Talk:Fourth of July Event (2010)

Event Description

I think we should change back to the old description, it was more accurate. As Dias said below, he hit 18m and didn't get a box, and I managed to get a box near noon server time and I had only hit 5.76m. Higher you get, higher CHANCE. -Yuuka 19:30, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Boxes

As of 0800 zulu, it would seem the reward rate is far lower than last years, noone seems to have received a box and 50 firworks yielded no box. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Neouu84 (talk • contribs) . Please always sign your comments with the button or by typing ~~~~!

It isn't that the reward chances are lower, its the fact that its only 5AM server time, and the boxes will not begin to reach required reward heights until after 12PM server time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aleeva (talk • contribs) .

I just witnessed someone get a dustin armor....Idk if its rare, but just saying, lets watch and see how many come up before we put in a rare or common section--Claypot19 12:52, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

Can anyone confirm the reward of Kitty Hand Gloves (Red, White, and Blue) posted by Altrius? I personally think this is false information. However, I might be wrong and that certain folks did get it but were being modest and not showing it. >.> right... --Efflicya 23:53, 4 July 2010 (PDT)

Certain Areas

I was shooting fireworks in Tailteann and I hit 18.48 m and, at the time, I should have hit the rankings banner and I also did not get a Fourth of July Box. I think this is a recycled event and places that were not introduced last year will not give any prizes and are flagged as a "no prize zone" like in the housing channel. --Dias 14:02, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

It seems that some areas are more likely to give you a better height.(Firing off 10 fireworks in morva netted 0 boxes while 10 fireworks in TNN netted 6 boxes.) Can anybody else confirm? Ket 16:57, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

So far Ive gotten plenty of boxes in Tailteann... It seems like its just random, though, I get boxes at all kinds of heights. -Yuuka 01:05, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

I seem to have made a pre-mature assumption. I was getting boxes in Tara (though late at night) so my previous statement is wrong. --Dias 01:15, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

HCH does not reward players with boxes because HCH does not have the event turned on, unlike every other channel, where you see an (Event) tag next to the channel. --κєνıи _{(»тαıĸ«)} 05:23, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Limit

I just wasted a good 77 fireworks, and none of them gave any boxes. I have exactly 50 Fourth of July boxes in my inventory, could this be a limit or is it just my terrible luck? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tylian (talk • contribs) .

Did you launch those fireworks after midnight server time? The page says that the chances to get a box is extremely low early in the morning (PST) while it gets better as it hits noon and into the night. --Dias 20:50, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

The limit isn't even close to 50, one of my friends had 110 and kept on getting them. --Jay 21:53, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Ive gotten over 200 boxes so far. You probably launched them early morning, server time, when the chances are much less. --Yuuka 20:57, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
