Guild Wars 2 Wintersday Gift Boxes and Rare Item Chances

For Wintersday participants who are opening gift box after gift box in hopes of unwrapping a shiny Unbreakable Bell or Endless Tonic, Anthony Ordin gave players a advantageous hint on the forums yesterday. It appears the type of gift box doesn't matter when it comes to hunting for super rare goodies.

The modest, medium, important, giant, & personalized gift boxes all have an equal chance of dropping the endless tonic and the unbreakable bell. In actual fact, all the boxes (excluding MTX) drop incredibly comparable things at exceptionally comparable rates. The only reason there are different ones is largely related to crafting, so that lower level gw2 gold players can find and craft level-proper stuff from recipes & components.

Amazing to know! Also, in case you missed this developer update from early November, Magic Find isn't beneficial for opening these boxes, since it only works upon defeating mobs. Content hunting, Unbreakable Bell seekers!
