Talk:Chance Chest/@comment-27862737-20161107152416

For those who do not know:

Chance Chests are 100% random. There is no "tried and true" method to getting better armor from chests. Buying more gems does not guarantee that you will get better armors. Brand new players have just as much of a chance of getting newer DF or SF as older players. While it may seem unfair, this is the way it's always been; the only difference is now the "step" chests purportedly give you a better chance, but I have seen no evidence to indicate they actually do.

The only guaranteed way to get better armors is to join an alliance and either do a Raid "push" or a "strip" in a Guild War and go T75 or higher (t75 is usually where the rewards include DF). Usually you have to spend money on gems as well to ensure you're going to get enough points to meet the minimums and the guild you're in is active enough.
