someone opened 50K which is a much larger sample size https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/91lc1x/50_000_zephyrite_zupply_box_opening_and_numbers/ --Life Infusion «T» 22:27, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

TP totals[edit]

Added Template:Tp total placeholder to calculate the material sum prices, but when I try to order the table by it, it doesn't seem to order them properly. Any idea how to fix it? -- kazerniel (talk) 18:30, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

{{tp total calculate}} is required in my experience --Life Infusion «T» 18:37, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
Taken from User talk:Relyk from last summer: "The table has no way to sort the output of {{tp total placeholder}}. The template isn't made for tables, you probably have to go up to the row level or table level to add the sort information. The total is calculated at [[Widget:TP prices total]] and the widget updates the sort value. Looks like Alex has the widget loop through 'tpprice' elements and update the elements with the total as the sort value. The {{tp total placeholder}} template only has 'tpwrapper' for the class so the widget can calculate total TP cost. You will need to check User:Chieftain Alex as he has a better idea on what the widget needs.
The best solution would be to update the sort values once all the 'tpwrapper' and 'tpprice' elements have been processed."
So I guess it is still not possible. --Tolkyria (talk) 18:57, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
Thanks for the info :) I guess we just have to eyeball it then. -- kazerniel (talk) 19:01, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
I pinged User:Chieftain Alex, maybe he can help us. --Tolkyria (talk) 19:03, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
Fixed I think. My hidden debugging code was breaking stuff (e.g. it was sorting 100 Silver, then 80 Gold, then 60 Gossamer) -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 19:11, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
Thanks, I was actually afraid it would be more work :) --Tolkyria (talk) 19:47, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

Since the trades are for multiples of each mat, is the TP price shown for 1 of that mat or for the multiple shown? I suspect that the Jute cost isn't that high so it is for the 25 Jute, but it would be nice if it said so. I could look at the TP to find out but that would defeat the point of this table. Thanks.--Justaplayer (talk) 14:20, 28 July 2018 (UTC)

For multiples, it states so to the left of the item e.g. 25 Jute Scraps. Jute jumped up a bit, actually, so they're now Silver coin 37 Copper coin each. —Ventriloquist 18:51, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
Plus the table headers do say that the amounts are total prices. -- kazerniel (talk) 10:56, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

Not accurate, or extremely bad luck?[edit]

I've opened a few dozen of these this time around, and I have never received anything other than tokens (1-4) and crystals (1-2). Am I just unlucky, or are the tables from the old festivals? Daddicus (talk) 23:49, 7 August 2018 (UTC)

This box is completely new for this festival and no old tables were used, so you are probably just very unlucky (bless RNGjesus). Sime (talk) 00:23, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
Your sample size probably isn't large enough. Even my 100 box sample size isn't large enough. The person with 10K to 50K boxes has a large enough sample size to possibly account for < 0.1% chances. 1% chance is 1 in 100 (rare likely will be higher than this) ; 0.1% chance is 1 in 1000. I'll be opening some more from WvW reward tracks, but I wouldn't recommend outright buying these boxes. --Life Infusion «T» 15:08, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
Yeah, I saw the 50k reference after posting this. It does indicate that these are particularly onerous on the cost-effectiveness front. But, I am willing to spend blade shards on it, since I have no other use for them. Thanks! Daddicus (talk) 23:10, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

Template edit troubles, again[edit]

I want to edit the table for the Zephyr Supply Box traders, but I can't find the proper template page that houses the table. I get as far as as this but no table there. --Disconnect (talk) 17:38, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

You have to edit the Trader page under Items offered. By the way, it is not necessary to join but our discord is great for quick help :) ~Sime 17:44, 2 August 2022 (UTC)
