Hate to be a cynic, but the Elite MPS Vessel didn't work so there's nothing to make me believe this one will. Have fun playing the event for free, but I surely wouldn't throw gold at a likely broken unit.

On a positive note, GREE actually made it a true week long event.

Why can't Gree(dy) allow free players like me to reset timer for in game cash$??? Buy gold to reset the timer? I refuse to pay real $ for fake $. Gimme a break Gree(dy) and allow us to spend in game cash to reset timer!! Idc if it's a few million - level the playing field Gree(dy)!!!

I'd rather it be around what I pay for a cash open. I'm charged 134,000 to open so maybe 200000 would be nice. Thats should be a option though.

Rushed to 3 units subconsciously before I realize that the stats on the Top Prize are just barely over the Transport Raider.

Thats should be a option though.The "open" is 1000 x your level to get your price of 134,000 at level 134 - so if the Reset was 10 x the open price - then it would be $1,340,000 - That would be very fair - except that they will never replace anything that costs Gold with a cash option.

I have always sucked at these events, but since it's a uk dream I will give it a try. I don't care about the extra valor, it would just be nice to get 10 boxes just once.

vaporeon

I know I can use a valor boost. I just hope it works. I may have the +2 valor unit. Not sure what that was though as I don't really PvP anymore.

Everyone can participate at any level, everyone can earn the prize, and we do not have to do the "leaderboard stuff"

As you've all said they are very weak prizes, the 9 prize used to be noteworthy, it is noting more than an uncommon crate item now.

Poor attempt, I hope the collect 10 events aren't all like this now.

Totally agree that stats on the units are awaful.

At my level the top unit has stats of 185/182 the 7th & 9th
is about as good as a crate unit & in no way enticing me into bothering with this event.

Could the latest collect 10 event be less exciting?

The top prize, after opening 10 GOOD crates (which means you probably opened at least 300 crates) is a ship with 235/209 stats, that give you 20% MORE useless valor.

Valor, really valor, you're not kidding me, are you?

Sorry, I'll sit this one out, too!

Very true! 5 years as a Naval Corpsman has made me critical of everything I see. Movies, graphics, toys... But I'm sure Gree does not care too much about accuracy. :)

So why go for the units.
If you really belive the units are terrible stat wise it makes no sense to say so,then try to get them.
If pps try for to get them all gree sees is moaning,if no one bothered gree would notice that,if all they see is pp saying there not that good however pps still try for them why would they change anything.
Saying gree doesn't care doesn't cut it,if no one went for them gree would notice.
I seriously mean no offence one iota to anyone at all,this is just my point off view not condoning anyone.
If you are going for the units; good luck to you & I mean that whole heatedly.

This isn't a question.
I question no one,it's your choice,all the above is,is my point of view & nothing else.

I hope I can say my view without causing offence as said i seriously mean none to anyone.

For me, most would make it into battle, but they're not strong enough to justify the leveling I'd have to do to get them. The boss event is a much better return on leveling(this is how you approach the game when you're fiscally challenged).

I already have a 40% valor bonus, supposedly, but I don't see that it's given me much of an advantage, if any. If it was a bonus I could trust, I might go for it for the chance.

Good luck to everyone pursuing this!

If you just stay steady at the event , you have a Good chance of reaching to at least 7,could even get to nine. And it is possible to win the 10th as a free player. I know a lot of forum members have reached past 10 completely free before. If its your time, it's your time.

That's normal. Getting to 7 isn't difficult. Getting to 8,9,10 . Different story. Could be a day or two before you get to 8 if you even get to 8. As Free player, only keep your hopes up to reach 7 , if you make it to 9, or 10 . Then feel lucky. It is possible, just don't get your hopes up to reach 10 . If its your time to win, it's your time.

25 stamina yields me about 8 boxes

That's what I used to do, I just don't wanna kill off my Super Hornets in hopes of finding a box, but looks like that's a trade off I'll have to deal with. Most opponents that don't result in casualties for me are usually inactive.

The first day I'd get boxes from the Rail gun Destroyer at the Naval map, 370 exp and around a 1 in 2 box drop.
Since then, it's all PvP. I only do PvP during an event, so I can complete some valor missions and get boxes/crates.

I was stuck on after after opening my first 7 boxes and getting missiles. Then today after 30 openings i got two missiles in a row and got to 10. It was like gree wanted to make sure i sent some gold. I haven't bought any since starting the boycott, luckily I had some already purchased. Down to my last 75 and will not purchase anymore.

Yeah like poop said, specifically look for a low ranked target. If their unit count is only in the hundreds (assuming this player is max allied) you won't suffer many losses, if any at all.

I guess I can try that but I cant see ranks on android.

Poopenshire
11-26-2012, 03:59 PM
Rank doesn't help, look for a base with <1000 units. typically these are bases where the player has quit. you can confirm by seeing no cash buildings available to raid and no posts in a long time. sometimes it help to leave a message and come back to ensure no one is still playing that account.

was debating using some TJ gold on opens and decided to roll the dice with a single crate. Got an uncommon with 60/87 stats. Much better than the number 9 unit I would have received if I had done an open and got the 9th tomahawk! Woohoo!

Right, just thinking in terms of; a private is more likely to be an abandoned account than say a major (Rankings have been out since what May/June? Pretty easy to get 251 BPs). But it would be unwise to assume every medium/high ranked account is an active account. Or vice versa; low ranked accounts can still be active.

I just notice a lot of low ranked players in the low 100's with 300 - 800 units, so it's easier to just target them on the rivals list first when looking for abandoned accounts.

Good work manbeast! The events are rigged for me. Nothing but sorry and crapy in-destructible for the past one and a 1/2 days... And I'm still sitting on 9. I see a common trend here, because I have gold that I refuse to spend due to the boycott, they know it and are preventing me from getting the final unit. I would be surprised to get it before the end...because win not bowing down and spending crap all gold to get it. We'll see what happens over the remaining days.

Mmm, something caught my eye;

You're ship is being called a Seawolf class destroyer with an strength of 289 / 244.
The unit that I can win if I can collect 2 more Tomahawks is a called a Typhoon class destroyer with 235 / 209

Given an open, expect a 15.58% chance at the 8th part (for whatever reason it's 13.79% in the 81+ group); and then for #9 it's a 7.14% chance given an open (6.25% for 81+ tier).

The odds of receiving the 10th part given an open is ~2%, so not impossible, just requires luck.

StevieBoy
11-27-2012, 12:22 PM
I must be really unlucky then because I have already tried well over 25X to open #9...the math doesn't work for me...

Dr. Dengus
11-27-2012, 12:27 PM
25 attempts, or 25 opens? If the open rate is 40% (being generous here), then the chance of receiving #9 from just tapping the middle option is a measly 3% (0.4 * 0.0714) = 2.856%.

No gold at all. just threw in-game money at it till 10 popped up. Got them all in 2 and a half days. The thing that really sucks is I was looking forward to getting more valor because I could use some. My game glitched last time and I lost all my valor. That was when I had like 250,000. I'm still mad about it because I was saving for some of the better valor units...

I know have 56 crates left. I wish there was a way I could just give these to someone.

I'd take some off your hands if I could. I'm still at nine, but I'm not hunting for anymore crates.

I've already leveled up 2 or 3 times, and extremely close to again. I should have bypassed this event and waited for a boss event. Could have gotten 14 more and prob better units than the ones I got from this one. Oh well.

That sucks about your lost valor. Also sucks I/we have to love tap a Rival just so I can buy Hardened Marine's and Expert Attack Drones and the other valor units from the rankings

I doubt it's pre-determined. My guess is, once you click the open option, it asks the server to generate a random number to determine the outcome.

Got to 7 at the end of day 2 but none since. Looks like another event I do not win. Not sure how I can open 18 a day and over the past 4 days I have not seen # 8, 9, or 10.

I can assure is random like Dr states
long ago when this events started I sent a ticket to support asking them how the items is determine and if gold guarantees a part
their answers was
1- gold do not guarantee a part only a open
2 - if you have 1 or 40 boxes, they are all random (they are not numbered 1 to 40 and you do not open #1 or #40, first, they are all the same)
3 - item inside the box is chosen randomly when box is open

Just got number 10 with like 7 hours to go, all cash opens cept second missile which was a free.

And no I'm not getting extra valor, certainly not 20% extra. I just attacked a person twice, got 1 valor the first time and 6 the next time.

Seems we got it at the same time...? Coincidence or what? Maybe everyone had to try in the 8th or 7th hour of the last day to get it. I don't think it has to do with a multiplier at all. I got a box and opened it immediately with the middle option and bang, got the missile. Been trying for days before that, successful opens only got me crappy returns continuously. I'd say they GREE realized everyone was onto their scheming ways so they thought they'd put it back the way it was in the first t days. Hence, why people got it around the same time. That's a coincidence!

Well, there we have it, folks.

The EXTRA 20% valor boost does NOT work.

I'm not going to say you are wrong because we have seen evidence some of the units that have boosts don't work.

However, with regards to this particular boost, how can we be sure it doesn't work? I ask this because I get 1 valor per attack quite a lot. If I were to get this unit with +20% increase in valor, and I attacked the same rival what should we expect to see? I believe we would see the 1 valor as before because 1 x 1.2 = 1.2 or effectively 1 again.

In the case where we would get 5 valor from an attack, with the 20% boost we would get 5 x 1.2= 6

So in essence the boost is insignificant at 20%.

The boost for valor should have been at least 50%, more like 100% extra valor. That would be a worthwhile boost.

I believe I have all the other valor boost rewards, which amount to 120%, 120% of 1 isn't 1, its 2. Shrug, its not like valor is that useful at higher levels anyways, units die too easy.

Oh but interestingly enough, when attacking someone the most valor I used to get is 33, now its 35.

I figured there would be other units from the past with the same boost, and yes you should never be lower than 2 in that case. Oye...

I'm surprised my +50% from cash raids boost works. It doesn't do a whole lot of good now either when casualty losses are what they are.

I got the MPS Vessel with 40% + the SeaWolf 20% = 60% More Valor boost total & when i do PvP is pretty much the same thing. I can get 1 valor anytime i do PvP... I guess we need to send ticket or tell CCMark about this or something...

Day one, using game cash I got 5 missiles, day two I got 4 using the free option. At this point I was ahead of my "2 a day" plan......now I've been trying mainly game cash for 4 days and get nothing most the times, no sign of a missile. Used gold to get a 100% open and got a ghost hound troop that died in next battle haha. What a false incentive :(

BAM! Just got #10, whoo hoo! Yeah I know it's not the greatest boost, but heck the unit itself is pretty cool, and it didn't cost me any gold.

I never thought I'd get there, the first day or two I was casually doing mixed free and cash attempts with hardly any opens. Then they started coming fairly quick. Got the 9th early yesterday and was encouraged by others getting #10 fairly early. Glad to have another trophy on the shelf. It would be nice if it added to the goal valor awards...it just says 20% more valor rather than being specific about raids, attacks, etc. so who knows. Otherwise it has minimal impact.

I hope they continue to throw us more of these 10 item events every now and then, but for now I will gladly put that box opening expenditure to better use. :)

Thanks Romaro and Gambit...it's only my second one, I also have the Falcon Jet (?) that gives the energy boost, which is one of the better ones. Finally able to put that to use farming decent loot.

Seawolf Class Destroyer is also in my inventory:D The hardest was to get from #8 to #9. It took me about three days and a lot of sorries in the meantime. I've got #9 about three hours ago and within the last 45 minutes of the event I used 210 gold to open 7 from my 12 last boxes and got fully successfull. Congrats to all that managed to collect 10 tomahawks. Cheers

Yeah I have the 40% valor boost from the MPS Vessel and receive 16 Valor in some fights, which should be impossible given a working boost :

11 * 1.4 = 15.4 or 15 Valor
12 * 1.4 = 16.8 or 17 Valor

Unless these #'s get truncated, I should never see 16 valor from a fight.

There is no consistancy with this game. i very rarely use gold, only when it is very cheap, like the 40% off at the start of this event. I had 7 opened boxes by the end of day 1, used all my gold! then for the next 4 days couldn't open another one using cash every time, i must've opened at least 40 boxes over the last few days with not one box being opened, Never again will i buy anything from this game, such a waste of money! How do you get 7 in one day and then nothing in 4 days?????
Using Cash= Medium chance= My left nut, what a joke!
