Telanis Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Here's something worth necroing the thread for: a former guildy of mine "Tyranis-Vex" on Jung Ma just got the crate from the final boss of HM Kaon Under Siege. Lucky nerf herder. Indeed. Interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domatron Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 So I was fiddling around with the crate-o-matic I got yesterday, and it doesn't seem like it has much practical use. 1. You can't use it during combat. 2. Outside of combat, you can't move around in the crate (though, as I read somewhere else, you can change your outfit while inside). 3. The crate does not shield you from damage. Nor does it apply any stealth mechanic as far as I can tell. 4. If you hop into the crate, send your companion at mobs, and your companion dies - the mobs will target you even if you're in the crate. 5. If you hop into the crate, and a patrol passes by, the patrol will attack you. 6. Using any abilities while inside the crate will immediately pop you out of the crate. I do have to say though, that it is rather hilarious to be in front of a GTN terminal with a bunch of people nearby and just pop into a crate. Also, a note - even though the item tag still says "Binds on Equip" in my inventory, I can not sell it on the GTN. Haven't tried mailing or trading it yet though (I am kind of afraid of losing it). edit: fiddled around some more you can use it for this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alec_Fortescue Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 (edited) I am paying 150million for crate just hit me up on po5 Wish you were on ToFN... No, you'd wish you were on ToFN. Two crate-o-matics were up on gnt for the past two weeks for 15m-17m. I bought the latter today after being urged to do so by my GM... -_- I hope to find an enthusiast like yourself and sell it for profit. I don't really like it! I can honestly say I've achieved everything in this game now. xd Edited January 3, 2013 by Alec_Fortescue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshlaBoga Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I've seen on drop on Ajunta Pall/Jung Ma. That's about it. The lucky assassin who won the roll got it from the final Kaon boss. Given how many people do that boss/day I'm guessing it's more of a "any 50 npc has a 1/1,000,000,000 chance to drop the crate." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aelther Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Ok, so its rare. I can remember a time when the magenta crystal and +10 datacron were not so common knowledge, but hasn't enough time gone by? For those who possess one, have you not had your fill of exclusivity? Isn't it time one of you breaks the silence? We will love you for it! Saw it on gtn for 20 million once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goretzu Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 (edited) Georg Zoeller said there were 2 in 1.8b drops or something and I highly doubt 1.8b of those boxes have been opened. Ah same odds as a Throne mount from a gambling box then. Edited January 3, 2013 by Goretzu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thufir_Hawat Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Guildie had one drop from a mob in LI HM. So it seems to be a super rare level 50 drop which can be found in world or through the level 50 item boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenemi Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I actually got my crate for 1 million off the GTN. Of course, any others have been selling for 90 million and up so I just got really lucky @-@ I love it so. But yeah, it is supposedly the rarest drop in the game despite the various ways to get one.

Soluss Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I got one a looooong time ago from a crit on a slicing mission or from a purple planetary box. I cant remember. I didn't even realize its rare. Its been sitting in my bank since I got it. Saw 3 on jedi covenant for about 35 mil. If they sell for that much then I might sell it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alec_Fortescue Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I was lucky enough to buy mine for 17 million the other day. Still considering it the best deal I ever made on this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
