RIP Shiny Santa Boxes
The V Coins obtained from Shining Santa Boxes now have a limit of 10 coins per day.

Knew they were gonna nerf them, but did they really need to limit it to only 10 a day?

Ugh, getting to 900 will be nearly impossible
10 coins? Nice troll nexon
10 from Santa boxes and 30 from hi-five boxes is not even enough to get 1 vengeful stone for the ring. What's even the point of having a coin shop if you can't buy anything from it.
As for the glitch that gives you unlimited coins if you of more than 10 I imagine that that will also get "fixed" soon. So to those who can still get unlimited coins make sure to take full advantage while you still can.
Sounds like if you land exactly on a number > 10 v coins, you can keep going for unlimited v coins that day.
There is no limit still for me.
@lokii: I thought they would know it the second time when they first made the mistake. It might happen again next time ...
The santa socks gave me reboot coins, wtf ... >_< I'm done
@endurance: I mean it looks like they didnt learn from their mistake though to over look the limit. LOL but yeah I knew the ninja nerf was incoming..So opened them all up yesterday night b4 maint.
They did the exact same thing last year xmas and i still managed to farm like 7,000 coins before they decided to nerf the boxes.. was able to get a critical ring, trait pot, some damage skins, and that rare christmas android that had the built in shop.. alot of players were mad, i guess they nerfed it again because they didnt want a repeat of what happened last year.
Why does this always happen ? Like every time there's an event that has to do with opening boxes for coins or whatever, the first few days are the best. Then they will always nerf it later. Not so surprised ...
After reset sees to only be giving 1 coins. Before I had no limit, tf..this whole thing is messed up honestly.
From what I have heard, the 10 coins limit is if rng is being really bad to u. The limit caps when the person gets EXACTLY 10 coins. If you managed to get above 10, you can still get unlimited coins.
If only the drop rate wasnt so low
just tested on reset, before reset I hit 10 coins exactly and it capped
after reset, i skipped 10 and have no cap
get ya coins while its still live boyos
Wow I missed it.
This is what I get for studying for finals.
@stoker: I got like 150 boxes from one run.
Edit: I did 2 runs so aprox 300 boxes. I opened them all and got more than 10.
Seems broken still lol some people are capping at 10 while others can still go endlessly.
I'm getting more than 100+
@hualicious: Yeah okay now..
@genostigma: I get it, thanks -erases all my posts-
Told ya dam Ninjas..Welp thank god I finished opening them all yesterday, got enough to finish the ring and a few chairs.
How the HELL are we supposed to upgrade that god dam ring then?
Farmed 800 before the patch and opened 100 after the maintenance...only got 10 coins
@hualicious: You're just one of very few that were unaffected by the change. If I were you, I'd keep it on the DL if u know what I mean.
Ya i was getting 400boxes/evo run on x2. Now I only got 100boxes and only got 10 coins.......
@tashie: not really, i have over 4k Santa Boxes and i'm not getting more coins...
if you farmed boxes and had them in inv BEFORE patch you get more than 10; if you farm boxes today and use them you will only get 10 coins; don't forget high 5 boxes also have limit of 30 so you can get a total of 40 a day.........sucks if you didn't take advantage of farming coins yesterday ;c
Goddam ninjas
@stoker: I got over 130 coins, so there is probably no cap on coins from Santa boxes.
10 coins on all my characters
hmmmm i'll check in evo right now, thats where i was farming, i was getting 400 boxes/run with lucky winter buff
After the SC I opened over 150 boxes and I got at least 70 coins already.
In this part of the SS you can view I got way more than 10 coins.

wtf that's a max of 40/day. shouldn't have spent all the coins i got yesterday on scrolls and cubes... had 800 coins from just the santa boxes alone. should have stocked up for the ring.
It's stupid... 10 coins a day from around 1K Boxes you get just from training ...

Now the boxes are more useless to get except the very limit V-coins.
