I bought 8xMega lottery tickets. It seems all my luck ran out in the very first, free one (180 days of premium) as this time I got:

12,5k coal, 4x30 Dragon flags and 2x20 normal camos and 1x5 Asia Lantern camos. 

Useful stuff, but not worth the cost IMHO...

Mostly the same here, WG change Florida against Standart Massa. Massa is not needed, ich have Black Version since 3 years. Other Christmas stuff was unimportant, so i forget it.

Next free box => Jurua

 

A pretty common drop, I guess.

If only we could know, what ships do you have in your port (OR BETTER what you miss from the 134 ships list), we can then meaningfully deduce if it is common bcs of like a shortlist, or bcs no one has it and has most of the ships and not this one.

 

Thank you in advance

I already had the (free) Blyskawica and Kirov. I got the Admiral Makarov and the Jurua from the (free) small containers.

Exchanged 20 certs for 4 Mega Crates got 30 Basilisk, 2 sets of paint and a Irian, handy for the upcoming Pan Asian Cruiser line I guess! Will bag another 75 steel with her too! Wasn't expecting any ships so pleasant surprise!

 

2 certs left, 3 million+ FXP, 230 million credits in the bank, with 7 Tier 9s that I am still grinding on and off do I FXP them all and get 7 more certs grab a steel or coal ship with new coupon and get a couple more mega crates, decisions, decisions

hate the super containers being replace by inferior santa/supersanta crates they are so meh

 

All together now: Xmas rewards have never (?) involved SCs; you're thinking of the anniversary snowflakes.

 

(I'm also pretty confident that the Mega crates at least are drastically superior to SCs, at least in terms of ship drops; at the bare minimum, you're more likely to get a ship, *and* the number of ship options is far higher)

 

Plenty of reasons to batter WG, but this ain't one of them...

I feel like a gigantic moron. 

 

With the new coupon I got Napoli, which gave me a 5th token to get a Mega container.

In that container, I got 2500 doubloons, yay that's nice ! :cap_haloween:

Guess what, I couldn't resist the temptation to buy 2 other Mega containers with those dubs :cap_money:

2x Camos. :cap_fainting:

 

I don't like those WoWS crates, I think WoT crates are better, the tank drop rate is lower but you actually get value in gold in every crate.

It’s like lottery. People pay more than what they get back as a win. People still continue to pay hoping to get the jackpot, which is practically impossible, but at least they can hope.

Well it is a lottery. However I bought an 8 Mega Crate bundle yesterday, got myself a Tirpitz, Indianapolis and 180 days Premium so I got my £24 got me £96 worth of (albeit) digital goods at 2 of which were wanted. I've done worse on the others but am definitely up in terms of ships and doubs even if some of the ships are "filler" ships. I feel I've beaten the odds so far. It's knowing when to stop.

9 Mega containers, 3 Small ones (all freebies) :fish_cute_2::Smile_great:

I now have about 10k dubs and I'm starting to think about getting 8 more Megas, but maybe I should just get permacamos as per my original plan... 

 

However, can someone explain to me where the Free Cpt XP comes from, and what happend to the 9th Mega container?

Clearly, the 3 Small ones went to 2 sets of camos and 500 dubs, and 8 Mega ones to 2 ships + 3 sets of special flags + 1x180 premium + 2x2500 dubs.

 

I'm confused...:Smile_unsure:

You either opened your 9th mega already, or encountered a bug. I would not open a ticket though, this is a nice haul that you might loose in a rollback.

No, they're booth from a small one: they're not the Spring Sky/Mosaic/Chinese Lantern ones.

 

But on the thread I opened someone pointed out the 56k Cpt XP is from a Ranked Silver container, which means I had only 8 Megas to open.

I guess I opened it already and forgot about: it's weird, but at least one mystery is solved...:fish_book:
