I dunno the criteria for gold box drops, but I now know that they can spawn pretty much anywhere. Example: Master Corporal, Sandbox CTF, 2v1, battle fund at 10...boom. Gold box. I get it. Yeet! So what determines a gold box drop? Battle fund at 10 + noobs in a small battle is not a recipe for gold boxes......right?

Just started, saving up for Ricochet or Isida (only 100 crystal difference...), which is a better investment in your opinion??
