25 FC2_Gameface Members 82 posts 11,214 battles Report post #6 Posted January 12, 2017 Since getting all the ships from the santa boxes I've gotten Itchy and Emden a few times and then some of the more valuable ships a few more times. But it seems like the amount of times I've gotten doubloons has gone way up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps I will find out. From what I've encountered, you'll get more and more Ishizuchi's + 10pt IJN Captains. The Ishizuchi's are cashed in for 1500 doubloons. The captains sits in your reserve.

41 Lord_Adm_Nelson Members 381 posts 5,656 battles Report post #8 Posted January 12, 2017 I have all the premiums so in my boxes $3.00 I got 5 emdens in a row. It did give me a 5x free slot port and the 5x doubloon value and 5x 10 pt german commanders. Not too shabbly really I think It was about 7-8k in doubloon value.

I got 13 of the damn things and 5 Emdens. I have gotten one random Atago from a $5 last night at near my $600 mark Edited January 12, 2017 by Admiral_Ice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1,891 [-OSG-] Elo_J_Fudpucker Members 2,542 posts 16,600 battles Report post #10 Posted January 12, 2017 the answer is ... Emden , 50 ESCL and 1kDblns... ( should have sold the Tirpitz) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
744 Admiral_Ice Beta Testers 2,319 posts 9,297 battles Report post #11 Posted January 12, 2017 (edited) the answer is ... Emden , 50 ESCL and 1kDblns... ( should have sold the Tirpitz) If you sell the Tiritpz and have all other ships and buy several or more $3 box, there is a good chance you will get duplicates Tirpitz as RNG and the server algothrim will have to automatically give you the Tirptiz. I did it a few times and racked in the Doubloons and some guys have gotten 3 or 4 at a time. But again, its totally RNG and no gaurentee but the more you buy, better chances of duplicate Tirpitz income Edited January 12, 2017 by Admiral_Ice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

54 [VOP] derbuckeye Members 420 posts 4,543 battles Report post #14 Posted January 12, 2017 Congrats on all the LOOT!! I had an amazing haul myself. 10 premium ships including both Holy Grails (Nikolai and Grem). Only duplicate ship I got was in the crate WG sent to everybody. Emden, which I've had since last year. Sweet, I now have a 10pt captain to skipper Graf Spee. I also got 270 days worth of premium time, tons of signals, camo and various other goodies. I also received enough dubloons from crates which I used to convert ship XP to free XP. I now have the Missouri. Santa, RNGesus, and people who sent me crates were ALL very kind. Not too shabby for $100 spent, and I sent a Lot of crates out to a few friends and quite a few forumites. This event was a lot of fun. The crates I sent out also seemed to do well. So far as I Know, I gave out 3 x Warpite, 1 Kutuzov, 1 Atago, and a whole lot of other goodies. Well played WG! I got everything I wanted and so much more. If I was to buy or receive more Santa crates, then what would I want? More port slots, premium time and 10 point captains please!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Higher chances you will get something nicer with $3 boxs, even if its just ocean camo or 25x dragon flags or possibly 1,000 doubloons which I got at least 12-15 of. So do at least $12 worth Edited January 12, 2017 by Admiral_Ice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I kept getting Emdens with the $3 boxes so I stopped buying. If I would have seen some of the more rare ships still popping up, I would have continued buying for the gold but it just wasn't worth it to get more Emdens and even more German Captains.

Your forgetting all the port slots you get with them on top of free german captains that can be used for new ships that saves you time from making 10 points vs from start. If you go to the $5, you get the Izchuchi which is what I got 13 freaking times lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1 VonHeidler Members 19 posts 957 battles Report post #21 Posted January 14, 2017 (edited) how often do the emdens drop ? so far it seems out of 3x$3 boxes I have only got dragon flags and camo as I am just starting the 10 point captain is of great appeal .... could always get lucky and get an arizona which would be perfect Edited January 14, 2017 by VonHeidler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you want to know what I've spent on santa boxes we'd both puke. Did I get more than what I spent? WOW. Hard to say if there are valuable things I never would have spent real money on. But I got ALL the ships available in the Santa boxes, about $300 worth of doubloons, thousands of ocean soul, gamescon, halloween, new year, whatever else camos, about 800 dragon flags. I went from a few ships in my port to over 30 with too many 10pt captains to keep busy. I used some of my doubloons to buy 1 year premium, some to get a saipan, and I still have over 60K. The Gremy and Nikoli are a riot to play. Super fun ships I use to defuse after a few bad high tier games. Tirpitz is an XP and credit machine. I didn't get there on $50. Not. Even.

25 FC2_Gameface Members 82 posts 11,214 battles Report post #25 Posted January 14, 2017 If you sell the Tirpitz you will get more Tirpitz. If I had more money to spend I might just try this. I actually sort of did, and it seems to be true. I started by selling something I was willing to spare, the Atlanta. I got 3 $3 boxes and first up was an Atlanta. I got brave and tested it with my Atago, and in 3 $3 boxes I got no ships. I sort of panicked and bought 5 $3 boxes and got an Atago, but no dupes. Pretty sure if you're willing to spend a little cash this trick will work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
