Hey
@ambassadorkael#6946
What's going on with lockboxes?
There's a news article up today saying that 2 days ago an infinity box rerun started, and the infinity box is back in the dil store, but it doesnt have the kelvin ships in it like the next infinity box was meant to.
Its awfully early to be retiring the Sphere builder box.
Is there a new regime with lockboxes, what gives?

I was about to post about this too. Seems really early...
Don't let them promote you. Don't let them transfer you. Don't let them do anything that takes you off the bridge of that ship, because while you're there... you can make a difference.

If the infinity box is coming, that means the contents of the Kelvin lockbox* should be available in the infinity boxes now given one in-between lockbox season has passed.
*corrected for accuracy
Also, the "well you've opened it, now pick an item" sub-boxes have auto-updated in the past. Ones I know I've partially opened before Nakhul toys were added to the list now allow me to make nakuhl choices, so if the Infinity boxes HAVE already been updated, all you need to do is check your choices for those intermediate boxes and see if anything has been added to the list.
In fact, I'll go do so now, as I've got a couple of unassigned weapon choice boxes and if Kelvin stuff is added I should see a Phaser Emitters checkbox at the end of the list.
One sec.
Confirmed - existing console, trait, and weapon choice infinity sub-boxes are NOT offering Kelvin Lockbox options.
The dates on the Infinity Lockbox are now updated in the blog. The box began dropping today and will go away on the 28th. Have a great rest of your Thanksgiving!

Mine have in the past. No comment on if that will continue to be true. For example I recently got one of the "lesser tier 5 ship" boxes. I'm just gonna sit on it until the Sphere Builder stuff is moved into the Infinity boxes so I can pull one of the little Sphere Builder frigates out of it. That's more useful to me than any of the currently available choices.
It seems like they just keep one item file for the box and each sub-box: the current table. Not infinity box 16Q2, infinity box 16Q3, infinity box 16Q4, etc. Probably a lot less strain on the database that way. If they have to fix a goof, it fixes everything in one pass instead of having to retroactively fix old versions one at a time by hand.

The next updated Infinity Lockbox will probably roll out a week and a half before whatever is coming as the new content release around the time of the Anniversary Event. That will most likely be then followed by a totally new Lockbox. THAT Infinity Lockbox will contain the Kelvin Lockbox stuff.
This mini-Infinity Lockbox 'Event' will also serve to further keep prices of ships, including that Jem'hadar stuff down.

I know this because I opened rougly 60 boxes and got 2 T6 Infinity Prize Packs. At this time I have not seen any option to get a Keldon or either of the Jem ships mentioned in blog.

It's actually really odd the way the T6 prices have shot up over 200m when they used to hover round the 150m price. The infinity box should have lowered the prices, it's done the opposite.
I can only imagine it's because everyone picked the Keldon or T6 Jem'hadar ships and the other ships are lacking in supply.
Yes that is what i suspected. Only the less desirable ones like the Benthan cruiser and the Denuos are dirt cheap now (relative to the others).
The price will probably stabilize somewhere eventually once all the older ships are re-released.
There is a fairly consistent pricing on the exchange though, T5 prize ships are around the 50-100M marks now, T6 prize ships are between 180-300M and the Lobi ships hover around 250M generally. The only exceptional prices are the promo ships and the latest lockbox ships that haven't reached the infinity box yet (apart from the Denuos for some reason).
