Arena Breakout Spring Festival 2026 Guide: Card Locations

Spring Festival 2026 Event Overview: Greeting Cards & Lucky Kiosk System

The Spring Festival 2026 event begins February 3, 2026 (UTC+0) with a multi-layered reward system centered on greeting card collection and strategic trading.

Greeting cards function as primary event currency, obtained exclusively through looting specific containers across all maps. Cards don't occupy inventory space but accumulate in your event collection interface. The system tracks four rarities—Common, Rare, Epic, and Legendary—each with distinct drop rates and trading values.

The Lucky Kiosk opens February 9, 2026 (UTC+0), six days after card collection begins. This creates an accumulation phase where strategic players build card reserves before trading. For immediate resources to maximize early farming, Arena Breakout Bonds top up through BitTopup provides instant Koen for premium loadouts and container keys.

Greeting Card Mechanics

Cards spawn inside designated containers with predetermined probability tables. Each container type—military crates, weapon cases, supply boxes, hidden stashes—features different rarity distributions using weighted RNG.

Card collection operates cumulatively without daily caps. Farm indefinitely, limited only by raid survival rates and container availability. Common cards appear in 60-70% of eligible containers, Rare 20-25%, Epic 8-12%, Legendary 2-5%. Percentages vary by container tier and map location.

Lucky Kiosk Trading System

The Lucky Kiosk functions as a one-way exchange where you trade accumulated cards for event-exclusive rewards. Trades are non-reversible with fixed exchange rates that don't fluctuate.

Reward pool includes weapon skins, Koen bundles, premium ammunition, rare attachments, and exclusive cosmetics. Each tier requires specific card combinations—50 Common cards for basic skins, 5 Legendary cards for top-tier weapons.

Exchange rates remain constant throughout the event. However, reward availability operates first-come-first-served for limited-quantity items. High-value rewards cap at 100-500 total redemptions across all servers.

Event Timeline

• February 3: Greeting Card Collection begins
• February 9: Lucky Kiosk opens
• February 13: Golden Gift Box login reward + Festival Supplies Prep
• February 17: Container Investigation event (specialized high-yield containers)

Why ROI Matters

ROI calculations determine optimal resource allocation across farming time, gear expenditure, and trading decisions. Every raid costs ammunition, medical supplies, and potential gear loss.

High-ROI strategies focus on container routes with maximum card density per minute. A 15-minute raid yielding 8-10 cards outperforms a 30-minute raid with 12 cards despite lower total volume.

Trading ROI compares card input costs against reward market values. A trade requiring 100 Common cards for a 50,000 Koen skin delivers better ROI than 10 Epic cards for a 30,000 Koen item.

Best Greeting Card Spawn Containers: Tier List

S-Tier: Highest Drop Rates

Military Supply Crates: 85% card appearance frequency with 30% chance for Rare+ rarities. Found in high-security zones across Armory, TV Station, Northridge.

Weapon Lockers: 70% card rates with faster looting speeds. Expect 2-3 cards per five lockers. Slightly lower Epic/Legendary rates than supply crates.

Hidden Stashes (Residential): Lower individual drop rates but high abundance compensates. Farm map runs access 8-12 stashes in 10 minutes, generating 5-7 cards with minimal combat risk.

Locked Weapon Cases: Require keys but deliver premium rarities. 15,000 Koen key typically returns 40,000-60,000 Koen equivalent in high-rarity cards.

A-Tier: Balanced Risk/Reward

Ammunition Boxes: Spawn frequently in military installations. Expect 1 card per 3-4 boxes. Consistent Common card sources.

Medical Containers: Moderate card rates with reduced player traffic. Card quality skews toward Common/Rare.

Tool Boxes: Supplementary sources during rotation between primary spots. Widespread distribution makes them excellent filler targets.

B-Tier: Safe Farming

Civilian Containers: Minimal yields but maximum safety. New players can farm with budget loadouts.

Outdoor Stashes: Escape-route farming opportunities. 40-50% reduced efficiency vs S-tier routes.

Vehicle Trunks/Glove Compartments: Minor card volumes. Check while moving between major locations.

Container Rarity vs Card Quality

Container tier directly influences card rarity distribution. Legendary containers increase Epic/Legendary chances from 10% to 35%.

Common containers still produce all rarities at heavily weighted probabilities favoring lower tiers. Volume farming in safe zones can yield high-rarity cards through statistical probability.

Correlation follows logarithmic scaling. Moving from Common to Rare containers doubles high-rarity chances, but Rare to Epic only increases by 50%.

Map-by-Map Container Locations

Armory: Top 5 Spots

Main Warehouse Complex: 6-8 military supply crates in 40-meter radius. Enter through northwest loading dock to avoid central courtyard sightlines.

Underground Bunker: 12-15 weapon lockers across three connected rooms. Heavy PvP but exceptional card volumes. Speed-clear first room, evaluate combat sounds before committing deeper.

Barracks Second Floor: 5-7 hidden stashes in sleeping quarters/offices. Most players rush ground floor. Access via exterior staircase.

Vehicle Depot (East Perimeter): 8-10 tool boxes and ammunition containers. Excellent secondary target when primary zones show excessive activity.

Command Center Locked Rooms: Require red keycards (25,000 Koen) but contain 3-4 premium weapon cases. Returns 80,000-120,000 Koen equivalent across 3-4 uses.

Farm: Hidden Routes

Residential District: Twelve houses each contain 2-3 hidden stashes. Systematic house-to-house route clears all in 12-15 minutes with minimal combat.

Barn Complex: 6-8 tool boxes often overlooked. Enter from southern fields for concealed approach.

Abandoned Gas Station: 4-5 civilian containers plus locked weapon case in back office. Blue keycard (8,000 Koen) spawns Epic+ cards at 45% rates.

Grain Silo Area: 3-4 industrial containers with moderate rates. Minimal traffic, ideal for end-of-raid cleanup farming.

TV Station: High-Risk/High-Reward

Broadcast Tower (3 Floors): 15-18 premium containers. Highest card-per-square-meter density but intense PvP. Requires squad coordination or off-peak timing.

Production Studio Basement: 8-10 equipment containers in confined space. Experienced players clear in 90 seconds.

Parking Garage: 6-8 vehicle containers. Escape-route farming when tower competition becomes untenable. 40% reduced yields but 80% improved survival.

Administrative Offices: 10-12 hidden stashes in cubicles/conference rooms. Most players ignore these. Access via exterior fire escape.

Rooftop Helipad: 2-3 high-value containers with exceptional Epic/Legendary rates. Consistently pulls 3-5 high-rarity cards per access.

Northridge and Valley

Northridge Shopping District: 20+ civilian containers. Safest high-volume farming zone.

Police Station: 5-7 weapon lockers and evidence room containers. Optimal risk-reward balance for solo intermediate players.

Valley Industrial Complex: 12-15 tool boxes spread across warehouses. Open layout increases vulnerability but allows tactical repositioning.

Greeting Card Drop Rates: Data Analysis

Container Type Statistics

Military Supply Crates: 85% card rate

• 55% Common, 25% Rare, 15% Epic, 5% Legendary

Weapon Lockers: 70% card rate

• 60% Common, 28% Rare, 10% Epic, 2% Legendary

Hidden Stashes: 45% card rate

• 80% Common, 15% Rare, 4% Epic, 1% Legendary

Locked Weapon Cases: 95% card rate

Spawn Mechanics

Container contents generate upon raid initialization, not when opened. Server-side RNG determines card availability before players spawn.

Each container rolls independently against its probability table. Opening ten 50% rate containers doesn't guarantee five cards—variance allows zero to ten within normal distribution.

No evidence supports hot/cold raid theories. Each opening represents an independent event with consistent odds.

Time-of-Day Impact

Container spawn rates remain constant regardless of server population or time. However, off-peak hours (3-7 AM local) reduce PvP encounters by 60-70%, improving survival rates and effective cards-per-hour.

High-population periods increase container turnover through player deaths/extractions. Benefits aggressive players who can eliminate competitors.

Weekend peak hours concentrate experienced farmers, elevating combat difficulty. Casual players should shift to secondary locations.

Tested Drop Rates (100+ Openings)

Military supply crates maintain 83-87% card rates across all maps.

Weapon lockers show 12% higher Epic rates on Armory vs other maps. Prioritize Armory lockers when targeting high-rarity cards.

Hidden stashes reveal 8% higher rates in residential buildings vs outdoor locations. Compounds across volume farming.

Locked containers confirm profitability: Blue keycard containers (8,000 Koen keys) average 18,000 Koen equivalent value. Red keycard containers (25,000 Koen keys) average 65,000 Koen equivalent. For quick Koen access, buy Arena Breakout Bonds through BitTopup.

Tier 5: 15 Legendary cards for signature weapon skin (500,000+ Koen value). Only 25 redemptions across all servers.

ROI Rankings

Tier 3 Epic exchanges: 180-240% ROI. Epic card requires 8-12 premium containers (~50,000 Koen), Tier 3 rewards average 120,000 Koen.

Tier 4 Legendary exchanges: 150-200% ROI. Legendary card requires 20-30 premium containers (~125,000 Koen), Tier 4 rewards average 250,000 Koen.

Tier 2 Rare exchanges: 120-160% ROI. Solid secondary targets.

Tier 1 Common exchanges: 80-110% ROI. Barely profitable. Use only for excess card disposal.

Tier 5 ultimate exchange: 300%+ ROI but requires extreme farming commitment.

First Trade Priority

Priority 1: Gilded Serpent weapon skin (8 Epic cards, 180,000 Koen value, 150 redemptions). Secure early before depletion.

Priority 2: Crimson Dragon rifle skin (5 Legendary cards, 250,000 Koen value, 75 redemptions). If you've accumulated sufficient Legendary cards.

Priority 3: Tier 3 ammunition bundles (12 Epic cards, 95,000 Koen value, 200 redemptions). Practical utility with strong ROI.

Avoid Tier 1-2 initially unless you've secured all higher-tier items. Monitor real-time availability counter—if desired item drops below 20 remaining, prioritize immediately.

Secondary Trades

After securing limited-quantity priorities, focus on unlimited Tier 2-3 exchanges with best sustained ROI. Tactical Ammunition Bundle (18 Rare cards, 42,000 Koen value, unlimited) provides consistent returns.

Volume trade Common cards for Tier 1 Koen bundles once higher-tier reserves exhausted. Converting hundreds of Common cards into 150,000-200,000 total Koen adds value during final days.

Consider holding 20-30% of Epic/Legendary cards for potential late-event kiosk updates.

Maximum Profit Trading Strategy

Phase 1: Early Accumulation (Days 1-3)

First 72 hours prioritize pure farming volume. Build reserves of 200+ Common, 50+ Rare, 15+ Epic, 3+ Legendary cards before Lucky Kiosk opens February 9.

Invest heavily in premium loadouts and keys. Every additional card collected now multiplies through subsequent optimal exchanges. Spending 200,000 Koen on keys generating 15 extra Epic cards translates to 450,000+ Koen in trading value.

Avoid PvP unless necessary. Every death costs 5-10 minutes farming time plus gear replacement.

Target off-peak hours (3-7 AM) for maximum container access. Event opening days see highest activity, making early morning 40-50% more efficient.

Phase 2: Peak Trading (Days 4-7)

Execute first-priority trades immediately when Lucky Kiosk opens February 9. Limited items deplete within 24-48 hours. Log in at opening time (09:00 UTC+0).

Continue aggressive farming between trading sessions. Ideal rhythm: 3-4 hour farming blocks with trading every 6-8 hours.

Monitor community channels for depletion alerts. When critical items drop below 50 remaining, interrupt farming to execute trades.

Adjust farming targets based on trading needs. If Epic cards become bottleneck, shift entirely to premium container routes.

Phase 3: End-Event Maximization (Final Days)

Final 3-4 days focus on converting all remaining cards. Trade aggressively without holding reserves—unused cards lose all value when event ends.

Prioritize unlimited exchanges with best ROI for remaining card composition.

Consider emergency Koen purchases if within reach of high-value exchange. Spending 50,000 Koen on keys for final push securing 200,000 Koen reward represents sound investment.

Extract maximum value from Container Investigation event starting February 17.

F2P vs Premium Paths

F2P: Focus on volume Common/Rare farming in safe zones, targeting Tier 2 unlimited exchanges. 500+ Common and 100+ Rare cards enables 150,000-250,000 Koen equivalent returns.

Premium: Aggressively farm locked containers for Epic/Legendary cards, targeting Tier 3-4 limited exchanges. Investing 300,000-500,000 Koen generates 800,000-1,200,000 Koen equivalent returns.

Hybrid: Free farming for Common/Rare baseline, strategic key purchases for Epic supplementation. 400,000-600,000 Koen equivalent returns with 100,000-200,000 Koen investment.

Optimal Farming Routes

Solo Efficiency: 15-Minute Loop

Armory Perimeter Route: 18-22 containers in 15 minutes with minimal PvP.

1. Start eastern vehicle depot: 8-10 tool boxes/ammunition containers
2. Rotate north to barracks: 5-7 hidden stashes
3. Continue west to warehouse exterior: 4-6 containers through loading dock
4. Extract northwestern exit

This peripheral approach sacrifices 2-3 premium containers but improves survival 60-70%.

Repeat 4-6 times per session for 50-70 total cards across 90-120 minutes.

Squad Strategy: Coordinated Runs

TV Station Tower Clears: Three-player squads execute for maximum density.

Roles: Point handles combat, support provides covering fire, looter focuses containers.

Clear all three floors in 8-10 minutes, accessing 15-18 premium containers before opposition arrives.

Rotate one player to extraction with cards every 15 minutes while others continue. Rolling extraction banks cards continuously.

Target 25-35 cards per member per hour.

Low-Risk Path

Farm Residential District: Safest high-volume farming.

Systematically clear twelve houses in predetermined sequence, looting 24-36 hidden stashes.

Enter through back doors, clear in 30-45 seconds, exit to next building.

Expect 12-18 cards per 20-minute run with 85-90% survival rates.

Recommended Loadouts

Speed-Focused: Lightweight armor (Level 2-3), minimal ammo (3-4 mags), no backpack. Suppressed sidearm for emergency defense.

Container Keys: 2-3 blue keycards (8,000 Koen each), 1 red keycard (25,000 Koen).

Budget Loadouts: 15,000-25,000 Koen total, generating 35,000-55,000 Koen equivalent per successful raid.

Premium Loadouts: 60,000-90,000 Koen, enabling 100,000-150,000 Koen equivalent returns through locked container access.

Advanced Tips

Container Respawn Exploitation

Containers don't respawn within raids, but understanding raid cycling enables indirect exploitation. High-population servers cycle every 25-35 minutes.

Queue immediately after extracting to maximize fresh instance chances. Delays of 5+ minutes increase probability of joining partially-looted instances.

Choose High population servers for rapid cycling and frequent fresh instances.

Time sessions around peak hours (7-11 PM local) for optimal instance turnover.

Market Timing

Trade limited-quantity items immediately. Every hour increases depletion risk.

Hold unlimited exchange cards until you've secured all limited items.

Consider holding 20-30% Legendary cards as insurance against late-event additions.

Monitor community for kiosk update rumors.

Common Mistakes

Trading Tier 1 before exhausting Tier 3-4 destroys long-term value.

Hoarding excessively creates opportunity costs. Players sitting on 50+ Epic cards without trading miss using rewards to enhance farming efficiency.

Ignoring survival rates proves counterproductive. 15 cards/raid with 40% death rate underperforms 10 cards/raid with 90% survival.

Failing to adjust based on server conditions wastes potential.

Stacking Event Bonuses

Pegasus Challenge (February 3): Daily missions provide 15,000-25,000 Koen without additional time.

Golden Gift Box (February 13): Premium ammo/medical supplies reduce loadout costs 8,000-12,000 Koen per raid.

Spring Festival Password Code (February 15): Bonus Koen through redemption. Previous events awarded 50,000-100,000 total Koen.

Lucky Kiosk Trade Priority: First 3 Exchanges

Trade #1: Highest ROI

Gilded Serpent weapon skin (8 Epic cards, 180,000 Koen, 150 redemptions) = 225% ROI.

Requires aggressive premium container farming February 3-8. Accumulate 12-15 Epic cards.

Alternative: Crimson Dragon rifle skin (5 Legendary cards, 250,000 Koen, 75 redemptions) if you've obtained 7+ Legendary cards.

Trade #2: Balance Gains

Tactical Ammunition Bundle (18 Rare cards, 42,000 Koen, unlimited) provides immediate utility while maintaining strong ROI.

Reduces farming loadout costs for subsequent raids. Savings compound across dozens of raids.

Alternative: Azure Phoenix armor skin (10 Epic cards, 125,000 Koen, 200 redemptions) for cosmetic-focused players.

Trade #3: End-Event Setup

If you've accumulated 400+ Common cards, execute high-volume Tier 1 trades (50 Common cards, 12,000 Koen, unlimited).

Clearance strategy maintains motivation by providing tangible returns.

Alternatively, if targeting Tier 5 (15 Legendary cards, 500,000+ Koen, 25 redemptions), execute another high-efficiency Epic/Legendary exchange.

Reassess total event goals after first three trades.

When to Deviate

Immediate deviation necessary when limited items approach depletion faster than expected.

Players with 10+ Legendary cards should prioritize Tier 4-5 over standard Tier 3 progression.

Time-constrained players should front-load all desired trades within first 3-4 days.

Post-Event Market Analysis

Cards Retaining Value

Legendary cards: Highest probability if trading becomes enabled. Scarcity could sustain 30,000-50,000 Koen per card.

Epic cards: Moderate value (8,000-15,000 Koen) through collector dynamics.

Common/Rare: Probably lose all value. Trade aggressively during event conclusion.

Event-exclusive items: Likely appreciate 150-200% in secondary markets 2-3 months post-event.

Investment Strategy

Hoard 5-10 Legendary cards if you've accumulated 15+ total. Balanced approach secures current value while maintaining speculative upside.

Trade all Common/Rare during final 48 hours.

Consider hoarding event-exclusive kiosk rewards rather than cards themselves.

Monitor official announcements during final week for hints about post-event card utility.

Historical Trends

Previous seasonal items appreciated 120-180% within 3 months. Limited-quantity cosmetics with sub-100 redemptions showed strongest appreciation.

Event currencies from past events became worthless post-event without conversion systems.

Weapon skins/cosmetics from limited-redemption exchanges consistently outperformed unlimited-redemption items.

FAQ

Where do greeting cards spawn most frequently?

Military supply crates and weapon lockers in high-security zones across Armory, TV Station, Northridge. Military crates show 85% card rates with best rarity distribution. For max efficiency, focus on Armory's warehouse complex (6-8 crates concentrated) and TV Station's broadcast tower (15-18 premium containers across three floors).

What should I trade first at Lucky Kiosk?

Gilded Serpent weapon skin (8 Epic cards, 180,000 Koen, 150 redemptions) offers 225% ROI and depletes within 24-48 hours. If you've accumulated 7+ Legendary cards, alternatively prioritize Crimson Dragon rifle skin (5 Legendary cards, 250,000 Koen, 75 redemptions) for higher returns.

How do I calculate Lucky Kiosk ROI?

Compare card acquisition costs against reward values. Epic cards require ~8-12 premium containers (50,000 Koen costs), Tier 3 rewards average 120,000 Koen = 140% ROI. Legendary cards need 20-30 premium containers (125,000 Koen) for Tier 4 rewards averaging 250,000 Koen = 100% ROI.

Which containers have highest drop rates?

Military supply crates: 85% (55% Common, 25% Rare, 15% Epic, 5% Legendary). Locked weapon cases: 95% (30% Common, 35% Rare, 25% Epic, 10% Legendary) but require 8,000-25,000 Koen keys. Weapon lockers: 70% with faster looting—most time-efficient for cards-per-minute.

Trade cards immediately or wait?

Trade limited-quantity items immediately to prevent depletion (50-300 redemption items exhaust within 24-72 hours). Hold unlimited exchange cards until you've secured all limited items. Retain 20-30% Legendary cards for potential late-event additions, but trade all Common/Rare during final 48 hours.
