Increase the number of shiny chests that can be opened

With the new kingdom tasks introduced in 9.2, it would be good to allow more than 1 or 5 chests to be opened at a time.

Making this so you could open 1/50/200 shiny chests to be in line with the other chests types.

On kingdom tasks screen, if you select a shiny level task it sends you to the troops screen, it would be better to go to the shiny chests screen

I don’t think there’s any good situation where you’d want to open 200 Shiny Keys at a time.

Even 50 Shiny Keys is pushing it as a one time push for a week…

Instead of limiting the selection of shiny troops to useless Raid/Invasion/Journey troops per week, why not let us select from all the available shiny troops for that kingdom? It would make shiny keys more valuable and make the whole process easier.

Oh wait. They will get back to us in a year. Maybe. Probably not.:rofl:

Where do you find 200s of keys @Kevin40 ? Even PvP shop is slow as hell, trying to store them. Do you stack 200 keys in a year, then open?

Prior to the 9.2 update, I only spent my Shiny Keys every five weeks. My rationale being that the only troop really worth upgrading to higher Shiny levels were the Pathfinders, and also because I vaguely recall once seeing somewhere that there was a bias towards receiving shiny tokens of the weekly troop when you pulled.

Even considering that I’m part of a guild that fully completes the weekly event, even adding in the small amounts of Shiny Dust that I’d get from the Underspire or whatever? I was still only opening about 35-40 shiny chests every five weeks. Mind you, that number could go up if I start spending my Gold Marks on Shiny Keys now that Books of Deeds are extinct, but it’s still not that much.

I could see a more legit argument for 50 shiny chests at once. 200 is just too many.

And better that the developers give us some sort of reasonable way to target our shiny token pulls. Preferably not a way that’s “spend 3 shiny keys at once and be guaranteed a token from this handful of selected/curated troops”.

Like maybe there could be a bias in which there’s a much greater percentage chance to pull shiny tokens for troops of the current week’s kingdom. Which would permit us to wait for that kingdom to roll around and spend heavily in that week if we’re trying for a particular token.

I am so tired of PvP too.. gridning the same continents over and over again for barely getting 100 gold marks which is enough for 5 shiny keys. It feels torturous even if I do it to myself, or maybe I should just skip it.

Just collected them since they were introduced but never used

How many do you have on hand?

Shiny keys need to act like Event keys. For example, if there are 6 shiny troops in a kingdom, the 20% chance of getting shiny tokens for the weekly featured troop should not be limited to just that one troop. We should be able to get any shiny troop token for that kingdom. I know some people like upgrading Pathfinders, and this would make it more difficult, but I cannot see a better way to upgrade shiny troops. It is a simple concept, but something like this will probably never get implemented.

it’s in the chest odds that the weekly troop’s shiny tokens has a better chance of being pulled

703 keys + 2629 dust

So if I am getting it right you are not using them cuz you are waiting for the devs to install so you can open 200 shiny chests at time?

No. I stockpiled them until this update and started to use them. iIt seemed a good idea to be able to open more at a time.

Nowhere did I mention that I am refusing to use them

i’m in the some boat with around 700 keys, but you would waste keys opening up so much at the same time, because of the weekly supported troop with a higher drop chance. The best thing you can currently do is to hit shiny level 2 of that chosen troop for the kingdom task, so 10 pulls from keys + the 5 token from guild events, afterwards wait another week and continue.
