The chances of obtaining a particular reward from a group are the same for all items in the group. If a container drops an item from the Ships group, you will receive a ship that you do not already have. The chances of obtaining a ship from a certain type of container (for example, Santa’s Big Gift) never change—if you already have all the ships of a particular group, the drop chances of this group are distributed between the groups of ships that you do not already have in your collection.
If you already have all the ships from the list and the Santa’s Gift container drops an item from the Ships group, you will receive the following compensation:
- 250 steel for Santa’s Gift container.
- 750 steel for Santa’s Big Gift container.
- 1,250 steel for Santa’s Mega Gift container.
The contents of each container are determined randomly at the moment it is opened on the basis of the chances indicated above. The stated drop chances do not precisely represent how many containers you need to open to get the items you want.
However, Santa’s Gift, Santa’s Big Gift, and Santa’s Mega Gift containers have the guaranteed drop mechanic applied: If an item from the Ships group does not drop after you open a fixed number of containers of a certain type (for example, Santa’s Big Gift), you are guaranteed to find an item from this group in the next container of this type.
The guaranteed drop mechanic is triggered if an item from the Ships group does not drop after opening the following number of times, depending on the container:
- 99 Santa’s Gift containers.
- 26 Santa’s Big Gift containers.
- 14 Santa’s Mega Gift containers.
The guaranteed drop count of a particular group resets after an item from this group is dropped. The drop chances of the items are indicated without taking this mechanic into account because it simply forces a certain item to drop, regardless of the random factor.
