    Like Kali said. lol @ the luck system in this game. I still don't understand why I need to open thousands of arena crates for a chance at obtaining a fossil. Has anyone ever heard of ANYONE looting fossil from arena chests? I know there have been names put out there but who can confirm that theirs didn't just come from crates?

    Not to derail your topic Sera, but @ anyone who farms Arena, or any upper elite (Nordr, Shuyal, Tindirin, Planar Tombs), how much do you spend on elixirs, potions, ankhs and how much do you make on average?
    It all depends on luck.

    There are days that I spend 200-300k on farming (ankh kits, elixir kits, pots, etc) with nothing to show for it.

    Then, there are days where I loot a couple of planar chests, a few Elite Golden Dragonchests, AND save up enough fragments to buy and sell Breeze. Days like this, I can profit almost 2 million.

    I am generally a slow net positive, but, to be honest, it is a real grind trying to have positive cashflow through farming alone.

    There are weeks that I turn a profit of 4m, and there are weeks where I spend 2m with nothing to show. In the past month, I believe I am up about 3-4m total. But, keep in mind that this includes many, many runs with pro parties. Typically, when I run with PUGs I am net negative, since farming is slow and death counts/pot consumption are high.

    Yes, I agree they are a bit out-dated, and do not hold much value, but i was just asking for an opinion. Thanks for responding.

    Chances for recipe are auto-adjusted in order to don't flood Arlor with rare item

    I understand the need to limit the availability of farmable arcane items, but...Serancha has a point. I think it's difficult for STS to understand how frustrating such daunting odds are for an individual player. It seems as though STS doesn't often consider how things look from an individual player's perspective.

    The egg mythic rings are a great example of STS thinking only in terms of numbers and not from a player's perspective. A luck proc that probably won't happen at the critical moment you've worked hard to get to? Us players say, "Gee, thanks! :/" It would be better to have a 2.5% permanent luck increase for wearing a ring, that would be easier to swallow.

    What's that? 1/50,000 odds? Awesome, STS. Nothing like equal opportunity for people who actually play the game. Odds of arcane in crates is like 1/500
    Whitecaster, Hucre (2x), Angeldevil, Diggdugg, and now this guy. There may be some more I'm missing.

    I guess Pheonix and lb arena runners are an unlucky group.

    Ard, your luck is unnatural. You may not reply to luck based posts, whether it involves you or people with you - it's just plain creepy. :P

    It's disappointing to see that luck is mightier than skill AND hard work.
    800 ish runs here :/ No luck!
    Atleast you bough them. People like us cant Afford an Item which come as in Farmable Tag!
    Really Lol@luck in this game!
    The pend is so Op! Not having them means falling back!
    My eerie pot With eye gem and para gem is nothing in compare to the planar pend :/

    Saddest Part is,
    You get all the stuffs ready!
    Bar- check
    Cleansed essences- check

    Run arena 10-20 times in a day and no luck!
    You go back to inventory and see the essences still waiting for a recipe!

    Next day you think you might get lucky!
    You run 10-20 times again! No luck.

    You start to lose your stashed golds!!
    Days after days no luck!
    You pray to God, please drop one!..
    Nope.. nothing!!

    Then you see your friend who was a middle class like you, have gotten 2 recipes meanwhile and he used one and sold one and now he runs in much better gears!!
    You just give up and quit and come back after a month to see same scenario!

    - that's so me!
