    @skye my hero! Thank you!
  • So just to confirm if we have the Elite Membership and we purchase credits now until the next promotion starts its 40% bonus?
  • TectonTecton The Garden of the Gods
    Correct!
  • @Tecton I do believe I have a case of the vapors.  My Logosmas wish has come true!
  • @Tectonthe promotion says you can hang the Logosmas stockings and Ironbeard will come and fill them with a variety of possible gifts. He will only do that once per stocking, yes? So it's luck on what item (or items) from the list you might get, with higher level stockings offering a higher chance for the more valuable stuff?

    That's my question too. While we've figured out it isn't filled on IG midnight, does it fill on Serenade, and is it only once, or multiple times (not including the gold/plat stockings)?

  • Which items are in which tiers?
    How many items appear in a stocking, and what are the chances of getting more items if it's only a chance to get additional items.
    What are the chances (in percent) of getting higher tier items for each stocking tier?
    What are the chances of each item appearing within their own tier?

  • TectonTecton The Garden of the Gods
    @Sarathai and @Melodie: Only filled once per stocking on the in-game midnight (or just after)

    The higher value giftbags will contain guaranteed higher value contents, so you don't need to worry about getting a more-expensive giftbag and getting less than your money's worth!

  • MelodieMelodie Port Saint Lucie, Florida
    Yup, just after I posted we noticed they had gotten filled after all. Wasn't on the midnight, but a bit after.

    Tiers probably wasn't the best term to use in the post, any stockings can contain any item, the higher tier stockings are more likely to get to the really expensive artefacts, and there's some failsafes in place so if you don't get all of the stocking's value the first time it tries to fill up, it'll keep adding item until it meets or exceeds the value of the giftbag. 
  • Does anyone know how much the 'Legion expand capacity' thing gives you?

  • MelodieMelodie Port Saint Lucie, Florida
    I believe it's just the ability to have one additional mine (so three), not a legion expansion.

    Also, if anyone happens to get the customised artefacts in their stocking (especially the vials), I would love to see their descs, either posted here or messaged! I'm exceptionally curious what kind of descriptions they are.

    Wait, so if we leave our full stockings hanging the prizes inside may change/increase in value?

    Two different things, but the legion expansion is now useful (if it's affordable) with the input of the extra mine artie.

  • SkyeSkye The Duchess Bellatere
    according to the issue enquiry I made, legion expansion is 200 bound credits for 100 extra troops. Which is extravagant.

    Nope, once it's filled, it's filled! When it fills for the first time, it'll loop through the fillup sequence until the expected value met/exceeded
  • Grand stockings cost $45. At $0.40/cr that comes out to about 112 credits (123 with Elite)

    Stocking 1: Prospector's guidebook. Value: Worth it, to me at least.
    Stocking 2: Alligator minipet, 1.4k gold: Value: Maybe 30-40cr
    Stocking 3: Runic vial (45cr), whetstone (16cr), rose thorn (10cr), various herbs. Value: 73cr
    Stocking 4: 25cr, Surcoat, some commodities. Value: 35cr
    Stocking 5: 1 mayan crown, rose thorn, 1.1k gold, some herbs. Value: 50cr

    I think the failsafe is bugged. 

    Other than this, I love this promo, the items are super cool and caters to just about everyone's tastes. 
  • @Grandue out of curiosity was that alligator minipet from a globe you got in the stocking or just a crate in the stocking itself?
  • @Lorielan it was in a crate

  • KasyaKasya Tennessee
    @Lorielan I got one in a crate as well. And thought it was amazing. Then gifted it. :)
  • @Tecton/@Sarapis/@Lorielan:

    What are the chances of making the stockings purchasable IG for absurd amounts of gold? Giving people who can't afford the chance to pay real money for them a chance to get them.

    Ideally the price would be very expensive, making the more cost effective way to get them still via the website and also taking huge chunks out of the current game gold amounts.

    Likely won't happen, but some other event (auction) that would lower credit prices would be nice.

    I would buy more stockings but it is bugged right now. I only got an average of 50% of the value of the stockings from all of my grand stockings. 
  • KayeilKayeil Washington State
    Has anyone gotten the lions yet? Maybe it's a higher tier prize, or maybe bugged?
    What doesn't kill you gives you exp.

    You open an extravagant stocking and find 20 credits, a featureless ice figurine, a prospector's guidebook, a prospector's guidebook, an ink-stained rose thorn, an ink-stained rose thorn, 1947 gold sovereigns, 345 gold sovereigns, 446 gold sovereigns, a group of 11 bloodroot leaves, a group of 12 pieces of rope, a group of 16 bloodroot leaves, a group of 25 bloodroot leaves, a group of 27 valerian leaves, and a group of 34 bloodroot leaves inside!
    Colour me unimpressed, especially since I don't do any mining. Would have preferred straight credits, in hindsight.

    Also, the guidebooks don't have a tradein value. Hope it's a good one when it gets added in.

    They'll be getting a trade-in value in the near future!

    Wow you got so much more stuff from your extravagant stocking than I did.

    You open an extravagant stocking and find Lesser Stone of Wonder and a group of 12 coal pieces inside!

    edit: If they were indeed bugged as Grandue said, do early purchasers like me get extra stockings in return? >_> I easily bought like 50 stockings. I'll be sad if I got gypped cause bug :(

    About nine minutes of near future, as it turns out. :)

  • @Tahquil You can buy the stockings from players.
  • So when exactly does language learning reset? It says "Try again next month." but I've worked out that that doesn't mean after the Serenade OR after the in-game month change. Does it actually just mean 25 Achaean days from your last lesson?
  • KasyaKasya Tennessee
    24 hours I think.
