Someone with enough pearls to buy them is probably already capable of making q100 dolls. No one is gonna waste all those pearls on the tiny LP gain you get from going from q100 to q150.


making more sense

The LP gained from using 5 q150 straw dolls is +10k LP > than using 5 q100 straw dolls, acquired over the course of 22 hours.

At that point you might as well study the pearl lol.


maybe when its 160 then which is around 4.0x ;)

You're not getting it. People already use straw dolls. High quality ones. Which are stupidly easy to mass produce. So let's assume I'm a mid tier player and I've got an unlimited supply of q90 straw dolls. So while yes your q160 straw dolls give 12k LP each (a total of 60k LP with 5), it's a little disingenuous to say that because in reality I'm only gaining 3k LP (the difference between 3x at q90 and 4x at q160) or 15k LP with 5 dolls (which also takes 22 hours to add up).

If you ask me, I'd buy them for 5 points for one, not because they'd be hard to produce but cause its extra work for me and I have unlimited pearls access :)

On other hand I think that for some they are easy doable with quite good q already, so probably overall price should be bit lower.

Um... a pearl gives 18klp, 5 of these gives the same amount as say, a q 50 bronze steed with a much shorter study time. If you have curioflow it's clearly worth it.

Nah, it's not, for the reasons I already described. Everyone already uses straw dolls. The bump in LP you get from buying these is equal to that of a Q14 straw doll depending on the quality of the dolls you currently have.

Fair enough
