So after reading this thread, I discarded my blue, non-consumable Alliance Battle Horn so that I could manually open the account bound chest I was not being able to open due to a supposed duplicate item, but did not receive another Horn. Now I have neither a token, nor a blue non-consumable Alliance Battle Horn.
For what it's worth in tracking down wtf is bugged.
Ran cta on 4 toons, all received the unique Alliance Battle Horn, only one received once. In other words 3 had the Only One Unique Item Message. The one toon that didn't get that message got the token on the 11th run.
The other 3 didn't.
And I hope this piece of advice helps, hire a QA team.
So I did the CTA 10+ times with four different toons. None received token. Logged for a bit, came back on did it 2x with last toon I did it with and a token showed up. Went back and tried with other 3 toons and still no token. Almost like it is a queue problem....
Going to try and log again for a bit and see what happens when I come back on.
30+ runs on main and 13+ on alt - both got double message - both have no token, also when you receive a double prize message game count another attempt to open a box as subsequent succesfull run - My alt skipped from 8 to 10 with it resulting with not receiving a token.
Really Cryptic? I start to wonder if you are able to do anything without serious hamsterup...
I just finished running 11+ CTAs on each of three characters, two of whom did not receive the Token. The only similarity I can see between these characters is the two who did not receive the token did receive the blue Alliance Battle Horn, and the character who did receive the token did not get the horn.
However, I did have to relog after each got to ten completions, and then run the CTA again.
Edit: My wife just ran the CTA on two characters, one of whom received the blue Horn and one of whom did not. Again, the one who did not receive the Horn received the Token, and the one who received the Horn did not get the Token.
The same sadistic skirmish 10 times? Who gets paid to think this stuff up? I did Storm Front once as my ranger and got an Alliance Battle Horn shown as a "limited event item" BoP. This item when used increases Action Point Regen +32% and Power +4000 for 60 seconds. I didn't see it listed anywhere on the event description. I would never run the same skirmish 10 times in a day, even if I was not insane. However if there are more hidden event items in this, I would like to know where they hide the list?
So after reading this thread, I discarded my blue, non-consumable Alliance Battle Horn so that I could manually open the account bound chest I was not being able to open due to a supposed duplicate item, but did not receive another Horn. Now I have neither a token, nor a blue non-consumable Alliance Battle Horn.
CTA season is great and the players love it.
Not that it helps you now, but you just need to keep clicking the chest. It appears to be rolling for rewards each time you open it, so you click it until it rolls a reward that doesn't include a duplicate unique item.
