After that, start lowering that number until you don't spend any more. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

256 [WG-CC] Sharkbait_416 [WG-CC] Wiki Editor, Members 855 posts 9,538 battles Report post #8 Posted January 12, 2017 I spent $50 on boxes, and to be frank I didn't need to. I already had the armada bundle, and owned Niky and Gremy. I bought in when they first came out with the slight hope of getting Flint, Kami R, Ark B or Iwaki A (fat chance) but since rare prems were dropping at a high rate (this was with in the first few hours they were out) I bought in. I got about $80 worth of stuff. Personally, I wouldn't buy any more of these boxes. Im saving money for upcoming premiums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

410 [PLPTR] Cpt_RickSchwifty [PLPTR] Beta Testers 1,252 posts 6,360 battles Report post #19 Posted January 12, 2017 Fortunately for me (in a way I guess) the rewards I got for the first 20 boxes I bought were so disappointing that I have not been compelled to purchase anymore. Im probably one of the few out there that actually LOST money on these boxes, as in the stuff that I got from them could have been purchased directly from the shop for less money than I spent. As such I am having ZERO issues not buying anymore of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

743 [CAST] Murcc [CAST] Members 2,844 posts 12,007 battles Report post #21 Posted January 12, 2017 Yeah. I had a few nice ships out of the boxes up until the last day. Then bought a few on the first day of the extension and scored an Arizona, and Anshan in my first 2 of 3. So, it fueled the fire a bit and I bought some more. I tend to buy in groups of 3. When I buy two successive groups of 3 that don't produce ships, I stop. I will sometimes buy again the next day. If I produce a ship in my first purchase of 3 boxes, I continue following the same procedure. My average is a ship every 3 boxes. I started originally buying $5 boxes when the santa boxes first started, but switched over to $3 boxes. The ship drop was just as good in the $3 boxes, but the other items had larger values in the $5 boxes. Since the extension of the Santa boxes, I have gotten: Arizona Blyskawica Marblehead Atago Mikhail Kutuzov Murmansk Anshan Lo Yang Scharnhorst Atlanta I already had the Tirpitz, Warspite(x2 = doubloon value for 1), Texas, and Ishitzuchi from the few boxes I had purchased previously, and a few more from the contests over the past year. Now, do I keep my wallet locked away, or do I continue in hopes of getting a couple more, especially the 1 or 2 of the coveted ships that are unavailable through purchase? Oh, the conflict. The other big problem I have is that my port is so full of ships that I haven't sailed, that I can't pick which ship to try. Plus I want to finish my grind to the Yamato and only have a few more games to go. Argh!!! So many decisions. Damn you Wargaming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

65 [42] Captain_Chaos_NA Members 543 posts 6,806 battles Report post #25 Posted January 12, 2017 I personally think the gift boxes were the best idea they ever had. A great way to show appreciation to other players we play with. Did start some gifting wars but it was all good fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
