New Treasure Chests

Home Forums Angry Birds 2 Forum New Treasure Chests

  • I bought the red upgrade and since I’m supposed to be getting more of various rewards, I’m interested in the new treasure chests. I guess we should also collect data on the chests on the map, but I’ve completed the map. As far as I know they still give 20 feathers without the upgrade and should give 30 with.
    Red’s upgrade is supposed to give you +50% feathers from chests. It’s not necessary to buy the upgrade to collect data, but please let me know if you have it or not.
    If anyone else is interested, I’ll compile the data all of you provide.
    There are two problems with a single person collecting data on these chests
    1) The Premium Chest costs 80 gems, so I’m very unlikely to try it more than a few times, even to satisfy my curiosity.
    2) The regular chest only provides a reward once a day, and maybe once a day you can watch an ad to get another reward.
    What I’m hoping to get is the frequency of award by number of items obtained.
    So I’m collecting data for both of the chests in tables like this:

    	Regular Chest						
    Date	Ducks	Snow	Pepper	Gun	ME	Gems	Feathers
    1/5/16							25

    Note that if 25 feathers is 50% more than what you get without the upgrade, you would get 16.7 feathers, which can’t be correct.

    @Clovos
    says the premium chest can give up to 250 feathers, but all I’ve see so far is 2 spells, which isn’t even worth the 80 gems.

    I’m sure I’ve tried the premium chest at least twice, maybe 3 times, and all I got was a couple of spells. However, in the interest of rigor, I’m only counting the 80 gems I wasted today for 2 blizzards.
    Just spent another 80 gems, and this time I got 150 feathers for Terrance. Not bad, but I have no way of knowing whether it’s 50% more than without the upgrade. Terrance’s feathers only increased by 150, so if there is a 50% increase, it is not applied after the fact.

    I just got 10 feathers. I also got the option to watch a video which gave me another 10 feathers (for a different bird). That was today, Jan. 6.

    I usually get 3 gems. I’ve gotten a single spell (duck and hot pepper) and feather rewards on other occasions. I think the most feathers I’ve ever received is 20. I’ve never paid the 80 gems for a premium chest.

    A day after the update when the chests were first introduced I had 500+ gems saved up. I decided to blow them all on the big chest and got one 250 feather prize and two 100s, the rest was spells… And not an Eagle one either.

    Only ever bought 2 chests, will never buy any other, 1 had 2 ducks (I think) and the other had an eagle!

    Oh here’s a good one:

    First I opened a free chest and got 1 Chili Spell, which I thought was pretty good for a free chest. Well then I opened an 80 gem chest and got… Wait for it… 1 Chili Spell!

    I mean come on Rovio…

    I appreciate the info here, guys — at least I know not to waste 80 gems on a “big” reward… One chili spell — wow. With my luck I’d get 40 blizzards — because 40 blizzards are the same as zero blizzards — worthless. Worse than worthless, as they take up a visible card slot and make it impossible to strike a level where you use it. Dumbest spell ever.

    Thanks,

    I’m not sure on the bonus percentage as I never once got the option to upgrade Red but I can help you with this though:

    The 80 gem Treasure Chest gives you 150, 200 and 250 feathers and spells. 150 is the minimum and 250 is the maximum it will give. Hope it helps your research though.

    @datguygamer — Thanks for the info! I got 100 feathers once, so the minimum is 100, not 150.
    So it sounds like the 80 gem treasure chest probably has the following rewards:
    100, 150, 200 or 250 feathers for each of 7 birds = 28 different rewards
    1 or 2 spells for each of 5 spells = 10 different rewards
    If this is correct and there are no 3 or higher spell awards. Your chances are these:
    28/38 = 74% chance of getting feathers
    26% chance of getting one or two spells
    Not awful, but I still think the minimum reward should be equal to the cost of the spells.
    I know the weaker spells duck and blizzard are 20 gems, and I think the ME is 100 gems, but what are the rest.

    @Clovos
    The feather rewards seem reasonable, but you really should change the spell awards to something more like:
    Duck 4 and 8
    Blizzard 4 and 8
    Chili 4 and 8
    Gun 4 and 8
    ME 1 and 2
    It seems reasonable to decrease the number of the intermediate spells IF their cost is >20 gems.
    BTW, Rovio has established the cost of feathers as 100 feathers for 80 gems, even though you can’t buy them outright. I suppose you could argue that it should be 100 feathers for 108 gems???
