Summary:
When saying "I hate it" or randomly getting a partner reward box by being over 100 likeability, it is not possible to get the special gift box anymore. It is supposed to be a 50% chance at a special gift box when saying "I hate it."

Difficulty:
Normal

Occurrence:
Always.

Details:
Conceited Maid Personality, anywhere from 200-247 likeability (Maybe there is overflow when using likeability candies that's causing issues). I've attempted this more times than I'd like to admit, no I am not unlucky =p

I've noticed this with Butlers of different personalities as well. I feel like they did a patch that they either didn't advertise enough, or didn't mention at all. Since Partners and Partner Likability Increase Candies are paid goods, this should really get some sort of official notice. I don't think it was every that good of a message to bully your Partners to get goods like this, but for what its worth Partners still do reward the special gift boxes when surprising you with a gift (though this is far more random).

I tried this on all 5 of my partners just now and I also did not get any Special gift boxes: William, Laighlinne, Commerce Partner, Butler (Stoic), and Maid (Clumsy)

my two Butlers are Friendly and Aggressive (so unlike Snowie's Stoic) and I've tried a number of times on both

instead of getting a Special Gift Box when the 50% Roll succeeds as it was before the change, I just get a Regular Gift Box

which again, is really only an issue because I don't remember any official notice? and all of the items used to attempt to get this reward are from the Cash Shop or Gachapon (even if I acquire my Candies from the Auction House)

I have to report the same here, I recently made a post in the help channel asking if anyone has had any success with receiving special gift boxes as I've personally been trying for weeks on multiple partners. There are items in those boxes that are exclusive and are only found when opening them, and are the main reason I purchased multiple partners in the past.

What I think might have happened actually has to do with the Special Reward boxes being different between NA and Korea.

#

Looking at the official drop rates for items from the Korean Partner Special Gift Box, it has a lot less rewards than ours.

#

I don't think I've gotten anything other than Dyes and Maid/Butler outfits when opening the few Special Gift Boxes I was able to get randomly when talking (since that method is not broken atm for NA)

#

So a number of things might have accidentally been changed with NA's partners (maybe the changes happened when Partners were altered to allow them to be placed on Homesteads https://mabinogi.nexon.net/news/68890/reflections-patch-notes-september-9th-2021 though there are a number of other suspicious Patches too...)

@glacial sparrow @hollow canopy @winter yoke if you've opened any boxes can you comment on what you've managed to get?

Elite Passes don't drop from any version of the Special boxes.

#

Only the regular boxes from all regions drop passes as far as I know

I have not opened any special boxes, as the problem is I can't receive any. I haven't received any special boxes via the method of talking once a day and getting one my chance. But I only have one maid (would have bought far more this blk friday had this function been working ;) )

#

I've tried quite a few times since, but I made this post 8 months ago so at some point you have to give up spending so much gold to try something clearly broken

For the past year I've had on and off grinds of trying to get special maid boxes and can comfortably say with 40-50 or so attempts I have not gotten a single one
