@papakarlo @deindiaan I’ve actually spent most of my hoard of gems already. I’ve been using them up for a few months, so I actually don’t have much leftover to spend the 750 gems on the difference to buy the 1500 missing tokens. Also, from what I reading here, the new TF is not much to write home about. I’ve spent about 100 gems on recharges in this event (about 1 recharge a day and a a few times, I did 2 recharges). If the scoreboard has 3 or more red/green crowned Volcanicus, there’s no way I can compete with only a 210% promoted bot.

At the end of the week, I really did give up on trying to hit 10k tokens. I thought that I could try to recoup the 100 gems I spent this week by opening one 10 gold crates with tokens. I know there’s only a slim chance that I could also unlock the new TF, and I’ve actually NEVER unlocked a TF in a Gold Crate before. I usually unlock them the old-fashion way by earning 10K tokens (which is not that hard if you already have a promoted TF in squad; but nearly impossible in a new squad). I’ve also entertained 750 and 1000 gem offers if it’s the first bot in a new squad, but anything above that is overpriced. However, since that I’ve spent most of my gems, paying another 750 gems on top of the 100 gems spent in this event for a rather useless TF is too much already.

Sorry you had such a lackluster result from opening gold crates. I’m happy that you don’t take these things too seriously. After all, it is just a game. I found that this trick (in this post) may help your chances of getting a better crate. It doesn’t always work for me, but you can try it if you have 2 devices. I play on a mobile phone and iPad.
