Magic find and supply crates
Don’t expect to get anything good. I went last evening for 4 hours with 346% and only got 3 crates.
Edit: Other players are estimating a drop rate of tickets being less then one percent. Don’t bother with the black lion toilet, you will never get a ticket.
Sad, they could also give us a ticket for completing the story at the end, but heh Anet and their Blizzard philosophy (false friends)
400% MF and 5 crates in 3 hours.
That’s 600 gems worth of crates, I’d say the drop rate is pretty good.
does any mob drop them or only say karka?
Don’t know i got one form a reef drake (not young) and heard they drop from karkas. Also looking at what’s in there I’d say don’t buy them with gems.
Played with ~260%MF for ~3.5hrs = 0 crates

How did you manage 400% MF?
“Whose Charr is this?”- “Ted’s.”
“Who’s Ted?”- “Ted’s dead, baby. Ted’s dead.”
309% MF, 6 hours, 0 crates

all i got to say is this, we have yet to complete the whole Southsun Cove living story
it could for all we know, give us a ticket when we will those people for the last 5 achievements

Didn’t give a fused weapon ticket for Flame and Frost, just saying…

363% MF and I’ve got 4 crates so far. But only got passion flowers, passion fruits and karka shells from them. All of my crates were from event mobs – crazed karkas, champion instigator, fed-up settler.

How did you manage 400% MF?
Settler buff = 200%
Boost = 50%
Banner = 10%
Guild Buff = 10%
omom bars = 30%
Jewelery = 42%
5 runes of traveler = 50%
1 rune of the pirate = 10%
Explorer gear= 18% (I think)
Sigil of luck = 15%
Weapon = 3%
Utility slot = 20% (I think)
total = 458%
I don’t run with all of that so I am usually closer to 400% now.
Ah thanks, wasn’t in game yesterday and did not know about the settler buff.

Was casually farming karka with 3 others on the beach. All got crates except me. One guy got 3 within 30 minutes. t6 mat drops in that same timeframe averaged 3 to 5 except for me. I got 1. I was running about 350 MF. I think DR kicked in since I Ieft my toon in the Cove over night. RNG is a kitten. Anyway I got my backpacks. From now on I’ll farm the beach for an hour a day. Can’t say I was to impressed with the event so far. Anets philosophy blows in my opinion.
The DR should NOT Exist in an event like this, specially when the chest rate for any decent items IN THE CHEST is 0.001%. So like a 0.01% chest drop rate with a 0.001% skin rate, GG!
So even when I get a chest, It will be like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILwZuO8fWpM

I did a 1 hour session at karka’s yesterday and got one.
Did a 1 hour sessions at karka’s today and got one.
I had 383% magic find during both.
Does everything drop the boxes including stuff underwater, like sharks, turtles, barracuda and so on?
I had about o% magic find on and I got one box within the first hour, haven’t played it much since, but have not found any more…

Wintersday and Halloween both had a chance to give their weapons from their instance.

I got one from a reef skelk a little while ago, so I’d assume so.
Farming random mobs? OR following event? and does DR effect it?
