Thank you How many did you buy? The only think in them that is poor value in my opinion is the camouflages. Special signals are great and ships are a bonus. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The problem with the various gambling boxes is that you need to buy a relatively large quantity to avoid the vagaries of RNG; over many boxes, the drop rates appear to be about the same this year, given the limited data so far. That said, the general feeling is that the medium sized boxes are probably the best value (fwiw I got 5 ships out of 40 boxes this year, which is within spitting distance of the previously estimated 1-in-10 chance of a ship)... (Obviously, this assumes you don't disapprove of these boxes on principle, and you're interested in getting *a* ship, rather than a specific one.) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In other words, the Xmas crates tend to be far better value - from a ships perspective - if you have lots of premium ships already (and, ideally, all the low tier ones).

He called it scam LUL Well its rng, even if the chance of getting a premium ship was 50%, if 1 million people bought 20 boxes each, on average one poor little bugger wouldnt get a single ship. If you are looking at getting ships or especially a specific ship(dont) then these boxes are crap value for money. If you are looking at getting a mix of prem time, coal and signals, then i believe that they can be pretty good value, with the added bonus of maybe getting a ship. The reason that i hate these boxes is not because of their overall value, its because they pray on the gambling addicted and weak. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SIGX5 Players 51 posts 5,126 battles Report post #14 Posted December 4, 2020 Flamu just tested it on his NA account which didnt have the shortlisted ships. And the ships he got from the containers was the makarov from the smaller and Yudachi from Megas. And the chance RNG would choose those from all the possible, is very low. He is uploading it to YT ASAP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[SYTHE] _Flyto_ Players 623 posts 7,167 battles Report post #20 Posted December 4, 2020 I'm not sure there's any evidence that this "shortlist" is the mechanism. But it is starting to look fairly plausible that certain ships have *much* higher odds than others, even others at their tier (I mean beyond the rare vs others distinction) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
