    Default 53 gold coins cashed in

    On Gold Coin 43 cashed in I received a Brooch of Shielding, for 50 Magic Missiles to be absorbed, then it crumbles to dust. Whee......

    Received in House P.

    From what I have heard, this could be the worst surprise Festivult!! item given out. Others get +4 tomes, +3 tomes, SunBlades, Dwarven Throwers, 100K platinum, +5 Green Steel Items. Oh well. Can I have some cheese to, please?

    Irian - 15 cakes - 28.30%
    Xyzzy - 13 cakes - 24.53%
    Fernia - 10 cakes - 18.87%
    Risia - 14 cakes - 26.42%

    One Brooch of Shielding

    Thread of the week!

    On a serious note: You didn't think that you could just turn in 50 coins and get a +4 tome did you? There has been one +4 tome from the Jester (to my knowledge.) Any idea how many coins have been turned in? This isn't "Everyone wins a trophy day."

    On the bright side it looks like the 4 gold cakes all drop at about the same rate.

    Default My suspicions on Gold Coins

    See Boldrin's post below.

    He has turned in over 600 coins and received two dwarven throwers,(i found mine in quest in Three Barrel Cove) and brooches of shielding. Now, I have one of those. Whee.

    An Aside, I had no idea what I was going to get. I was hoping to get something good, but with the luck that I have on getting treasure in this game, I knew my odds were better of meeting a beautiful women online, that really wants to see me, than getting one of these rare tomes.

    Oh, I have never met a beautiful woman, an ugly woman, any woman, or even a man from online. (And I do not plan on it.)

    I personally have turned in over 600. got 2 dwarven throwers and 3 brooches of shielding. Spent 6 million plat so far, and I'm sure I'll spend more before it's over, lol. But hey it's like buying scratchoff tickets, addicting.

    Default Finally proof of what I heard but never got a SS

    Okay, who can point to the +4 tome link not been photoshopped

    Be careful what you wish for, what you say is best; for sometimes what you seek is found, not at the end of the quest.

    Check the original thread (on Ghallanda forums, I think). Multiple people placed screenshots of said tome in their trade window when the puller showed it to them. One of them was the illustrious guildleader of Southern Tenant Farmers Union.

    It was also confirmed by Turbine employees that the tomes are in the loot table, but are extremely rare

    I feel cheated. I turned in nearly 500 coppers today and only had four gold...

    Default +4 tome

    Personally saw the +4 tome in the trade window. Didn't believe him till i saw it for myself. The person who pulled it is a guildie of mine. Plus, the devs did comment on it.
