keven2002 said: Grimbeard said: What would be the developers reason for saying luck matters if it didn't? Because luck matters for some things but not all; which has been confirmed by the Devs. The problem is that everything is sup…

Pawain said: I found my sheet of different Triton Builds I made on TC. Healing does not count. All of these combinations fit the rules. @Pawain I see that the 3rd build of the first row is quite packed having Whirlwind AttackBushidoArm…

Pawain said: This is from 2019 but nothing has changed. https://community.stratics.com/threads/triton-builds.409087/ Popps is there talking about his Triton. I wonder why he is not using it on nests. There have been a "few" pets past the …

Rocko said: @ popps Can you give us the pet you want to train? There are some nuances to training pets. If you name the pet type I can walk through how I would train it. The way I would train a pet relies heavily on guidance from the wiki,…

Ahua said: Thanks Pawain for linking the official page. I guess I should have read the official documentation before reading other websites, it got me confused, but I vote for adding this limitation clearly written in game, because as many of…

Pawain said: There is a limit to what you can add to a pet. You may only select a total of Three options, two from the first 3 categories shown here and one from the magical abilities list. Select in the order shown below, magical ability l…

Grimbeard said: gggghhhh0987 said: Mordeed said: Over 800 deco eggs collected, 3 effigies but no mature egg yet. I do 1-5 hrs a day since the event started a mix of hidden chests, nests and matriarch. I feel it's about time …

Mordeed said: I've been using a Naja with FWW and PB , takes care of greater nests really quickly but have to split the mobs on the biggest nests Still no mature and no more effigies for me Still no mature and no more effigies for me It i…

gggghhhh0987 said: Why do some players have so many mature eggs that they could open a factory? Meanwhile, those of us who have invested just as much money and time in the game, the real players, don't have a single mature egg. It's really st…

Pawain said: That's Stax house. He does Nests and Matriarch. I have sold him and given him many Nest maps. But most of those are from him buying in chat and selling on a safe for a higher price. You can talk to the stax bot at Luna St…

keven2002 said: Venom said: I've done 100+ nests, all greater or above (majority grand or massive) and no mature egg for me. I use 3,000+ luck (and have tried 5,000+ luck for 4 massive, too). Even an increase in chance is just that -- …

Mordeed said: Not had any so far, maybe difficult but not unreachable I have had them spawn in Destard down a hole which had no way into, in Deceit on top of the stairs from lower level to higher lever where one is incapacitated to get near…

Victim_Of_Siege said:Popps, while your dedication to cataloging every conceivable grievance is admirable in its own way, there comes a point where the lamentations begin to sound less like constructive feedback and more like a dirge for imagi…

Pawain said: 500 is not many eggs. I would also like to hear what would be "too many" regular eggs... to me, 500 seems a real lot... especially considered that there is no container to hold them all (a container holding like 500 eggs but c…

Ahua said: This is certainly a multi faceted problem, pun intended. I mean the whole conversation although full of arguments, is still up for grabs. Are they supposed to be a fun reward, or something really rare? And if there is real rari…

Petra_Fyde said: I haven't gotten an egg from a hidden chest. I've found an awful lot of chests, with and without added luck, but I have got a few effigies, ingredients to make those sleeves, gems to imbue those slayer weapons I make so many …

KroDuK said: @ popps I had to finish your message.. you were in fact building your own narrative, by missing the point/story.. You already have the answer u just didn't see it. You are asking to keep a flag on every single character (ATL s…

KroDuK said: popps said:The demand would indeed drop and so the reasons for BOTers and Scripters to BOT train and script. That is at least how I see it. You are assuming bots only do it to sale for IG gold or RMTers.. These bots are ac…
-
Bots exist because there is demand, and demand exists because not everything is instantly and universally obtainable. If you replace RNG with a Doom‑style punch‑card counter, the bots will not pack up and retire; they will simply optimize the counte…

KroDuK said: popps said:Some players can almost reach 6,000 Luck for.. Luck is artificially hard cap around ~3500 luck. (you pin point that number with google) Like I said before, u totally ignore the odds.. let's say you have two cha…

Victim_Of_Siege said: Popps, what you’ve essentially outlined is the classic “if only we guaranteed drops, bots would pack up and go home” argument which, to put it politely, is about as convincing as saying burglars would stop breaking into…
-
Victim_Of_Siege said: As for bot trains, they’ll always exist because someone will always try to brute‑force the RNG. Designing the entire drop system around stopping them is like banning cars because some people speed. I think otherwise...…

vortex said: I have around 2800 luck. But I play cause I enjoy it and if I get a egg that's nice but not the end of the world of I don't. Popps do you get any enjoyment from this game cause it doesn't look like it everything is a grind and y…

Mordeed said: Ive given up for the time being, I found all I was doing was hunting for a egg and not enjoying the game. All my event points have been spent on massive maps and I really want some of the other stuff. hours and hours, lots and …

keven2002 said: There is a thread over in stratics where people posted that they got their mature egg with the added luck. How about you add YOUR findings @ popps with actual data? How many hidden chests have you done? Sounds like not many …

Petra_Fyde said: For massive, it's not so much which template as which tactics. When using my tamer, I use a Najasaurus and park it off screen while I dig the nest. Invis when the mobs come up and then run to the pet. This splits up the mobs …

Pawain said: Doing nests would help decide what type template you would like to try for T maps. You can concentrate on the killing part and see which style you prefer, then modify to add the T hunting skills in. For Tmaps I used a guy with …

Pawain said: @ popps why are you the only player having issues with the chests? There's at least 3 other places to post, you are the only one having trouble making a template and doing the content. Frankly, I do not understand it... I real…
