Hey guys, so i was buying the loot crate today, and i found something extremely useful for those of you try to get maximum value from this event. ONLY USE THE 1000 gold loot boxes. I have gotten 3 orkans, 2 galahads, and am currently sitting on 8.7k gold, originally at 4.3k but only started using this trick with about 3k gold. The reason to only use the 1k loot boxes is the chance of getting a gold role is MUCH HIGHER since there is not possibility of getting silver in this crate. Therefore even if you are getting 600 gold a crate, you are only losing gold at a slower rate to getting nothing, and you get the special loot box so fast, you can use that as an oppurtunity to get gold or other bots. Through the special and 1k loot crates i have gotten the 4k gold, 3 2.5k golds, a couple 2k's and a couple 1k's plus the orkans, galahads and a zues (plus 2 gekkos and a pinata)
but because you have the oppurtunity to win gold at a higher rate, and the chance of you getting a large payout of gold both in the 1k box and the special box, you not only make gold but are able to have a better chance of getting better bots and weapons. Hopes this helps you guys and good luck!!!

I cannot imagine that my luck will ever be as good as yours.
So far I've spent about 4k on one Gold box and the rest silvers. I have one unneeded aphid to show for it. hahaha

I got an Aphid and 700 Au. Net loss: 550 gold. Seems like some people are more "lucky" than others.

You won't keep hitting the 2-5k gold boxes, the point is is that in getting rhe 500-1000 gold boxes more regularly than the other boxes, you will in essence be spending less gold, as you are getting more gold back than in a silver or bronze chest and getting silver. Then you just keep going until you've spent roughly 2k gold to get the special crate, which has a lot of high gold stashes to get. Basically you keep breaking out around even until you get a good round and grab a 3k gold stash in the gold chest, and say a 2k gold stash in the special one. All the while getting aphids and anciles, robots ect |

At the end of it all i got 2 anciles, 5 aphids, 3 geckos, 2 orkans, a couple throw away molots and punishers, 2 galahads, 2 jesse, 3 gepards, 2 rogatka's, a gareth, 3 zeus's all from a net loss of 3.7k gold, from using this. The point is to keep going and basically make back as much gold as possible until you hit a jackpot gold hit that recoups all your earnings, while taking advantage of any loot that you gain.

Bitten by the gambling bug, I broke down and threw in 10$ to spin one more gold chest. I was rewarded for my troubles with the very bot that I highly despise of. Considering that I had just come off an extremely frustratingly annoying string of being run over by Ancilot hoard after Ancilot hoard..... I will be fielding the Lancelot I won as soon as it's leveled up. I always said that you would NEVER catch me in one of those things as I feel any 3 year old could plod around in one just as effectively as the next, almost. I guess though, after being so beat down by the never ending onslaught of thoughtless Lancelot charges..... When the lord hands you a Lancelot. You G damned better field that mother effer and join em'!!! Not looking forward to plodding around in one with very little thought process involved.   |

maybe you can come up with a strange loadout for it that requires more thought?

VERY, VERY rare Super rare since Lance cannot carry a Pinata without a lot of duct tape! Congrats though on the spin! For the record to the OP, I think the 1000 chests are the way to go, but not as random onesies or twosies. You need to open enough at a time to get you through the occasional dry spells of aphids and 750au chests so you can reach the super chest. |

I meant Tulumbas but I think I'll stick with Pinatas because that will definitely leave a lot of thinking up to me. |

How much does Pix charge for the silver magical tape. Duct tape can do anything!
I was wondering myself when I saw the pinata listed as weapon. I have seen and tried the the orkan/taran with both Thunder & Ancile. For me it was frustrating to time and corner shoot. I also tried with (Punishers - L7), took too looong to do real damage.

I agree with OP. Gold boxes are definitely the way to go. Key is you need to make sure you have roughly 6-7k gold as reserves in case you hit a cold streak. Most rolls you will loose 50-500 gold, but the point is building the progress bar to get the super chest (7-8 gold chests). Once in a while you will hit the big payouts in the gold chests, but the super chest has the good gold boxes (2-5k gold) that will often recoup your losses (low gold payouts and when you actually get items which give no gold rebate).
I made an initial investment in the 14k gold package and had 1.5k gold in reserve, so started out with 15.5k gold. All I really wanted was my first ancilot and maybe a WW bot to play with. Each 7-8 roll cycle has been slowly bleeding me but I've gotten all kinds of stuff in the meantime. I'm currently at 12K gold remaining and I got Doc, Galahad, Lancelot, Ancile, Fury, 6 orkans, 9 geckos, zeus, 4 gepards, etc... Most cycles I'm breaking even or loosing a small amount (500-1k) gold but netting the items as I go along. I think I've played about 10 cycles (each cycle = one super chest).
To me this event is way awesome and has good payouts as long as you have enough reserves to spin though a few bad streaks.

8 1k pulls to get the gold box...
Net cost was 1400 gold for me. Got a Galahad (2500), Ancile (1500), and 2x aphid (750 each). Gold box was 4k gold which saved my 「bum-bum」 and got my gold back close to where it was. The only thing that was useful for me was Ancile.
Was hoping for a Lance, oh wells. Games's telling me I should build a second ancilot.
