UPDATE Waves of Light Shard Box Update

MollymaukTealeaf said:
I’m personally in a really good club that does at least 1-5 free ec parties a day. I hit everything I can. they need to up the drop rate because this is abysmal. a whole month without a single furni item means that it won’t be possible to complete by the time it ends at this rate. this whole thing was a scam.

I wonder who else is having this issue. I assume everyone but I haven’t flashed in a while.
 
Is it really that hard to find the items now? I assumed they nerfed them to oblivion after many people got them within the first 2-4 days including me

Boxes aren’t dropping. Haven’t gotten any since August.

omg me too! I thought I'm the only one so I wrote ATA. And this is the reply I got

"I'm really sorry to hear about your recent streak of bad luck with the boxes, it can definitely feel frustrating when the drops don't go your way. The drop rates for these boxes aren't 100% guaranteed, so sometimes it may take a few tries before these boxes show up. We're rooting for you and hope you'll see those boxes drop soon!"

The boxes stopped dropping for almost two months now. No, they don't feel how frustrated I am with the streak of bad luck. And don't get me started with taking a few tries before the boxes drop, cause again, it's been almost two months.

It was really nerfed. I did get two boxes out of nowhere, though, so keep checking your inventory just in case.
 
Yeah no, it’s not bad luck or anything, they just stopped giving us the boxes lmfao I already finished the dorm and since I did I’ve never seen another box drop. All of a sudden in 2 months I didn’t get even 1 box and I’m in an EC club and did multiple flashes 🤣 bad luck my ass. Respectfully of course lmfao 🤣

Thank you for all the feedback we’ve received on the Waves of Light Shard Box; we have been reading every comment. We’ll be continuing to check on the comments on this post, the original post, as well as Discord. We understand that this release caused frustration and disappointment for many players, and we want to acknowledge that impact. We must continue learning and improving how we deliver updates and releases and all of your feedback is an invaluable aspect of that.

Our team has been reading all the feedback we’ve received around this content, and have made the following changes which are now in place:
  • Reduced story quest requirements – You will now only need one of each tier’s BASE avatar to start the story quest (down from 7 avatars to 3). This means you would need:​
    1. Pearls of Fishdom OR Drifting Together​
    2. Swept Away OR Sheer Devotion​
    3. Seahorsing Around OR That's a Moray​
  • Increased drop rate for non-tradeable Waves of Light Furniture Mystery Drop Boxes​
    • After starting the story quest, these will drop from Parties a bit more often. This should make it easier for players to acquire the full dorm so that tradeable Waves of Light Furniture Boxes can start dropping sooner.​

We’ve made these changes in the hope it can address some of the feedback we’ve received, and we’ll continue to monitor the community’s thoughts on it as we move forward. So please, continue to share it. 🙏

Lastly, I want to take a moment and say sorry to iZelda in particular, and anyone else who was upset by my earlier comment. In hindsight, I understand why folks felt the way they did and shouldn’t have made light of a situation that I understood shortly after was very serious to the community. My words caused significant hurt in a way I didn’t expect and I take ownership of that. I’m here to strengthen the connection between ATA and our community, not create a disconnect. My apologies to everyone. Thank you for reading. ♥️

I’d just like to say I haven’t gotten a tradable furniture box in over a month and I’m very active with parties.

I opened a help ticket and asked if they could tell me when I last won a box just to confirm this. Of course they said they couldn’t see that but they could see when it left my account (gifted away). They hit me with the generic luck response but added “The tradable boxes can be and are being used as a type of currency, so we avoid breaking the game's economy by being very careful with the drop rates.”

My question is who is using these boxes as currency?? Or am I just not understanding this right? Can someone help me understand?

They REALLY Ought to bring atleast the boxes back to store.

There's literally no one selling the shards anymore and the ones who are, are asking astronomical prices for them. I won't be surprised if they're 1:1b for UV shards at some point in the near future.

I mean technically the story is going to go on for almost another 10 months almost and people who did get them are already done with them so why not atleast bring back the boxes so more people can engage with the content?

I like that the room is tradable atleast so that's good but the avis are as good as impossible to get now.

Not everyone is done with it. I still have 4 more pieces of furniture to collect before I can start getting the tradeable boxes, and I haven’t had a drop since the beginning of November.
