Then make them rare items that rarely drop from the event bosses, and possibly Elite Tindirin bosses. Make this special crate a mythic rarity item that can be rerolled from a legendary item, and you will get people farming with luck elixirs all event long hoping to loot one of these special crates. And if they do not have the 1000 plat to open one, they can sell it for many millions.
    God no. Guaranteeing a Mythic Weapon or Arcane item will destroy the economy. People spend Plat in THOUSANDS just to have a chance at either and you're suggesting only 1K plat to open?

    I said to make them rare. Everyone has been asking for ages to have something really valuable that drops directly from a boss. Well, here it is. This special locked crate will be worth many millions for sure, and will drop directly from a boss. But keep them rare enough that they do not have a big impact on the prices of arcane items and mythic weapons.

    Having them drop from a boss would be fine as there is a PvE aspect to it, but guaranteeing the item for a suggested amount of plat is not a good way to this. Maybe offering double odds on the crate itself, but not guaranteeing the item.

    If they are super rare then it is fine. It would be no different than if the weapons themselves dropped directly from bosses. Except in this case STS gets to make 1000 plat on each one that is looted.

    guaranteed super rare mythic drop from a particular type of crate for say 1000plat is just another way of saying, making that very rare mythic plat purchaseable. Looks like we need a new blacksmith shop in the game ^_^
