"it's supposed to be rare, that's the point"

well if it's so rare nobody has one, then there is no point at all. If you never see it then it's to rare, makes no sense to be in the game at that point.

Well ppl do have 1 thus its not too rare.

You just are having some bad rng like everyone else who dont have one yet.

Jagex needs to keep a float. they threw a bait & lured people into buying keys & membership. they got money possibly more then they estimated.

and your excitement or disappointment has no preference to them. Just go with a flow & hope for best for you & your fellow players.

Instead of relying on RNG they should have made it effort based. such as meting a certain goal. That way everyone who made an effort will get one and those who didn't try at all will be out of luck.

Imagine grinding the entire event, opening hundreds or thousands of gifts to get no GSH or gold present only for your friend to get it first try without playing much at all.

I'd be happy for my friend sure, but I'd be very annoyed by the system.

When it can come from just a blue present and sold for only 3.6B at this very early stage, I guess it may not be extremely rare.

Ppl go thousands of kills dry or millions of xp dry of pets so how is this any different?

Nothing needs to change except ppl learning to deal with rng.

I mean you do know basically everything runs off rng in the game right?

Pets are not tradable and so have no value. Lets use HSR as an example. That's extremely rare, possibly the rarest non discontinued item in the game. The point is that although rare it's ALWAYS available as a drop. That's a huge difference.

Green Party Hats are ALWAYS available as a drop from blue, purple and gold presents too. What's the "huge" difference?
