I wasn't going to be on but was able to slip on and cube. 4 packs of blacks and 3 packs of reds. I used 32 black cubes on my unique cape and it didn't rank up but was able to get two items to Legendary.

1 craftsman + 1 red cube on badge rank to unique(from epic)
Used the rest(11) on my cane because I thought it'd rank up as quickly, nope. 7%atk became 4%all, so I lost range from what I started with. Meh.
After reading the above, I'm not cubing during these anymore until Nexon actually improves rates.

I think the sheer lack of actual blue messages for rank ups speaks for itself. This is definitely not the same as previous miracle times.

I had bad luck myself and most people did have bad luck, but you apparently don't get a blue message if you ranked up using black cubes.

40 meister cubes on my unique sword, no rank up.
Reading everyone's else's results, I'm now debating whether to use the rest of my red coins on cubes or protects... Think there's any chance Nexon will improve the rates before the afternoon's Miracle Time? If people yell loud enough? Nah, it's Saturday...

Mazz is an outlier. His data doesn't count.

Imo, I see a lot of blue messages in Windia, but they are by different people. Some got lucky, and you can't tell how many cubes they're burning through to actually get their items to rank up. No offense to anyone, but that amount of NX spent on cubing makes me sad somehow... And even more so when they get little to nothing in return. Can't tell and will never know what the rates are as Nexon may just rig it as they'll just announce it with nothing changed just to get people to spend NX.
I managed to craft 18 cubes (9 Master craftsman's and 9 Meister) and used them all on this miracle time. Nothing ranked up, but I did get relevant stats on a few items. It might really be bad luck when it comes to ranking up. Honestly though, I think I had way better luck cubing things at my own pace (just going for relevant stats) with crafted cubes without miracle time. I manage to rank up several things using crafted cubes pretty often... At least for the record and on my own experience, I had several stuff rank from rare to unique usually within 10 crafted cubes for each tier per item. I have yet to actually get something to Legendary with the Meister cubes though.

Damn, I should've read the thread before using up my RED coin budget.
Would've been better spent on Awakening Stamps.

1 red cube to go epic-> then 14 or so to get decent stats. Never going to mess with carved. Seems to take about 125 or so red cubes to rank uniq-> legendary on average.

2nd bonus pot cube rare>unique, 10th cube rare>unique, 70 more cubes until I got another rare>unique. Along the way I ranked three items from rare>epic.
2nd red cube went unique to legendary. Used 22 black cubes with one equip going unique>legendary.
Looking at the responses it seems bonus pot cubes are doing well. I haven't had this kind of luck with those cubes ever.

When everyone's "unlucky", in a game where the odds are determined by the company, that's called "getting shafted".
It is possible that when making double and triple sure that Miracle Time works with bonus potential cubes (because people kept asking about that), they someone made it not work for regular potential cubes. That might explain why the Carved Cube results are pretty good overall, but the rest seem no better than any other day.

Used 8 meister cubes and got went from 6% dex + 6% att -> 6% td still unique. I have another 3 I can try with later, but as always I expect nothing. It would be nice to at least get some %boss.

I did get one unique to go legendary, but I don't think there was the any message like there would be for superior cubes. If its true that black cubes never gave the blue messages, then I think its likely Nexon forgot to add them to the event list, and they were not doubled at all.
Looks like others are thinking the same:

Wow you got a good run, not sure if that's because of how many cubes you used or just lucky  .
Edit: Read the post about this on nexon forums, what are the chances if indeed they messed up normal cube rates, will anyone be compensated (lol don't laugh)?

Used 24 black cubes and 24 red cubes and no rank ups. I got some decent lines at least, but there goes my NX budget for the year.
