Answers about Black Keys

[SKL-1]

To those with experience I would like to ask, if we compared getting Black Keys from Nightmare and Events which one comes first as higher rate, the second is in what form the Black Keys are gained in Nightmare is it a Black Key icon dropped from killing zombies or boss?, or from the lootboxes and what lootbox if there is a specific one.

From own experience a recommand a way to farm them and what tactics or strategies you imply.

black keys come from lootboxes once you end the map you are playing And the best way to get black keys is from nightmare

Your chance of getting a black key in nightmare comes from ANY nantonium box with a 5% likelyhood itll drop. If you get it a black key screen will appear asking you to accept right after your gun has been shown.
Imo, the best way to farm keys is events, but 5x nm works too and its not hard to do

Well I completed way above 100 Nightmare match with every single match drops 1 to 2 Nantonium box without seeing any key till the moment.

After about one month of play, I've got a total of 6 Black keys, and I think that 4 or 5 have been from NM matches. I think that both the keys I got in events were from the tier rewards (e.g. top 10% has a 4% chance of getting a key), rather than from strongboxes I got during the events. So far, I can't see that events are markedly better than NM for getting keys, unless you regularly get to the top 1% (which gets you a 10% chance of a key).

From NM matches, you can get strongboxes dropped during the match, but I've yet to see a key dropped during an NM match (as in a zombie drops a key directly). You can definitely get keys from nano boxes dropped during NM, but as the response above indicated, it's a rare event - 5% chance of a nano box having a key sounds about right. So, chances are that you're unlucky.

possibly yeah extremely unlucky but thanks guys I think I'm to either over do it or just give up since my guns are starting to lack a little and I'm becoming just a punsh bag with all that armor.

I always buy the 3 perks whenever run Nightmare just to hope of finishing it, and one question if anyone really know, what is the stackable thing on those perks and by what percentage if so.

The Wiki says that High Roller gives each teammate a 1% bonus to strongbox drop chances. I'm not sure how accurate it is for the mobile version, but it says that teammates do get the Tank and Killing Machine perks.

I've finished the majority of Nightmare matches without the latter two perks, though. Sure, sometimes I and everyone else blunder, but if you've built your character right, I don't think they are needed. I don't see a ton of the people I get matched with buying those two perks (some do).

That said, past about XP 60, you should have enough cash flow to buy all 3 if you plan ahead.

[SKL-1]

it only require you to run Surivors once to be able to buy them more than once and you can be sure that you can enough supply of cryo turrets for boss slow and can sell the rest for some return back.

I built my character to be an actual tank that have high resistance so I'm pretty much down on dps unless I max out my first active ability. Thanks for info on the HR stacking bonus.
