I decided to be stupid and buy 1000 dragon coffers (Roughly 40 gold) and somehow, I ended up with quite a lot. I see some right horror stories on this forum, stories of people opening 2100 + with no ticket in sight, it’s unfair for you guys and i’m sorry I can’t do much to help ya there, but keep at it, it’s only like, day three so far? You’ve got yourself a whole month for these bad boys, they’ll come soon enough, enjoy!

Heres a video of me opening them, sped up the opening bit to save you the mental torment I went through!

Ouch, thats real bad luck sweetie! If I could give you my third ticket I would, I have no idea what I should use it on to be honest, I got a Sword and Greatsword myself. Good luck anyway, you still got a whole month, keep it up!

that’s not really bad luck, it’s pretty average luck. most people are getting them in between 1/500 and 1/1000 coffers.

I think I have opened about 300-400. So far:

A ton of candy, didn’t count it all yet but probably over 1,000
6 Mini Holographic Risen Knights
Some potions that when I drink turn into some fire bat, 4 I think
A bunch of fireworks
20 some cakes that look like lobsters
Some other cakes
A Deep cherry dye
Some other stuff I don’t remember.

I farmed or just got from playing so I didn’t keep a good count/list.

My advice is that since we have a whole month, don’t buy the coffers from the trading post right now. Just open the ones you loot and maybe later in the month you can consider buying them if you have had no luck.

Yeah that is what I do and I’ve gotten a decent amount of stuff that way. Almost as much as some who said they bought them, aside from the ticket. I didn’t get that yet, probably won’t

Ouch, I went about that line, I had 860gems, so I thought it was either 8 chests or 1000 or so chances, it’s still bad luck. ;~;

I sprang for 40 Rich Coffers, and got a ticket somewhere in the last 10 of those. I have no idea how many regular coffers I’ve opened since I’ve just clicked them as they dropped and haven’t bought any. No tickets in those, and 2 minis.

I really want 3 more tickets (shield and 2 pistols, do want) but will be amazed if I get even one, given my usual track record of no tickets in any event. I admit I don’t play the content all day every day of the event, either, though I am an active player logging several hours a day.

Good and bad points, as is RNG. It’s really a bummer, but I think that ANet are taking a step in the right direction. Releasing them as things that drop from just about everything helps quite a bit, still bit of a bummer due to the chance. DX

I’m considering buying +- 1000 coffers. It’s a better option than Rich coffers right?

Personally? I think regular ones are the way to go, simply because, for the same price as 8 rich coffers, you could get almost 1000 regular coffers. 8 chances with a SLIGHTLY higher chance, or 1000 chances with the usual chance.

Funny story, this is for a single item. In the old MMO I played, when upgrading armour, near +9 out of +10 (Which was the maximum you could upgrade a piece), you had a 0.03-0.05% chance of succeeding in upgrading, the upgrade itself would cost about 3,000,000 of the ingame currency, the kicker was that if the upgrade failed, you lost the item. I repeat, you LOST the item you were trying to upgrade. Now these could be work anything past One billion currency. But oh boy, they offered protection! For forty million of the currency….PER try. I get that 0.1 is a bit of a kicker, but at least i’m not losing as much as back in Flyff.

Gratz on getting your ticket! And yeah, but maybe one day it’ll be easier, heck, it’s GETTING easier to get these skins. You don’t need to buy 10 bajillion keys, and the crates are relatively inexpensive for the most part. It’s still like day four of the event, i’m sure people will get theirs as supply of crates increases and the demand decreases.

Not much, the upgrading was for aesthetics as well as stats. But it was just how the cruddy chances reminded me of it. ^^

It seems the drop rate is rougly as an estimate.

1 in 25 for Rich Coffers (4%)
1 in 1,000 for Regular Coffers (0.1%)

More than half of the people who bought 25 rich dragon coffers see to have gotten a ticket or more, and less than 1/2 got none making up for the greater half who recieved two under 25. RNG is RNG but at least it’s not as bad as the last event

Grrr…45 rich coffers; no ticket or wings.

And 3.5k regular coffers now; no ticket or wings.

But this is not suprising, I have NEVER received rare items from any of these RNG events; it seems my chance of getting this stuff = zero. sigh…
