So you don't get the gift box until you pick your choice of holiday rewards so what is everyone picking?

 

[Larisa]

sleighs :/ Yes I want all of them! lol

 

[Poo]

i was picking up a random collection of all the stuff but i think im gonna change course and start getting all sleighs as well.

they are addictive little buggers!

 

[Larisa]

Yeah I am craving one with my name on it but so far no luck

I've gotten all 4 Eodon Tribe Villages though so that's good.

The only different ones I have gotten are The Remains of Montor, The Port of Buccaneers Den

the rest are normal I tried with good and bad karma characters.

 

[S_S]

I got another Angel Box, just unsure if these are new colors or not.

 

[Larisa]

I got that same one S_S, that pretty kelly green color....love it!

from what im seeing if you have good karma you get a present - if you have bad karma you get coal.
then from there its just random to the 30 places.

EDIT - so i was tracking my karma and it definitely is if you karma is 0 and up you get a present and if your -1 and down you get coal label.

 

[Poo]

no more new hues yet?

if you go up to the main post and look at E) you will see on the far right if the colors have angel boxes.

this one is strange..... you can get this color with all 3 of the metallic dye tubs

POSSIBLE (because its not listed on previous years but you can dye a box yourself this color with a metallic dye tub????)

2016 Rare Hue #4 2632

Except this type of box cannot be dyed.

I've been keeping the wiki updated as folks have reported hues. I'm esp curious to see if angels only came in a few hues, or if they too now can be found in hues 2-101. For all angel box collectors, keep in mind, the name of the box will be different, so you'll still be able to tell the difference. @S_S, the wiki pics are all real-size for you to compare. @Poo, I migrated E and F to the wiki;

[Spellbound]

Received an old rare hue, 1088 speckled square box yesterday.

 

[S_S]

Another:

 

[Drakelord]

Angel Box... hmm, intended?

View attachment 57893

I got one as well

 

[Sinder Shayde]

Received these two today. I added the Hue ID

 

[BrianFreud]

So do we have enough angel boxes in yet to safely assume they now come in everything from 2 to 101, just like the other types?

 

[Poo]

@BrianFreud

i received 1 angel box so far and its Hue ID is 13 so im guessing they added them to the 2-101

UPDATED - total 3 now, Hue ID are 13, 62, 67

 

[BrianFreud]

Once we get a few more angels reported, I'll add angels for 2016 for all 100 of those hues to the wiki chart.

 

[Poo]

Received these two today. I added the Hue ID

Good Find!

2016 Rare Hue #5 1088

 

[Larisa]

Yep I've only gotten that one green one so I'd say the Angel Boxes are still pretty rare, but come in all the regular hues now.

 

[Poo]

Except this type of box cannot be dyed.

good work on those @BrianFreud , they make my OCD feel soooooooooo good!

 

[Poo]

so the sleighs with your name on them, so far im finding these are about a 2/343 so far so like 0.6% drop rate.

 

[Poo]

interesting.

pulled another 2548 and it looks totally different than the other one i have, i even have them on the same shard so i could compare them side by side.
different box type really messed up these ones so they look nothing alike, eh?
just at the bottom of the one they look the same.

 

[Garrett.]

I got this one, not sure if rare or not?

 

[Riply]

It is a rare color one nice find!

 

[Garrett.]

Nice! I'm not normally that lucky with rare holiday picks Got another one here if anyone can confirm if rare please? Thanks

 

[Riply]

Yup looks like another rare one!

 

[Garrett.]

Looks like I'm on a roll

 

[Riply]

Damn play power ball lottery!

 

[Garrett.]

Maybe I should, 3 of those boxes were on one account and shard

 

[Garrett.]

Got another of these;


Making 5 rare ones in total - not a bad haul this year! Damn shame none of them are on my home shard or any I have shields for....

 

[BriarRose_Qwennie]
