Hope you got a TOS Connie

I bought a total of 25 R&D boxes. Opened 2 of them to get my Lobi up to 450, and sold 23 today for from 19-21 million. Made enough to get a Vengeance, and enough Lobi to get the cross-faction bundle to sell, so I'm pretty happy.
I hope some of my 23 sold boxes won some folks a Connie (I really do.)

How did you use the R&D promotion? How did you make out? Did you get what you wanted accomplished?

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.

    I opened 4 of them, got nothing besides lobi and mats just as I expected. I never win contests.

    I sold a couple more for EC when I was buying the Herald ships (Quas, Vonph, Baltim) off the exchange after I decided I'd rather have 6 different lock box / lobi ships than 1 T6 Connie.

    Opened a bunch but got no Connie. The game doesn't let me sell stuff on Exchange, but I got 3 more unopened boxes to test my luck. What? I can quit any time I want. :*

    FYI, You can buy a credit cap unlock in the C-Store, Then you can have up to 1 billion credits per character.

    The ship I wanted was released with the Kelvin Lockbox (Vengeance.)

    Since I didn't want the Ship and I don't need EC for anything right now, I happily just skipped the entire thing.

    I certainly have enjoyed all the forum meltdowns though, that has provided countless hours of entertainment. :)

    Got one on my 13th pack. Was actually after the lobi, but now my Temp Agent has a good ship.

    I so wanted the Vengeance, but I honestly don't miss it after deciding to skip it entirely.

    I only value ships at £25($30) per account unlocked ship, so while I would have loved to own it, I would have never been able to decide which character got it...

    So, I picked up the Vengeance, Wells, Tarantula, and Paradox, plus Lockbox Traits and Boff Manuals, to name a few things. All from selling R&D Promo Packs and Keys.

    I will wait for the second to next iteration of the Infinity Lockbox for the Kelvin Constitution. The Daemosh, Aeon, and the Mobius will complete the ships I want for my Temporal Recruit.

    I bought 23000 Zen with the expectation of getting the TOS T6 Connie & Zahl Cruiser. Mission accomplished with lots of change left over.

    I wasn't allowed the T6 Connie and didn't want the T6 T'liss, so I couldn't care less.
  • drakethewhitedrakethewhite Member Posts: 1,240 Arc User
    Got my Connie on the 7th box, my son got his T'liss on his 3rd. As far as I'm concerned, we won STO.

    I won a promo ship on maybe my 12th box. Sold it. No regrets.
    When you see "TRIBBLE" in my posts, it's because I manually typed "TRIBBLE" and censored myself.

    I didnt get any this year but when they were doing the sheshar I bought 4 boxes and got two ships
  • gofasternowgofasternow Member Posts: 1,390 Arc User
    I sold 25 of those things, got me a Kelvin Connie and outfitted it and a few other ships with the money

    I don't even want to think about what I had to do in order to get my TOS Connie. I'm just happy I have it and let's never speak of it again haha.

    In all seriousness though, Cryptic definitely got their blood from me.
