It's finally here!
The results from my survey of what people got from their coffers.
First off, I'd like to thank all those who posted on the thread - http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...0103524&page=3 and especially thanks for staying on topic after the first attempt at this didn't work....

From your posts, I calculated the approximate chance of getting each reward from the coffer of whispers, here it is:

mini mallyx - 2% chance
armbrace - 1% chance
5 torment - 7% chance
5 stygian - 7%
5 margonite - 7%
5 titan - 7%
5 elixirs - 33%
5 scrolls - 20%
5 keys - 5%
5 rubies - 2%
5 saphires - 2%
5 diamonds - 2%
armor remnant - 5%

What does this mean? basically it means that gambling is bad for you......
On average, if you open many coffers, you will get approximately 65% of what you invest back. Meaning if you buy 20 coffers, using 20 gem sets, you will get back the equivalent of 13 gem sets.

So bottom line, do it only if you enjoy the gamble, there is nothing to be earned here.........

If you factor in Spardas' Armbraces, the percentage would be improved significantly.
