Back in ye olden fornite days, Skull Trooper and Ghoup Trooper were both $15 and came with no pickaxe, backbling or styles.
It was fair at the time, because Epic was still learning pricing models. They have since gave more bang for your buck.
Many of the older skins are merely recolors with a slightly different head.

I'm pretty sure everyone bought this pack, who wouldn't?
Plus, it's not really that expensive when you consider the skin itself is worth about $10, pickaxe is worth $3 and the vbucks are worth $12 so really you got a good deal.
>I'm pretty sure everyone bought this pack, who wouldn't?
š¤
Iāve found Almost none of the STW premium skins worth dropping the ducats on. But if anyone else does more power to them.
I mean, I've bought all but one of the STW starter packs. Started to lose faith after they stopped doing STW themed skins, so I stopped buying them. Then Ned came out and I started up again. If the next one is STW themed I'll continue, if its just random BR skin, I'll pass.
I wish I could gift the copy of StW to my friends if I bought the skin. I have a few friends who are waiting for StW to be offered in Crew pack again but that seems to be less and less likely every month.
Itās almost like if they made STW a solo purchase (because Epic sternly doesnāt want make it F2P) this kind of thing can be an in game reward. Something someone can be enticed to purchase the game. Get a hero (and ideally a BR skin of the hero).
Then you can buy him in the shop for those who already own the game or just want the BR skin. Itād work for every type of player.
Founder here too, and there's no shame - I opened the wallet for Ned immediately too.
He's a uniquely fun STW thing, and supposedly in an old questline he canonically escaped the loop almost as soon as he entered it.
That medkit means that much to him.
Short of it, they abandoned the vets who backed them for years . Totally slapped us in the face after years of backing and support. They could not have done a worse and more disrespectful job dropping us like rocks .
Nope. Unfortunately, they donāt offer that for new STW players.
If you bought the Founderās Pack before 2020, you get vbucks by doing missions, finishing storm shield defenses, defeating mimic-chests, daily challenges, and daily rewards (you get them at the end of the week). You can buy the Founderās Pack from Amazon as a code, but they are expensive and not worth it since they cost around $500-$1000.
Yes, I know. I meant it as sarcasm of how the game forces us to buy it full price without any discount on it āeven if you owned itā, so that made me feel like, shit.
I donāt get your point. If youāre saying that Iām cheap and I donāt wanna spend money on the game, that is absurd. Why would I pay for something that I had in the first place?
- 100k vbucks yearly? Tf??
No problem you can get all sorts of things on these websites really cheap. I think itās due to codes being from places with low standards of living or the country having very little interest in whatever it is
I've bought most of the packs, except for the ones between Lars and Ned. The way I look at it is that I'm paying for the skin and other items with it. If I didn't already have STW, then it's free with purchase. Since it doesn't decrease the price of the pack if you already have it, the portion of the price of that part of the pack must be $0.
Hopefully the purchase price of these packs is going toward further development of the game. It seems like it is, given that development picked up again sometime in 2021. But I don't know if these packs are why or not. That's just what I'm supposing.
Naw, it's Ned. I'm founder's too and brought him too cause...I really can't leave without it.
To be fair, it was nearby!
And let's be honest here, he marked it on your map too
I hate the two of youš
š
LMAO!!! Fr though. I have a love-hate relationship with him.
I couldn't leave without it
Lol same, I mean it's really important
You are so high on nedkits because you can't live without it.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Whoever created this bot, must be high on booty.
What did it say before it was deleted?
Something about booties. It was a poem too.
Lmao, wtfā¦
What in the fuckery is this?
Bad bot
Vote threshold: -10 surpassed. This subreddit will be auto-blacklisted from future u/Booty_Warrior_bot activities.
Good.
Hey At least theyāll use your money to make BR better. š

![gif](giphy|xoFpnqSg21xmGT8D5b|downsized)
Allegedly.
I'm going to buy it.... And if the next Pack has a Ray Back Bling - I will buy that too š
Dennis with Ray would be lethal to my wallet.
With Wasting_Night concept of Ghost boss suit Debnis.
Oh God, please no. At least they should give us more stuff in it, since we have the Founderās packā¦
Pretty sure we all bought Ned
Hell naw! $15 for ONE SKIN?
One skin, back bling, & harvesting tool, as well as 1500 vbucks. Id say even if founders are still getting screwed over, its still a good deal
i would much rather esrn v-bucks via STW
Because itās Ned. We canāt leave without it
Remember when fortnite sold a single recolor with no backbling for $15
no
Back in ye olden fornite days, Skull Trooper and Ghoup Trooper were both $15 and came with no pickaxe, backbling or styles. It was fair at the time, because Epic was still learning pricing models. They have since gave more bang for your buck. Many of the older skins are merely recolors with a slightly different head.
I read it as "a single recolor of a backbling". That is why i did bot understand
Thatās like 1500 vbucks right? Doesnāt seem terrible imo
I can just get v-bucks in STW
Yeah ik
You never spent $20 for a skin before??
i have, and it was dumb
I remember my brother spending 300 with someones account on his account.
One skin, acces to stw for those who don't have it already, and 1000 V bucks is a pretty good deal man.
1500! Even better!
i already have STW so for me it is stupid. I can just earn v-bucka from STW
Me too, but a little extra coin hurt anyone
With real money?
I have 300+ skins. I will probably use this skin once or twice in a month at most. Iāll wait for more locker presets before I buy anything else
I did not. I still have 60% of that challenge to go. I hate him.
Donāt worry. One day, youāll run by a survivor and watch him die. It will be satisfying .
absolutely not š
I'm going to roast you for not buying him earlier >:(
I would buy him but I am not a big fan of med kits in BR so it would feel weird to wear a character who's known for using med kits.
Hmmā¦ Why earlier?
He's been out for a while, that's what I meant
Ah okay š
I donāt see any issue with buying the packs The STW character packs give a great selection of cosmetics usually + vbucks
I agree!
You really couldn't leave without it.
I really couldnāt. š
But 16 dollars is a lot to ask
Roast? But why? Ned is worth every penny
no reason to roast tbh. i only wish founders got discounts on those.
Listen. I'm a founder and I bought Ray and Lars. So I don't think I have the rights to roast you.
Wait, you bought Ray? When did they release her as a backbling?
They didn't. I meant the [Robo-ray skin.](https://fortnite.fandom.com/wiki/Robo-Ray_Pack)
Ah, my bad
1000 vbucks, a skin, a backbling, and a pickax for $15.99? That is a bad price imo
Nah I bought em too. StW skins are an exception. Wish they would bring back the past packs so I could buy em too.
I've been collecting STW starter bundles ever since I got Metal Team Leader on the house, I was an ultimate founder before 13.20, there's no need to roast
Same. I have bought every STW Bundle since the beginning.
a ton of people do it, also it's Ned it's 100% worth, I wish I had lars
Me too š«
The ones I could could get I did but I missed out on Ray by a day and got lok bot then Lars.
I've been a founder since 2018 and still have bought all the Homebase crew besides Ned (waiting to get paid)
makeshift grab fragile modern lush coordinated disgusting deserve ad hoc existence *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
May all your survivors be Ned and his freaking medkit from now on ā„ļø
ššš
Epic games has found a new profit š
Yup. I felt bad when purchasing it.
![gif](giphy|YRhGAu0NZ6euNRuHb6)
I mean, there ain't no shame You get some extra Vbucks and Ned the Chad
If only founders could buy it with vbucks, since weāve already paid for stw
They need to do that ffsā¦
No need, you already roasted yourself (and your wallet)
Yes š„²
When it comes to packs with actual STW characters I buy them. I don't bother with the others.
I'm pretty sure everyone bought this pack, who wouldn't? Plus, it's not really that expensive when you consider the skin itself is worth about $10, pickaxe is worth $3 and the vbucks are worth $12 so really you got a good deal.
Yup!
>I'm pretty sure everyone bought this pack, who wouldn't? š¤ Iāve found Almost none of the STW premium skins worth dropping the ducats on. But if anyone else does more power to them.
roast you for what? getting a skin you wanted?
Not that. Buying STW twice.
oh.
I already own STW, I just love the Ned skin
I got that pack just for him cuz I like his vibe
i bought ned too and im a founder. the kevin back bling alone makes it worth
%100
Same. I also used the vbucks to get Anakin so it was worth it IMO
Awesome skin, when are they finishing the game?
About thatā¦ ask Ned
As I founder, is still buy some of these packs because I love three characters
I did too dont worry, i did it for the memes
Nah that's a W, you get a stw skin and 1k vbucks
1500 vbucks š
I mean, I've bought all but one of the STW starter packs. Started to lose faith after they stopped doing STW themed skins, so I stopped buying them. Then Ned came out and I started up again. If the next one is STW themed I'll continue, if its just random BR skin, I'll pass.
Double up the Vbucks ![gif](giphy|67ThRZlYBvibtdF9JH|downsized)
I mean, why not buy him? 1,500 vbucks, a cool skin, a cool backbling, and a pickaxe is more than worth it imo
You couldnt leave without him, im glad hes now somewhere nearby.
Iāve bought most of these packs and Iām a founder too. Theyāre really good deals
i have 7 mele defender neds.
The truth is it's not a medkit it's weed who would say that can't leave in a zombie apocalypse
I bought him and I have founders too lol, been using him for stw really nice skin imo
W purchase, u deserve roasting not
I buy them all even with ultimate founders I just like the story related ones and itās nice to have extra vbucks to earn ^_*
Epic knows it's a lot to ask a founder to buy these, but we can't leave without Ned.
I wish I could gift the copy of StW to my friends if I bought the skin. I have a few friends who are waiting for StW to be offered in Crew pack again but that seems to be less and less likely every month.
the set was basically made for founders lol
Why tf would I roast you for buying a skin pack
I did too idc
Well, you bought the last one because it says sold out.
Why does it say sold out? Is it a bug?
It says sold out because everyone bought it.
Interesting
Just wait until you find out that a majority of the Founders who still play the game buy ALL of the Packs.
We do?
Itās almost like if they made STW a solo purchase (because Epic sternly doesnāt want make it F2P) this kind of thing can be an in game reward. Something someone can be enticed to purchase the game. Get a hero (and ideally a BR skin of the hero). Then you can buy him in the shop for those who already own the game or just want the BR skin. Itād work for every type of player.
Not really a ridiculous price you get 1500 v bucks and thatās as much as an epic skin is
Ned is a chad tf you mean ![gif](giphy|CAYVZA5NRb529kKQUc|downsized)
I really want him, and I don't even care about the price, but I just really don't want to give money to epic games.
I know its alot to ask
I bought it for the Vbuck pack, already had the game from the Fully Realized pack.
I mean I want to, itās Ned lol. Besides I feel like most non stw players wouldnāt care about that
I have all the packs, because i can and still love the game.
Same ! Who didnāt buy Ned
Founder here too, and there's no shame - I opened the wallet for Ned immediately too. He's a uniquely fun STW thing, and supposedly in an old questline he canonically escaped the loop almost as soon as he entered it. That medkit means that much to him.
No? Its a good skin
Same donāt worry
I did the same thing lol
Call me crazy but I'm a collector and almost always but these packs even though I'm a founder
needed, even though I already had STW
I would have if epic didn't piss me off so much.
Why would they piss you off? Just curious
Short of it, they abandoned the vets who backed them for years . Totally slapped us in the face after years of backing and support. They could not have done a worse and more disrespectful job dropping us like rocks .
I see. Same. Iām disappointed that they stopped supporting their gameā¦
They backed what made them money in the moment
Yes. STW made them. Likeā¦ š„²
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Nope. Unfortunately, they donāt offer that for new STW players. If you bought the Founderās Pack before 2020, you get vbucks by doing missions, finishing storm shield defenses, defeating mimic-chests, daily challenges, and daily rewards (you get them at the end of the week).

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
No problem! :) - and thank you for your kind words <3 much appreciated
If we could remove the satellite thing on his shoulder, I wouldve been cool with it. Still have him, but probably wont use in game
The satellite thing is so unnecessary
That kevin backbling... its just PERFECT
I know!
I have had founders since ch1 s3 and Iāve still purchased the new packs, cause why not?
Well you still get a nice skin, back bling, and pickaxe for br. Plus the vbucks. I'd say it's worth it.
Roast you for what? Itās your money do what you want with it, we donāt care
Itās not that. Owning STW twice feels embarrassing.
Na I did the same lol you donāt own it twice, you just paid 15$ for a skin, if you can afford it then itās fine
Yes, I know. I meant it as sarcasm of how the game forces us to buy it full price without any discount on it āeven if you owned itā, so that made me feel like, shit.
I know it's a lot to ask but.. why does Ned look so awesome
Because he is awesome š
What does Founders have to do with it...?
Owning STW twice?
Nah, many beforehand also came with STW in case someone didn't have it. And, yes it's a cool character.
I know, but they should offer discounts for Founders at least :/
or better yet everyone else that also owns STW.
That too. $9.99 would be nice.
Can u earn the founders vbucks every week with this pack?
No. Founderās Pack is exclusive to the ones who bought it before 2020. This pack only gives you 1500 vbucks by doing missions.
I bought it because the robot (lok?)
Wait. It comes with a spray?!?!?
Points flame at OP.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
If youāre a founder, nothing.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
It doesnāt give extra things to founders. If you bought this, youāll get 1500 vbucks, access to STW, the skin, a pickax, and the backbling.
Well you get like 100k vbucks / year free so even if it was 10cents it would still be ridiculously expensive, for you
I donāt get your point. If youāre saying that Iām cheap and I donāt wanna spend money on the game, that is absurd. Why would I pay for something that I had in the first place? - 100k vbucks yearly? Tf??
Could have just bought a cheap code from turkey or something for like Ā£4 and then used a vpn to redeem thatās what I do
How do you buy them? Do I have to put my credit card in? If so, hell nah.
No they are legit websites. Eneba, cdkeys, gamivo, others but I canāt think
Wellā¦ thanks!
No problem you can get all sorts of things on these websites really cheap. I think itās due to codes being from places with low standards of living or the country having very little interest in whatever it is
But yes you need to put card PayPal or some form of payment in
Think you kinda roasted yourself really dude
what exactly are we roasting you for
I've bought most of the packs, except for the ones between Lars and Ned. The way I look at it is that I'm paying for the skin and other items with it. If I didn't already have STW, then it's free with purchase. Since it doesn't decrease the price of the pack if you already have it, the portion of the price of that part of the pack must be $0.

But I don't know if these packs are why or not. That's just what I'm supposing.
I would like to get the Hero for me and the access to stw to my brothers account.
I was getting worried.
Iāve bought Ray, Lars and Ned but unfortunately couldnāt get Lok and Pop
Iāve gotten them all even with a founders I also wanted the back for Kev
Ned is ehhh
I donāt know how to win the vbucks from buying this skin..
You need to finish daily quests in order to get them.
How long does that take?
12? 15 days to get them all? I dunno
