I'll confirm that this bug does exist.

Until we hear otherwise from NGD I would advise everyone to not put stacked items in their stashes unless they're arrows, especially their magnanite's. I've never had problems with armors or weapons for the record. I also really hope NGD is restoring missing items.

Sorry you lost your items DZ ;_;

This has happened with the ''clan banks'' lots of good items were lost because of this bug...

Putting everything else you said aside - this is a lie. Alsius chat is there, just in the inner zone. Trade inside.


The boxes are random. There are 3 classes and two subclasses each. You've just been unlucky, that's why they're called Lucky Boxes. Imagine what a rant would be when there'd be four subclasses for each class, and you'd get nothing for your warlock :P There's a 50% chance for a tunic to be warlock one.

It is YOU who decide to spend money on the box, and you have to keep in mind they won't guarantee anything. There are sites for Regnum trading, like rotrader. You invest stuff, like in real life, only sometimes it turns out the exact way you want it. It's the same with drops, they are quite random too. Lucky box just gives you instant drop, narrowing the random chance to your class.
If you want something for 100%, buy a horse or paint ;]

thank you for reading/support guys.

and i am not ranting, so no need for teaching me about life Pizdzius.
i was imply sharing some observations... and i am not alone in them from what i know. if u insist i can change the word impossible into: difficult. which does not change the fact that I used to trade a lot and since the chat is gone i have been having difficulties. just my personal opinion...

I don't think she was ranting about being robbed or wasting money on the boxes or anything like that. Most people are aware that when purchasing a platinum box, you're more likely to get something you don't want but there's a point when it just gets ridiculous.

I've purchased a large amount of boxes for weapons and i've received a wide variety of bows of all speeds and ranges, some really terrible ones and a couple of decent ones. That's how its meant to be. But for armor, all that ever comes out of that box is gauntlets. That right there is definitely more than just bad luck and its not only me and the OP that experienced this.

I seem to remember something in the description of a plat box that states it will be close to your level and class specific. Hence the reason for the extra cost of plat boxes over the others. The (at least) implied guarantee that it will be something usable at least.

I have the same bitch when it comes to plat boxes giving me knight weapons for my barb.
Can anyone clarify the description and explain where I'm wrong?

The description says it will be around your level and USABLE BY YOUR CLASS, not sub-class specific. So when your barb gets a knight weap, its because you CAN USE it.

Ofcourse that doesn't validate how shitty it is, and how NGD's response is the fabled dual wielding which I believe is never going to come out.

I also learned the hard way that the only purchase worth the money is banners and boosters.
(banners are must have without wz chat to send a msg to people not in clan or party)
Maybe the premium boxes could be divided like the gem boxes so you can choose what type you wish to buy.
It really doesn't encourage repeat purchases when you dont get what you feel you've paid for.
if I wanted to gamble I'd go to a casino.

If I remember correctly the character inventories have a visual limit of around 125ish (about 25 per tab) before the items appear to be thrown into the bit bucket. It is hard to think that the stashes will hold that amount, but I know they have upgrades.

Right now if I get xym I only spend it on sure things. I would recommend that if you want them (NGD) to take a look at what is being considered an issue with the lucky boxes (like giving only gauntlets) then submit a support ticket. At least then you get your little ticket receipt unlike the mixed bag of nuts that the forum provides .

I rehash this from a previous post of mine elsewhere in the forum

Personally I would rather a different implementation.

Instead,

you choose your weapon or armour and buy a basic one from the shops. You then take this weapon or armour that you choose and like and head to the weaponsmith or blacksmith. The Lucky box now becomes Imbue recipe. You can purchase simple imbue, advanced imbue , or legendary imbue. You hand in the item to the NPC and purchase the recipe from it. It is then imbued and becomes your new improved weapon or armour. The benefit with this is that you chose the base of your gear and as such will become less dissatisfied if it did not turn out as good as you wanted. At least you can still use the damn thing. No Barb getting conju gloves or one hand weapon. An imbued weapon is of no lower class than "special".

A second implementation could be the gamble NPC. The NPC has items on sale and you see the base stat on them. Each item has hidden stats and quality but is not less than a special. You deposit Ximerin to purchase the item you like and the quality becomes known when it hits your inventory. Like above you choose the item so at least it is usable by you.

In my humble view, something more along this line may be much more palatable to the community while still raising revenue. In fact if implemented properly, it could encourage repeat business.
