258ForLife Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 (edited) Thanks to player feedback, we have reviewed the quality and value of the prizes available on the Squeal of Fortune, and we’re pleased to announce that we will be making significant improvements to the drop rates and overall value of the loot on offer. With the launch of our next content update on Tuesday 29th May, each time you spin the Squeal of Fortune you’ll stand a greater chance of winning something awesome, courtesy of our revised, remixed and revitalised prize list. We’re confident that this revised selection of prizes will ensure that spinning the Squeal is not only more exciting than ever, but will also bring about some genuinely useful contributions to your ongoing RuneScape adventures. So, without further ado, we’re now able to confirm the following great changes to the Squeal of Fortune: •Ten times the chance to win super-rare cosmetic items!•More coin prizes added that will also appear more frequently, including 5,000, 50,000 and 500,000gp!•Coin prizes substantially increased in value, e.g. the 50gp prize is now 1000gp.•More useful common items in increased quantities.•New items swapped in to replace your most commonly discarded items including:◦Construction and Fletching supplies such as planks and logs.◦Crafting and Smithing materials, including leather and ore.◦More gems, from sapphire to diamond.◦Combat consumables such as arrows and runes.◦And much more!We’d like to reassure players that we have thought very carefully about which items to add, remove and increase the likelihood of.

J a c Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I like. If only they would take out buyable spins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheat Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Well it will definitely add to the excitement of spinning the wheel. Having said that though I imagine this will make people who are very unhappy about SoF even more unhappy.

Makoto_the_Phoenix Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 All the feedback that rejected the SoF hasn't been acknowledged yet, but all the feedback to improve the rates of the rewards is? *sigh* Well, for those that enjoy this, they get a few new perks and more chances to win the super rare stuff.

999134 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 hopefully lowers number of xp lamps? Check it out, huge amount of effort has gone into this massive mod![hide=old sig][/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Arcane Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 hopefully lowers number of xp lamps? That's what I'm expecting, and to be honest. I approve of the changes, it just needs to remove the buyable spins and maybe throw in a few more methods of getting tickets, and allow us to hold more spins.

J a c Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 hopefully lowers number of xp lamps?I was getting 200k exp in summoning a week from it! Please no don't take away my free exp! Just kidding though, they do need to take out some of the lamps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HunterDexter Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Do they actually think we CARE about those spins? (Except the fact that it's a microtransaction thingy...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vezon Dash Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I don't want them to lower the amount of lamps that we receive. I call the SoF a make up for the Effigy nerf, so I still want my 50k summoning exp per week from those free spins. I'd rather have 10k summy exp than 50k or some stupid cosmetic item any day of the week. @Hunter. Yes. Some of us do care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saradomin_Mage Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 hopefully lowers number of xp lamps? That's what I'm expecting, and to be honest. I approve of the changes, it just needs to remove the buyable spins and maybe throw in a few more methods of getting tickets, and allow us to hold more spins.My first reaction when I saw that they were adding raw materials was that hopefully they'd be removing / reducing the lamps, which would be great.Have to wait and see though, and not get my hopes up :P In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers.

Kimberly Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I'm so reassured that it's exploding out my eyeballs and my backside. But not really. To both the exploding and the reassuring. Still, improvements to a thing we're virtually stuck with (unless we want to see that damn goblin every login) can only be for the better. Making the best of a bad situation n' whatnot.

Stev Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 If they had really listened to feedback, they wouldn't be cramming SoF down our throats every other day. In-fact, there wouldn't be any SoF at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
