29th May 2012 - SoF + Royal Costumes

Featured Replies

As Mad May draws to a close, we bid a fond farewell to spring by adding two exciting new costumes to the Squeal of Fortune. Not only do they look great, but they also represent something of a first for cosmetic items...

 

Starting with our content update today, on Tuesday 29th May, and running throughout the summer months, two impressive new clothing sets will be obtainable as unique prizes on the Squeal of Fortune. There are five pieces of clothing for each of the two must-have sets, so youll need to be feeling lucky in order to bag all ten. Dont forget, the more spins you have at your disposal, the better your chances are of snagging all the items and getting all of them is certainly something youll want to do!

 

Taking a space on the uncommon slots, the first outfit is the Queens Guard uniform: perfect attire for kick-starting a summer of regal rejoicing. The full set encompasses a Queens Guard hat, shirt, trousers, shoes and staff. Its everything a stalwart defender of royalty might need to perform their duties admirably.

 

Resting on selected rare slots, the second outfit is altogether more exotic and mysterious a set of Dragon Ceremonial clothes. Made in honour of the Queen Black Dragon, this elusive set consists of a Dragon Ceremonial Hat, Breastplate, Greaves, Boots and Cape. Were sure youll agree, they look as formidable as they do beautiful!

 

And, as if that wasnt cool enough, when you complete a costume, not only will you look awesome, but youll also be given the option to re-colour the outfits once equipped! Re-colouring is a first for cosmetic items of this nature, and its a big reason we think that these outfits will be so desirable.

 

As there are 10 cosmetic items in total up for grabs, were also pleased to announce that youll no longer need to worry about winning the same unique cosmetic item more than once. If youre fortunate enough to snag one of these items, it will always be one you dont have yet.

 

One last thing! Dont forget that RuneScape members get 3 spins on the Squeal of Fortune instead of 2 for every day they log-in during Mad May. Since May isnt over yet, you can maximise your chances of bagging the goodies above by making sure youre still subscribed. Subscribe now and claim those extra spins!

These kinds of things make me feel really bad for the people who go nuts if they can't obtain every single limited-availability cosmetic item

sof ftw :P

Don't forget to buy some spins so you'll have a chance in hell of getting these items before they're gone!

 

Seriously I can't think of a worse cash grab. Jagex is sinking even lower than my opinion of EA at the moment. That's a real [bleep]ing trick, too.

It's times like this that I'm very glad that I've put off questing for so long haha.

Stop thinking. It's Runescape.

It's good that you have all summer to somehow win 5 rare drops... It's not like the set will take up 1-4 bank spaces and probably look silly without the full set if you don't. <_<

 

That and you can't store them, destroying said items is not optional and it makes obtaining the limited items pointless because it's luck-based. This way of using the wheel for obtaining these items is just disgusting.

oeh :D

 

Even more cannonfodder for me to use...

I'm sure they'll be back some time after the "summer months" availability period. Remember the katana, turkey hat, green skin etc.? They reused those for other promotions involving membership cards and whatnot. Same will happen with the monkey themed items, I presume. They just can't resist reusing these cash-grab promo items.

This for sure, but it's still 100% lame to make it 'limited'.

This may be some indication that people aren't buying spins as much as Jag would like (durr?) and expect spin buys to ramp up while people enter the "MUST-HAVE" delirium.

It's been released for all of what, 6 hours, and you already have all 10 pieces??? :blink:

 

I guess they're not quite so rare, eh?

Mother of god...you got ripped off. That is far from a very nice looking cosmetic set(s)!

 

I hope you enjoy them though, but by my books that looks goofy lol.

I might of bought 650 spins today, but I have 150ish left and had a truck load of double spins, like 60-70 spins per 50 bought spins.

Also got me from just over 90 prayer to like half way to 93 so far (including varrock elite completion lamps)

 

@Above I kinda like em, the royal guard stuff works best on blue/purple so the hat matches better and the dragon one looks equally good on any colour thanks to black.

Quite underwhelming I must say, the dragon cape is pretty cool looking but provides no stats so could only use outside combat. How much did that cost you? Saw some guy on the rsof say he bought 450 spins and it took 350 to get the full set of dragon ceremonial
