I've spent $25 and opened 2xGold and a handful of Silver Chests. All I've gotten is a Gepard, some Au, and some Ag. Really, poor results... damn slot machine! Need to stop myself now, really would have liked the Scourge or the Dash MkII.

Opened my second Gold chest this morning, and the firetrucking line landed on an Aphid, RIGHT AFTER A BULGASARI. Buncha cow patties.
Kinda disappointed with my winnings so far. But I'm halfway to a Superchest...

I swore to myself I was not gonna buy more than a few key packs, and definitely was not gonna buy the $100 pack. The plan seemed fool-proof: Just buy a few of the 10 buck packs, see what came of them, then quit. But those little firetruckers are insidious, like Pringles. You guys know what I'm talking about...you do the "just one more" thing through the whole friggin' can. So, $100 in, this is what I've won: 1 Haechi - Superchest (I don't care what you think you heard, I did not 'squee!!!' I'm a middle-aged man, and middle-aged men do not 'squee!!!') 1 Galahad - Superchest 1 Gareth 1 Gepard 1 Zeus 2 Orkans 1 Trebuchet 1 Gekko 3000 Au 1 Metric butt-ton of Ag 1 Bunch of keys It was mainly an even mix of Gold and Silver chests, plus two Supers. (Can't swear to this - others will have to chime in with their thoughts - but I got the distinct impression that I reached the Superchests much more quickly than in the July event.) My feelings about this are mixed. Not happy that I gave into my gambling compulsion and spent more than I intended to. Fortunately, I stopped well before I spent myself into trouble, so that's good. Still, play with fire often enough, you'll get burned eventually, so I gotta be careful. Meanwhile, pretty pleased with my haul. The Haechi, obviously, is awesome. Soon as I bank some more silver, I'll start leveling it up and try to figure out the whole dash thing. Should probably sell the Galahad since I already won one in the last event, but every time I sell something, I end up realizing there was still a use for it, after all. Might as well just hold on to it, especially since the first Galahad is one of my favorite bots and still holds a prime spot in my hangar, even post-3.0.0. The Gareth is cool because I don't have one on my main account and have a lot of fun with it on my light- and medium-only account. Already have a Gepard, but will keep this one too...because hoarder. The Zeus is awesome since I got one from last event and was planning to buy another one for my Carnage, which I also won from the event. Just straight purchased a Rog and 2 Orkans last night (my first...of the bot and the weapons). Obviously should have waited, since I ended up winning 2 more Orkans, but from what everybody says, you can never have enough of those. Also wanted another Gekko so I'd have 4 for a Vader Patton, so yay. Since I've already got plenty of Trebs, I'll just sell...ah, who'm I kidding...I'll just hoard this one too. The Gold and Ag are already gone. Upgrade speed-ups. Good haul - on the orkans definitely not a problem having 4 - haechi will take 3 so I'm working on my 5th just to get them on a second bot

But I'm halfway to a Superchest... Yep - 5 gold chests I got lance, haechi plus Zeus then gekko and aphid. Bulgasari makes it it worthwhile though so quit while you are ahead

Someone said his feelings are mixed about chests, I share this feeling. I think they are great for people who lack some bots or gear like me.
I spent around 90$, got bulgasari, rog, carn, galahad, raijin, 2x gepard and jesse, 4 orkans, tempest, scourge, 2x gekkos, aphid, almost 16k gold - all of bots are my first, and weapon I could use. And some silver bots and weps I sold for silver. I am happy with results.
Then again, if i already owned those bots and had some gold in stash, i would feel stupid that i paid 90$ for only one new korean bot.
Now when I have all bots and weps i need, i dont think ill spend new $100s of dolars just to try to get mk2.

Being the little spinny-spinny crack addict that the Black Market is going to turn us all into, I did end up slamming down another US$100 for 13,000 more tokens.
I ended up winning about 7,000 gold, a few million silver, another Rog, another Orkan, and nothing else.
So for US$200, the only new bots/gear that I didn't already have are the two Scourges I won yesterday, and a total of 12,000 gold. I don't know how to feel about that.

Silver chest...Treb. I think I got spoiled on the Anniversary event where I won a Rog and Lancelot. The July 4th event was 700 gold and a few misc. silver weapons. Going to take it easy on this event, do some 'Zerking', grab some gold wherever I can. I still have to give Pixo credit for doing this. Best game app on my phone. Brings back some good Mechwarrior memories.

So it seems if you buy 13,000 keys you are likely to end up with one dash on average and a bunch of other stuff. If you get two dashes you are lucky and if you get none you are unlucky. This means the price of a dash is equivalaent to about 13,000 keys.
Ps, do you need keys for the superchest or thats a free open?

I got 1 Bulgasari and 1 scourge ( and a bunch of stuff I don't need ) with my first 13K keys. I didn't think it was that bad so I bought another 13K keys. The second time around, I got 1 scourge, rogatka, galahad, a bunch of gekkos - no K bots. Funny thins is, I got the Bulagasari from opening a silver chest. There's a bar that fills up every time you open a chest. You get to open a super chest when it's full. 8 gold chest spins = 1 super chest.

So far I have spent £ 0.99 and I am trying very hard not to spend any more - I don't think we should reward this insidious approach.
2 x bronze chests: 1 key, 1 Vityaz (not planning on any more bronze chests) 4 x silver chests: 110 keys (so could spin again); Zeus (already have two and don't plan on buying a Fury); 50 Au; 90 Au
My approach from now on is just to open silver chests each time I reach 100 keys. If all this means is that I get some extra Ag for upgrading what I already have and some Au to speed up the final 11 ->12 upgrade, then hey ho - its all free extra so nothing to complain about. If I do (unlikely) actually win something I want - bonus.
I pay for premium, I think that is enough.

When people learn how expensive things are via the chest the revenue from chests will fall. Than bingo there will be a set price. Forgot who but someone mentioned event tokens during the next event. 2 months seems reasonable I reckon.

Wonder if anyone has details about what is in the super chest! (Still) wonder if I should be opening a Gold chest or rather multiple Silver chests. I understand that chances for something valuable are (supposed to be) higher with a Gold chest, but then, there is crap (like 500keys) in there as well. So it somewhat comes down to deciding whether to toss a coin once or rather roll a dice 10 times....

Gold i I am not so wrapped in anymore and there isn't enough silver when you win to say hey got a good silver payout.

Interesting spin... I've been opening 100 tic chests as I get 100. Rolled and passed over a Rhino, but got 1000 more tickets. I thought I tapped the 1000 chest, but it started popping up one prize after another, so I was off on 10 100's. I ended up with about 600 Au, a bunch of silver, 160 more tickets, and a so-very-nuch-needed Orkan. With this take, I've almost got enough Au for another Ork. And then I'll just need one more to make Mr. Fujin happy, because he's not doing much smiling with the Tulus. Anyway, I'll take it -- almost makes up for the string of miserable games I've been having lately.

I've now spent US$410 of real money, probably about 60,000 keys spun including keys won back. I have one single Dash bot to show for it. Of course, I can also now run a full 5-slot hangar of nothing but Lance or Rog or Gareth or Galahad or Doc if I wanted to. :/

Wow, tempest sounds like an awfully rare prize... I was hoping I might get to play with one.
I now realize how lucky I was in the last event, when on day one I won a Fury.
This time, I started opening bronze boxes every time I hit 10 keys, then re-thought that. I dropped $10 on keys, opened silver boxes with thoae, and won some Ag, a few Au, and an Orkan. Dropped another $10 and won some Ag and 40Au.I think that's enough real money. I'll be opening a silver box every time I hit 100; maybe get lucky.
