Can I just buy the Skins without Spinning the Wheels

Hello I’m new to this section on the forum.

I think I’m over spending on aircraft skins and not getting what I wanted, due to these chests have a random wheel on where it lands on it’s always the tanks and the crap stuff I don’t want. But I did managed to get 2 skins for my aircraft in the GB Tech Tree but spending on these chests which are 99 golden eagles per chest and 599 golden eagles to open them, still no luck on this wheel spin.

I have spent alot of money on this game by grinding, ordering crews, buying boosters, premium aircraft and I’m trying to get the skins for all the aircraft I have unlocked, that I’m also trying to get the skins for my helicopters and bombers. I wish I can just buy the skins for 559 golden eagles instead of spinning the wheel. Buying 2x 7000+1000 Golden Eagles is not a problem but getting the skins is when they are in chests. The skins I’m looking for aren’t not available in Customization but can only earn them in the chests.

Fool!

You feel in the loot boxes trap,

Go to the Marketplace, usually those really colored aircraft skins are more expensive, even more if it’s historical.

It’s more “cheaper” spending GJN10 ($10) in a single skin than the same price worth in loot boxes and keys.

Hello, I’m assuming based off the “@live” you’re on a console, in which you should be able to trade in skins, as you don’t have access to Gaijin Marketplace. As for skipping the spinning you can’t entirely skip it, but you should be able to shorten the animation considerably by pressing X on PS, and A on Xbox by default.

If you go to the “Workshop” tab you should be able to turn in skins for vouchers, which should therefore allow you to select what skin you’d like in specific. (I’m trying to verify if the workshop is also on Xbox, just make 100% sure this is correct, as for PS, it is)

Hope this helps!

Thanks, the other guy wasn’t helpful.

Glad I could help, hopefully you’re able to get the skins you want now!

Thanks

Now that is interesting, the workshop tab always confused the hell out of me

It’s very hard to understand the layout I had to make another account in order to access it, but its the trading and money that I don’t get. Where it says Sell and Buy I don’t understand, it just want to buy skins not do business.

You won’t get those skin on your Xbox account anyway, it’s physically not possible. You would have to get an account transfer from Xbox to PC, which Gaijin is not doing at the moment.

The change is also permanent and you would not be able to play on Xbox anymore if you did go through with that.

I strongly suggest you do not use a second account because it breaks the rules and could get you suspended.

Yeah layout is confusing.

The site allows 2 accounts, one is Live the other is Market and both work fine also with additional sign links from other platforms. I did manage to get 2x skin via console for the Westland Wasp with the HMS Endurance Skin and the Winter White for the Ju-288-C. By having luck with the wheel I’m still hoping to get more skins for my British Aircraft.
