Its pretty stupid to produce such a strong car with such a clear problem. XB4 is for stock drivers that go slow, or drivers with awesome skills. Most of us don't have awesome skills and no one goes into 4WD buggy to drive conservatively.

5.5t motor, high grip astroturf/carpet and no failures here. Set your slipper properly and avoid landing on full throttle (doing this to any car will result in failure).

The stock ring gear in the 410 is less durable than the plastic one in the xray. I also snapped multiple rear driveshafts and centre shafts on the 410. For me the drivetrain is not only efficient, it is also very durable.
