Seriously, I got a Quafe Sniper rifle within the first week of Warlords 1.0's deployment, and that's all.
I've opened dozens of boxes, + all the 5MCC event ones, and no BPO's have come out yet.
I read on the forums that some people got 3 Quafe PLC's. THREE! How the hell can I be so unlucky?
I'm very sad.

It seemed that strongboxes received a nerf after the 5MCC. I say this because all of a sudden I started getting TONS of advanced AUR trash when even 2 days before that I was getting all viable proto AUR gear at least. I really wish they had not cause I would love to take advantage of the sale on the 225k pack and open all my boxes.
I have opened a few hundred boxes and only gotten a POS Brutor logi BPO. I am also seriously sick of seeing these quafe missile launchers and vehicles in general. |

I think they're supposed to be rare... That's kinda the idea.
If you'd got none and were bitching I could understand, but you're bitching that you only got one instead... And well, that's just ungrateful. |

Could be worse.
You could be the guy that came to the forums to complain he only got a Medium Frame Dropsuit, only to be corrected that he didn't actually get a Dropsuit; he got the Medium Frame Dropsuit Skill Book.

Its totally random. I didn't ever want to buy strongbox keys as at first I only ever got absolute junk from the free keys we got. I noticed over the past week or two my luck had changed so I thought **** it - and went and bought some keys.
I've had a Quafe HMG BPO, Quafe Plasma Cannon BPO a Quafe LAV BPO and a Kaalikiota Caldari dropsuit BPO which instantly made all my keys worth the aurum! All of this in the past week or two so dont give up, there is light at the end of the tunnel.

I have not bought 100 but I have opened close to that many including the bought keys and the keys generated daily. I must have been incredibly lucky as I have had a few 2 key missions as well over the last 2 weeks.

I will make this simple.
CCP's RNG is a pile of crap.
It works well for them tho because the people that do get stuff come on the forums and brag about what they got. Then idiots like me keep throwing money at strong boxes thinking oh no it has to pay out eventually.
If you are a loser in your first hundred boxes just give up because you are clearly one of us players who got the short end of the stick. |

I got a Quafe sniper rifle from the second box I openned at warlord's release, and after the 5MCC I got a roden scout I couldn't use (Minja <3). I finally spent a few SPs to get lvl 1 just to use my pink gun with an orange suit, but I actually don't use it except when there's a Thale's SR to hunt. That's all BPO's I got from getting basically the max number of keys since their creation without paying. |

Only the swarm was a BPO. But it was a swarm, it's useless.

I heard the only way to get the roden sniper is from the experimental labs. I got 3 thals from it but cant use them.

They certainly were not nerfed. They were buffed in a big way based on community feedback.

I've opened more boxes than I am willing to admit, the only BPO I've gotten was amarr scout that I can't use. Even most of the aur crap I get isnt stuff I can use, I swear that what you get is based on what you don't have skills for. Of the two things I want, the Quafe PLC and MD I have those skills maxed so I doubt I'll ever get them via strong boxes. I'll end up paying a premium for them if we ever get player trading, before I ever get one by chance.

I think it's good that they're rare.
Makes them more valuable and overall cooler. I see a Quafe weapon in killfeed, I think to myself: "wow! What a lucky guy! And it's so pretty..." *dies to it*
It's better that it's rare than overly spammed like APEX suits are... they don't have the same wow factor unless they're Caldari... Those are rare as balls.

I am also seriously sick of seeing these quafe missile launchers and vehicles in general. They certainly were not nerfed. They were buffed in a big way based on community feedback.
Shame I'm one of the people that are 20 boxes in and don't have a single BPO (or anything else I'll ever use) to show for it. Guess it's just white noise to try and tempt me to buy Aurum to pay for keys then.
A useless feature I knew would be nothing but frustration and as luck would have it... that's exactly what it has been for me. Guess I'll just ignore the damned things and open them in bulk in a couple years down the road.
To clarify and not just complain here's my thoughts:
Gamble boxes in ANY game make me feel like crap as a consumer. The devs talk about all these alleged awesome things I can pull from these things, and then tell me the price in real money (which is what they're normally designed primarily for, people that drop $20 and buy nothing but keys to open enmasse). I open box after box in Dust 514 and get random items for skills I don't have, and fittings I'll never use. I get random vehicles for skills I don't have and will never take, and I have no way of knowing what I'm getting or if I'll even need it.
It's something I should be excited to open, but since I'm one of the people that doesn't have max everything there's a VERY SLIM chance that anything I pull out of those boxes will be useful to me. Caldari Proto and Adv. Gallente you'd think I'd get a fair amount of stuff I can use right? Nope. Vehicles, HMGs, Sniper rifles. No skills to use any of it. It piles up in my inventory and I can't do anything with it. Never want to. Never plan to.
So devs still get to say, "It's all good stuff, guys!" but realistically nobody pulling stuff from the boxes will get a lot of stuff they will enjoy. You guys want to make them more enjoyable? Make boxes for specific races drop.
For example:
Caldari Boxes (Only Caldari racial items or items a Caldari would use) Frontline Vehicle Boxes (HAVs or HAV specific modules/weapons) Support Boxes (Logistics suits, modules and/or vehicles)
And ALSO make hacked keys work for all of them. That way when I get a box I will KNOW I will get something I want or at the very least will USE in SOME KIND of fitting. Current boxes are far too broad and 90% of the stuff I've pulled out of them has been useless.
I like that I can open a box daily for free, but if I had more of a choice I might actually be able to enjoy what comes out of the stupid things.

been saying that for past 18months out of all officer weapons the one i have the most of is the Agimus MD at 35, and i have lv1 MD skill. there is only 3 light weapons i dont have min prof 3 in and theyre the ones i get the most AUR and officer stuff, snipers, shotties and MD. i tested the theory last month by checking how many forge guns i got from boxes and my lab and i got around 200 of various meta levels. i wanted to skill ito FG anyway so bumped it to prof 3 since then (5weeks) ive hardly had any forge guns

Ahh so that's why I felt my luck had changed. Still awesome! 4 Blueprints out of strong boxes so far, that plus the officer gear easily made any aurum purchases I made recently, 100% worth it. (In my own opinion of course)

I have got several LAV BPO's, various Quafe Weapon BPO's, and 2 Dropsuit BPO's, over 25,000 warbarge components, dozens of Officer Suits, and dozens officer weapons.
I get a free key every day, and sometimes I get 20+ advanced CPU upgrades... sometimes I get proto weapons.
Other times I get Officer Weapons that I cannot use, but... IDGAF cuz all that **** is free bruh!!!
It really is random luck.
I have a slot character that maxed out the warbarge by opening boxes and getting 300pc Component drops on the few matches I play on it for a key.
I have another that has all kinds of Quafe drops from BPO's to Vehicle BPC's and a phenomenal EOM loot drop rate.
My alt account get's crap, all day every day... and any stuff I do get I run thru immediately in one or two matches.
Luck of the draw...
