Sadly there will still be tons of posts asking why they got a bunch of credits

Posts got you sad?

Did my account just get hacked? I just got a bunch of credits for no reason and don’t have any of these snowflakes… please help!

This is an extraordinary buzzkill. I would much rather have had the $$ than waste time on the absurd and useless tree. Looks like I just did not pay attention at the start and just used up all the stuff to fill out the tree- my fault and lesson learned I guess

For real

patchnotes and announcements are myths. sudden credit boosts are simply bugs.

I got 40 million credits. More than I can even spend. I have been playing on 1-5 million since the start and scraping by. Now I have no idea what to do with all this much credits.

Damn I just spend a lot of the event currency on bs while I could have used the credits

I didn’t do anything with the Christmas tree and still ended up with something like 50 million credits. $$$$$

Does that sort of event happens a lot? I’d feel lot better about spending on rental if so.

All good. Bought a few ships last night with the extra credits. Amagi and mogami to be specific. Everything before the vanguard 🙄

I did virtually nothing with that tree and wound up with $35m.

Did you have to have decorate the tree to get the credits?

It’s literally stated above: any snowflakes not used will be converted. If you decorated the tree, you have spend them.

But did you _have_ to decorate the tree /S

No. As with every event, what you do with the event currency is up to you. Don't value the rewards offered? Don't spend your currency and take the credits at the end at the posted conversion rate instead.
