Fifth Anniversary Gift Boxes Worth it?

in TERA PC - General Discussion
Has anyone purchased any of these yet? Are you guaranteed to land at least ONE of the chance items from this page every time you open a single box?

    I've heard the RNG for the boxes of getting anything decent has been pretty low. It's usually spellbind and feedstock. It's not really worth it.

    If you look through the anniv threads one player posted on the first night that he dropped a grand and didn't get much of anything.

    They are not exactly designed to give a personal profit. Just like in other Gifting Center events, the whole point of the gift box is to actually gift them to someone else, or do a gift exchange, rather than opening them up yourself like many tend to do when they see the big jackpot of 100k emp or any other juicy jackpot.

    Unfortunately, majority of players only buy them for personal gain rather than just gifting it to friends or randoms like they are designed.

    This is just me, but i like to gift those boxes regardless of what is inside them. And if i get a gift box from someone, i will accept it regardless of what i get from it. Denying a gift is not my style, as someone went out of their way to send me that gift.

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I will stay far away from these boxes.

    Its worth it if the account cheeks and ultra plasma weapon skin is something that you want on all your toons.

    I personally would spend the on the boxes if it was chromaplasma weapon skin rather than the ugly ultra plasma.

    is it possible to get the chromaplasma account bound weapon skin instead of the ultra? @Spacecats

    I doubt the Chromaplasma will be available anytime soon as account bound. It was an almost exclusive of last year Wintera Gifting center for those who sent 15 gifts ( cant remember tho).

    IMO ultraplasma is not even that bad of a looker, and is only available during Black Friday sales, so having it early on the year as account bound is kind of good if you are aiming for that one. Chromaplasma may re appear in another Gifting center this year probably, but i wouldn't count on it.

    Yes, it's account bound when you gift 15 boxes to someone else. (not just character bound like most skins)

    Item claim has two tabs in it. The second tab are account items that can be claimed as many times as you want on the account. Any items labeled as account rather than character go in that second tab.

    After the boxes are opened, are their contents tradable?

    The box is guaranteed to give one thing and everything I have gotten from the boxes have valued anywhere from 50kg+ at the least to almost 200kg+. I would say it's worth it because any of the items you get from the boxes, aside from pure mats, are all obtainable from RNG loot boxes. I find it pretty fun to see what I am going to get (I have gifted as well). And yes, the contents of the box are tradable! (Feel free to gift me :awesome: )
