According to the Neverwinter page on Facebook, a new in-game event is supposed to kick off tomorrow and it was stated that more information would be coming very soon. That was yesterday [25 or so hours ago]. Is it still happening or not?

MODERATOR EDIT UPDATE:

Two words: Epic rewards.

Tymora, the Goddess of Good Fortune, has seen the bold bravery of adventurers in Neverwinter and has decided to reward the risks they took with a chance at good fortune! Starting this Friday, 7/26, adventurers may be rewarded with Gift of Tymora boxes in addition to any loot they pick up!

Begins: Friday, July 26, 2013 at 10 A.M. PDT (When is that in your time zone?)
Ends: Monday, July 29, 2013 at 10 A.M. PDT (When is that in your time zone?)

What's inside these Gift of Tymora boxes, you wonder? Rewards may be one of the following:
  • Fools' Crown of Neverwinter
  • Rare Weapon piece
  • Rare Armor piece
  • 10,000 Rough Astral Diamonds
  • Profession resources (Uncommon, Rare, or Epic)
  • Useful potions for your character level

We're excited to bring you this fun, exciting, and rewarding event for all the Neverwinter fans out there! Please note that these boxes will not drop inside Gauntlgrym because Tymora felt it a bit much to clutter the battlefield with her sparkling gifts. Are you ready to slay creatures of the Forgotten Realms for a chance at some rare drops? Let us know on the official Neverwinter forums.

    If you look at your calendar in game it tells you when it starts, which is in 5 hours 15 mins from now.

    Strangely ppl are getting the drops already from mobs in various zones.

    Ive yet to see any info on it. But it seems to have already started in some respects, at least partially. Ive been finding new loot boxes dropping within the last few hours. With some pretty nifty rewards.

    So far, the foundry is the only place I've gotten them to drop.

    They drop off mobs of your level. Been farming plenty of boxes out in Whispering Caverns. Already got the Crown.

    Yes! Go there, kill mobs at your level and get thousands of Dragon Eggs that are now cheaper and easier than ever! Why worry about the game's economy and the idiots that spend a lot on keys when everyone can have their Dragon Eggs for free???

    What does the crown do? Is it just decorative?

    Do the boxes drop of all mob types, or do they only drop of the tougher mob types?

    wish the drop rate was alittle higher as i went thru about 150 mobs before 1 would drop for me

    I would like to know if the items within the boxes are level specific. I got 5 on my L 36 GWF...is it better to move these to my L 60 cleric to open? I am guessing it is, but just curious.

    From the way it is worded I think that it is probably a good idea to open them on the highest level character you have.

    nice, last thing I did last night was buy 2 dragon eggs, then I log on to find they're a quarter of the price. And I swapped 2 gemmed pants for 2 eggs each. Gutted.

    Just decorative so far how I can tell. I got one and it shown that if I had changed my current hat with it I would lose every one of the bonuses that I had and gotten none from the crown:D

    I opened one on my level 36 character and got a blue level 60 armor.

    Best to do skirmishes, dungeons, or just solo mobs? Has to be equal lvl? Can it be higher? Anyway, where are some lvl 40 mobs? Will foundries drop boxes? Thanks.

    Oh. When does this event end? Calender is confusing and doesn't give the time.

    Most welcome and no problem! Just for reference here until news propagates to the forums, from the article:

    Please note the links to establish (When is that in your time zone?) are not active!

    I've seen people with the gear (fool's crown etc) but have totally failed to see any boxes. Am lvl 60, tried Whispering and cleared everything in zone 1 - nothing. Not even on nailing the driders. Tried Helm's for a giggle, great fun but no boxes. Drop rate?
    Are these only happening during missions? Or lvl appropriate areas?
    Sorry, unless there is more news I'm missing, cannot find the answers to this.

    I did aoe graveyard foundry mission with CW. Had 2 alts logged in. Probably just chance but my level 7 got 6 boxes in one instance, and the 2 level 60s got 3 between them. Alts don't have to do anything, just swap to them once stuff dead. Used to do this for valindra's invasion as well.

    Basically killing ogres increases chance of drops as they are tough mobs to fight. AOE farming them is easy with singularity+shield.

    I got mine while doing Foundries, but supposedly any area with level appropriate mobs will do.

    People are running Foundries to get boxes to drop because that way the mobs are always an appropriate level.
