WG, in theory has fixed the drop mechanic that gave multiples of the same ship in the same purchase. This likely means that the doubloon value ships are going to be the original "Brotherhood of Santa Claus" ships that are mentioned not the ones that are possible. So selling you the highest value ship and then buying more boxes likely isn't going to get you as many doubloons as last year. Also unlike last year where you could specify the number of crates you wanted to buy, this year they're available in 1x 5x and 20x bundles only. The 5x and 20x bundles are discounted between 11% and 25% depending on the Captain/Commodore/Admiral boxes. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure about those ships mentioned in the boxes, last year you could have get multiple of those even if you bought them one by one. No Gremlin and ImpNiko?

201 [NEMO] Thraxian [NEMO] Members 823 posts 10,988 battles Report post #5 Posted December 20, 2017 So, compared to last year, there are fewer rare ships available (Gremy and Nikolai), and the doubloon rewards for duplicate ships are going to be lower...

272 [WOLF5] h9k_a Members 955 posts 51,701 battles Report post #8 Posted December 20, 2017 Oh and they did confirm that the containers that you get in the battle of the north cape campaign ARE New Years Crates. So you can earn 3 for each final task + 1 for the Duke specific mission so you can potentially earn 17x. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

270 [BONKZ] Kevs02Accord [BONKZ] Members 1,629 posts 17,069 battles Report post #12 Posted December 20, 2017 Interesting. If this holds true, I like the reduced variability in what can drop. I got some amazing deals out of all the crates, but was really disappointed by some of the 5 dollar crates. It also really helps to know what can drop, that way you can target specific types of crates based on what you need, ie, eco flags, special flags, higher value ships etc....

6,777 [SIM] SkaerKrow Members 6,307 posts 10,286 battles Report post #24 Posted December 20, 2017 Huh, I have everything except Okhotnik and Alabama, and those are coming to the tech tree, so I don’t really need any loot crates. I may buy a few for a laugh, but my status as Lord of the Whales makes this a little less enticing. That said, last year’s crates were *very* good to me, and I hope that they treat you lot very well.

I might just collect my North Cape crates, and skip buying any this year. Well maybe some $1 just for premium, or signals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
