Please Respond Trion, Lockboxes are Broken

[NoahsArkfall]

I've bought several of all lock boxes now (with resources) and have 4 legendaries. 2 from T3 boxes and 2 from T2 boxes. I've never received one from a T4 and it is starting to be just about as rare for me to get purples. I've only gotten 1 or 2 purples in the past few weeks.

Random shtako is Random shtako... sorry dude. I wish i have better luck myself.... Ive spent a good deal of MS points in Mass Effect 3 packs and came up short a few times. The only difference is that ME3 at least tells you that there's going to be a least one Rare or Ultra-Rare item.

but with that, is the risk of it becoming Pay to Win and im fine with what it is now.

If I had a spare $50, I'd rather buy lottery tickets if you're just gonna throw it away anyways.

Keno man Keno - you are more likely to get something for sure!

We really need proper gambling in this game... oh wait never mind.

Sometimes I feel the odds are the same... but real money trumps imaginary in-game goods any day.

I went through the same thing, I think lockboxes should be removed from the store completely. The random element for cash is called gambling and it's illegal...

I get plenty of oranges already , it's really not hard to pull them. Pulled 5 last week and traded 1 for 3 oranges at a ark fall too.

Lol!! I had about 15 orange from 125 - 150 tier 3.

And don't focus too much about orange weapons, they aren't always better. Example; yesterday I recieved a orange auto shotgun damage 47x8.

So a white with 89x12 does way more damage.
