Notes
The mirrored lockbox is the only lockbox that was also part of a promotion and therefore able to be directly purchased. They were introduced with release 2012-04-18 and still needed a silver key to be opened. Its prize pool features usables. All other lockboxes originate randomly from the prize wheel and feature accessories.
: It is likely that the Iron Lockbox has been phased out of the game by the more recent monthly lockboxes, considering that the iron lockbox does not have a slot in the monthly rotation, and most of its possible prizes are spread across the pools of the other six. Several iron lockboxes remain in player inventories and show up on the Auction House if players choose to list them.
Iron lockboxes have been obtained from the prize wheel in the few moments that span the transition between one month's box and the next.
