Isn't it the bigger the fund rise, the bigger the chance of a gold? if the fund rises with 1 crystal, there is a 1/7000 chance, but if it rises with 100, it is a chance of 100/7000 so 1/70...

[stanzhang 3,291]

Now it is not 1/7000 its 1/10000

[stanzhang 3,291]

Great. Gold boxes have changed Tanki a lot and have gotten a lot of people into the game. Too many people, though, are saying "Gold box plz admin" or something like that. The truth is, admin don't drop gold boxes. No one does. Every battle has it's own mini-server with a propability of gold. Every time the battle fund goes up by 1, there is a 1/10000 chance of a gold box. So if the fund goes up by 67, there is a 67/10000 chance of gold. Anyone who was wondering, I know that the original chance of gold was 1/7000. But with the addition if crystal boxes being added to the fund, there is a higher chance of gold because the crystals get added to the ones from kill/capture of a flag or point, the chance is now 1/10000. Most maps have multiple drop zones for gold boxes. Edinburgh only has 1 gold box drop location, found in the middle of the map on the top. But in CP mode, golds can drop in other places on the top, or by a team's base. Some of the bigger maps, like Highways, have gold box drop locations on the sides of the map. Not many people know this, but golds can drop behind the building behind a team's flag. If you have any questions about gold boxes, feel free to ask them here. I know a lot about gold, being a 1st Lieutennant.

The Ultimate Guide to NOT Catching Gold Boxes

NOT FOR PEOPLE WHO DON’T VALUE GOLD BOXES! :P

______________________________________________________________________________________

 

“Gold box will be dropped soon”

 

Words that make everyone’s heart beat faster, kind of like giving them a mini-heart attack, and when they finally get it, they go like “Aahhh!” for the next 5 minutes. But why, just why do other tankers steal your gold box?  Or have you ever though that “Why can’t I get gold boxes!?”

Well say goodbye to that now, as here are 6 tips than can help you get a gold box successfully.

 

• Drug, look for the drop point.

This is the most frequently asked question at lower ranks because people always kill each other, especially in DM’s.

The first thing you want to do is equip Double Armor, or if you have a Heavy tank and you are in a bigger map, such as Kungur, equip Double Speed first. Then go look for the drop point.

If you don’t know or you don’t have an idea of where it drops, go to a high point and look for it, a building or a point where you can see at least 60% of the map is ideal. Look for people grouped together, like penguins in the Artic.

Check the places which are nearest to you for gold box drop point first, or you can follow the croud.

• Stay at a good distance without the enemy’s notice.

Many tankers make a mistake of camping above the gold box drop point and then they have to pay the price by getting killed. How to avoid this? Well one thing you can try (in open area, where gold box drops from a parachute) is stay at a good distance, hide behind a building (if there is no building nearby head over to a ramp or a high point) and press Q. This way when the gold is finally starting to drop, you can then go for it! However, there are some places where the gold box spawns on the ground, like in Madness, or beneath the ramp and in the tunnel system in Silence. In cases like these you preferably want to have a medium to heavy hull so you don’t get pushed off easily. Titan and Mammoth should work a treat!

The thing you absolutely don’t want to do in format battles is to go in too early or too late, going in too early will get you killed and going in too late, well you know what imma say next.

 

• Don’t be overconfident when it drops.

If you become overconfident, try to calm yourself first. Then get ready to get the gold box. But do this quickly as the gold box will drop in 30 seconds.

However, if you are overconfident because you are standing at a perfect place to get the gold box, you might miss it.

 

• Stay on a higher area next to a gold box.

If the gold box is dropping next to an area which is higher and you can jump for it to get it, go there. That is the place from which you can have a chance of getting the gold box.

However, if the place is an open area like Desert you can try to push away enemies/friendlies by using a heavier tank with Nitro. But if you are using a small hull such as Wasp or Hornet you can take help from a friend, by getting on top of them to get the gold box.

 

•  What combo? Which hull/turret?

Turrets don’t matter in cases of getting gold boxes, but hulls do, as they are the main reason for your tanks speed, armor, agility etc.

Preferably you want to use Dictator. It was determined that 50% of the gold boxes are taken by Dictators. Dictators are tall, and hard to get on because of their shape, but they can get on other tanks really easy because of the bend on their rear side.

You can also use smaller hulls such as Wasp or Hornet to get on top of other tanks by using their torque. This trick also helped me to get many gold boxes.

 

• Pure Luck.

Yes you heard it right, you are also gonna need luck to get a gold box, perfect chain of events, a loyal tanker willing to help you, or blocking other from getting the gold box just so you can get it.

 

______________________________________________________________________________________

 

That’s it tankers! Good luck at getting gold boxes, and see ya in the battlefield!
