No Wings after 666 gift boxes

He said 1 in 10000 chance again on the stream.

I posted the odds in the thread: Sanctuary Freezes Over During the Hellish Holiday Event - General Discussion - Diablo 3 Forums (blizzard.com)

If he’s not mistaken about 1:10000, 666 attempts is nothing when it comes to farming for the wings. It’s going to be FAR faster to hunt via Lillian. Unless he’s mistaken about the odds, realistically, you’re going to have to play 15 hours a day, every day of the event to have a 50% shot at the wings. (I know I posted 8 hours a day in the thread, but that’s going on an unrealistic, perfect efficient play).

For me, it’s starting to look like 1 in a 1,000,000! :grimacing: :face_holding_back_tears:

After 666 tries? No wings? Dang, that’s evil. Diablo is sending you a message.

It took 10 Gifts but I got the Sword of Mediocrity which is all I wanted. Oh, and some Coal which I have not received though my lady got 3 of them. In 4 Gifts.

Please see the link below for Maxroll guides.

P.S. If I roll a six-sided dice, there is a 1 in 6 chance to roll the number ā€œ4ā€. That does not mean that I am guaranteed to roll the number ā€œ4ā€ in 6 rolls of the dice.

If anyone finds the Second Quinquennial Sword, do they mind sharing? I think that I am only missing that and the cosmic wings now.

Typical nerd. Stop those nonsense pls. No one cares.

I always let Greed slam into the walls as many times as I can before I kill it!

Now we know you say one thing but do another.

Something I realized after seeing this thread back from the dead.

I haven’t gotten any wings yet either… LOL

But I haven’t opened any gifts yet. Been accumulating them in my stash. Trying to see if I can fill the stash before the season ends now.

Then open them all at once. Or close to it.

Two weeks ago on ASIA I’ve gotten the wings in less than 10 Holiday gifts. Yesterday I got’em on EU (this time much more gifts, did not count). I’ve yet to get them on Americas region. Fingers crossed.

Well, 666 isn’t a lucky number.

Try 888 or 8888 and on, those are considered lucky. Well in China at least.

Hope you get them soon though.

777 is pretty lucky in Las Vegas

The post was dead for 19 days, you didn’t need to necro it

Was entertaining seeing someone so clearly wrong fighting so damn hard to get everyone to believe them even though not a single person besides that guy believes saying a chance is a guarantee. I think they were confused because the word ā€œinā€ was inside the sentence. Since obviously ā€œinā€ implicates it exists no matter what.

I got them after ~1100 boxes.

Hundreds of gifts so far, no wings.

Congrats! I still have not, but don’t have the time to farm nearly that much. Coming to the likely conclusion I’m not going to get them.

It should be noted that when the holiday gifts are removed or deactivated, I would make sure you don’t have any un-opened ones left before hand. I believe the Holiday gifts were to stop dropping after the 2nd or the 4th of February. While I would hope they wouldn’t disappear if you have been stashing any, that doesn’t mean they won’t disappear either. Just FYI.

Same here. That is why my time when I get to play has been spent doing nothing but farming them.

Game on.
