Comment by Ruenan94First box I opened gave me nothing, no gold, or charms or any loot essentially was wasted first day of "extra luck" unless it shows up in the mailboxComment by TheCheat54Aren't those just Traveler's Log points to get the monthly 500 tender from the Log?Comment by CypheredTVLove is in the Air: Have a Romantic Picnic in the Ohn'ahran Plains was able to be completed prior to the holiday being active, I assume the hearthstone one was well (Keep an eye out for these types on other holiday event challenges if they don't fix it)Comment by TurowaiTo note, sadly my alts that're between lvl 50 and 60 are being awarded the green 'lesser' box (that cannot drop the mount) from the dungeon, not the purple one (that can award the mount)

So seems like blizz upped the min lvl this year :(Comment by deathlavitzI hope someone tells us how much, if noticeable at all, this increase is. Something like 1:4000 to 1:3900 isn't much of an increase but can be twisted to say its a great increase, as 100 is a great number you know. Even if its 1:3000 in this example its yes a great increase but still in a ya likely won't see it.Comment by Enril766Aren't those just Traveler's Log points to get the monthly 500 tender from the Log?Comment by QwagsoirWeird so many are until 11 feb instead of 20Comment by d3cadanceTo note, sadly my alts that're between lvl 50 and 60 are being awarded the green 'lesser' box (that cannot drop the mount) from the dungeon, not the purple one (that can award the mount)

So seems like blizz upped the min lvl this year :(Comment by AlkbuttsAlso new, seasonal Trading Post activities can garner you a total of 750 Trader's Tender:Comment by NhailShalendirlevel 50 or 60? I think there is a confusion here because in my 50's characters the box is green and not purple.Comment by KerathrasWish they would have elaborated on just what “greatly increased” means. Because if it was a .1% drop rate before and they bumped that up to a whooping 1% that’s technically a “great increase” though it will not translate to any real noticeable difference.Comment by xxparrotxxThis article is incorrect on the traders tender. It’s just points towards your travelers log. Not extra traders tender.

Have to question articles posted too often anymore. Feels like they’re a focus on quantity and quickness to post instead of making sure the info is correct. *sadge*Comment by mmotaThe increased drop rate is only for the first box in the whole account each day?Comment by LostelfPretty sure this is travel log progress, not tender. So only useful if you haven't already capped for the month.Comment by dokeefe1986i thought the increase was only on the first run of the day for the entire account. is there increased mount chance from first box on alts too? i thought alts would get the lower drop rate chance. please clarify.Comment by Lisheng07level 50 or 60? I think there is a confusion here because in my 50's characters the box is green and not purple.Comment by ToskenGot the mount in the first box I opened today (first of the year).Comment by NhailShalendirlevel 50 or 60? I think there is a confusion here because in my 50's characters the box is green and not purple.Comment by kodora1316I’d really hoped that the Vile Fumigator Mask would be moggable :(Comment by CasthielI hope someone tells us how much, if noticeable at all, this increase is.
