The rewards don't look very good to me but the event is actually decent.

I have actually seen more players doing Evil Tree and hoping world to look for Howie, and monkeys running in circle in Ape Atoll than ever the last couple of years.

At least, it seems to bring some lifeform back to the surface of Gielinor instead of a instance. :D :D :D

I'm probably one of the few who actually think this bingo card is one of the less time-consuming w/o buying any keys.

2 freebie stamps/card and with some luck on dailies you can easily block the time consuming tasks (I admit the 200 god jadinkos is ridiculous) and have some nice chores to do at weekend one perhaps normally wouldn't do while scaping. Of course this is only if you're a high-lvl, but that goes for all the bingo cards.

Imo these are way better than the "collect 10k currency" events if I had to choose.

The rewards are kind of wierd considering only a marginal amount of ppl would probably do this just for them.

The best thing is you don't have to do this at all if you don't want to! (Only cosmetics)

Normally I don't mind doing these bingo cards despite popular opinion. Death lotus was fun and zombie was a little hard, but doable. But this bingo card is asking way too much. Making 25 nihil pouches, catching 200 god jadinkos, and several other tasks that require a huge grind effort to even start the task. I feel this is a bit of an overstretch in effort over a cosmetic I'm going to barely use. I enjoyed the challenge of the previous cards and know the point of this is for people to buy spins, but this is kinda ridiculous. O_o

These bingo cards have become more like bin-go cards. Just want to shove them right into the bin. They went from "Hey this looks neat, lets try it," to "Ugh, another strictly timed to-do list making the game feel like an oppressive slog." They could be enjoyable content if they were more like the achievement diaries/task list that stayed around and you could slowly conquer the lists, blending a section or two into the monotonous daily grind.

If the goal is to get people to buy keys then good luck. I won't be planning on it or be enticed to do so. Just do something like those journeys and butterfly patterns that had no way to advance other than keys.

I'd rather just see a pet and re-colorable outfit added to Solomon store.

Yes indeed. This one is actually very fast because most items required can be bought from GE. Not much grind needed actually.

Use the 2 stamps Howie give you on the Barrow Item and the nihil pouch ones. If you have extra stamps use the next one on the 200 god jardinkos ones. The rest are very fast actually.

I am on the 3rd round now. Looking to complete everything tomorrow. :D :D :D

Perhaps the fewer people that do these Gamble Cards "Bingo" the more Jagex will listen, I personally won't be doing it at all, if I get any stickers from TH from dailies I will convert to gp if thats not an option the stickers will be placed in bank unused.

making 25 nihil pouches doesn't sound bad but when you realize you have to kill them for the ingredients and do it 5 times for the pet, that puts it into perspective. very boring.... sad


25 ingredients was actually pretty fast, and you can have them as slayer task, have dmg enhancer etc... Plus the drops are pretty decent.

All the tasks are quite achievable and for me at least, enjoyable.

Maybe Jagex could introduce content like this some other way than TH, which pushes the majority of ppl away.
