I've only come across one 75 box. It was on my RK and it contained two jewelry pieces, bracelet and neck, one for agility and one for might/agility. Needless to say I was thrilled to receive such beautiful BOUND pieces on my RK. In to my vault they went as a constant reminder not to spend any time actually farming these things. This way when I'm disappointed it's completely random and no extra time was wasted.
Had a hobbit drop a box last night when I was collecting legs and feet in Hoarhollow. Bought a key from the store. Got a greater sigil and 50 Elf ears. Used the sigil on the Armoured Fire Orc appearance.
True Goat, we probably know the same 3 people but how many loot boxes they had to go to get that symbol?
Quite true, I know two of them were farming for them for five days straight lol

1 x75 box containing a drake damage scroll.
Both box and key were drops and I wasn't farming for either. If I collect any more I collect them as and when, I'm not going to go looking specially.
I'm becoming increasingly frustrated at getting boxes that do not yield sigils. Other people seem to find them after only a few boxes they have opened. Is there some conspiracy going on, some tag on my account that lets every other possible loot to drop except the battle sigils?
I got one the other day it had 6 rhi sigils in it along with 3 item wear reduction scrolls, I paid 8 gold for the key hoping it was a symbol lmao

4 level 75 freep boxes. First 2 had jewellery piece and a ixp rune, 3rd had drakecleaver title and a small ixp rune, 4th had 30 t7 power pots. You do know the loot table is currently borked right?
I always seem to find lootboxes when I'm deeding in an area that's WAYYYYY below level for any of my characters. These ones I just sell on the AH. I have found a couple in areas that are on-level, but just one in the 70-75 range.
My RK got some tomes of dread removal and a small ixp rune, and my Captain got a housing item and a jewellery piece that was totally inappropriate for her class (typical). My hunter however got the 70-75 lootbox and got 25 7a Morale Potions.
Based on this thrilling lot of stuff, I don't buy keys from the LOTRO store, nor do I farm lootboxes. My hunter is my 'lucky' character and if that's the best she could do, the rest of them are doomed. LOL.

I've heard tale of PVP sigils dropping abundantly now from new-found lootboxes, and yet I'm not so encouraged to farm for hours on end as I have in the past. The dedication appearances creepside have been nice... there's nothing as deadly looking as a hairy pink spider that looks like a giant vampire va-jay-jay that has escaped its owner and is living merrily and freely in the wild.
The loot boxes are a nice idea, but the set items that come out of them at least need to be account bound. My LM has gotten 2 necklaces for 3 piece sets but one is obviously for a burg and the other is for a melee and they are BOUND to the LM!@. In other words, they are junk. Besides, just how many boxes would have to be opened before anyone got all 3 pieces for an entire set??
Over a course of 24 hours on 2 accounts i have 3 loot-boxes i got 2 w/in 15mins of each other from the HH hobbit and the DG slugs..little hesitent to open them hope i haven't use all my luck to get them
Farmed &&&& ton of slugs last night and this morning about 400+. got a lootbox and my friend gave me a key he didn't want because it was clogging his inventory. i got 50 Thistledown hides and a Greater Sigil of battle.
