I have been saving event keys for about a year now waiting on Dragons Claw since I need 3 mythics from there. Question is do I open 50 or 200 at a time? I am willing to take the extra time to hit 50 if that increases my chances. More pulls mean more chances to hit? Thoughts? I fully plan on burning thru pretty much all of them.

If you are missing **Diamantina** (soulforge), **Hoard Mimic** (explore boss chest), or **Bahamata** (have to wait for the current mythic soulforge to complete), you cannot get those troops from event keys or “normal” means, so be careful.

Elemagrim is the best dragon imo, but it’s outclassed by the power creep of the dragonite dragons. I really liked using him back in the day with Elementalist, and he has some good lore with Wyrmrun, but none of that matters now…

it’s all about a rituals - I personnaly trying to open glory chests to get the cycle - i open a 50 - see only purple for a couple of times, then i get 1-2 legendaries - and then open a 200 event keys - i believe it’s increasing my chances if random here have some compensation mechanism. But it’s a leap of hope anyway))

Opening 50 or 200 event keys at a time makes no difference whatsoever to your odds of getting a particular troop. All that matters is the total amount you open.

However, there is the matter of finding the proper point to stop. Opening 200 event keys at once can waste up to 199 of them on pulls you might no longer need. I usually opt for 50 when close to achieving my goal, single openings tend to get too tedious with the low success chances involved. 😄
