I didn't get a single Item over class C in my crate.

4 Bloody Branch
1 Buff Scroll Box (Seriously? /swt)
5 Inccubus Tames
250 Valour Badges (Which i don't need since i did BG sooooo much already in the begining)

Usually I get the S Class or A Class item in 1 or 2 boxes so I guess my luck is just balancing out now, but with people complaining like this I feel robbed.
Made 65M off the Branches and tames though so I guess that gives SOME benefit. I'm still very sad though. I like the idea of at least getting Class item voucher and choosing what you want from there.

OMG! Thank you, I feel better now.

Step 1: read.
Step 2: think.
Step 3: write.
Step 4: success.

in this order

If everyone else is getting the same results as me (and I've read a few posts about people getting a lot of Virgos), the Lucky Box is broken at the moment. No QQ here. Just saying.

Follow your own advice and get some data before assuming something is broken. I opened like 40 boxes and got maybe 6-7 virgo, which is pretty much what I expected from the tier on the prize chart. Get over yourself and cry into your pillow not the forum.

your math seems off. This is 50 boxes not 100. Seems to me you left out all your class D stuff. 31% of total boxes being virgo? That seems about right. Maybe a little over. Its probably a 1 in 4 thing as it is 2 of 3 the C rank items.

I would think like 1/2 items should be D, 1/4 should be C, A little less than 1/4 are B, and the tiny remainder is the A/S class stuff. Seems like you're about on target with around 80% of your boxes being C/D prizes. (technically on target should be 75%, but there is always a margin of error with randomized stuff).

I got 10 out of 47 I think? I know there's extreme cases, but I don't see why people have the need to exaggerate on how many they get.

[Kadelia]

The only person I feel bad for is 'zr0rieu' lol.

[Myzery]

Maybe Boxter will have some mercy on him.

[CeruleanGamer]

I only look at it this way.

More Virgo Crowns = more recycler attempts.

whoops your right 50 boxes... making virgo crowns 60% of total boxes and zero items left out...

I will never understand how people spend so much in these boxes, I swear some need to control their gambling urges lol. Only got 2 virgo crowns outta 10 boxes btw, also got 2k medals and a benevolent guardian outta a summer box; it's just that random.

You opened 50 boxes and didn't get a single D-class item (buff scroll, mercenary scroll, bloody branches, (etc)? I find that very hard to believe.

So a 20-30% chance to get Virgo from these boxes is totally OKAY and intended? When Virgos are 2 out of 15 items? You must be the master of logic. I got 3x more Virgo Crowns than any other item. Read this thread: Other people got even more Virgos. Still think this is good? Go troll somewhere else.

[Kadelia]

Yes. If being right and having a grasp on statistics makes me a master of logic to you, I think you may need some counseling for your self esteem.

You misunderstand how the system of item distribution works. Its not a % chance to get a virgo. Its a % chance to get rank C. And since Rank C is almost essentially just the virgo crown or diadem, a huge chunk of your items is virgo headgears.

Buyer f'ing beware. Stop crying. Stop pounding your fists and trying to throw a tantrum at me. You didn't understand what you were buying and its your own fault. There is probably going to be an exchanger for the virgo hats and you'll get more chances at different items. Stop blubbering like a spoiled child and ask questions instead of trying to tell people how things are. As you are wrong.

Please don't troll the forum with unrealistic gripes toward a fair and well-understood by the veteran community event. Instead of making assumptions about how it works and complaining when you are justifiably wrong, ask a veteran next time.

Next thing you know, someone's gonna make a thread that they opened 500 boxes and got 400+ crowns. We got one for 300 so far. Any minute now trolls.

[Intrigue]

It's all part of a lottery and you assume the risks when you buy the lucky boxes. At least make the crowns +7 so I can buy one at a cheap price =o

It's so nice to make the acquaintance of a friendly and totally not self-absorbed veteran player like you

[Kadelia]

Can't say it feels the same meeting a spoiled and self-absorbed person who has no interest in freeing themself of their own ignorance, and wants to be lied to to protect his immature feelings instead of being told the truth like an adult.

Its not like I expect otherwise from these forums, but I am not your mother, so don't expect me to coddle you with undeserved kind words when you're being a brat.

[Yoozie]

lmao got 17 more boxes got mostly virgo/buff scroll/sprout hat/ancient horns. NO glasses, NO medals, NO riser, NO summer hat box from 33 boxes... wow

[Beyond]

the rates are perfectly fine. I think a better way to deal with the virgo issue is just to add more items to the C rank class. Since we know you have the best chance at C, maybe having 5 items will lower the virgo rate enough not to be so bad

[Tigra]

I just wish the stupid headgears were vendable.

I think having the boxster come in next week will be A LOT more valuable to players versus just having them out right vendable to people. Think about it.

If there are a total 10,000 of a single helm in everyones storage. Having them come out would kill the value of that item. what would be the point of vending it when the price dropped to 5k. Have the boxster remove the excess and then make them vendable only after that

Some people want Zeny more than they want more boxes. Having the items vendable during a boxster trade in would really be best for keeping the value of the items high... Which in turn encourages more sales.

[Beyond]

I agree(I am greedy fellow and love zeny) but I can also be impatient.

I would rather vend a virgo for like maybe a mil and have it sell rather than for under a 100k. Bringing them in at the same would also work as people who would like to box 20 virgo helm and vend like two can do so
