I did an experiment with 600 platinum, I purchased the 4X elixir which includes the miners luck for a 100% reloot, and I also wore big luck 2020 for a 20% reloot, and I wore the ingot reindeer for another 20% reloot, and finally golden circuit for another 10% reloot, in total, I was packing 150% reloot chance, and I did 200 runs, costing me 400 platinum, and I used 2 (4X) elixirs, which cost me 150 with a total of 550 platinum spent. Best part??? I DROPPED 6 BOXES ONLY. With an average of winter box being dropped every 91 platinum spent. This was a total loss!! I saw some players spending 80 platinum and they ended up getting 10 boxes without the luck. I see the reloot system to be a complete hoax, players spend thousands of platinums just to end up with less loot and vanity. I also believe the whole winter event has become a “Pay to play” event. I thought the point of dropping all vanities was to be inclusive of all players? That was very contradictory on STS’s part when they made every play cost 2 platinum. I really think this whole event needed a revaluation. It’s crazy because I almost bought another 8000 platinum, but I figured this event would just be screwed over just like the last one. Thank you for your time.
    Reindeer pet (INGOT) has 20% bonus credit loot, not reroll chance. Plus since reroll can only happen once, there is no benefit from stacking additional reroll % on top of 100 from 4x or Miner's Luck... There's also a chance that the winter crates are in a seperate drop table by themselves so reroll might not help at all (but it doesn't hurt to have, obviously), as is the case for some other elites. Maybe a dev can pitch in to give a hint or two?

    Okay, well you completely got my point wrong, I do know that reroll chance of 100% is supposed to reroll everytime. My clear point was stating that reroll wasn’t happening at all even when I was stacked up to 130%. Miners loot doesnt reroll “100%” what I was stating mainly was Devs made us players who invested literally weeks on events and spent over 6000 plats on runs look stupid.

    This is the main question, does 4x or 3x help with dropping crates?

    We know that the luck enhancers do not increase the vanity drop rate, and that use of luck enhancers by farmers after update or during event has mostly always been for looting guns (like shipyward pinks or naps)

    Either way, at least those who used it got better guns! Crate drop may be affected by the juice, and maybe even vans

    As for previously exclusive vanities being available in the crates, still smarting here from orange antennas being given out for some random reason haha Important thing is that the time that the vanity item was exclusive for, that has value too.

    Yes! You right! Knew it but it does not affect crate drop.

    Also I started playing DL and saw the event there. At least our event gives XP!

    In any case, even if it is a bad event, it is good for the forums, more people started posting haha
