Stalkingwolf.6035 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 no. only some mats. my best drop from the event was Genesis ( Exotic Hammer ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 I didn't get anything better than some bonus rare unidentified gear. But then I only did 5 or 6 world bosses because other stuff kept coming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reshad Feild.9208 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 i opened around 100 chests and only got 2 times t6 mats and this is only uncommon loot no rare and no super rare so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 I got a tequatl hoard. I include it because I wouldn’t have logged in to do it if the boss week wasn’t active.Nothing from the actual boss event super rare stuff tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donari.5237 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Nothing of note from the boxes here, though to be fair I am a very small sample because I did it for an hour or two on Wednesday, found that there wasn't much of note, and only dipped my toe in during some spare moments Thurs and Fri. Probably under 10 boxes.The biggest benefit was that I was able to get my guildie I'm helping with beetle acquisition to a very full assault on the Mount Maelstrom golem. Corollary downside: She also needed the ley anomaly and while we did successfully take it down, I think we had under 20 people chasing it so it was touch and go. Everyone was off at the world bosses :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illconceived Was Na.9781 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 A friend of mine opened 100 boxes and did not get a super rare. Or even a rare.My expectation: the drop rate is less than 1:10 000 (10k) and maybe as low as 1:100 000 (100k)This is an educated, speculative guess, based on having data from thousands and thousands of BL chests (from different players), without any super rares, the drop rate of exotics from champ bags being low (less than 1 per stack), the drop rate of exotics from rare unID (1:100), and various precursor drop rates (e.g. from forging exotics or from unID gear).If I'm correct, with map populations of ~100 people, I'd expect hardly anyone to have been present when someone gets a super rare, even those participating daily in 20+ events.

Blood Red Arachnid.2493 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Haven't gotten anything yet. Haven't seen anyone get anything in map chat, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killermanjaro.5670 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 I didn't get much, I got an exotic worth about 10g but I don't think that was related to the bonus box I think it dropped from the normal loot table. That said my data is quite small and insignificant as I have been busy since this started so haven't had a chance to play much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayakaru.6583 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Yea, i got a few pieces of iron ore so i can't complain.I never considered the infusions to be a realistic reward.You can't lure a horse with a stick'n'carrot when the carrot is on a stick so long its out of view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EttinTracker.6504 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 It was kind of nice to do boss events again. However, I'm completely underwhelmed by the content of the bonus boxes. From the 40 boxes that I opened, I got two uncommon items, an Armored Scale and a Potent Venom Sac. I think this table says it all: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Bonus_Box_of_Goods/Drop_rateThis was a nice idea but the regular boss rewards were much better than the bonus awards. It would have been good to get at least one desirable item from a week of chasing after bosses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nero DarkSlayer.9206 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Yeah, I bought into the hype for the first day. I killed two bosses before I came to my senses and realized:"Y'know what. I'll bet that ad was deliberately (vaguely) worded to make the drop rates seem much higher than they actually are, and that this is just some marketing trick to boost player count for whatever reason." I then logged out, because I knew I'd be spending 10+ hours playing content that I've already done to death just for like a .00000001% chance of getting something good.

Vancho.8750 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 The chest wouldn't feel that bad if the boss rewards were better to begin with, and if most were better encounters some rework needs to be done with them.So as it is the t1 crafting mats should not be in and would it hurt for them to put mats in stacks of 2 to 3 from the drop, you get more stuff doing random events in HOT, the other issue is the mid range rewards are quite non existent some Volatile magic shipments or Unbound magic-wrapped bundle would have been better,I still wonder why are the world boss specific loot items not in the Rare section of the box.

Dreams.3128 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Lol, not a damn thing.We got played like a fiddle. After playing seven hours straight for two days I was done with world bossing. The vagueness should have been a clue. There was no boosted chances, simply 'available' on bosses themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SakuraJD.4720 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 they shouldnt have used RNG for this. its like using a dice roll in dnd, its poor planning. they should have used a Token system. every world boss drops a token, and then you can go to a merchant who sells each of the items for like 250 tokens EACH, but its an account bound version. that way people could actually work towards getting an item they truly want and would use, and not just to make a quick buck. but then again, why would they ever reward hard work and effort, right?and to answer your question, i didnt get anything (probably obvious) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VDAC.2137 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 No, but I did it for fun and starting collecting for Nevermore. :) My best drop from a bonus box was a rare aqua breather skin I hadn’t unlocked yet. :+1: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpyderArachnid.5619 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Tried it for the first day, go nothing but materials from those boxes. And not even good materials. Literally level 1 materials.Quit after that and haven't done it since. It is not worth it in the slightest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be useful to estimate rates, I'd want enough data so that there were at least 20 drops minimum for each uncommon bin.At most, we can estimate the rate of uncommon drops at around 3%, but that could easily be a result of lucky streaks or who has chosen to add the data.Further note: only 8 people have submitted data; that's also not enough to rule out streaks of luck (bad or good). I am familiar with only one of the posters and I consider them very reliable. With so few posters, it's hard to draw reasonable conclusions.Clearly the drops rates are low, which is predictable. The wiki data isn't really sufficient to establish how low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nearly 7 years playing a game with terrible rewards was the clue for me, which is why I did not waste my time killing a single boss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
