Did any one get more then 700 Rad from the purses? I opened 100 of them and never got more 700 for a chance at up to 8.5 k I never got higher then 700 sometimes 2 in arow. Really fells like false advertising but could be RNG being cryptic.

Only AD I got was 250 from a bag. From the boxes I got two pairs of pantaloons, about 200 of those **** coins I didn't want, 2 dragon eggs and 2 marks of gratitude. Oh well, at least the dragons eggs sell for some AD.

I saved up and bought about 9 of the 8-purse boxes - got 5k RAD from a few of them, 40 coins, 2 pantaloons, and other assorted profession resources...

I opened 7 treasure chests and got 6 chests of 32 coins and 1 chest of 22k RAD.... The coins are useless to me as I have already gotten all the transmutes from the previous time.....they are not that nice anyway....smh....
After the first day I didn't even bother farming it. Opened three chests, one strongbox and three purses:
Chest: Golden Pantaloons, 32 coins, 32 coins. They're on my TR. The TR transmute is ugly and my weapons are already changed with paid transmutes to the tune of 102k AD, not happening. TR already got them last year, has never worn them. At least they're BoE this time so I can send them to my halfling GWF who can't wear any female bottom with a skirt because halflings have <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> scaling and skirts stick a foot+ into the ground. Nothing to be done about the ridiculous shiny, but better than the ugly peasant pants.
Strongbox: ...Another pair of pants. I only have two female chars, and my CW got them last time. The male version is hideous. Derp.
Purses: Potions, 700 RAD, more potions.
Last time I got the pants twice, a bunch of coins, and a metric boatload of RAD plus a couple of Dragon Eggs.
Just like Tymora 2.0, Waukeen 2.0 is a dismal, disappointing failure not worth doing. Fortunately the cloak is cheap on the AH, that's the one thing I didn't get last time. :P
Dearest Cryptic: These events were popular the first time for a reason, they gave actual rewards and were worth farming. The massively nerfed redos are not worth farming, and having been around the first time, the contrast is massive and feels like a slap. 'Hey remember that thing that was awesome the first time? We brought it back! ...Except we might have completely made it not worthwhile. You're happy right?' No.
I stopped bothering to farm them after I opened my first batch of boxes and it was clear the event had been wrecked due to the drop rates being over nerfed. After that just logged on as usual did my dailies and a few HE's and logged off ,pointless event is pointless , so sad considering the first time the event ran I stayed logged in on average 8 - 10 hours a day farming , this time maybe a hour and a half then log off .

Guessing you didn't play the first time the event ran , if you did then you would get what they are talking about , the earning potential of this event has been nerfed into nothing compared to last time.
He has said he sold one belt for 500k so I'd also love a breakdown of how he has earned 2.7 million from this event considering the dreadful drop rates and badly nerfed AD payouts. Think I smell a faint aroma in the air....

Gues what i buyed my P vorpal from the first event .
I farmed 106 strongbox in this event . And all legit ppl always forget we have Gateway .
I thought there was a timer on the drop rate and you could get a bag once every minute in average...So that would mean you spent 56 gameplay hours (2.3 days) constant farming. Even playing 8 hours a day that ammounts to a week of playing the game. I am not sure I believe you, but I trust in the power of botting. Good day sir!

Eh..it seems there is a 30 second limit...., so it's "only" 28 hours .... obsessive, but possible.
If that is the hardcoded limit on drops, you still have to add to it some time to actually kill the mobs, and loot them. But I agree, even if it is lower than the info I had, it is still a rather nasty and unhealthy way to farm, the very kind of farming Bots are made for . Better off running a dungeon instead if you are a "Human being".

What do you mean farm it with companions? you mean multiclient and let your companions kill mobs over numerous accounts?

Multi account ? he? i dont understand y arc cannot open multi acc s.
No y just need a strong companion how can kill lower adds like redcaps etc,,,, then u use your mobile and go gateway and farm t6 .
You just need to watch carefully every min to not loose the bags collect it and woala .
basically he is saying using a high damage companion that doesn't die easy to farm lower level minions. Meanwhile while his minion is auto killing things he plays gateway to get more bags.
For me the Waukeen event was about farming dragon eggs and buying more cheap...
Dragon eggs are a good indicator how much loot quality has been nerfed now:
During the first Waukeen event price for dragon eggs dropped to below 20K, now it dropped from around 50K to 45K.
while the loot during first Waukeen event was op, this time it's just not worth it.
Seems to be a general pattern for Cryptic: It's either 1 or 0, op or useless.
This! I gave up on day 2 I won't even bother next event at this rate. The drop rate for eggs was nerfed to the point of making this a non-event (eggs are back to 50k already a couple days after the event) I had hoped to stock up on cheap eggs again as I had just run out seems I've wasted time

The best items I received were a couple teleport scrolls to the Moonstone Mask.

Is that rough ADs? How many chests did you open?

I farmed 106 strongbox in this event
+ and i have 10 chars bit more fantasy guys .The rest i sold it on ah also the dragon eggs .
Buying them from the AH is not farming, mate. lol
He i dont get it ? I SAY FARMED 106 Strongbox = TOTAL 3392 bags. i increased the size mybe y dont saw it .
106 strongboxes x 8 purse bags = 848 purse bags.
Not 3392 purse bags.
Fail troll is fail.
Wow, 3k Purses is a lot. I got 1k and it was a freaking pain. They sell for ~40k currently, so 106 would even be 5M+. Well done.
Yepp its my mistake i farmed 3392 bags and traded it for "this is my fault not for strongbox " for 106 Chest.
A Felltroll say to me troll well nothing to say here.....
