@Khallyl The main reason most people go HAM farming these BOX events isn't the XP or MP it's because they usually have everything you need at once (XP, ascension items, skill gems & most importantly QP). Particularly Gold Skill gems and bronze ascension items like bones and dust that you will never have enough of. Gold Skill gems are particularly horrible to farm 1 Gold Apple usually gets you only 1 Gold skill gem or 2 if you're lucky on the the 40AP Daily quests.

It's more efficient the farm the daily quests for only QP and XP cards on 1/2 AP periods but the Box events give you everything else you need at the same time. Normally you get 1 Gold skill gem every ~140AP, while 1 Box gives you 6 in total. The most important reason to go HAM on box events is because it gets more and more efficient the more boxes you do (more boxes=more CEs=bigger bonus=more L00t per AP).

People might disagree but i believe the 1/2 AP Daily quests before this event was a horribly cuel noob trap.
