    I'm trying to remember where I read this, but I think they are normal vials and begin decaying when they run out.

    This is true, also if your pour them into another vial the original becomes a 150 month regular vial.

    That's honestly pretty sad. :/ I kinda thought it was the Shop of Wonders one.

    It is, the SoW one becomes non-artie too.


             Elixir of Epicurus - intelligence bonus.
          *NOTE: You are purchasing the elixir within the vial. Once the elixir has
                 been consumed the vial will decay as normal.

    I hate you so much right now.

    It's worse because you're five feet away from me. Resisting the urge to shake you senseless is killing me.

    [-(
    And I love too                                                                          Be still, my indelible friend
    That love soon might end                                                         You are unbreaking
    And be known in its aching                                                      Though quaking
    Shown in this shaking                                                             Though crazy
    Lately of my wasteland, baby                                                 That's just wasteland, baby

  • Talisman pieces can be sold for credits, though. I bought 15 gloves and came out with about 300 credits because of the pieces.

  • Yeah, looks like daeir actually came out way ahead and I'd one of the pretty lucky ones.

  • Brought 30 globes:
    125cr
    Bucket : handle and right
    Globe : top and bottom
    Whistle : top
    Ramshorn : fasteners
    tiger cub
    ivory dice x 2
    diamond vial
    lucky vial x 2
    ~150k gold
    90 betting tickets
    Lots of heron feathers
  • Now that's a good haul


  • So, I missed the posts here. Oops.

    I can say with 100% certainty that each of the pieces in a talisman in the set are equally weighted. For those curious, I ran some tests (100 sets of 1000 globes) a few days ago when it was mentioned that there seemed to be something up. The distribution is pretty much exactly what I'd expect.

    The issue you're seeing in the game at present is on day one there were some major bad (or good, depending on your perspective) luck for some people, who got a ton of certain pieces. This had the result that it pushed certain pieces into very high demand. Many of said pieces are actually being produced faster than a lot of the others (I hate to be the barer of bad news, but there were over 15 buckethandles used during the course of the last two days and globe tops are some of the most commonly generated pieces at the moment). Its a case of the excess of other pieces necessitating that people sell/use those pieces quickly at this point, not an issue of how many are generated.

    It was a situation we can account for if we run this again (by weighting the factor more depending on how many are in the game), as we're not dealing with large enough sample sizes to allow for the numbers to normalise themselves given the promotion time constraint. That said, I think you'd be surprised at how small the gap in quantity actually is, even with the initial bad luck.

    So, basically: "It's rare; I better use it or lose it!" --> use it/consume it --> Now it is actually (more) rare.

  • I made ~578 credits from 15 globes today, after selling and trading pieces and whatnot.

  • More racetrack tickets (had a 250cr win so far) horn piece, clouded leopard, 165k gold, 50cr, diamond vial, runic vial
  • I got one of the crystal spiderlings!

    Other than that just a few credits.

  • Another set of ivory dice. I swear. That's four in the last month and a half.
    They tradein for 33 (bound) credits though so better than a lot of globes, unless you desperarely need unbound credits.

    It really is. I'm almost sad that I ended up selling it, but seeing how much @Kayeil nearly squee'd over it made me happy  :D
