But.. why?

But.. why?

Why not? Some people love that mass opening feeling. I saw a video of someone opening 300 Overwatch loot boxes that took him since release to earn.

Not to mention this kind of recorded opening of so many emissary boxes can really help out with player driven efforts to catalog emissary drops to try and determine drop rates for things like Curious Coins.

People love watching paint dry, but apart from attracting views for doing something "omg totally outrageous!", what's the point of hoarding caches?

[Ilir]

what's the point of playing ? what's the point of eating anything more than your body needs ? what's the point of anything ?

Just shut the hell up with the "why" "what's the point of" ... you already know the answer dumbass.

Infracted

- Player does something
- Holier-than-thou squad arrives to give their opinion as if anyone asked for it because they think it's worth its weight in gold because they're so special

Clockwork

Jesus, you're so angry over me asking a question over some dudes youtube video? Why you need to whiteknight some rando youtuber so hard?
I'm just asking what the point of hoarding caches is? As far as I know there's no advantage in saving them (like higher legendary chance)

Calm the fuck down buddy.

What fucking squad? As far as I can see I'm the only one asking why. You're referring to me as squad? lol
I'm asking what's the point in hoarding caches? It's a pretty legitimate question, eh? Chill. I'm not criticizing your youtube hero.

Wait a second, did I miss something or did you not get a single legendary?

Ouch. How long did it take you to get this many? I've been powering through leveling new alts but I'm at 5 110s and losing my will to live despite it being extremely fast in Legion. Don't know what it is, I was able to level boatloads of alts in the past 3-4 expansions no problem but Legion is killing me. I think it's the level scaling as it's making me never feel like I am getting more powerful during the leveling process, I tend to feel the same at 109 as I did at 101.

Except, it doesn't. Those 350+ Chests he opened all have different drop rates in them. Some would have to be from launch, then 7.1 when they tweaked drop rates once again and then in 7.1.5 when they tweaked them again. It would give off faulty stats unless you did a mass opening prior to patch day each time.

The dude posted his own youtube video to a public forum. If that's not asking for people's opinion, I'm not sure what is.

I cant believe I got nothing, but I have started my next batch now.
Hoping for some bad luck protection next time.

It took me just under a month to get.
I will get it a lot sooner this time.

I did it for fun. Not asking for subs or likes.
I will continue to do openings of various caches/boxes for fun and some lulz

They were all from 7.1 after the increased Leg drop chance

Only issue with that, is that the items are generated on Loot Box obtained, not when opened. :S

Yeah, but the data would still be skewed since it's with multiple toons.

[Lochton]

There is a link for sharing your videos.

How is it skewed? Curious Coins don't have bad luck protection. A box is a box is a box.

You're actually the odd one out, if the OP didn't want opinions then they wouldn't have posted the thread to begin with.

I think it was in reference to legendary drop chance. Since different chars would be in different stages of "bad luck protection", they can't really be compared

The discussion chain about documentation of drops stemmed from a post talking about Curious Coins, nobody talked about documenting legendaries.

Read post #13 again? The one you replied to?


I think someone quite clearly talked about legendaries?

OP's have all sorts of 'reasons' to start a thread.
Even if they 'don't' want opinions.
