As a follow up on my previous response, after opening a near full stack of the loot boxes (231), I must say these loot boxes are an example of a big waste of time. Thankfully, I was catching up on a certain TV series while doing these WB. After opening: So, for the fundamentals of improvements: WB themselves take too long for example: Fire Elemental, Modniir, Mega Destroyer, and Shatterer. all have prerequisites and huge wait time of up to 20-30 min. WB themselves are not engaging. If I can just watch something and press 1 without much attention to what's happening in game you have a problem. 2g spore skin and the three monocles in the super rare category. I honestly feel bad if anyone gets one of those, at least with the tier 1 mats you can somewhat shrug it off and say it's what you expected from the dice roll. But, knowing you had did land the winning die roll despite all odds and got one of those is a huge slap in the face. Continuing with point 1 and 2. If it's not engaging and it's not rewarding, why should we do them? At least reward someone their time in alignment with current gold farms or at least half the gold-hour rate otherwise no one will do them. Considering this is only a week long hyped event, you-Anet- should take this is into much consideration or you'll soon start scratching your head asking yourself why your big events have less attendance than expected if you keep this up.
