Not sure how many of you are doing Cube of Fate. Lately PW is promoting to doing so.
Well just for your information some personal statistics:
Golden Box - 10% chance of Ecstasy Card (1mill coins)
90% sadness card
3 Ecstasy cards and 97 sadness = 3% drop rate b:sad
Sundries Packs got only Mirage celestones .. paying 200K coins for 3 mirage is a bit expensive PW !! 0% drop rate b:shocked
Cube Crate is same only Mirage celestones and again 0% drop rate b:shocked
Well PWI what do you say ??
Fix your game or change your statistics !!!
Do something for players not for your gread

    I think your luck is pretty poor. But who opens golden/plat boxes anyway!? b:shutup

    Exactly.. I open them when my finances can cover the potential loss. Else I sell them back at entrance. In sundries pack, you also have a chance to get 1 mil or 5 mils. And if you have a lucky run, you won't get any "bad" rooms (Requiring you to either pay or use do-alls) and end up using maybe 30 ish dice tickets to basiccly get "free exp/spirit".

    If u are 90+, you will also get a Page of Fate at the end, you can either save 30 to make your own skill books (saving cash) or sell them 400-550k depending on your server's economy.

    You can also go extra rooms starting lvl 80+ but if you don't have deep pockets, not a nice place. not very worthy anyway except if you are planning to go for the cog or coin.

    95+ is better to do rooms 51-60 as you get book credit cards from most rooms and 10 makes either a page of fate or old book page.

    Have fun :)

    Fix what?

    The boxes are statistically break-even, which means you're not losing anything.

    Pshaw, you earn 0.9 coins per box, on average.

    The boxes are alright as they are.

    It's 10% chance to win 1 mil. So yeah they well calculated.

    You open 10, costs you 1 mil , even if just 1 outta 10 gives u 1 mil, u break even like someone said.

    Of course ur not seeing the platinium boxes.. 1 chance outta 50 to win 5 mils.

    So statisticly speaking, if u hit all 3 "lucky rooms". Costs you 300k, you have a chance to walk out either with :

    - 3 coins
    - 2 coins and 1 mil
    - 2 coins and 5 mils
    - 1 coin and 2 mils
    - 1 coin and 6 mils
    - 8 mils

    Or, if u keep all 3 boxes and sell them, You will actually make profit. People buy the golden around 115k average, and the platinum around 250k. so, you spend 300k, either risk it, or make a sure 180k profit or so and let others test thier luck

    Your choice :)
    Proud supporter of the new expansion. Sure it has it's share of bugs, like any games. But for a pure farmer/grinder, that's a whole lot of new mobs to go beat up b:chuckle

    Oh?

    An Ecstasy Card costs 100k from Cube and has a 10% chance of 1,000,000 coins.
    An Excitement Card costs 100k from Cube and has a 2% chance of 5,000,000 coins.

    Those are break-even odds. Or am I missing something?

    Sadness cards are worth 1 coin, right?

    The Ecstasy box (whatever it's called) would give a return of 0.9 coins, on average.

    The boxes you open from cube are a gamble, if you don't like it, sell the boxes (if you're smart you will)
    Oh and sundrise pack doesn't only give mirage, it can give 3 mirages, or 10 dice ticket, or 2 do all cards, or 1m card, or 5m card. Just the percentage to get mirages from it is high, 60% if I'm not mistaken.
    Cube crate gives either a mirage or a dexterity badge(5%chance) don't expect anything else.

    Happy cubingb:cute
