I've actually stopped trying Blade. The Christmas "event" was the end of trying and buying for me! I'll auto-farm for the troops and pick up talisman packs when they're available but I'm done with store-bought souls... it's waste of Trooper points and Ironite these days! Skill shards and SoT is where my investments will be going from now on. The random rare soul will do for my dose of disappointment from LotB!
