Well after all the time, the effort the Jewelscalen fun..we've finally got to the wish chest. Great expectations and..well with little comment (the whole comment would need censoring) what we got:
100 PWI ragards..period
another user got 50 (level depentent? he was lower)

share with us my fellow uglies, what did you get? maybe it'll soften the pain of being joked at badly



on a side note: did anyone check if those valentine pigments are even tradable?

    100 pwi regards here. I will say the ladies got the better end of the deal and the men got the shaft. The least they could have done was add some xp to go with those!

    I'd say PWI implemented Valentine's Day quite accurately.

    Someone told me they got 5m coin.

    A fruit that gives 8888 exp and 2222 spirit can sell for 120k on heaven tears. From that, i would suggest that each exp point is worth 10 coins. And from this event, i easily lose out anywhere between 1-2 million worth of exp over the 4 days. even at 1 mil exp, i'll need 10 mil coins to break even. i am just greatful that i am not doing this for the stupid chest...
    1. If I kill you; do something about it yourself, don't go complaining to my wife.
    2. If you have less kill counts then me, don't expect me to take pk advice from you.
    3. If you are hiding behind an alt, don't expect me to acknowledge your existence.

    50 PWI's regards here too. 5m coins is definitely a stupid joke. The worst event ever for males. 3 hours of clicking mouse nonstop in 4 days = 50 PWI's regard **** that can't even sell since everyone gets the same thing. I wonder what the designers were thinking when designing this event. b:angryb:angryb:angry

    XP is only worth 10 coins a point at lvl 10 (the lvl requirement of the fruit). This event has a lvl requirement of 40 though so the marginal value of the lost xp is less.

    Chests have a loot table just like anything else so it may be possible for there to be something extremely valuable in the chest for some people.

    So your telling me that a level 10 will have 120k to buy the fruit. I don't even think you can get the fruit until lvl 40 (or 39). And i would bet that the fruit purchasers was toward the upper half (lvl wise) of the population.

    Pretty disappointed in this event. I wonder how many male characters would have spent 3+hrs picking roses had they known the rewards.

    I'm just glad my valentine picked over half the roses for me, I mean us, I mean her. <3 u Edya =)

    Simply hugely disappointing. As I posted on a different thread, the hope of this chest was the ONLY reason I continued with the quest after seeing the pitiful xp I received compared to the females.

    In future, there should at least be a list of the possible "rewards" (I use that term loosely) contained in a chest allowing us to weigh up whether the potential benefits are greater than taking time out from questing/grinding.

    How difficult can it possibly be to properly think through an event like this? I mean come on, all anybody so far has admitted getting from the chest is 50 or 100 PWI regards - basically **** stuff. Why on earth flood the maket with random pigments? Can it be so hard as to come up with a varied list of rewards ranging from decent to brilliant? Give us some kind of incentive to want to go back and pick more roses.

    Do you seriously believe ANY male is going to go through all that for another key to the chest? I think not!

    we get 50 Regards, which turn into roughly 12 pigments. If "lucky" and get 100 then thats just 25 pigments.

    So its barely 750k if lucky and 360k if only 50 regards. Consider now the ammount of random pigments that will flood the market, lower the prices in the attempt to sell before everyone else. Either way I would have rather have a decent chunk of exp or a better item than the hassle of selling for barely 750k if lucky

    Exactly. And to the females commenting who think we have got a great deal here, believe me we haven't. If you went through the hassle we did you would be complaining every bit as loudly.

    If at least a number of different items were to be found in chests then the market wouldn't be flooded to the extent it is now.

    Feel sorry for the guys in this event. I got 1.1mil exp over 4 days and guy got 80k and 100pwi regards from the chest. Not a great event...

    I think they should rethink their events a bit better make it fair to all.....

    Yeah, the exp gain is just insanely disproportionate. I wouldn't have minded if it had been a slightly bit more exp to the women but a difference of over a mill exp in 4 days is just insulting.

    you think you can sell them for 30k each? So naive. Who is gonna buy them since everyone has a lot of them.
