It was stated in the announcement that they are only able to be purchased once.

I use postimages.org with the direct link option to embed images here.

The exotic section of epic containers contains the following items: 500,000 crystals Legendary Key Crisis Armadillo Event Items There are iterations of epic containers for every event. What changes is the event items. For the Festive Season 2025 event, it featured every Excelsior augment for the equipment in the game as well as a few other things like Detonator and Blaster shot effects. Every event announcement tells you what is featured in the exotic section. The current Ice Age event features specific augments and skins for Railgun and Ares. The fact that you are not seeing anything there means you already have all of the items in the exotic section for this event.

In short words, 2025 was the worst year I've ever had in this game. On top of that, the game balance feels like it's in shambles right now.

How is this a hover hull-specific problem? This happens with every hull.

Yes, the pity system is still active. If you do open large amounts of epic keys it would be in your best interest to count them like scales said.

@Helios It took almost 3 months for us to get back that lost progression btw.

I don't see how you can possibly think that Armadillo becomes useless after this.

The paramaters augments have on release is the way they're supposed to be forever and ever?

Says who?

It was never a penalty. Stock Ricochet reloads the bar in 4.34 seconds. Berserk reduced that time by 20%, to 3.47, making it all around more efficient at everything. This change puts it at 4.03 seconds. Still directly more efficient than Stock but less so than the previous version. This change should mean it will be harder to conveniently bounce the shots pushes it much more closer towards playing head-on like other Vulcans.

If you're already rich enough to buy the Tankoin Tank paint, what use do the developers have to suddenly give you free stuff for that? They'd want you spending money on events.

The total coins on the team determine which team will receive the main prizes of Gauss Pulsar and Gauss IC skin. Every player that is in a particular team has their own small contribution to that big number, and that personal contribution can either be obtained from the event missions (13 coins in total) or purchased in the shop for crystals/rubies.

No. It's only revealed in the announcement of the next event.

One mission is added per day.

You can bet that it'll be buffed in the future. Current Boxer has pretty much no redeeming factors compared to the others. There is a myriad of ways they can buff that augment.

The parameter you see in the wiki is the time it takes for the energy bar to reload. It takes 0.35 seconds so 2,857 energy per second regenerated (maximum capacity is 1,000). The time between two shots is unchanged at 0.5 seconds.

Have you used it since the Scorpion rework recently?

So THIS is what's been screwing me over all this time, huh. Playing on the lowest graphics and had to fine tune my sensitivity between 10 and 14 where below is too slow and above is too fast. Now my comfortable sensitivity is all the way near 30%.

There are no augments that need nerfs in the game. Everything is completely fine.

The future is grenades and all, but a teleportation grenade is jumping the shark imo.

That's the thing. We don't know that yet. We have yet to see if a new pattern will emerge. We have yet to see where those epic keys will be going to in the subsequent events. The fact that it happened at all is not a good sign. When progression gets removed randomly it usually takes quite a while to show up somewhere else, too long. Back when they nerfed normal containers in 2022, it took months before they increased the rate at which we obtained normal containers per week. It took even longer than that for a pity system to come in. For all we know, these epic keys might show up a month or two into the future. In the players' eyes, that's a period of progression being nerfed for no discernable reason.

My main gripe is they removed the normal advent calendar. I do see that they gave a few extra common keys for the duration of the event but the epic keys are gone. One could argue that the keys that we'd get from the removed advent calendar would have been put in Battleship event, however we got those same missions with the same prizes last year. I appreciate that they also extended the event mode special missions timer to be the entire week instead of the weekend but that changes nothing for the people already doing those missions on the weekend. It's still 3 epic keys vanishing into thin air. Regarding the 4,400 Advent Calendar, the Black Friday one was good as it's Black Friday, it was meant to be profitable. 60 epic keys on their own will not give a random player much. They might get a Legendary with a higher weighted chance to be a paint. Maybe a semi-useful status augment. They might even get a random exotic, but that would be good luck, not average luck, far less bad luck. This advent calendar is a cheap way (higher cost up front though) to get 60 epic keys but it really seems more like a cheap way for older accounts to get the recruit paint.

Adding to what Helios said, Stock Hammer itself has very high impact force right now. If it's not Boxer that is tripping you up (which it likely is), it could be a myriad of other Hammers too, such as Revolvers, High-Capacity Anno Clip, or other 3 shots Hammers that don't have decreased impact force.

How so? Last week when it came, this didn't happen. And it's not like it happened during a silent patch note on Friday. It was normal on Friday and then it started happening Saturday morning.
