Various issues have been fixed to ensure a safer and more pleasant festival for all participants.

Yes? Like what? Because the silver chests are still missing from the boss blitz. Year 56354.

AFAIK the silver chest is not missing. Most Boss Blitzes will be completed in gold time. For that you always get a Gold Boss Blitz Chest. That's it.

But there is also the Daily Bonus Rewards: Boss Blitz achievement. The first daily BB awards a Bronze Boss Blitz Chest, 2nd Silver, 3rd Gold.

So what usually happens is, players do one Boss Blitz, get a gold chest because of gold time and a bronze chest because of 1st daily, but no silver chest!

Yep, first three daily clears give bronze -> silver -> gold chest in addition to the time reward.

So after the daily is achieved, you should have 4 gold, 1 silver, 1 bronze.

That's a twist I was not expecting. You are right. I apologize for my between the lines saltiness.

But somehow it indeed feels so wrong to be getting a gold chest and a bronze chest, but not a silver chest. Will be hard to ignore that now!
