Proof of not only tickets and SSR/SR in Plat chest. This is from my videos above.

That's from when you hosted, yes? When you host, you (can?) get a Plat chest with a Red Soul. That doesn't happen when you join a raid. Sadly, the game doesn't have different graphics for host Platinums and MvP platinums, even though they have entirely different drops (see: Ult Disasters).

According to your words in the previous post you said that Platinum chests ONLY contain tickets (and sometimes SR/SSR drop). I was merely correcting that statement.

At some point (either with the system changes Jack o' Lantern introduced, or with the Jack Frost soul drop increase), they made it so the founder is guaranteed 1 red soul from a plat chest, on top of the 1 red soul for participating.

From what I remember, it was Jack O' Lantern that the new system was introduced and where we saw all this start.

That being said, you don't always get 3 Reds doing Solo, or MVP-ing your own Raid. I've had many occasions where I have only gotten 2. When you Start and MVP your own Ragnarok you get a chance to get dropped the 3rd Red, you also get a Drop that has a chance to give you an SR/SSR or another Ticket. From what I have seen this is the only way to get SR/SSR drop (Start your own and MVP it are the prerequisites). I have not seen anything that has disproved that theory. So if you do get an SR/SSR drop when you didn't MVP your own Ragnarok I would love to hear about it (because naturally people are going to want to prove me wrong, so I'm asking for it ahead of time.)

Oh yea, the bonus drop (be it blue or red) is still random. But the rate went up with Jack Frost. IIRC, I had a bonus blue drop rate of below 20% for Jack o' Lantern, but shot up to little over 50% starting with Jack Frost. Forgot what my bonus red drop rate was for Jack o' Lantern though.

Funny enough, I've actually gotten the Barong gun to drop once without MVPing!

I didn't even vice-MVP that one.

If I remember correctly, Jack Frost was a strange Advent (with history), but still an Advent. Saint Nicholas, the other half of that story, is very possible where the change happened.

You sir, are the first occurrence of that I have seen. I assume that was your own Rag that you started. Based on that, the theory would now be, start your own Rag = chance at drop.

Gah, right, Jack Frost was an advent. Saint Nicholas was the one I was thinking of. The first raid after Jack o' Lantern. The bonus soul drop rate increase definitely happened with Saint Nicholas, as I distinctly remember not even bothering to get everything with Jack o' Lantern (my SSR weapon from that is only 1* and I needed luck to max out the eidolon), but I managed to max out Saint Nicholas's stuff with I think a similar, or not much higher, level of commitment.

And correct, that instance of Barong was one I started.

Jack Frost was indeed an Advent event, the one which I'm very sad DMM never had motivations to make a re-run of.

By far one of the best events back in the day.
