Hi all,

 

New "More resources" container type  - have you guys possibly switched the preference of your container acquisition?

FWIW I now only go for the 'more resources' ones; I might switch if/when I ever run out of stuff to buy with coal, but that is (literally) years away...

 

The magic modules, and interesting ships should keep me occupied for ages yet.

Yes, ive almost only taken more resources lately. Occasionally TYL if i feel like it. Only downside, i feel it could have more coal in it, since thats what im going for right now. Even tho in general getting 3 ESCL or Papapapa flags is not bad either, (or freexp) but id rather have 2x coal + something then mostly 1x coal + 2x something else. Think ive had 3x coal only twice so far.

Have like 114k coal right now, not sure if i go for Musashi or Salem... not into hightier battles right now anyway, so idc too much... already feels i wasted 750k FreeXP on Kronshtadt :cap_fainting:

I'm drowning in signals and credits, FXP I don't touch, and supercontainers are (too) rare of an occurrence for me anyhow, so I've abandoned TYL, and resorted to Resources as well. Will get the Musashi via coal and the coupon that way.

Only calculate the quarantined 400 coal for each drop.. Its still 1200 coal per day if you get all 3 each day. Already have enough coal to get Salem collecting these containers and the Go Navy ones..

Resources all the way, currently 107k coal, going for musashi

Same here. I also figured if I trade in my Navy points for just crates i can speed up the coal thing alot. Can i buy as many crates as I can afford with my loyalty points?

Still picking signals out of habit. Will switch if I can force myself to do so.

Awesome, thanks! I'll see how much crates i need to get the Musachi when the event ends. Not sure if I can afford the Des Moines camo and I really dislike the sculpted US skins. I prefer to get the IJN ship instead.

Used to be the signal containers, but since ive got enough signals for a looong time, switched to "more resource" containers, i want to pile up as mutch coal as possible, just in case Alaska gets the coal price tag :Smile_honoring:

Alternating more resources with supercontainers.  Before i was taking flags but i had some supercontainer luck so i gave them another try (and failing again).

 

Now 100k fxp away from Krohn so inclined to focus on getting fxp now through more resourses but gettting 2 supercontainers with 50fxp still makes the choice difficult.

 

Coal will only get me the Salem, which i dont really fancy...Coal income is quite high with current sharks/eagle missions. Oil is a nice side benefit.

Yes, getting More Resources all the time these days. I'm aiming to complete the Vive la France collection (wasn't able to play enough to do so at the time) and the Dunkirk collection (was before I joined the game) through the Arsenal. Really, the only disappointing possibility in those crates is more ramming flags...

 

I might go back to picking camos and signals if I run out of some important combat signal like India Delta, but I can also just get a pile of those with coal and a 50% voucher or two... I realise that's an inefficient use of coal in some ways, but I'm not that interested in any of the ships currently available in the arsenal, and it doesn't seem significantly less efficient than opening signals boxes hoping to get the ones you want.

I went from mostly TYL and sometimes the signals container (usually 1st crate I'd pick signal, all rest TYL) to mostly getting the resources container.

I have enough spare signals for now and the economical signals in the resources crates are nice to have (I was kinda low on stock on those). Also I intend to use some of the coal to complete the Dunkirk collection.

I've switched to Resources (occasionally still pick signals out of habit.... yes muscle memory is a thing for me :Smile_Default:)

The other stuff in the resources container is actually useful (no more ramming flags :Smile_glasses:), and the coal is stockpiling for Salem.

I've stuck with signals - as these are obviously being increasingly rationed and monetised at the moment.

 

 

(After three years of casual gameplay without even thinking about signals - they just topped up through normal gameplay and containers -  in the past couple of months I've suddenly started running out of the key non-economic ones. Now its a struggle to keep them in stock, and to avoid the kerching! of those sneaky gold debits).

Usually get only two containers daily. First one is Signals and second is Resources. If I get third container than usually I try Supercontainer.
