“Did anyone else notice that the accessories are discounted by 50% if you want to buy them outright?”

Good catch.

I’m thinking this is so that people can’t arbitrage (i.e. take advantage of pricing discrepancies) the accessories purchases. This goes hand in hand with the tokens to gems exchange ratio of 2:1 for this new event.

In the Seek & Destroy event, you could buy the three new accessories for 1,200 tokens (or 400 gems at a 3:1 ratio) each in the token exchange, but it cost you 800 gems to buy them from the barracks.

In this new event, the 50% discount makes the gem cost of buying from the barracks equal to the gem cost of exchanging gems for token in the token exchange.
