Arhangelos Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 I had 670 snowflake crystals from last year so I turned them into 67 snoballs, got my 2 free and opened it. I ended up with 3x prisms (aka +10 snowballs). These are the rewards I got. 1) The ancient transform isn't really that big of a thing. 2) The ultimate engraved manastone is a selectable one so that really worth a ton (too bad it will most likely fail to socket). 3) BUT those 1.000 spirit fragments made the day, I previously bought items from broker to extract, and it cost me about 2m per fragment, that is a good 2 billion reward right there (even though I have little to no use of them now since I am done with gear) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot to check exactly how it worked to draw statistics for the items upon failing before +7. But I have 67 coins. Every failed snowball would give me 1 of these: 1x wintry coin or 1x ice shard or spirit fragments (5x if I remember). If you fail a +7 or +8 you get 1 for sure (along with other rewards) and if you fail a +9 it gives you 3x (along with other rewards). And when you open a +10 one it it doesn't give a coin at all. So from 69 snowballs I ended up with 67 coins. ## And to do some math, if you have 12 character in your account 76+ lvl, you can get 12x2=24 snowballs per day and for the whole event 672 snowballs just by the daily quest. If you are a prestige user you can get an additional +6 per day per account so that is 6x28 days = 168 snowballs. Total so far is 840. So if you want the legendary transform you have to either be luckier than me or do a lot of pve instances with your main and alts to get the extra coins OR buy some snowballs from BCM (or buy them from BCM-> broker) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure this will be a big fat p2w event and I am ok with it because this means money to the company and happy players. People already ask for a ton of icy shards in game, I made the mistake to sell mine for 4m each (I had like 4 of them or something) because last year they were worthless and I just didn't wait to see their prices, but they do go for quite a good amount, so I'll make some profit of those. 1k fragments sounds good but at some point they might be redundant, like I already have 4,5k of them and i am already full T2+15 so it is not like I make a big use of them. I did use plenty during the XP event because of the bobonerk gems. Sure thing they are welcome for future patches and gear upgrades. What skill does the wise dragon weapon give?

If it is the HP restoration buff then it can be used without skinning it to the active weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haniya-DN Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I had a little extra BC coin leftover so I went ahead and bought a Brilliant Fragment- gave me 1k frags, which I am stupidly happy about I've seen some really nice results from people who have invested in the Brilliant Fragments so if you have spare BC coin or spending money for Christmas, I think it's worthwhile to try your luck- just make sure you're buying the fragments not the snowballs!

He shouldn't, he could have gotten 100x ones directly with the same money, he would only need to buy the icy shards from broker to combine.

I bought the snowballs to get 1000 wintry coins and as many Icy shards the first time around. Here is another 250$ with a few more snowballs I bought to get to 1000 wintry coins to get the legendary xform, and opening 70 prisms. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/520519774 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Secret Cow Level Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Frozen Magic Event 2019 Gacha Probabilities Spreadsheet It's a work of progress. So far I have compiled everyone's Brilliant Ice Prism posts, Unbeatable-KT's first twitch stream, and my own 164 snowballs (about 70-ish of them from last year). Snowballs bought from BCM and snowballs acquired in-game (daily quests, instances, and Prestige AFK rewards) are different items: BCM snowballs can be listed on the broker In-game snowballs cannot be brokered It seems like in-game snowballs have a lower success rates than BCM snowballs. Out of 164 in-game snowballs I ran, only 1 made to +10. Bad RNG perhaps? Keep on the data coming in. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arhangelos Posted December 15, 2019 Author Share Posted December 15, 2019 Opened 94 new snowballs on my main (gathered them form alts every day), so I got less than my first try. Only 2 became +10, less icy shards too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arhangelos Posted December 15, 2019 Author Share Posted December 15, 2019 Opened another 96 on another alt account. This time a little better. I had 7x +9 and only 2x became +10 :/. But wintry coins always kinda go close to the original snowballs' number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
