo 5 Arena Req Bundle: Is It Worth It?

Video is just for reference. So I am currently torn when faced with the decision to purchase this new req bundle that was released a few weeks back. However, does the temptation seem worth the price? Situation: I am currently caught in a bind, balancing extracurricular activities with school and soon adding in a job into the mix (replacing extracurriculars). Thus leaving me little time to spend on Xbox, and pouring that which I do into [i]"Halo: Lottery Simulator 5"[/i] in order to grind out all common to rare cosmetics so I may actually get a decent set of armor. Doing so would let me mentally take a breather and allow myself to fall behind in unlocking things in 343's monthly content drops. Pros: - Guaranteed Mk V Alpha set, which IMO looks better than 90% of the available armor - 40 additional permanent unlocks (all cosmetic, no certifications - Helps me eliminate my remaining rare unlocks Cons: - $25 that is of my own money (at this point in time) would be put towards this instead of other things, things that are far more worthy. - The Mk V Alpha set [b]is[/b] unlockable without purchase, just by grinding and a stroke of luck. - I'm spending additional money on an already purchased $60 game. TL;DR: Life is busy and I'm not sure if I want to buy a microtransaction.

  • Since its only for cosmetic stuff like armor, weapon skins, and emblems it sure takes some of the grind out. Right now I'm buying all silver packs to get rid of all the uncommon and rare stuff most of it is just emblems, armors and skins. You can if you want if you're trying to get ultra rare unlocks and above.
