It may not be gone but it has certainly been curtailed.
My (obvious) theory is that when Pix releases new Whale food, they force the rich, math-challenged folks to acquire new toys at a premium and upgrade them at full price. To date, every Walletfinder you see out there has been upgraded at full price. Big fat “duh” to the rich guys out there.
So what I’m doing is I’ll upgrade a few levels at full price, a couple/few at 25% discount and then I just let stuff sit and wait for 40%.

I mean, I got it yesterday. Leveled a couple of Hels to the mid-MK2s and then boosted a Techno Scorpion from L1 to L8.

few and far between. But since most of my in use stuff is leveled, I just upgrade second sets of stuff I like. Hell, I am sitting on 2.25 billion silver, 25k plat, and well gold is useless so. Drone and pilot currency is also enough for a few leveled upgrades but I am holding out for gear I want, not meta crap, I only upgrade tried and true stuff that's been put through the wash cycle a few times. I still run a set of EMGs on an arachnid and my Weyland in my main. I know what will happen, I will say what the hell, upgrade a titan, and THEN they unleash a spider titan. Nope, same with UE invader. For a decent price I MAY buy it if it ever shows up for sale. Til then, I am just grinding, collecting, slow upgrades, and be the ever so lovable PITA I can be.

Which probably means Pixonic don't think you need to be baited/bribed again just yet.

p.s. I have noticed that there are now Titan 30% off days, an improvement on the 25% but not as good as the rare 40%ers. I only see the 25% off dueing the Titan leadership board thing.

I do still get them, had one end yesterday as well.
The useless events that pixonic have implemented like 10% honour to DSC bots or black market chest 1.2 multipliers are annoying fluffers that stop the "good events" from appearing. Typical response from them to take something semi decent and make it 「dookie」tier.
I just save gold/silver so when it does hit, I can level up all the items that will be nerfed a few weeks later ð

30 percent titan discount is something I have never gotten ever. But in the two months that I have been back at this game I have never had a 40 percent robot discount. However, I am probably just unlucky.

They're not "fluffers", rather they're "fillers" to make you think that you keep getting worthwhile events. This is common amongst games.
And the whole "You won't get this offer again" is classic scamming 101 - create a false sense of urgency (Pixonic can make any offer at any time, whenever they want.)

Like boosters and several other mechanics such as black market id say ive noticed no change.
I still get 2.0 multiplyer twice per cycle.
I get 25 and 40 cost reductions quite regularly.... I will say i seem to get them when i have more than 100 mil silver avail.... But tbh i feel there is no difference.
The reduction in extermination rewards kinda sucked but tbh i never took full advantage usually did first two rounds ...by then i was bored.
Id say that while it is possible to grind out some rewards and get an occasional good item...the pace of the power creep really mitigates how much you can improve your hanger overall. Very much a pay to win game.

I do know that offers are not the same for everyone.
I _think_ it depends on your usage. If you're using the 25% discounts, then you may see 40% less often. (if ever)
I did get a 40% last week, after saving silver for several weeks and not upgrading anything. Hold out and don't upgrade anything for a while. See what happens.

Thanks all for the ideas. I’ll stop using the 25% deals for good.

p.s. maybe the 40% off discount is reserved for F2P  |

I’ve gone back to low spender mode which means I now require a perfect storm of 40% off, a LB challenge I want, and enough upgradable items to max the LB benefits (also preferably with a day of VIP). My last round was deep discount RedPads at the end of 9.7 for some electrozappers, then I waited…and waited…and waited. Five or six weeks later and I pounced on upgrades and scored a “free” UE Igniter. Meh, I have plenty of toys to keep me well into top 3 even with ancient Titan gear and no new bots, lol.
It might be a while before that all comes together again. So far, the new content just isn’t calling to me but when it does I’ll be ready, oh yes, I will be ready!

40% off is back today, had 30% off titans again yesterday. Oh, 40% off came with 2* upgrade rush today which is kinda nice. would be better if I had premium. Literally pointless ones today. 「whiskey tango foxtrot」 Don't be silly. Pixonic release good discounts when people are motivated - like today: leadership board points for upgrading things. It's the same logic that sees 2* for superchest for dominator. The "discounts" inbetween those timed with the leadership boards are essentially fillers (using their current logic.) |

I got 20% off the other day. First time I've seen a robot upgrade discount in 3 weeks. So I just gave up waiting and leveled this.  |
