Mostly asked out of curiosity, i know how rng and drop ratios work :P.. Like on rs 07 getting a draconic visage is 1:5k, got one in 625 kills, some people havent had one in 10k kills even though the average drop rate is 1:5k
The thing about it is that opening more boxes increases the odds of getting something desireable but every individual box you open has a 1:2k chance of being legendary no matter how many you open. all things considered that's not a bad drop rate. Previous opened boxes do not effect your odds of getting a legendary, each box opened is an individual instance
yes, and i have read alot about opening lockboxes and it seems the consensus is to open a lot at one time, instead of opening 1 a day (VIP). Which you can still use your VIP keys, just wait until you have 30+ i would say. I try to wait until i have around there sometimes a little longer and then open all at once.
On another note, i am not sure value wise which is the best lockbox. I would be interested in finding that out as well. I would assume over the long haul it would be Resourgence, since you have multiple good Epic/Legendary packs that sell for a good Ad amount. It seems most lockboxes have the Legendary part down but many Epics sell for cheap... Like the Giant lockbox at the moment, i got the Manticore companion the other day and was soooo excited i got an epic companion, then checked AH and the thing goes for like 50k AD on PC... So i would try and look at avg AD price on AH vs drop rate to figure out a general value. The Neverwinter Wiki has some drop rates listed.
