Pigs annoy me. They annoy me because they don’t make cents (badum bum bum).

There are a lot of CI sets that are woefully overpriced or otherwise don’t make sense to complete - my irritation with pigs is that they are a standard talisman and even the “cheap” sets are questionable. As far as coins go, they are the oxymoron of CI sets.

The cheapest one I see costs two clips to complete. That’s 1800 coins, putting aside the reagent cost. If you use this pig on lower level rooms, you will lose coins rather than earn them. You can turn a profit on the higher level rooms, but assuming you diligently play 45 games in 90 minutes, you’re unlikely to double that 1800 cost unless you stack accountant bonuses. If you do hit that 1800 mark, all you’ve done is collect the cost of the next pig set.

And it just gets worse from there. Looks like the most expensive pig set is over 40k coins to complete.

If you use “bonus” fixers on pigs (e.g., magisterium, apprentice chest, etc.), then you do make a coin profit - but why waste those limited, premium fixers on pigs?

Pigs. Ugh. End rant.

(Yes, for friends, if you want pig CI sets, I have them for you. Lots and lots of them.)
