I think it depends on what level you are... Mine only took 585 in gold (level 78) some have taken 1600 gold...Quote:

I am level 68
Almost 1800 for me.
Level 133
it's pure luck, previous time i got it for free, this time i spend 2 vaults to get it with time resets. it has happened to spend 5k gold and not get the prize
I don't understand the whole timer reset strategy that people do. Why not just open them hourly (with gold if you so choose) and then with a few hours left just go crazy with all the timer resets? Even if you opened 8-10 a day, you'd save a ton of gold which could be used on crates or something else. Not a gold user so it really doesn't matter to me, just doesn't make sense.
There's a (false) superstition that you have better luck in the beginning.Quote:

Jakers, the longer into the event it gets the less likely you are to get what you need...
That's my plan! I have a timer on my phone to check every hour >_>;Quote:

Another reason is that there are many players who are sitting in houndred thousands of gold so it makes no difference if they spend 1vault more or 1 vault less, they just want the prize ASAP
2 vaults in first 2 hours should put that superstition to bed. Damn Gree.
This theory usually includes this too:Quote:

I love all these random theories....
One theory I've heard that might hold some water is:Quote:

Now if you use the timer reset and don't exit the Event screen, the odds won't reset until you are attempt to get the 10th item. So, you maintain the ~50% chance of getting items 1 thru 9 instead of diminishing odds if you exit the event screen and allow your device to re-sync with Gree's server's.
Empirically, I have only tested this once. I accumulated about 30 crates before I began opening them. Then I opened them all never exiting the event screen using the timer reset and gold open option. It only took me 300 gold to get from 1 thru 9, and I spent the rest of a vault of gold without getting the 10th item.
So take this anyway you want.
ur to speed guy's....
here a result from my 2 account :
8/10 and 6/10
i got screen with the amount of gold i have when i start..
io opening all hours and all cash options.
u don't need to spend so many gold, i proof it another time
Myself a few select friends tested a version of that around the new year, the TLDR summary of the results was that it didn't work. Odds get recalc'd every time, unfortunately. :(Quote:

Well I got the first 5 for free using cash out of my first 8 crates. Then I saw what looks like the shortest 20% sale ever and purchased a swift 650 gold. Burned through that to get to 9 now I'm going to use the remaining 100 or so on opens only. Wish me luck!
20% sale??? it's BS if there was a 20% sale that was brief... I never saw it at all... They need to remember time zonesQuote:

Using Gold, I had 8 Bonds after 9 case opens. #9 was on open 58. Don't have #10 yet after 144 opens. Anyone want a Carnival Sledgehammer? I got a bunch of 'em.
8/10 & 8/10 No gold at the moment, left 2 day's why spend 2 vaults ? u think there is only a numbre of Bond ? lol..Quote:

I started this thread - it cost me 2700 gold bars!!!
I am very disgruntled that it cost me this much. There was a bug fix on my iPad this morning and on my first attempt after the update I got my 10th.
Coincidence?
Advice please if you do not think it was a coincidence.......
Am I missing something? How are you people able to spend 800+ gold bars on an event. How are you getting that much gold?
You buy it in the game.Quote:

good luck. i am on 7 open cases. using cash only (no gold). wondering if you really spend money to buy the gold or are you getting gold from offers?
wish to get tot 10 but don't think i'll make it without gold.
in the event info it says gold (100% chance to open). i thought it would take 10x15 gold to get to the end. this is wrong i understand.
You are guaranteed an opening, but not necessarily a 10 item. It might be cash, respect, or one of the weapons.Quote:

yea baby - 30% off building upgrades, what a item...
saved me 1.5 mil on my 1st upgrade. it will most likely save 10's of mil over the long haul.
