"Bonus" Rewards from Miscellania

[All_Bogs]

Hmm... so what we really need now is a pic of the bonus from fishing. So someone needs to put in at least a 50% effort in to fishing to check that out. All of the other bonuses look like they've had quite a good bit of confirmation. The teak/mahogany is still a little disputed, so if someone wants to do 50%+ in rare woods, but not in maples (so the bird nests from maples don't look like they're from the rare wood) and then anything else.

 

 

 

Fishing, 50% effort, 100% approval, maximum money drain (75k):

 

220 Tuna, 66 Swordies, 3 uncut gems (1 saph 2 emerald) and one casket.

[Pirkka]

Decided to post this here too. 100% on rare trees (both) and 50% on mining. I got a nest. So, it's possible.

 

 

 

[Xeith]

Thats cool. How much money did you have invested?

[Artemis_42]

I wonder if there is a distinct connection between the money invested and rares you get. I remember a person posting that with a 500k investment, a filled maple bar and 100%, they got 5 mests. I did the same, and had the same result (although the seeds were different, I had 3 banana seeds, an acorn and a red egg.)

 

 

 

I set it to the same yesterday, and later today i'll see if my results are the same. If results like this are not uncommon, this could potentialy be a half-decent source of money or farming exp.

Awesome, so that's confirmed.

Ok, so this shows that fishing gives either gems or caskets, thx! :)

 

Oh actually, what was your other job? If it was mining that might have been where the gems were from, but I'm guessing you made sure the gems were from the fishing, I'm just checking :wink:

Well, the money in the box is definitely related to how many bonus items you get. This is because the more money in there, the more of the resource you get, and with more of that resource there's a bigger chance to get bonuses.

 

 

 

It's like chopping trees yourself for bird nests. The more you chop, the more bird nests you'll get (ignoring luck, because it will work out this way eventually). So giving more money chops more wood and gets more bonus items.

Hmm So they do give nests... but you say you had 100% on rare woods... and only ONE nest so you can get nests but prob a rarer chance then maples I would say

[Xeith]

So this is what the "bonus" seems to be so far.

 

 

 

Maples: birds nests

 

Rare wood: decreased birds nests

 

Coal: Gems

 

Herbs/Flax: ?

 

Farming: rare/tree seeds

 

Fishing: Gems and caskets

 

 

 

Does that seem right? And has anone confirmed that though a slim chance you can get the "bonus" from 50%.

[Flippi273]

100% 750k in

 

 

 

[Xeith]

Nice. So that proves that 50%, at least in minning, can give a bonus. I get to collect mine in a little while so I can see what i get with 100% maples and 50% minning.

[Xeith]

 

 

 

Today's gatherings. 595 maple logs 1 apple tree seed 1 curry tree seed 1 willow tree seed and one maple tree seed 182 coal and 1 ruby. 100% approval ratting 500k in coffers 100% maples and 50% coal.

 

 

 

Edit: sorry the picture is so bad

[kwimbob]

I confirmed the 50% myself before I added it. I also have the list of all the bonuses on my first post if you check it out.

[gotsol]

what quest is required to do this?

[kwimbob]

Throne of Miscellania is required.

 

 

 

Royal Trouble will the boost all your rewards and also allow you to get seeds and rare wood.

[Flippi273]

Might want to say that its rarer to get birds nests on teak and mohgani then it is for maple trees.

K, good point.

The low nest drop rate of rare trees can mean that Jagex have prepared for the Construction madness. A lot of people will cut teaks and mahagony so the high nest drop rate could spoil tree seed market. To avoid this the drop rate of nests is so small. don't know though if this is true when you cut your teaks and mahagonies by yourself. I while ago nest drops from mahagonies were very good. You could get 1 nest per 10-12 minutes on average. Drop rate for maples was worse for sure.

 

Another conclusion that we can make is that you get ~1 nest per 100k invested in maples. The ring/seed ratio is about 50/45 leaving the 5% for eggs.

[nielsdek]

is there a good reason for me to get rare wood when i dont intend on burning or selling them?

[cardovilian]

100% fishing, 50% mining with 100% approval and 75k paid out gave me this:

 

 

 

 

 

 

From the way its laid out I'm guessing the emerald came from the mining and the rest from the fishing.

[Artemis_42]

I forgot to post what I got from Miscellenia yesterday, so I guess i'll post it now. The bonus rewards were the same, however considerably less impressive. two saphire rings, a gold ring, diamond ring (I never even knew you could get those from a nest) and a willow seed.

 

 

 

The amount of money I put in was the same as yesterday. My current theory is that you get one nest per 100k in the coffers when its set to 100% maples, and 50% rare wood. I set it to the same yesterday, and i'll post my results when I can collect again. If the same happens, i'll then put in 600k, and see if my results improved as such.

 

 

 

(and this time I'll try to get a picture :roll: )

[Lauts]

100% approval

 

 

 

90% on mahagony

 

60% on maples

 

 

 

What i got: 535 maples, 5 nests (green egg :) ), 200 mahagony <-- in same order, so i think no nests from rare trees

I think i have to agree. I had 500k in the coffers and got 5 birds nest.

[kwimbob]

Yeah... I put 750k in and got 8 bird nests, so that actually seems accurate.

[Flippi273]

Alright today I figure I try 100% maple and 50% farming

 

 

 

 

 

 

2 birds eggs, now i have 1 green and 3 blue eggs (no red :()

 

 

 

100% approval and 750k in coffers

 

 

 

Bonuses:

 

Maples - 3 banana, 2 acorn, 1 orange (eggs too)

 

Farming - apple tree

[Artemis_42]

As promised, I have todays reward (this time with a picture :D )

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think this now porves my theory that the bonuses you get are not determined by luck, but wholey by the money put into the coffers. (I'll update this with the seeds when I look in the nests)

 

 

 

EDIT: They contained, 1 gold ring, 1 saphire ring, an apple tree seed, a curry tree seed and an acorn.

I agree. With maple, every single day I've gotten 8 bird nests. They've been getting 75k and had 100% approval and workers in it. I believe that what someone said earlier, that maple's bird nests are worth 10k each at 100% approval and effort, is correct and that it always rounds up. My 75k always gets rounded up to 8 bird nests from the maples.

 

 

 

I also always got 1 guam seed when flax had 50% effort and I had 100%/750k for them. It's true that bonus rewards aren't luck (though bird nests and caskets can include different things as always).
