The reward for collecting all 8 units is better then the 25 assault rifles needed to finish the current event. Im going for it. I have 2 units so far and hopefully i can finish event and get all 8 units for less then 1000 gold. I will post each day with my progress. I use gold to open each case, but i do not reset the timer so i open about 15 a day. Wish me luck.

Have been opening all day since 7am, so I have opend 14 boxes so far, I got 5 rifles and 2 of the unites, at this rate I could get to 25 but I still need to get more lucky.... so far all boxes have been opend with cash.

It's very very very unlikely to get all 8 units. It's just another event GREE made to make us spend more money.

How do you get your gold? I would like to assume that you are not that stupid to spend that kind of cash on this game, especially just one event.

You would be very surprised then to know how much others spend on this game. Even more than him.

I do like that they added this to the crate event. Much better than getting valor or cash

my hlp 5 rifles 11 try again (3 rifles in last 3 opens) all cash tries

my llp 6 rifles 2 try again and 8/8 done cash opens and 4 gold opens ...

so who knows its all about pure luck! two years of playing 2 accounts have never opened 20+ even when once dropped 3k gold

I find that this box/crate event is my Achilles heal. Similar to the one before this, I spent in excess of 2k gold and still missing one last unit to complete 8/8 items.

On the flip side...been getting plenty rifles which makes it even more annoying cos it's not my objective at all to do so.

I will try hard not participate again on the next box/crate events..I need to break away from this insane spending.

01-26-2014, 03:13 AM
On LLP.. 6/8 units, 15 rifles. Same units over and over again. Spend about 800 gold at this point. Some I know were lucky to have completed the unit event already between 400-600 gold. Last crate event got to 9/10 on day one. Spend 700 gold to get the last one.. never happened. If it doesn't happen this time it was my last gold spend on the damn crate events.

01-26-2014, 05:59 AM
This event is a total joke every time they run this one I'm lucky if I open 5 crates and once again 2 days in I've only opened 2 rifles and zero bonus units I started out using cash opens but now I'm so frustrated I'm only using free hit. I will not use gold on these events as gree is getting to Greedy and my gold use will only be used for wars from now and your losing customers fast with events like this. Once again thanx gree fir screwing over the little guy

01-26-2014, 09:24 AM
Yes dtg is right, I find it easiest to get what you are looking for first couple of hours into it and last couple of hours, this is my experience probably not everyone else's, I got 23 rifles and 8/8 with about 1000 gold but it jumped my stats 528k so no complaints here. This event gets me every time to I personally love the "gamble" of it

Level 210...30 cash opens, 6 rifles and 1 unit...
Level 67.... 30 cash opens, 7 rifles and 4 units

I see the same pattern every crate event...the llp gets a significantly better drop rate and I open in parallel to each other

I will give you a B-125 vengeance in exchange for a BMP-5 stalker (If only this was possible)

robmurphy

I would love to see the algorithm they use, or at least the key influence's. So far, after opening 41 crates, I've got 7/8 of the special units and 8 rifles - without spending a single gold piece. Same last time, the Easter island head event, I got the 10/10 unit without a single gold piece. And yet I see people on this forum spending thousands of gold without getting the top prize.

minis wont do this event, but main account uses only cash openings and so far has gotten:

5 unique units (one is double), got the 4th 1hr ago and 5th right now, so guess no 8 units for me and not gonna try for it either :D
and 11 rifles :D so no 25 of them either :D

01-27-2014, 06:15 PM
Like hooply up there, but not as lucky, I am only lacking 2 more from making 8 on both accounts with 10 rifles and 8 on the other. Zero gold spent, even though it is enticing to spend. I probably will not make all 8 but, would be nice. Attempting opens roughly 14 hours a day.

Currently missing the Guardian Tank, and the 054 Jiangwei.

But that just goes to show ya some ppl do actually make it to the end without spending a dime. Congrats to you Hooply. And good luck to the rest of you.

This event had a nice little twist...I just got 8/8 of the loot prizes which gave a unit with a nice bonus. I can't really complain as I got this using only the mid cash-option (NO GOLD). I must admit that the previous event like this sucked** with the ever humiliating $4000 and $15000 cash drops (still shaking head at gree for that)

I currently have 10 rifles for those who are curious...

Is this just me or have they changed the drop rate mid event? I was at 1/8 this very morning. Then i had 7 in a row today. I finished 8/8 in just half a day? After 4 days without any luck. Seems a bit odd to me. I still have 6 rifles though.

01-29-2014, 11:07 AM
Been stuck on 7/8 for a few days now, waiting for the vengeance unit. Ended up spending on this event, which is a first time for me in a very long time. My experience has been quite the opposite, as I've only been opening duplicates of the worst units. I've collected, for instance, 10 infiltrators... What a nightmare. It's difficult to see the first powerful unit we've seen in a long time thats possible for us weaker/poorer players pass me by. A sudden urge to nuke is setting in...

I've spent 3 vaults and still at 7/8...bull****
Did you throw this much gold at it from the start, or did you get to 6/8, 7/8 and then go at it with bars?

I actually got all 8 units and 10 rifles without using any GOLD!! I had 2-3 other members that also received all 8 items. SO EXCITING!!!

It's very very very unlikely to get all 8 units. It's just another event GREE made to make us spend more money.

The first 10 boxes i opened up, about 7 opened. The next 15 only had about 2 and just stole my money

confirmed, didnt get 8 units :D had some gold left from a year ago when gree gave it for non working unit, wasted it here :D got 8+ other units but not the needed one. Now I can breathe easily cause have dusted off the gold that standed there over a year :D
