historical/comprehensive list of all NW lockboxes

grrowler

is there a historical/comprehensive list of all NW lockboxes that have ever been released since the start?

the neverwinter wiki has a page, but it (like most other NW wiki pages) has not been updated for a while (since 2022 it seems).

https://neverwinter.fandom.com/wiki/Lockbox

was wondering if players had any recommendations on what lockboxes have the most desirable loot? I wish there was still an active NW blog like Neverwinter Uncensored that had tips/articles about this.
I am wondering whether it would be better to use up lockbox keys on the newer style lockboxes that have some kind of guaranteed reward after a certain threshold, or if there are any old-style lockboxes that still have interesting/desirable items in them?

(if it makes a difference, the main character that I play is a cleric arbiter/healer, and I mainly play events solo, so I do not have a lot of the premium mounts/companions)

You need to know what you want. You can check the lockbox listed in AH to see if anything specific you want to get. The old lockbox has old stuff that is mostly out-of-date and even obsolete. If T-bar is what you want to get, old lockbox may have a better yield. Other than that, I can't think of what else is worthwhile.

On the other hand, if you have old lockbox on hand, you should know what they can provide.
If you don't have old lockbox, do you really want to buy them from AH?

If you are looking for premium mount or companion, it would be account wide mythic grade and they are in new lockbox.

Sometimes an old lockbox is a way to get a specific mount or companion (thinking of companions like succubus or spined devil). It might suddenly become attractive if they make favourable updates to an old companion.

Also, old lockboxes can be the only way to get some items that have otherwise been removed from the game, like elemental weapon sets, or mounts with unique appearances (savage polar bear?).

One problem is that the older lockboxes dropped packs (like a mount pack or an artifact pack) and unless there is one on the auction house, you can't tell what might be in them.

Either way... trying to get a specific reward from lockboxes is always a long shot... when I'm wondering what to open, I usually end up saving the keys. We'll have a new lockbox next week!
