The following items are on sale from December 28– January 3. Below you will find the sale listings as well as our recommendation on purchasing.
December Deals
The free samples will most likely be replaced by the new December Deals that will be going through-out the month of December. How Turbine is doing it this year is a couple items on sale over the weekend rather than a new item sale each day.

CSTM RECOMMENDATION: These are one of those convenience items that gives you a shortcut without the grind. These get a meh simply because it’s not necessary. You can get through the normal in-game methods (they are available at the skirmish vendors).

CSTM RECOMMENDATION: A Legacy Tier Upgrade will upgrade one legacy on your legendary item one tier. These items are per character and will only upgrade one legacy on one legendary item.
This is what in-game is called a Scroll of Empowerment. There are different varieties in game based on the level of your Legendary Item but they are all named similar. For example a level 75 legendary item simply needs a Scroll of Greater Empowerment. These items are available in game from skirmish camps and barter tokens if you prefer to get it via an in-game method.

The rep you get from skirmish camp is not worth the price they have. There only 1,000 rep points. To me store option is better deal when on sale.

Most people find it easier to part with on game currency than RL currency given the option.
