Boxes are appearing much more frequetnly in the prize wheel. In addition to sptting out Lockboxes with alarming frequency, Mirrored Lockboxes are showing up too. I sold one fairly quickly in the AH for 120k after getting one in the first day of the Dark Harvest Prestige mission. Now you'd be lucky to get half of that for one.

How interesting
I've also been getting quite a few lockboxes, around 6 yesterday. I usually get about one every month, and other players have been noticing this also. May I have a link to the update post Icegill? I'm pretty sure that you're right Mawa.

Sorry to break it to you,
Sorry to break it to you, Icegill, but you're wrong.
Yesterday I got an Iron Lockbox and today I did as well. The last time I got one before yesterday was... a few weeks after missions were released. I thought it was just really amazing luck but then I read this thread. Oh and I've never opened a lockbox before.

No, he's very much right. Prize boxes count too on the lockbox drop modifier. It's no new stealth patch, we've known about for a while.

I'm not going to continue your obnoxious copycat posting, but Icegill is right. I've opened many Lockboxes only to be rewarded with many more when entering the Clockworks. I opened 60 in one day and got 37 in a row from the Prize Wheel. I'm not even kidding. I got an Iron Lockbox in every prize wheel for 37 levels in a row.

I never get lockboxes.
I got my first one yesterday. And a second one. And a third one.

More opened boxes = higher rate of getting more.
Dark Harvest boxes count towards this rate, which is why everyone is getting so many.

Ahh, now that's an interesting idea that I hadn't considered. So because we're all opening so many of these Dark harvest boxes, we're being rewarded with other kinds of boxes in the prize wheel. That could be what's causing it, which is kind of too bad cuz we didn't really need more of those other boxes in the game.
Sorry to break your pride of making this thread but, this "tweak" has been implemented in the game for a long time now.
=The more boxes you open, the more boxes you will get in the prize wheel.
