Okay, so I'm planning on gacha'ing 22 tickets tomorrow and only 22. If you were in my shoes, which would you pick? I'm debating whether I want to take the risk in making it big with white scrolls and ele. wands [NLC] or play it safe with a relatively decent payout [Shrine]. All help is appreciated. It would be great if you could also posts reasons [statistics, etc. lol] Ty (:

uhm..i don't read every thread on basil..i barely read any at all..i only read chat section and my threads.. i was asking a simple question and you didn't have to be bloody rude about it edit: and for the record, it could just be that more and more people are gacha'ing at nlc more frequently, not the percentage of white scroll payout changing -.-

CupRamen said: "wow are u this empty-headed/ ? i know u've been on basil and on basil it clearly shows tat white scrolls have been appearing more frequently. use ur brain tat is if you have one." You should stop trying to start stupid flame wars with your dumb answers. Go back to school, learn some proper grammar, and then come back and try to flame. To the TS: Try NLC, imo its really worth it

I say NLC. Why? Because if you get a white scroll (huge chance with 22 tickets, heck, you might get more than 1) it'd be a MASSIVE pay-out. Like 200m+ in Windian price. o_o Maybe less for Scania. Also, Ele-wands are 800mil on basil (due to the rising number of Lukless Bishops) which is even better. Shrine has PACs, true, but they aren't worth as much anymore, unless you get super lucky on a 3 att/4 att.

wow, really cupramen, hes asking a question you dont have to be mean. first of why would you even reply with something that is not going to help them at all. ok and yes white scrolls are appearing more often because of the ongoing event, duhhh cup maybe u should go on nexon.net before you say something stupid. This is what i would do, just to be safe save like 5 scrolls for shrine but go for NLC with the rest.

Ty for all three of your input. (: I guess I'm leaning more towards NLC. But does a white scroll pay out that frequently (1 in 22 or more often)? O_o I've always thought people get all those white scrolls by mass gacha'ing... Same goes for ele. wands...

no... this is all wrong -.- the chance of getting more than 1 white scroll in 22 and only 22 tickets isn't really that high. You may get one, 2 at most if you are lucky with this amount of tickets. I did a 39 tickets run today. Got... 1 white scroll and all the rest were crappy equips. Shrine = scrolls, scrolls are inflated now... so... the more you do in shrine, the better profit you can make if you aren't lucky to get like several white scrolls in a row. The massive white scrolls and ele wands are from mass gach or really lucky people who can get like 5 in a row.

Exactly what ArthurSam said, and the chances of you getting power elixers and pumkin pies from the nlc chance are pretty high. Atleast 3 of your tickets will come out as them...

I guess Shrine is safe...but would 22 tickets at NLC be a huge risk?

NLC is just evil i got all crappy equips and 10/35 tickets were just pots.... D: i got 1 white scroll out of 35 tickets go with shrine because everybody is gaching at nlc for white scrolls and that means fewer people at shrine so not as many scrolls which means more money for them go shrine

I gached 11 times in nlc and got 6 power elixers, 2 pies, and 3 crappy equips you can buy at an npc.. (gachapwned) Then 20 seconds later i see 5 announcements of people getting white scrolls and i just got pissed. Then i bought 3 more gach tix and gached at zipangu and got 3 scrolls and sold it for 15mil. Still gachapwned but better then nlc. NLC is risky =/
