    Jackpot event with keys obtainable in-game without paying, lowering of enchanting prices, new dyeable costume available cheaply without EMP. Yeah, I can see there's nothing here for most average players.

    Just because you play this game, doesn't mean you're entitled to benefit as much as some of the other players who have spent time and preparation.

    300 keys and i got (5jackpots) 1 smart dyad, 2x 2000 premium, 2000 master alk and a rogue charm. I didnt get any jackpots until i had already spent 100 keys.
    meanwhile the prices of keys have gone up to about 3k on broker. looking back, i should have sold as many keys as possible and used those i didnt sell.

    If you havent stacked a bunch (100+) of keys in between strongbox events, you might consider selling them for a certain gold gain or skip the event entirely.

    If you really want to participate in a strongbox event, stack up on keys and boxes when they are cheap (when there is no event). Wait a few months, a strongbox jackpot event should drop eventually. At that time you can either:

    A ) try your luck at RNG and burn through all your keys and boxes. Maybe you'll get lucky.
    B ) sell all your keys and boxes at highly inflated prices to suckers who are trying their luck with RNG.

    Using method A, you might get rich. With method B, you'll definitely get rich.

    how did the rates for emp go from 1:10 all the way up to 1:40 ? it's insane.

    Gold inflation from Ghillieglade back when it dropped gold and double vanguard gold now.

    Ohhh, so that's what did it, I was wondering that :/ Good for me though lol
  • Yeah i got bad rng to. It just makes me disgusted when it seems like everyone around me is getting jackpots :( Best i got was 117 sb out of the 30 keys i had.

    @Nopi
    Ah sorry, it was not personally directed at you but my rhetoric expression (you are active in the forum and e.g. said that you got also costumes from last event).

    The normal blackguard and rogue are not on cash shop right now, but have been. I expect them to return anytime soon.

    75keys 4 jackpots - 6k extensive 1 costume... I am happy... compare to the very 1st lockbox event
    1.2k+ keys 4k mwa and around 5 rainbow.
  • feazesherofeazeshero ✭✭✭
    I ended up opening with about 125 keys and it resulted in:

    6000 Extensive Alkahest
    4000 Masterwork Alkahest
    3 Blackguard habit boxes
    2 Smart Dyad Structures

    I was hoping for more smart dyad but was happy with overall results.
  • @Minazuki @feazeshero wow you guys are lucky. Congrats!
  • 20 keys, 3 jackpots.
