Quick Guide to Deep Sea Hunting
If you want perks and have an account with most, or all island heroes at 5 star, focus on getting red hero tickets from blue boxes rather than gold shards from purple and red/gold boxes. Here’s why…
Red Tickets from Blue Boxes:
- Each blue box gives 5 red tickets.
- Each ticket is worth about 0.8 perking shards.
- 3 blue boxes give 15 red tickets.
- 15 red tickets * 0.8 perking shards/ticket = 12 perking shards.
Gold Shards from Purple and Red/Gold Boxes:
- 67% chance of 3 gold shards, 33% chance of 12 gold shards.
- 1 purple/red-gold box from merging 3 blue boxes gives an expected value of: (0.67 * 3) + (0.33 * 12) = ~6 gold shards.
Comparison:
- 3 blue boxes = 12 perking shards.
- 3 blue boxes turned in one purple/red-gold box = ~6 gold shards.
In the long run, you’ll get more perks from blue boxes, so focus on them if you need perks and have most or all island heroes at 5 stars.
disagree. In the long run, perks are transferrable and therefore perk shards become useless once you have full perks for all your combat heroes. on the other hand, universal gold shards are always needed because heroes grow old and obsolete
