Battleground Victory Box Suggestions
Hey there. As the title lists out, Battleground Boxes. We all queue up for battlegrounds, such as Corsair Stronghold, Fraywind Canyon, and Skyring(yes, Gridiron too, but we know the PvP community is pretty meh on it). Anyway, we all do queue for them, whether we enjoy them or not, which tends to be a bit annoying when you win and then, behold, you get something like a Battle Nostrum or that whopping 6 Tier 11 Feedstock. For myself, I've thought that the rewards inside the boxes are understandable, specifically when they came out, but as time has gone on, the rewards have become much less rewarding, and honestly seemed like it would be more disappointing than really rewarding. Hence, this thread being created. Note that this is for pure suggestions and added on opinions on said rewards. Personally, I don't see having to add much to the boxes themselves, but improving what was in them.
Allow me to give a rundown of what could potentially be held inside of these boxes. Mind you, there have been some rewards that are obtained in these, even though not listed, such as battle solutions.
Also, ignore the "New" part, as this was a screenshot used a while ago when these boxes were first released.
In some form, these rewards from the boxes are indeed nice, and I can't deny, that they are pretty fair in a sense of the rewards you CAN obtain, but the amount of feedstock, ore, rejuvenation/health potion can be discouraging to get, and to be quite honest, don't really make much sense. I can understand the idea behind just one potion or bravery, which is fine, in a sense, but what about the amount of feedstock given? A slight increase to that would be nice, or maybe a change of what's inside the boxes would be good. Personally, I thought that removing battle solutions and increasing the amount of certain items would make these much more rewarding to farm.
For suggestions, is there any other things that could be done to make it more enticing to farm? VM9 materials are already out of the idea as some of these boxes are meant to be more rewarding than others(sorry Kumas, but you're just not even done at level 65 RIP items and titles, ecks dee).
My own idea, or suggestions, would be as follows:

My own idea, or suggestions, would be as follows:
- Feedstock amounts changed to be in stacks of 50, 100, and 150/200
- Ominous Ore amounts changed to be anywhere between 10 to 35
- Health/Rejuvenation Potion amounts changed to be 5-15
- Bravery Potion changed to stacks of 5-15
- Add in Noctenium Infusions in stacks of 500, 1000, or 1500
- Have Uncommon Noctenium Elixirs added (potentially alone or random amount of 1-10?)
- Add Talisman of Lakan and Lakan's Banner to Gridiron Box

people queue team 3s everyday and if theres a nice reward people would want to queue more just because a part of the game is so called ''dead'' doesn't mean it should be excluded
that funny when u lv 65 and play at kumas and get tier 4 alkahest and fs
i more prefer change the bonanza box and lakan treasure (tier 10 fs change to tier 11)
In response to OP: Agreed, though numbers could be slightly smaller (ominous ore 6-15, considering that's what the daily boxes potentially drop) if BHS wants to remain stingy. I think it would be too much of a jump currently for BHS to be willing to consider. Would rather have the chance to get 1-5 strong braveries. I'm drowning in regular ones since they're the vg weekly rewards. Normally my pvp-only friends will max out vgs on 1-3 different chars depending on the battleground of the day so they probably have quite a lot too. As an avid pvper, I'd love these amounts, but this might be unbalanced, but I guess could be tweaked by the rates of the chance to obtain. 200/400/500 may be more fair. I would agree with alone, as they're meant to be a vanguard sink, and battlegrounds to have vanguard credit rewards. Agreed.
I want to say the most that would be changed would be the VM materials in them, so I personally think the rewards in the boxes should last us a good while if they were to be revised.
