    Default Shhhhh Don't poke the bear....

    Aren't Daily gold dice over at the end of the year? Has there been any word on the supposed new and improved VIP benefits?

    If they follow typical SSG timeframe, daily gold roles will stop on December 31st as planned, and then IF SSG gets around to improving VIP benefits, it'll be around March.
    If I can read the dev tracker, you can too.

    Coincidently the same year they'll be releasing the next new content that is not either an expansion pack or a mini expansion pack.

    I thought they said daily gold rolls for a year and they were brought in at the anniversary. so they should continue for a while yet.

    Nope.

    EDIT : Added actual announcement rather than wiki copy/paste.

    ALSO: VIPs now get daily Gold Rolls on Daily Dice for the remainder of 2022 (through 11:59pm Eastern (-5 GMT) on December 31st, 2022)!

    From https://www.ddo.com/update-notes/ddo...-release-notes

    2nd EDIT: Should note that it was still going at 09:00 GMT on the 1st

    I stand corrected. However with all the down time and the little roll back you would think they might extend it a day or two lol

    You would think they might care about their player base and exhibit goodwill.

    Ore care about being functional human beings enough to communicate.

    Currently 10:26 PST and gold roles still going, probably need a server shutdown to turn them off.

    I'm perfectly fine with leaving daily gold rolls for VIP, also increase VIP XP bonus to 15%-20% permanently. BUT give 1% (or increase to 2%) per party member for everyone for the game health sake.

    I'm f2p player (well mainly, got VIP few times) for over a decade (simply because I've unlocked everything with DDO points bought or earned) and with the above I won't have a feeling of pay2win and I would consider VIP from time to time.

    If daily gold rolls are continued I will also continue my vip when it expires. If it's not why would I bother? The only reason I was vip this last year was daily gold rolls. Other vip incentives would make vip even better.

    What on earth is the matter with you people?

    A few days before Christmas, I paid for one month of VIP so I could take advantage of the +15% EXP for VIPs as well as the daily gold rolls.

    I'm gonna be ticked if you serial complainers cost me a couple of weeks of gold rolls and my chance at the gold roll Nightmare.

    I have not rolled any other mount. Would be nice if we could trade them in for another mount or only gift them to another player. Make them not auctionable but tradable. I don't know just a idea.

    I've never rolled a mount since the gold rolls were a thing back whenever they came in. Thats on 2 VIP accounts over several servers

    I checked last year and I rolled one 100 roll in the entire time we had daily rolls, on all those accounts.

    I rolled 11 1's and around 50% of my rolls were 20% or under.

    Should add also that none of my 3 other buddies I roll with has ever rolled a mount in the same time period.

    I would say your VERY VERY VERY lucky to even get one.
