Today I was doing a RJP run on NORMAL.
Lookie here...
Lol I found a four star gun. It was a firo DRIVER it was before the new stuff and it was pretty awesome
So Crystal Bombs are a thing in RJP now, aren't they?
I remember finding my Crystal bomb in the old UI - least where the old weapon icons were still around.
It was in the right treasure box of the two past the 2-point spawn garden, with a party of 3. They started freaking out when both of them didn't have it (For those unaware, items and loot were able to be shared among party members back then).
:b
I once got a Crystal Bomb from a box, the situation and stuff was very similar to Cross-Over's, except it was in the final floor of a danger mission instead of RJP
My Grey Owlite Shield exists because at the end of a Vana run when I was a defender elite, a Wise Owlite Shield dropped. Nuff said.
Well... This means darkfang shields can still be obtained! Time to farm depth 19 of ruby rook gate! ;)
I have an interesting theory... what if it's easier to find equipment drops on normal because there are less chances of spawning rarities? On elite I find numerous forge crystals and such. On normal the crystal drop rate is suppressed making it easier to find equipment...
And... I was about to post this, too...
"Anderson, how dare you! You didn't tell us you got this!"
Ps. ~ I wish I had Photoshop, haha q_q
Would make things easier, I think.
I think
Equipment drops replace the crowns/heat aspect of the treasure box, not the rarity.
Cross - over unfortunately the shield in chat looks heavily edited. Try again! XD
@Anderson
I just had to whip it up as quickly as I could, and putting the text together without messing up the whole background (That... That tree...) would take more of the time I don't have q_q
Thanks for all the necessary letters though, I didn't need to make my own SK alphabet to make it fit - Making it easier! :D

Every time this thread comes up, we have to point out that there is an official thread for reporting treasure box equipment drops:
http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/11128
So, if you want to record your drop as part of a much larger data set, or get a much better idea of how many people are receiving drops, work on that thread, not this thread. (The original poster reported there in addition to making this thread.)
Whatever the truth is about equipment drops now, it is a sad and pathetic truth.
Also, my friend got a prismatic mustache drop from an Impostocube yesterday. Yet my first point still stands.
I dunno if i'd fit in the demographic, finding items came fairly regularly over the 2.5 years before the big update. First item was 5* Graviton Vortex (or whatever it's called) as a duo run in FSC/VANA with a friend while on D26 --> ALWAYS BREAK THE LAMPS, PEOPLE!!! Helped me get promoted to Vanguard as well. :)
Also had a friend (Exultra) find 2 shields in one Legion of Almire run with me - a 3* Owlite Shield and a Skelly Shield.
Found 2x Graviton bombs, Firotech alchemer, Fireburst brandish, 5* Jelly coat, 2x Owlite Shields, Skelly Shield, Slime Basher,...can't remember the rest.
Gave most of them away as i had this "Give away at least 1 piece of gear per week" thing going.
Wow, so that is what they look like now o.o I haven't seen an item drop since the new UI. Best item I ever got was a striker at the end of C42. Back when everyone went solo in the treasure rooms to get their own drops :P
