You can't debox the vouchers so presumably you can't dbox orbs.

I'm still sitting on all my monthly vouchers/RoEs on both my chars but I don't have any good ideas on what to throw at the current phase.

Stupid question, but if it's a mimic and it has treasure inside, would making a successful steal on it when it gets its DT up something that might work? Not so much Larceny, but steal, or maybe mug? I guess it would also have to have an item, for that to work. Has anyone tried trading the orb to the box? Or maybe it's like that hungry chest from FF6.

I haven't had the energy to level mules to 99 just for orbs. Can they be dboxed?

Should be able to dbox the items I think, just do Trove BC on mule and dbox drops, not like it has any gear requirement to open boxes.
You can debox the items. So yeah easy to open boxes though not easy to try and get more fights in and doubt most people would make the effort to get all the objective each month... like doubt seeing someone get omen access on a mule

Just thought I'd share, #16 same chest, first open, third box (again)

There's no *** way there are 9 treasures and 1 mimic (everytime)

This means I'm picking the "winner" (10% chance) with ~80% accuracy.

17th, finally got to open a god damn box. and surprise, garbage.

Speaking of mules doing this I finally got some vouchers for mules. Did some Venus orbs

Horalis peak:

deaths- 4 (2 were after opening 8 chests with no thud loud or otherwise)

1 noise 1 loud thud- Ammurapi Shield, counts cuffs, sack of snowtip+1

4 noise 1 thud- Digirbalg, rawhide boots, exalted log, tau sack, frayed sack of horror+2x2

1 loud thud- umaru, vanir boots

4 noise 1 thud- ahahera sword, perfervid sword, indi-malaise, heptizon ore, muculent ingot, befouled silver

1 noise 1 thud- watza rostrum, nibiru taber, dawon pelt

Didn't keep track of the winners so much plus can't really know what it was in there but the deaths were all different chests

I have omen access on a same account mule. I also have like 80 +3 items on Warusha because of that. It takes no skill to get lucky with the orb, but I haven't been lucky and I'd like to try to win with Ramzus. If I could dbox the orb I'd have a well geared character to try to win with.

NVM. Nope.

But at least the streak of being in the same god damn box changed.

So, let's talk value. *** this noise, what are people willing to pay for orbs. There's nothing in these boxes that are worth it to me, so who and for how much are we starting to sell orbs for.

Do you have any idea of the rage that would ensue if this is how they made it? Lol. I can just imagine the prices people on Asura would charge for her in a Mimic clear.

Maybe SE will just put her up for rent at $1.99 a month.

What? I just want to see how many people will pay for that.

Maybe add in a Cor with great rolls and not breaking your SC for $0.99 a month.

Oh a 4 song bard with Honor March/March priority, cures and such for $1.49 a month.

So, I have 15 mules from the Abyssea campaign a while ago and haven’t cancelled them. If I have another i119 character to level them one by one is there a fast enough place to level them without escha or WKR gate access?

This whole time after doing RoV 4 times I thought I needed to get to the Escha Zitah point in the story to allow entrance through the undulating confluence.

Appreciate it.

This seems to substantiate my suspicion that the 'thud' simply means you are guaranteed armor/weapon.

bitched out and did a bunch of mars orbs without trying mimic, always open until thud or loud thud then exit

won 14 out of 36 runs, got mimic before thud on 22 out of 36, only interesting drops were an annealed lance and a pair of chastisers

so if anyone was still laboring under the delusion the nice gear was anything approaching common from the first week, nope, rate is ***
