...buy a bunch of boxes that you've already invested heavily in (and thus get more gems for the next batch) or just buy the new boxes and press your luck?

      Neither, crown crates are a tumor on the game which should be ignored.

      Don't ignore tumors. That's a baaaaad life insurance policy.

      Tumor should be excised, not ignored.

      Maybe what could happen instead is the gems that drop are only usable for that crate season...that way you dont have people like me gaming the system...rubies for flame crates and emerald for wild hunts, etc, etc...

      I am not sure you have thought that one through. That might be the worst Idea I have heard all day, and we just got new patch notes, so the bar is high.

      Do you really think this game needs more currencies than it already has, and more importantly, currencies that can only be accumulated for a short period of time and then become effectively worthless? The fact that you can save gems and use them on the next batch of crates is one of the few reasons that the system is barely palatable to begin with.

      New boxes. You have a higher chance of getting what you may like in the new boxes if you both open them and get gems from them B)

      I love that anyone even knows what a "Whammy" is.

      Peter, I want to "Press My Luck"

      No whammy, no whammy, no whammy.
