With the introduction of the Festival boxes dropping from monsters, the override box event has ended earlier than intended. According to the v.187 notes it should continue for about 2 more weeks
Override Box Event
UTC: July 19 (after maintenance) – August 22 at 11:59 PM

Requirement: Lv. 33 and above (to use the box)

Hunt monsters within your level range (10 levels below and 20 levels above) to collect Override Boxes!
Open these boxes to receive one Override Coin and a random item.
You can obtain up to 60 Override Coins per day from these boxes.

When I hunt monsters, they only drop Festival boxes but no Overide boxes

    I don't have any screenshot, but I believe Event List in the game mentioned this event was ending the August 8 2017.

    Thank you for the reply. Is there a error in the patch notes then? Because clearly it says it ends on the 22nd Aug.

    Why do we get double coins from over ride boxes during the festival Saturday perks if the boxes aren't dropping in the first place? On the patch notes it reads

    The double amount of Override Coins are only from Festival Box. I haven't really paid attention, but now that you mention it, I think I havent noticed these boxes stop dropping, only getting Festival ones. But I still have Override Boxes in inventory, stack of 3k of them still and I can still open these.

    Yeah according to the patch notes the Overide boxes should still be dropping aswell as Festival ones:
