I propose some tweaks to strongboxes
- Make them only be salvaged by winning teams
- Make strongboxes only awarded in Public Contracts.
- Make them much more rare.
- Make them have better gear on average
Here's what I think this would do. Increase the 'value' of the boxes. Having hundreds or thousands of boxes really seems to deflate their value, in my eyes anyways. I'm not even really curious about what's in my boxes. But if I had a handful of boxes, I think I'd be more curious somehow. Supply and demand. If I had 3 boxes left I'd be more willing to shell out money for aurum and open them. Now that I have almost 1000 boxes, I know keys will come and go through missions and I'll have endless opportunity to open them, so no rush.
Also, this would provide a much needed incentive to win Pubs."Want your super rare dropbox with a good probability of rare gear, better try and win this pub." ... ya know?
Who cares what some sniper has to say.
CCP, let's push for the license of Dust/Legion on both current Gen consoles!

Seems pretty solid; taking the ADV gear out of them as well (it's not like it takes a lot of SP to use the AUR proto anyway) and increasing rarity would work out nicely; if we weren't drowned in boxes we wouldn't complain about how it feels like we're required to pay to open them, and if they more consistently offered decent gear we'd complain less about the garbage rewards we get.
Guys, we need to stop calling MU a 'matchmaker' when it's actually a 'teambuilder'.
And I want to play FE:A now. Damn.

Not sure if this I just me. But I haven't been getting truck load of boxes lately. Maybe some every 4-5 battles if that |

Droprate was lowered. Sharply.
Only proto/BPO should be dropping.

I'd be happy with them making the boxes not light up my salvage icon 24/7 reminding me I've got a thousand pieces of junk waiting for a key.

I like your thinking on the fact that we need more incentive to win.
Strongbox distribution seems good how it is simply because many players were not around when we were all getting spammed with boxes so they have a minimal number in inventory which is bad for CCPs revenue from key sales. |

Lol
Shall i remind you,strongbox keys can be purchased with AUR.
With 0 strongboxes there will be 0 keys desired.
CCP would be shooting themselves in the foot if they did this.
I would think that flooding players with strongboxes would encourage key purchases,over only rewarding the 1337 few.
