No, really.
Even the promotion name, Storm the Dungeons, is a play on words of the event.

History FTW. I too was thinking 1789 and was trying to remember what happened that year. Was having a brain fart moment and had to Google the year to find Bastille Day.

The play on words gave it away to me. How do I remember this from High School French class? No idea, that was over a decade ago. Funny how the mind works.

I think I determined it was 138 TP per dollar with the "Double Bonus" on the $50. (6900/50 = 138)
It's 121.8 TP per dollar with this deal at the "$50" mark. (5000/41.05 = 121.8)
Though it's not a straight compare since the price points are different.

The fact it starts on July 14 is a pretty big giveaway.

I haven't seen an expiration date for discount codes, so I'm going to be writing this down on a post-it and waiting for the next double-bonus point (or better) event and trying this coupon at that time.

Or they're trying to cater to their European player base.

Took me a min at first to figure out Bastille day.
If your ever in philadelphia on Bastille day I suggest you check out the show they do at eastern state penitentiary. Lots of fun getting tastycakes thrown off the walls at you. You would be surprised at how much force such a light and tasty treat can strike with a 30 foot drop.

My grandmama taught me that anything under 40% off isn't a discount; moving on.
