381x Poppy Boxes rewards statistics

[Arhangelos]

OK, so I got myself 381 poppy boxes, I did sell some when they were selling for 100m+ I did buy some when they dropped at 50m. I made MOST of them myself with my main and alts and I am a multibillionaire ingame as usually so I said "lets open them, maybe I make more profit than selling them".

Before I show you the results, I have to tell you that the first round I opened the 381 poppys, I got about 4993 poppy letters back, which was another 166 boxes and some change. From those 166 boxes, I got another 103 later on and then it was 60 and then 33 and then it went so low each time that I stopped counting, at some point for example I had 4 boxes, opened them, and 3 of them gave me letters and I ended up buying me another 8 for example. I really do not remember the amount of boxes I opened but it was a little less than 800 probably.

If I count those that I do remember: 381+166+103+60+33 then these are 743 so lets pretend I got close to 800, I could be higher than that or a little less, BUT that doesn't matter, what matters is the original 381 boxes I had.

These are the rewards I got:

• 62x <Noble +10 Manastone Bundle>
• 96x <Greater Mythic Supplements Bundle>
• 17x <Greater Felicitous Socketing Box (Mythic)> (this is the worthless 65 and lower, like 3m on broker)
• 43x <Major Blessed Augmenting Box>  (not tradeable)
• 3x <[Event] Provenance Weapon Box>
• 8x <Transcendent Thunder Dragon King Weapon Chest>
• 21x <Masterwork Apollon Accessory Chest>
• 12x <Pure Void Dragon King's Weapon Box>
• 25x <Feline Hood> (please, no more skins on events, that sell for 3m now on broker)
• 90x <Essence Core> (seriously)
• 17x <Brilliant Fire Dragon King's Weapon Box>
• 29x <Bright Water Dragon King's Weapon Box>
• 16x <Transcendent Thunder Dragon King Weapon Chest>
• 24x <Prime Royal Captain Combat Wing Chest>
• 7x <Shining Prime Royal Captain Weapon Chest>
• 17x <Shining Prime Royal Captain Armor Chest>

I made some rough calculations from the current prices, which are a little lower than normal because of the event, but I expect the prices to go higher slightly later.

So these above "worth" about 21 billion+ and I put the plus because this is an estimation with the current low prices.

21 billion /381 boxes = 55m, but since I am going to give a +20% on the prices will go upwards within the next weeks lets recalculate it

21b+20% = 25b (rounded), 25b/381 boxes = 65m each

So lets see which ones are costing more than the box itself:

Worth more than the box
Total 101 items (some are marginally more than the box, others are much more)

• 62x <Noble +10 Manastone Bundle>
• 3x <[Event] Provenance Weapon Box>
• 12x <Pure Void Dragon King's Weapon Box>
• 7x <Shining Prime Royal Captain Weapon Chest>
• 17x <Shining Prime Royal Captain Armor Chest>

Worth less than the box
Total 280 items (some are close to 55m like the sup.bundle, but I only bought a handful of boxes close to 50m, defo not 96x of them so that is a loss "| |ι || |_")

• 96x <Greater Mythic Supplements Bundle>
• 17x <Greater Felicitous Socketing Box (Mythic)>
• 43x <Major Blessed Augmenting Box>  (not tradeable, thus no price, also I had a lot of them already)
• 8x <Transcendent Thunder Dragon King Weapon Chest>
• 21x <Masterwork Apollon Accessory Chest>
• 25x <Feline Hood>
• 90x <Essence Core>
• 17x <Brilliant Fire Dragon King's Weapon Box>
• 29x <Bright Water Dragon King's Weapon Box>
• 16x <Transcendent Thunder Dragon King Weapon Chest>
• 24x <Prime Royal Captain Combat Wing Chest>

Verdict: not worth opening them, the boxes now go again for 80~90m and they will slightly increase more. If I sold all my boxes for just 80m/each, it would have been 30 billion profit and obviously it would have been easier to sell poppy boxes than trying to sell feline hood skins for 3m each, or Gr.Fel.Socketing boxes 65 and lower that sell for 3m each on broker, these SERIOUSLY are deletable items, or the 43x augmenting boxes that are untradeable, I have like a gazillion of them from other instances already.

So I was your guinea pig for today, you are all welcome, I am glad I helped, I'll go listen to sad music and cry.

The most effective way to use this event was to use extra letters to buy omegas to + up gear. If you had used the 4993 letters originally to buy omegas, and assuming 5m loss for the AP cost, you could have gotten over 400 omegas to + up gear, for 2b, when those would normally cost 40b. 

 

For example, it takes approximately 17 omegas to + 10 a Core during the power up event. So you could have +’d up approximately 20 essence cores to + 10 which would have gotten you an additional 18b approximately after costs considered for plussing them up.

This!  

Arxa, everytime you post, you're so dang salty, and clearly have way too much time.  Find a new game if it's that frustrating for you.  

I made 6bil this event, worked on a couple of alts and made major improvement to gears there ( enchants & level reductions ), and I took a 74 cleric with no DPS gear no 5.0 gear what so ever other than a AC set, and made almost a full master harvester set, and would've been a full set had I not run out of soulstones; however, all enchants done, with the cleric at mboost cap already for BoS.  This event is primarily meant to help people who haven't geared up to gear up and catch up.  Since you're already a multi-billionaire, maybe chill out while people catch up.    So sorry you didn't make any kinah.  I'm sitting tight on supplement bundles to sell back in the next week, my 6bil should turn into something like 10.  ;3

And in every post I make you come to be salty yourself with your alt accounts because you are scared to come with your main account.

I am not salty, I opened the boxes as the game intends and there were some 65 and lower rewards and I also mentioned they are not worthy, I made fun of it in the end unless you are not sarcastically savvy.

Also nobody asked you what you did with you alt cleric. I have a shitload of alts all 70+, many of them 73+, I didn't brag about it. Go play another game or whine in another post.

You are telling me about RNG and enchants and a price for +10 cores in your server which is DN. I am from Katalam and an Asmodian, do a research in prices before you come here to claim you are and Einstein of math.

Also out of the 381 boxes I opened, the 300 of them I made with letters for sure (the rest I won by luck and some I bought)

300 poppy boxes x 30 letters = 9000 letters. do your math again and do it for your server. I could have gotten more omegas in this way and then I would have flooded a dead server with +10 essence cores that would drop the prices in half because nobody takes them. Also they will be deleted in a few months and exchanged for "some" gold bars" god knows how many, but since I have seen the exchange rates of +10 manastones, omegas, tempering solutions etc in 6.0 I know for sure a +10 essence core won't really be a good exchange.

Wait, what?  I'm an alt?  This is the only account I use to post on the forum with, BB, nice try.  I'm not salty, I was just saying that not every event is about the people who have supposedly already arrived are ready for 6.0.  So rude.

You are the one who is rude coming to me telling I am salty and to go play another game. This is a post about the event and the rewards, the outcome of the event is a mixture of RNG, the reward list and the economy of my server.

I am not mad or pissed or anything, I only addressed that some rewards are pre 5.0 relevant and that the overall bad game route and the fact people are quitting it, is making the economy so low that even the good rewards didn't worth as much.

This is a post about statistics and to help other players decide what they will do with their boxes or how they will go by it. But also ti is about NCSoft putting rewards that shouldn't even be on the list. That Felicitous Socketing Mythic (65 lvl and lower) shouldn't be there, everyone would be happier if instead of that there was a random +6 manastone or something, because at least those are still relevant although low.

You come to my post with an attitude, you stir the pot and then you feel offended. No hard feelings.

Those are still relevant to socketing bracelets, aren't they? Or am I confusing it with another feli?
