If you buy in bundles of 10 or more then you have less chance of getting something because it is decided as soon as you get them, smaller bundles have seemed to work for me ships wise.

"Apparently" the boxes are decided at the point of sale, so buying in small batches will re-roll and update to what you might get in comparison to what's in your port.

It's my birthday today so buying 10 medium ones because wg have my dob...yeah thats as likely as your suggestions It's not without reason to buy the crates smaller numbers at a time. The game determines the drops in the crates and checks what premium ships you have at the moment you recieve them. So if you buy lots of crates and get multiple ship containers, there's a chance that you can get duplicate ships. If you however buy the crates in smaller stacks, the chance to get more than one ship per bunch is very low, which almost eliminates the chance for getting duplicate ships. If you buy for example 20 crates at once, get lucky with three ships, you might end up with one or possibly two duplicates, which translates into only one ship and some spare doubloons (plus two port slots and two captains). If you buy those same crates in stacks of five and not get more than one lucky ship per stack, you are guaranteed to get three unique ships. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you can't see it here you never will. How the game determines drops and checks against duplicates isn't a baseless assumption. But since you're so eager to just brush of my advice and denounce my learning capacities I doubt I'd have to waste time going into more detail as I already did. Take it or leave it, whichever suits your attitude best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
