I know most of you will say 'never' is a best time to gach cuz its wasting MONEY. But for those who will spend money on gach, would you say that NOW is the best time to GACH because of all new chairs and the white scrolls they are giving out? I did 35 tickets of gach about 2 months ago and got about 80-100m worth of scrolls out of it. Not that impressed because i could just get GFAs off mts for $30 and get about 160-170m mesos. BUT, couple days ago i gached another 35 tickets and got 100% attack for wand, bloody rose chair, elemental staff 3, and a couple of weapon attack for shield. When i totalled my earnings from everything i got from this run, i added my earnings was 450m - 500m. This is clearly the best time to gach is it not? (of course i may have just got lucky too cuz i know some 100% scrolls are crap, 1%, 5% clean slate scrolls are crap too and getting an elemental wand 3 is rare).

there is no gacha event, it only appears that people have better luck when in reality more people are using tickets at once

I got a White Scroll at Mushroom Shrine the other day. I feel happy. But i won't gacha very often in the future... only during the event.

killerfan : there is no gacha event, it only appears that people have better luck when in reality more people are using tickets at once i may be wrong but even so they've added new gach items and new gach is worth alot.

Not really. The BloodyRose and WorldEnd chairs prices are deflating fast cuz it's really common to get the chair. The 100% Wand Scrolls and Claw Scrolls are in high demand altho. I've seen them go for 170m a piece.

It seems to be a very good time to gach. However my friend did get a load of crap from 11 tickets today. If you ask me, I'd spend real money on it. I may regret it after, but really, who says money doesn't buy happiness? If I had a bil or something, I'd be so happy to walk around and give it away. I'd do fun events with it like Pet Park race, etc (Jump quests ftw). Besides, the time people spend on MS can be very high, mines for example is 3k+ hours. Thats over 2 hours a day EVERYDAY since BETA. I've never been rich (blew it all scrolling, for something who's played so long, he sure doesn't learn his lesson). I could've spent say 2.9k hours and the other 100 hours working at McDonalds or sumthin (Smuggle my sweet n sour sauce! ) and make $6/hr = $600. Car Gas / Presents, Pleasure Toys, Etc.. Chop that $600 in half, so $300. Take the nx:mesos rate of roughly 1k nx = 7m (its more like 8m but I'm cheap) That makes 2.1bil. Sorry about that, just wanted to share my experience and point of view. Maple really does get boring sometimes. However, with friends, there absolutely will be some non-regretable good times. So, it's a nice time to gach, since there are new additions. Go ahead, especially if you got a job n seek some temporary fun. Edit: I'm missing the point, gach is a gamble and will not guarantee 2.1bil. Still, that doesn't change my story . If you're spending a lot, go ahead and gacha. If not, you may want to consider buying the common mts food, gfa scrolls, for mesos. Also take into account, can you handle it if you get crap? If you can, go for it. If you can't, don't gach.
