Special personal trainers - is it worth the price?

I've never used personal trainers on my players before, mainly because they develop grey skills equally with the white ones and aren't exactly cheap. However these reduced prices actually look pretty nice to me.

For example, I would get my 24 y/o striker from 112% to 120% with 66T. Green packs cost roughly one token per unit. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't get him anywhere near +8% (a.k.a. 120 skill increases) with 66 green packs. I've never done empirical testing on how fast players generally gain while training (I'm sure some people here have :D ), so I'm consulting you:

Do you think that these special trainer prices are cheap for players who aren't young and quick to gain anymore?

No, certainly not worth it. It is a total waste.

Any of my players over 100% only get a 4% increase for 60 tokens using the personal trainer.
You seem to be getting a better deal than me.
I've never bothered with them anyway though, 66 greens is only a few days vids, better doing it that way.

I would only do it on my legend 29+ player if they would offer me 8-10 tokens for 1% of rating.
Otherwise it would be a waste.

Are you sure it is only 66T, I think it must be much more.

One of the worst deals ingame, better buy rests and train these %

I just checked how personal trainer works.

It is 48T for 4% quallity if player is 5*.
It is 60T for 4% quallity if player is 6*.
It is 80T for 4% quallity if player is 7*.
etc...

So, it is 120T (not 66T for sure) for those 8% (112%-120%).

Interesting, you guys don't have the same offer, it seems. It's been up for a couple of days and ends tomorrow. The offer is to use special trainers to get my six star players to seven with reduced prices.

Other examples:
118 to 120, 14T
109 to 120, 91T
100 to 120, 176T

Maybe a regional thing? (I'm from Northern Europe) Or targeted to certain managers by some other criteria?

To use 14t for 2% is a little much in my opinion.

I am from Western Europe but I have no offers that I can views, I won’t be using it anyway but still, none for me, it could be available in certain regions and not in others.

Yeah I think it might be, I don’t have it either but it don’t want it to be honest.

Actually used it this time because it's cheap compared to power training with rest packs. I thought it would boost all skills equally as the regular personal trainer does. Now when I look at the player, it actually boosted the grey skills twice as much as the white ones. 8% for greys and 4% for whites in this case, lol. :eek: Take this into consideration if you're planning to use one. :p

You think its cheap compared to green packs? It isn't and it would be even cheaper to raise grey skills more.

The special trainer cost 46T to get the 25 y/o player from 114% to 120%, as you can check from the pic. Which happens to be exactly the price as buying 50 greens. If I hadn't bought the trainer, I would've definitely bought greens to since I had tokens to spare and no need to buy more players this season.

6% AvQ upgrade requires 90 single skill upgrades (the player was low 114, I think there was about 86-88 left). So the player would have to gain about 1,8 skills for every green pack spent, which wouldn't be achievable with a 25 y/o player.

My intention was to get the player to seven stars soon anyway and since it took less resources now, I can spend greens more on my younger, quicker training players. The fact that the trainer boosted grey skills more is the only thing that makes me think whether this was a poor investment.

On sunday I was training my 25 year old AMC from 114 to 141 %, so 27% improved and I used 180 green packs. This is roughly 6,7 packs per overall % or 2,2 skills for every green how you would say. And I could choose the skills that should be improved. I don't know your particular player, but in my opinion these types of deals are never worth it. Maybe for players 26+...

Okay, I haven't done counting on how fast they gain in relation to greens used so might have been wrong. Then again, I never considered the player a very fast trainer and would've had to train mostly the low-end skills.

Had this deal improved all the skills equally, it would've been quite fair in my opinion, but now I don't think I'm going to do that again.
