    i already have 100 more keys and spamming to buy 2695emp(50 keys) more with all the gold i have left so if you are in HW mi and have 2696emp for sale my ign is Malheina andi m refreshing my msg in chat every 5 minutes or so

    once i get them ill be opening 150 in a row

    the technique i used before was opening all the boxes as fast as i could, does any of you guys has some lucky charm technique to share :awesome:? i might be doing it soon, if fact those 100 keys are already fire burning my hands
  • 99.99% sure it's superstition, but I do 10 of anything RNG related then change a variable. Different channel, location, etc., then try 10 more. Or the variable could be wait 5-10 seconds then go again.

    Time to QQ is over guys, i went in and bought 100 more keys plus i got 10 more with the reward credits and just open all of them at once and i finally got a jackpot, in fact i got 5

    i know that economically it wasnt worth and many other points you can argue but the fun or the joy im feeling right now is basically the reason why i play video games ^_^, im [filtered] hovering over my chair right now, im a simple guy and im willing to give away all my gold all over again for this smilie i have right now

    P.S: i know it is superstition but i used @cheekibreeki strategy just for fun and it worked :P
  • Hello
    I've used 70 key and of course get only Cruxe and a few potions. As you get only garbage it was real money for me in any case, the last use of. This has nothing to do with rng. that's just pure rip-off

  • LOL, so this went from a QQ thread to a "yay me!" thread? Um.. congrats? Seriously, I'm glad you finally got some good stuff out of it, but I think most people would have given up a long time before you did. RNGesus just kept kicking you and you kept throwing money at him anyway. That's dedication. =)

    Or addiction. One or the other.
  • After 6 months, I returned to play Tera!
    I created a ninja and I leveled up in 2 days till lvl 65 (without elite status with only story quest + dungeons).
    I knew about Bamarama Event and I decided to bet. I won about 16k and I bought 8 strongbox keys and...
    I found a jackpot: 2000 premium alkahest!!! LOL! This game love me again <3

    i was qqing out of frustaion but i never gave up :P, i have a suggestion that can help prevent some players frustation and it comes from a very popular online trading card game

    as in almost every TCG you need to open pack to get cards but the rarest card in this game this "legenday" cards are really hard to find so they implemented a system to prevent players frustation and to sell more packs ofc in wich they made it so that if on the first 40 packs you dont get a legendary card the next pack will have one guaranteed and this count resets every time you get one of this cards

    now im not saying that 40 should be the guaranteed number for a strongbox jackpot because it needs testing or some kind of analysis but im guessing around 75 or 100 for the very unlucky player because the lucky player will reset the count way before that

    The real winners are the ones who bought the keys for 600 ea and resold them to you for 2k+.

    327 keys is like 650k on my server, going 2k each

    The best jackpots, 2000 premium alkahests, is worth about 140k (prem alka is going about 65~70g apiece). Five of those jackpots is 700k.

    Congrats, you are ahead by 50k.

    Assuming you got some of your keys before the event when they were much cheaper (750g?) and plan to sell some of the alkahests at a higher price much later, you'll end up with even greater returns in the long run, too!

    I sold 12k emp worth of keys and got 500k. I hate RNG so I just buy what I want instead of gamble for it. Costumes, for example or +15 weapons.

    I'm usually of the same mind. I've been baited in the past to buy keys, back before they had them in more affordable bulk prices. The very first strongbox event. The money I spent only to get nothing.. My memory of how much has been repressed.

    I say I won't everytime there's a key event but I always give in to some extent. The event 3-4 weeks ago I didn't participate in, but this event was too good to pass up and RNG was both kind and cruel, but I think I came out on top. Sometimes it's better not to know :awesome:

    i paid 1.7k for keys i didnt use the broker, but still, i dont care about the gold and if after this 327 keys i had 0 jackpots i was going to keep oppening till i get a jackpot, i dont see TERA's gold as something important and i wont hesitate to use it for my amusement
