Well, it's an improvement, but i wouldn't go that far to break out the champagne and the cigars for it... Looking at the last Trade Bars count from lockboxes, i'm also sceptical if enough Trade Bars will come from those new lockboxes.
And not to forget the other "loot" in it: + Ensorcelled Arsenal + Companion Fortification Kit + Trove of Elemental Evil + Genie's Gift which probably have a much higher chance to drop, then any of the "Glorious Resurgence Packs"...
I'm still going to get them for my daily ViP keys, but that's it. But i'm not going to buy any extra lockbox keys anymore. That train has left the station with Elemental Evil...
Totally obvious cash grab, but since lockboxes are part and parcel to Neverwinter, at least it's got options.

I am totally going to stock up on as many of these as possible, and use my free VIP key on these every single day, lol. Looking forward to trying to get something fantastic.

I think if they added one more prize bag in this for the generic things and let you choose from that, I think this would be a win all around.
They have the legendary mounts in a bag, and the purple mounts and companions in a bag and allow you to pick. Put all the junk items in another bag, and let us pick there. Do I want a Genie, an Idol, a CFK....I think doing it that way would be the icing on the cake and I could pick what I am looking for.
If they added this with the same drop rates as the original boxes (or the highest of them..whatever), they could clear the database of the millions of lockboxes people have stored. As long as ALL items that were previously available are in it, and if you can pick from those also, winner winner chicken dinner.

I still have stacks of all the lockboxes ever released in the game. I hoard things... At the moment I'm using my keys on the lockbox containing the Tenser's Floating Disc, I forget the name, but I have opened over 100 of them and have not got anything epic or legendary yet. In fact my best 'rewards' have been idols. Still I will continue to open that specific lockbox in the hope of one day getting something cool - just bought Kessell's Spheres on AH coz I was tired of getting mostly rubbish from the lockboxes. At least I can buy 2 Dusk Armor pieces for both my HRs when Mod 8 drops
Our pain is self chosen.

...is a great Idea IMHO. Proof of having listened. Kudos and thanks, Strumslinger!
If there's no hidden trap attached (like only one TarmaBar per box) this is best invention in this game since sliced bread...
...wait?!? Oh, well...
Keep on listening! (e.g. re. AD cost rescaling, AD income, SH infiniGrind - esp. re. small Guilds, nag, nagnagnagnag...) :^D
