what are you doing? selling for the 8 or 32 trade in or just opening them straight up. I know selling them is probably better odds of money straight up.. but it seems like you can get a lot of useful things from the pouches.

going from a straight up AD return it seems like opening alot is better odds. than opening one for 8. but when you factor in the slightly better other contents.. I don't know which is better. what kinds of things are you getting if you are opening the more expensive ones? is it a waste of time or better quality?

    Without having the numbers for the odds of payouts it's hard to know. I doubt the designers would make the individual coins have a better payout than if you combined 32 of them. .... But then again, these developers have a lot of issues with math and statistics.

    lol yes they do. atm I've settled on the 8 coin box. middle ground. hoping for dragons eggs but dunno maybe should just sell em. on the other hand I'm rich at the moment, and opening things is much more fun.

    There were some rng-tests done on Purse and Strongbox, check these out:

    Last time I checked I came to the conclusion that selling purses was the best alternative. :)

    Also, the RNG tests are severely outdated.

    hah, that's funny. nice to know i'm consistent. I came to my same conclusion last time and forgot about it. maybe out of date but from opening the unearthed drop box a few months ago those numbers seem about right. same for the coin purses and boxes i've opened so far from the waukeen event. they don't have the 32 cost one listed though that I see. Dragons eggs are indeed a reward with decent odds. I need moar!!

    yeah In hindsight I'm regretting not selling instead of opening. I got a lot more dye packs and pantaloons than professions stuff. I did get 40 or 50 k so that's something. in farming I also leveled rank 2 times got 60k from one exp rank and got a power point and a bunch of lvl 6's as well as fully restocking my gold coffers for moving around enchants. LOL. and I'd never farm exp other than one of these events so all and all I've no complaints. LOL .Plus give it a month maybe I can make some money off the pants and dyes.
