LOL. Being able to kill Telos is only one of numerous benefits of buying a membership.

It allows you to, not all players who subscribed are paying for the ability to do so.

Don't forget you can also get FREE Loyalty Points you can get auras and other goodies. You don't even need to hold down any keys. You can also get FREE items from Raffle too.

Let me rephrase that for you: In order to unlock an item that is considered absolutely essential to be good at bossing, you are locked behind a timegate. But don't worry, all you need to do is click a few buttons to get the item after said forceful time gate.

That would be exactly why its bad.

Let me sum all these up for you:

Getting a 200 mil gp prize from TH, or in fact any source (TH, membership, bonds, Premier Club or whatever) in the game is not a given, whether you pay real money or not. It is just one of the many benefits of all these payments to let you have a chance for the more "valuable" prizes.

Nobody is guaranteed any 200 mil or more gp prize/reward. Some may win 200 mil gp from TH if they are lucky. Some may kill Telos if they are lucky. In fact, you don't even need skills or abilities to kill Telos. You can use Deathtouched Darts too.

So what? Jagex never design every feature in their games to be exclusively relied on skills/abilities. What's the problem with somebody getting lucky to win 200 mil gp from TH? If there is a problem, then there is also a problem some members can pay to get Deathtouched Darts to get high value rewards too. :D

Not the same, it takes no effort to win 200m just like it takes no effort to win the billion dollar lottery. However, it takes effort to streak 999 enr telos just like it takes effort to start up and run a business in real life and become a millionaire.

Also using dtd? What a stupid idea, you're throwing 25m at telos per kill, you might as well drop your cash stack.

Don't you realize you can get Deathtouched Darts free from semi-regular events like Parcel Pet and Raffle. The only requirement is membership?

Don't say you need 25 mil to kill a Telos. It can be totally free.

Even better, you can open up an Oyster once a month and get billions gp worth. Again, all you need is just membership but nothing else.

Wrong, for raffle, you still need to log in on the correct days and for parcel pete, you need to do skilling, therefore not completely free. Plus its completely unviable to rely on those methods to earn money since the frequency you can obtain them is very low. Why do you think the average player uses the darts on nex or kk instead of telos? Those who use it on telos are only using it for the 100% enr req or to save their streak on emergency cases.

Wrong again, you need to complete the quest, and its also once a month only.

You can save 15 Raffle tickets to use on just one prize you choose in one go, Deathtouched Darts included. Likewise, you can save your TH keys for the choice of your promotions. Not much difference there.

Oh it is unviable to rely on using Deathtouched Darts to earn money but viable to rely on TH to earn 200 mil gp? Good joke. In reality, you always win something nice in the 100's of thousand of gp worth killing a Telos with a Deathtouched Dart but I have yet to win the 200 mil gp prize from TH even once and I have been playing TH almost everyday since it started.

Of course, players can use darts on Nex or KK, if they want to do "gambling" for a higher chance of getting something less valuable.

What? Completing just one simple quest that takes like minutes or participating in almost every kind of in game activities for guaranteed Parcel Pet loots is really that much trouble or require a lot of "abilities"?

Of course, what lead us to this point was your post on Page 3, Post 9:

"Lol how can you even make this kind of comparison. Paying membership does not automatically give you 200m and free telos kills, whereas buying keys will get you those prizes immediately for just holding down spacebar."


Glad you admitted with your last post that you didn't say winning 200 mi was viable. Buying keys will not automatically win you a 200 mil prize for just holding down spacebar.

TH is just not a viable way to earn gp. It has very little or no effect to most players in that area, and in fact, it has absolutely no effect on me since I have never won a 200 mil gp prize.

You're still clinging onto the same argument because you've missed my point, which is it takes effort, time, dedication to make 200m from telos, while th only requires holding space bar. So your comparison is moot. °l||l° Modest Skillers T7 Citadel | Skilling clan recruiting players. °l||l°

I believe contrary to what you claimed, most people "held down the space bar for years" and never hit the 200 mil gp prize even once from TH. At least, I didn't.

I don't care what you keep trying to make or change, my comment to OP and others who care about odds of games of chance remains:

Congrats to hitting a 200 mil gp prize. It is extremely against the odds but obviously achievable, and therefore don't count on it being a way to get large amount of gp prizes. TH is not a way to try to get 200 mil gp instantly, however, it is a good way to get yourself better prepared for making gp playing the game, especially through the highly common xp items and skilling resources drop.
