Thats not how rares became rare its the fact that alot of players quit are they were scammed away i myself remember when they ge came i sold a santa and it went up to like 50 mill over what it was and during the old dicing days i had lots of friends say they were scammed even had one quit over it I am maxed now and also can buy any thing i like in rs but thats why rares are rares ^^

So are the snowballs exp based? like killing npcs. How much exp to get snowballs?


no, because that would be fair.
theyre earned randomly, similar to how keys are randomly earned, only more frequently.

I'd like to add that these new rares are designed to be rares from the day 1, they are very limited. The old rares were never supposed to be rares, they were thought to be fun items. You hate the game when really you should just hate the players and their greediness. But well, people are greedy, and people ranting about this are just envious.

Christmas and other events in the past have also brought the players
together to help each other out, not so in the tinsel trail where you
encourage stealing off each other.I Got so fizzed off that i now go to
a world with as few in as possible.
These so called rares are not at all, W2 seems like everyone has a Scythe
for sale,300 mil yesterday 150 mil today, so 10 mil by end of th/event :P
Now if some of these come from key buying, which i guess many do,its
another kick in the pants for non key buyers and a victory yet again for
the PAY TO PLAY.
As mentioned before i can't recall a key promo and xmas event before.
Yo Ho Ho, MMG is soon to go.Best christmas present of all.


I 100% agree with you this system is totally against what Christmas is about. The snakes being stolen is just a new sadistic troll method. Also the whole raffle thing is just awful. I wish they could do an event where you had to find players with common ground to accomplish a task and in the end everyone gets the item. Nobody wants tradeable rares and the people who do are ones who get excited seeing their gp stacks and or rwters.

I don't like it and this Jedi does not approve :<

i just got the scythe but can someone please tell me how many will be in game and will it be discontinued after


There will be just under 5000 scythes when the raffle "promotion" is over. I think they will be discontinued when the raffle is over on the 17th I believe. But who knows maybe in the end it will all be a big joke and we will get them for free. Btw consider yourself extreamly lucky. If I had that luck I would probably be playing the lottery to pay for living expenses.

What made the original "rares" rare wasn't the limited quantity and time frame of acquisition (though it played a major role), but the fact that those items came out over a decade ago and the majority of players who stockpiled them quit the game, taking them out of the system for good. Sure they were in a somewhat limited amount as they spawned everywhere in random intervals across the game, but the difference was that EVERYONE could get them if they wanted.

There was nothing about luck or chance involved and most of all, no microtransactions to boost the chances. Whoever came up with this plan completely missed the point of the holiday drops and of a holiday whose larger theme is giving gifts.
